Synopsis

Aspiring little sorceress Ran Uruma feels frustrated as she frantically searches for her favorite pair of shoes. Despite her being just an elementary school child, those particular shoes allow her to transform into the body of an adult. Ran teems with magical potential but has yet to learn how to control it. Knowing this, her beast sorcerer brother, Jin, hides the shoes until she completes cleaning their house.

Ran's mother, Shizuka, is one of the most powerful sorceresses to exist and must live far from home to look after the city. Head of their family and all sorcerers, Zen is also often away attending business and has to leave Jin in charge of the household. Ran can be quite difficult to handle, and only a single pair of eyes is not enough to keep tabs on her every mischief. With the freedom she gets while no one is restricting her, Ran explores the magical abilities that drive her toward many fascinating adventures.

Ran and the gray world is the story about a little girl who has an extraordinary amount of magic. Its a slice of life series however there is a story here as well.

Now some of the characters fell flat and the main romance was.. weak. The series did almost everything well. The ...

I don't understand why the score is so much higher than I think it should be. if it's because of the art, yeah I would say the art is far better than I expected and I like it a lot. but the thing is, when I read this manga it feels like nothing. the story itself feel rushed and the conflict isn't interesting at all. it's just about a child who can change her appearance into a grown-up adult, then she meets a typical playboy who becomes interested in her. then, the man turns into an antagonist because he is infected by an insect. like, ...

The manga has a beautiful art, a very interesting concept and some likeable characters, but it's literally impossible to ignore the elephant on the room, I'm not exaggerating, I felt really uncomfortable and disgusted reading that groomer being treated as a somewhat good person and the protagonist's real ...
