I guess 8ha7na5ko3san ("Hanako-san") is Hannah.

The pile of bodies really soured me on this one.

ayo

There's at least half a dozen dead bodies in her house, some of them fresh. If she invites guests over without cleaning up, she's going to need those mind control spells. I am willing to guess there are serious limits to magic and good reasons why her mentor/parent discouraged her from leaving.

I am a sucker for the "young naive idiot goes out to meet the world for the first time despite a disturbing background" trope.

RIP to those two Paranormal YouTubers at the start, they made the ultimate sacrifice to bring us Witch Yuri

A cameo by Jake and Logan Paul, hoping to "accidentally" find and film another body. Oh well.

Wow, I was just discussing this in Sal Jiang's other forum. Glad to see it here so soon! This seems perfect for the Halloween season :)
Edit: With the number of characters shown on the cover page, I have a feeling this series is going to be a long and interesting one.

It's chapter 1.

No one knows which direction it's going to take, unless you're in the author's head.

Holyshit more Sal Jiang!
Also that witch is cute as fuck!
Thanks for the translation!

aren’t the tags decided before that? like you can’t say a manga is shoujo and suddenly is not half way through! so that’s way i was ??? if there will be no romance since there is no romance tag, tho i do expect actual yuri any way :3 since i do trust the author

Looking forward for the next chapters! I'm already liking this one!

Some tags are set at post time, but they can evolve.

If you want to suggest the tag "romance" for the series, you can.

But, a manga like Black & White, by the same author, had the tag "Yuri", but not "Romance", for obvious reasons.

So, it's better to err on the side of "wait and see".

Cute! It'd be funny if the unconsious/dead woman became a real character

Sal Jiang, huh? On a scale from AyaHiro to Black & White, how wholesome vs. toxic is this one going to be, I wonder?..

Hmm I was iffy about the art style on the cover but its seems to be okay?

I know I should suspend my disbelief but I really have to wonder how she figured out how to make an account and so instantly got an international following...

I can help but notice that the first account that followed her is named 8ha7na5ko3san and I can't help but wonder if a certain ghost might make an appearance. I also wonder if those numbers have any significance I'm missing.

I'm guessing that that Hanako = the Hana on the last page = the purple-hair chick on the title page (Note that Hana's hair is completely covered and she has the same tiny irises) = the other half of our yuri pair. Time will tell whether she's the Hanako-san. Makes me wonder whether we're getting a story of two supernatural beings trying to fit into society, perhaps with different goals, or maybe our clueless Sada getting close to equally-clueless occultist human Hanako and the latter dragging the former around introducing her to her interests without knowing she's a real witch. Or something. Excited for whatever Jiang is cooking.

I don't think she did. She appears to have stolen the identity of the woman who died of the heart attack in her cave, and is now posting under her social media accounts. They look somewhat similar, and it's only been a day or so since the switch, so her relatives and friends probably did not have time to realize what happened.

Probably the greatest accomplishment of their lives.

but what happened to her two mice friends lol

New Sal Jiang manga and it's got some supernatural shenanigans? Count me in. Also based on the title spread it feels like Sal Jiang keeps putting a single black character in their series, and each time the character becomes a little more plot relevant lmao

i mean it does say "In Woman x Woman we trust!" in the blurb on the title page so i think we're probably good

Yeah and the tags are based on the uploader's knowledge, plus user suggestions. Dynasty is a fan upload website and not offical. As far as I know it's as you said Nya-chan, we can only tag the work based on chapter 1. It's so far got a witch getting up to shenanigans, so "witch" and "comedy" work, Sal Jiang writes lesbian characters in I think all of her works so "Yuri" is also a safe bet. Now we just need to see what direction the story goes so we can add more tags.

Also a story can progress into romance half way through, that's not even uncommon or rare lol

Hmm I was iffy about the art style on the cover but its seems to be okay?

Definitely a moment of agree to disagree for me. In my opinion Sal Jiang's works can be a little too toxic with the writing, but I pretty much always love her art at the very least.

I checked out the tags on the page for the raws and those are some interesting tags. (This is though Google TL)

Female
Battle/Action
Yuri
Female protagonist
Modern
Friendship/Companions
