Aerial Magic - Season I by Ari North

4.0

Ps: this Webtoon is not officially finished, just put on a hiatus. However, the author isn't planning on picking it up in the near future, if ever, so I'm setting this to "read", until there'll be updates of a continuation! So far, there are 2 seasons; last episode of s2 has been posted in August 2019 and the announcement of the hiatus in February 2020.

My thoughts about s1 and s2:
I love magic and witches, so this was the reason I picked it up in the first place. Also - big reason - the cover shows a lesbian couple, so I definitely subscribed!
The art amazed me right away, in the first episode. It fits the story so, so well and I really can't get enough of it. So beautiful and gorgeous!!
The second thing I liked immediately was the protagonist's familiar – a talking crow, with awesome humor. She has the familiar because she can't read (disability) and that's also another thing – disabilities have nice representation!
I thought at first the cover shows the protagonist with the owner of the shop (Cecily) and I really really wouldn't want to get all the cliches, but luckily, they never came! Because, guess what, I'm blind and didn't realize that the cover image doesn't show the protagonist, but instead another character that will be introduced in the middle of season 1! Phew. should get my eyes checked maybe, lol-

Anyways, I could tell you way more about what I liked, but i don't want to spoiler. Read it for yourself! Ngl, I'm mostly recommending it because of the art and the queerness, but the story is also good, trust me! I like the matters discussed in season 2 the most, but I can also definitely relate to lots of in season 1.

I hope the author ever decides to pick the series up again, but I'd understand if not. I wrote a whole a** long comment on the last episode about that on Webtoon... you can read that there if you want.
