On a surface level this was a cute story of a girl with overwhelming magic that accidentally curses her father and needs to reconnect with an old friend to save him.  

It was an enjoyable story with cute moments that made me think of a studio ghibli movie, but without the world building and the polish. 

I finished it wishing there were more throughout the tale.  More world building, more character development, more about the magic,  the family,  more tension.  It'd make a cute movie or show that can expand upon all the flaws.
