The Family Circumstances of the Irregular Witch

The Family Circumstances of the Irregular Witch (Japanese: でこぼこ魔女の親子事情, Hepburn: Dekoboko Majo no Oyako Jijō) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Piroya. It was originally a one-shot published in Flex Comix's Comic Meteor website in July 2018, before being serialized in the same website since July 2019. An anime television series adaptation produced by A-Real aired from October to December 2023.

Plot

A petite-figured witch named Alyssa, who has been living by herself in the forest, finds an abandoned human baby. She decides to raise the baby, naming her Viola. 16 years later, Viola has become much taller than her adoptive mother, so much so that people mistakenly believe she is Alyssa's mother. The story follows the unusual daily lives of Alyssa, Viola, and the people around them.
