Do you believe in magic?

AN-NA-RA-SU-MA-NA-RA

And... the great Ilkwon Ha does it again!! POW!

Or rather he already did it but I didn't read his works in chronological order hehe.

The official Summary of Annarasumanara: Yun Ai wanted to be a magician when she was little. But now in reality, she is a high school student who cannot even afford new stockings. Since the day she met a real magician at a fair, she desperately wants to follow her dream.

I have to say I really admire his style. It was such a short manhwa but the characters he created and the experiences he gave them were so real that it didn't even matter. He really does have a premise/theme and really focuses on it. If he didn't then it wouldn't be so touching. It wouldn't have such meaning.

But it really did have a huge impact. This manhwa obviously talks about dreams as you can tell from the summary. A lot of comics that are targeted at children are very unrealistic when it comes to dreams. They say things like "follow your heart" which is too vague to be very good instruction. But Annarasumanara tells it how it is. It portrays the reality of life as well as the magic. It displays the good and the bad of both following your dream and sticking to a career you might not necessarily want to do.

One of the comments said that this manhwa should be available to all parents and children so they can develop a better understanding. I of course wholeheartedly agree and while it is available it isn't prominent enough. But of course the flaws in the education system are many and that is an argument better left for another time.

Ilkwon Ha's works really are inspiring. This one was more poetic and artistic than the others, but lacked the comedy of the others. I highly recommend this - 10/10.

If you've read it and want to discuss feel free to comment ^^
