Maria the Virgin Witch

Maria the Virgin Witch, published by Kazé Manga in 2016–2017, adapts the medieval-set story of a powerful young witch whose refusal to use her abilities for war draws the ire of heaven itself. Across three issues, this manga series explores themes of faith, free will, and the cost of pacifism in a time of conflict. Best known for its thoughtful take on a classic magical-girl premise, it stands as a compact, character-driven tale that questions the nature of divine authority.
