All A Witch Wants

Spoiler Review!  

I glance over the reviews again and can't help but notice the overwhelming praise for what I consider to be a disaster of a manga. This manga closely mirrors the original it shamelessly imitates, another failed attempt at leveraging tragic events to evoke pity and "meaning" for its characters within this so-called "story."  

Story: 2/10  

I've already provided a fairly detailed analysis of the original's story, so I won't repeat myself here. There isn't much of a story here—just a framework into which one tragedy after another is poured.  

The plot begins with Reina, her mother, and her daughter. Reina's boyfriend suggests breaking up when she mentions that she was raped and has a child. Reina is now heartbroken. Reina's mother ends up in the hospital due to overworking herself. Reina's child falls down the stairs and becomes blind as a result. Reina struggles to find a job because she dropped out of high school. She turns to sex work. Reina makes a friend! But soon, she becomes a target of the boss at the sex shop. Reina is forced into an S&M situation against her will. Her friend comes to her rescue, hitting the boss with a fire extinguisher and telling her to flee. Reina runs to her boyfriend's house. Her boyfriend apologizes for leaving her and agrees to stay and help raise her child. Reina mentions her friend is in trouble with the boss. Her boyfriend rushes off to help. The boyfriend gets shot in the head by the boss. Reina wonders why her boyfriend is taking so long. She finds him with a bullet hole in his forehead. Reina is devastated. She is then kept as an S&M sex doll by the boss. Yoshiyuki, from the original manga, appears and tells the manager of the sex shop he wants to save Reina. Reina is being held captive, so Yoshiyuki throws smoke grenades (yes, he actually does this) into the boss's house in an attempt to rescue her. Reina is seen as a hollow version of her former self, and Yoshiyuki hugs her as the boss approaches with a gun aimed at Yoshiyuki. Reina shoots at the boss after Yoshiyuki punches him, but the bullet hits Yoshiyuki instead. Reina is now under Yoshiyuki's care (though it remains unclear what happened to the boss and his goons who imprisoned her). The end!  

Tl;dr Essentially, the story revolves around Reina and the endless misfortunes she experiences. That's all.  

Art: 5/10  

Standard shoujo art style. Nothing particularly good or bad about it.  

Character: 2/10  

Reina is nothing more than a magnet for tragedy, while Yoshiyuki serves as her knight in shining armor. Everyone else is merely a collection of irrelevant plot devices used to perpetuate Reina's tragic life.  

Enjoyment: 2/10  

I find it amusing how the boss goes around killing people, holding a girl with a family hostage, and somehow manages to evade capture. The lack of believability in this manga is absurdly bad.  

Overall: 2/10  

In summary, this manga is just as much of a disaster as the original. While you might momentarily justify giving it anything above a 4/10, an objective look reveals its numerous flaws and overall mediocrity.

You absolutely must read 'Deep Love: Ayu no Monogatari' and 'Deep Love Host' to truly understand the concept and the sorrow behind this manga's ending.  

After going through 'Deep Love: Ayu no Monogatari' to this point, I genuinely wouldn’t have anticipated such a dramatic shift in events. However, the most frustrating aspect of "Deep Love" was its heavy focus on death. Yes, I get that they aimed to keep it realistic, but it felt overwhelming at times. On the bright side, each volume provides a continuous explanation for the main characters’ arcs, which is appreciated.  

That said, what I truly loved about the "Deep Love" manga series is how all the stories interconnect seamlessly. This is unlike many other mangas I’ve read where the plot skips years without much explanation, leaving gaps. Here, everything feels cohesive and well-thought-out.

If you've read my review for Deep Love Ayu no Monogatari, you might notice some similarities.  
Deep Love Reina no Unmei is undoubtedly the saddest and most tragic of them all. It narrates the story of Reina, who is a friend, lover, and mother. The artwork is impressive, and while there aren't many characters, the limited cast perfectly suits this brief manga. It's a fast read, yet an incredibly difficult one to get through emotionally. If you're searching for a happy manga, I highly recommend turning back before diving into this one. However, if you believe you can endure it, I strongly urge you to give it a read!

When it says that her boyfriend dumped her, he actually didn't. "Deep Love - Reina no Unmei" tells the story of a teenage mother. She loves her daughter, cares for her boyfriend, and has what seems like a great life.

Story: 10/10
I absolutely loved this story. It is indeed very tragic, so if you're only into rainbows and sunshine, I'd recommend reading something else. This narrative beautifully portrays happiness, family relationships, and the struggles of life. Hey, it even resonates with some real-life pregnant teens out there.

Art: 10/10
The art style feels strikingly familiar. It effectively captures the expressions of the characters and includes some intimate scenes in certain parts. These scenes can make the characters appear either unattractive or beautiful. I just have to say, I love the art!

Characters: 9/10
Reina is cheerful, caring, and loving towards others. She's friendly and outgoing, always trying her best to please people. However, I must point out that she seems a bit... naive. Why would you choose to become a prostitute when you could work at McDonald's? But overall, I admit her life is quite sad.

Enjoyment: 10/10
This story gave me a newfound respect for dramas. Typically, I dislike tragedies and dramas, but this one truly touched my heart with its compelling narrative.

Overall: 10/10
In conclusion, I thoroughly enjoyed the manga, and I'm confident you might too. If you appreciate tragic romances and family struggles, you'll likely enjoy this.

The story is great so far! Your first few chapters really hooked me and it's very well-written. Just be mindful that you tend to shift from present tense to past tense a lot - just stick to one tense. Other than that it's an awesome book. Keep it up author :)

I'm interested to see how the story progresses. It is intriguing.

The man is so cruel and mean. I really don't understand Avery. She seems like an intelligent person but she is a pushover unfortunately. I'll keep reading though, hoping she becomes fierce and kicks his ass.
