A Cat from Our World and the Forgotten Witch Vol. 1 by Hiro Kashiwaba
lighthearted
medium-paced
3.75
In this isekai manga, a cat from Earth is summoned into a fantasy world by an older witch with a tragic backstory. The witch is annoyed that the "guardian beast" she summoned seems very lazy and doesn't follow orders, while the cat is confused about its new surrounding and dislikes the food it's being offered. Through book one, pieces of their respective histories are revealed, and they begin to trust each other. The art is very cute and the story is very silly; I'm not sure how deep the cat and witch's relationship can really become if they are never able to verbally communicate. (Also, I found it a little unbelievable that the cat did not try to eat the witch since she is the size of a mouse in comparison, but I realize I need to suspend my disbelief). I will probably continue on with the series to see what happens next.
