Oct 03, 2023The artwork of Rona is as detailed as the setting and story. There is much about Alpi's adventures that will seem familiar to Magical Girl fans, from the general look to the character types. There is more unique than not, however, and genre enthusiasts would do well to check this out, as would anyone looking for a good All Ages Manga for their young readers. Read Full Review

Nov 09, 2023I went into this story thinking it was going to be more of a cutsy, magical girl story based on the description, but it was much darker than I anticipated and it reminded me more of Princess Mononoke than Tokyo Mew Mew. There are some really heartbreaking moments in this story for Alpi in terms of the choices she has to make, but also how hard her "job" is on her body. This falls more in line with a darker fantasy story and, while still good for elementary audiences, is not as carefree and has something to say about making difficult choices, living in harmony with our environment, and helping one another.
