-"Mijuku na Mahoutsukai to Boku" is a precious 60-year coming-of-age story about the changing relationship between a tomboy witch master and her scarecrow familiar, me. It begins with a scene where the 6-year-old master tells me that she will teach me many things since I can't speak yet, and then the roles are reversed, with me taking care of the master, listening to her gush about her boyfriend, going to a tapioca shop with the 60-year-old master, and depicting me remaining by her side as she grows older.
