@michael_w_busch Oh I have to add that anytime people say anything about that other famous wizard boarding school series, I advocate for them to read Witch Hat Atelier.
It is many things: a biting critique of knowledge systems, a reflection on healthcare and disability, a gorgeously drawn metatext on drawing as an art.
But what I love most about it is that every page is filled with kindness. Kindness drives the main cast to do great things, and kindness is the lens in which the characters view their world.
It's lovely. (And a new volume came out a few days ago!)
