Summary

Makoto Kowata is a fifteen-year-old witch who has come to Aomori for her training, and her familiar, a black cat named Chito, is always by her side. She lodges with her relatives, the Kuramotos, and lives slow, full days with her cousin Kei, who is about her age, and her younger cousin Chinatsu. Volume 7 of Flying Witch continues the series' everyday rhythm: around the time her older sister Akane returns from her travels, they must find a "curse-breaking medicine" to restore the fortune-teller Inukai, who turns into a dog by day, to his true form—but the ingredients are so rare that they have to be gathered in France and Antarctica. At an Aomori festival, an uninvited guest who calls herself "the herald who brings summer" comes to apologize and presents a box of sweets so hard they cannot be bitten into. The magic is still nothing special, and the troubles are still neither too big nor too small, but Makoto and her friends make life warm and flavorful through eating, chatting, and all sorts of little mishaps. This is the seventh volume of the series.

Editor's review

这是一部把“魔法”当作生活调味品的漫画。别人家的魔女故事讲的往往是战斗、宿命和神秘组织，石塚千寻偏偏写一个只会飞一飞、路还认不清的少女，把她放进青森四季轮转、景物分明的风景里。第7卷一方面延续了这种低烈度的温馨基调（祭典、点心、日常笑料），另一方面又用“解咒药”这条线索，让茜的全球旅行带出一点小小冒险感。画风干净，分镜平稳，笑点多是生活化的，不靠夸张表情堆砌。东立版由张绍仁翻译，繁体中文的语感顺口，适合在某个安静的晚上随手翻几页，看完会觉得连空气都变慢了一点。

Reading tips

  1. 它属于轻松小品，适合一话一话地慢慢读，不建议一口气连读好几卷
  2. 读之前可先看第1卷或动画，熟悉真琴、仓本家与犬养的关系
  3. 注意画面里的食物、季节和场景细节，这是本作乐趣的一大半
  4. 若对繁体中文版有顾虑，可留意是否有其他中文版本对照阅读

FAQ

这一册是整本还是系列中的一册？ 是《飞翔的魔女》系列的第7册单行本，东立2019年出版的繁体中文版，ISBN为9789572620038，并不包含整套书的内容。
没读过前面几卷能直接看第7卷吗？ 基本可以。本作是单元式日常故事，每话独立性较强；但先了解真琴寄住仓本家、犬养白天会变成狗等基本设定，会更顺畅。
这套漫画和2016年动画是什么关系？ 动画改编自石塚千寻原作的同名漫画，原作在讲谈社《别册少年Magazine》连载，漫画内容在动画之后仍有大幅延续。
为什么目录一栏是空的？ 目前能核实到的中文版信息里并没有逐话目次，为避免臆造章节名称，这里不做填写。
