The bad guys in this story have a major addiction to to spilling out information. It's somewhat permissible for setting up the first chapter but at this point this is starting to get a little ridiculous. Every chapter EVERY CHAPTER a bad dude just starts yapping like they're in charge of the narration.

I like that the magic tools are risky for the bad guys to use. It was already established in the first chapter with the portal magic that kills anything living that tries to go through it. It's imperfect and fits their gimmick of trying to take and control power that doesn't belong to them. Plus it prevents them from just being the same as mages while still being able to pose supernatural threats to the MC.

I think its would be the usual cause of "head of resistance is most insane lunatic(s) that will throw everyone under the buss, but subordinates are somewhat fine"

Also outside of everyone but protagonist being comically inconcompetent is getting stale, its my only real issue with this manga right now.

It reads more like Nona fucked around and experimented with magic because she was "safe" with her mother while Miramira spent her whole life terrified of ever using it, so one's better at using it than the other. Sinking magic has some obvious uses to it that'll probably come up later provided she doesn't kick the bucket within the next 5-10 chapters.

They had no problem with Lancia turning 12 Bureau dudes into sliced ham, and dicing a ton of buildings nearby in the process, no doubt killing more we never saw, yet we're not supposed to think she's some monster. I guarantee Nona's gonna be forced to kill someone within 20 chapters.

At least it serves a purpose of showing that the nazis are using magic items without full understanding of the risks. At least the chump middle managers, like suddenly handing a town sheriff a bunch of grenades immediately after they were invented claiming "yeah, they'll totally kill any rowdy criminal" with "you might wanna stand back" as the only warning.

>>283562432
I'm not banking on a comically evil resistance head. More like one that doesn't care for collateral damage. I'm expecting something like one of the resistance mages or even Miramira killing human sympathizers or something out of haste with the justification "they'll be killed and we'll be blamed anyways. It's us or them, now."

Lovi was also a massive enabler and confidant, allowing her to experiment with low-impact magic even more. She probably has a very good grasp on subtle tricks, but is a ways off of COMBing through armies.

Her gravity magic has so many possibilities. Just making their clothes heavy is enough if you can't do it on people.

Oh you've went and done it, now that I think about it more, it opens ridiculous amount of uses/implications.
If that's simply needle tightening by moving, her pull/impact should be enough to literally rip people apart by sewing trough them.
If she can control her her tether length within a segment to create a pull - she can essentially chop people with that. That's at the very least instant suffocation if used on the neck. Now pair that with absolute ridiculous speed we've seen her sew in the last chapter.

So it won't be a difficult guess to tell that the lockhead here is made out of witch with lock powers.
Which causes an interesting plot question: so far all magic we've seen is heavily specialised. Its not a Howgards where you can learn various spells or maybe create something custom. So what exactly created this thing then?
We either has some fucked up reanimation witch on the military side, or third party that has another non-"magic" power that allows them to fleshcraft.
It does not exactly explain teleporting guns either. Was there also random space-time abomination just chilling somewhere that nobody really minded or mentioned before, like our lockhead? Or do magical tools will simply have a remote use function with abominations all stuffed in some lab?

Actually that's also curious. Honestly calling it "magic" tastes really weird when we are talking about basic bitch shounen "one trick" powers like devil fruits/zanpaktous.

I think it'll be like Kagurabachi or JJK, every mage has their born specialty magic, but very basic applications can be done like her mother flying on the broom.

In the Oneshot Merrily has basic healing magic, enough to stabilize herself after she's shot, and Nona here hasn't made a big deal about being shot in the arm, but I reckon Mira-Mira was told to apply some first aid when they captured Nona.

You're right with regards to animanga, but weirdly enough I don't think this distinction exists much among people who read and write western literature. For them, especially the authors, it's just "magic systems". It could be incredibly specialized, or incredibly broad. It could have distinct name within the setting, or just literally be called "magic". But in western literature it's all just magic.

Since I like both I always think of things like chakra/jutsu in Naruto, Zanpakutō and Kido in Bleach, Alchemy in FMA, and even Devil Fruits as magic systems. Yet somehow that doesn't feel appropriate to a lot of people when discussing anime and manga.

It's a case of being overly faithful to Japanese. "That's my mother's name" would be more natural in English, but Japanese has a lot of instances where it doesn't use pronouns like English does and sticks the name in there instead. Evident if you watch anything subbed, lots of instances where the VAs say [character name] but the subs just use you/he/she because repeating character names isn't appropriate in English. The line with the name in it sounds natural to Japanese audiences and here the translator chose to stay close to it. Maybe they shouldn't have, but decades of people screeching about adaptations being bad will do that.

It was clearly made out of someone, but not necessarily the lock mage. They'd presumably need him/her alive to make tools (otherwise, why elsw is it so important to capture living magi?) - making her the guardian too is counterproductive especially if she gets killed like this. What would happen to all the rest of the magic locks? Do they stop working?

I think she was about to say it, but the sewing classes request shifted it from a casual conversation to something of higher commitment with risk of being found out.

Giving the daughter the quality/skill of "seamstress" could shift the sewing classes request to the daughter instead, and if she made something worse than the bag, that would bring into question the whole narrative. Just needless stress.

Especially if she starts using knots. A slip knot could easily be used to disembowel someone and then untie itself in the process. She could also tear limbs out of their sockets by sewing a knot around someone's wrist or ankle and then using the excess thread to pull their arm/leg around themselves until it pops off. Or she could slip the needle up under someone's rib cage and then tie a knot around their heart. Lots of possibilities if she gets creative.

She doesn't need that, even at her current level.

Mass doesn't affect gravitatuonal pull - a boulder falls at the same rate as a pebble. But mass DOES affect force. Anything she can pick up and throw (or drop from above) can be given the force of a cannonball, and the smaller size means the force is less spread out and will mince any body it hits. Even if her level of control isn't that high yet, she can probably make something weigh enough that it could shatter bones. Mira2 just needs the guts to go that far.

anon they killed a civilian in public for not complying with their threats EARLIER, if anything the rape would give a bit of realism, realism that btw was very absent on the first chapter since the city was quite clean, and we a saw a single mother in a very pretty and big house with her daughter, like why??? we saw that the government is fucked up as such common people should be living in commie blocks or favelas with hunger being and drugs being a constant not in nice european houses in clean cities with healthy looking people

Don't think about it too much, anon.
The reason why this manga doesn't bring up rape scene or any sexual topic at all is simply because Lin and Hakuri wants this manga to be as marketable as possible to the widest range of audiences from grade schoolers to their grandmothers.

The government is fucked up regarding witches, the rest of society seems to be working normally with exception of some edgecases.
I don't think everything needs to be mudcore just to represent that oppression, that's more like taking cues from post-apocalyptic or cyberpunk genres, but this here is basically just witch-hunting from the 14 to 18 centuries, probably closer to that later era in terms of aesthetics.

If Witchriv was serialized in Magazine Pocket instead, we would have gotten some delicious rape scenes already. A witch hunt setting is a perfect setup for this kink.

Ok but why she has two thunder clouds floating around her head? Is she going to use some discharge attacks?

one last bump, I'm really glad we got the magic system we got over Meririariariri or whatever the oneshot's called's soft undefined magic system beyond staying calm.
