⭐️ Hardcover Edition

When you hear the word 'witch,' you probably have a scary image in mind, right?

However, the witches in this book are a little playful and cute.

From gluttonous and opportunistic to tsundere-like, there is a whole lineup of witches with various personalities.

There are plenty of unexpected things, like how burnt cupcakes—a failure for humans—are the ultimate feast for witches, or how a quack doctor for humans is a brilliant physician for witches.

It would be fun if witches like these lived in the neighborhood.
