Okay I need to know what happens next! I really enjoyed this story and the artwork was very detailed and well done. I loved the colors and how it was made super clear who was a witch and who was a vampire.

Morgana is a sweet, clumsy witch who means well and Oz is a grumpy vampire — the grumpy part might be largely to do with being turned into a cat though. Their dynamic is cute and I love that they grow on each other. They wouldn’t be able to get to know each other like this if Morgana didn’t accidentally turn Oz into a cat at their first meeting.

I will say I was confused in the beginning because the story does pick up in what feels like the middle of things but that didn’t bother me. I expect we’ll get more background information in the upcoming volumes and I look forward to learning why the leader of the Red Vampire Clan hates Morgana’s family so much. And also what the cliffhanger is all about?? Overall it’s a fun, cozy, colorful fantasy with rival witch and vampire clans who are on the brink of a war with each other thanks to a negotiation meeting gone wrong. I look forward to seeing what’s in store next for Morgana and Oz and the rest of the characters.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC from Wattpad WEBTOON Book Group, WEBTOON Unscrolled via NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This was a really fun story between a family of witches and a vampire clan. More specifically, Morgana from the family of witches, and Oz from the Red Vampire Clan.

The story does a good job of quickly filling the reader in on what is happening when we first meet the two different groups. There is a history between them, and things are tense.

Morgana is still struggling with her magic and because of a mishap, misses the dinner where everything goes wrong. While cleaning up her mess, she meets Oz, a vampire stationed outside the house, and their adventure together begins.

This is a graphic novel full of beautiful artwork and a spellbinding story. It captured my attention quickly and left me eager to find out what will happen in the volumes to come.

Title: Morgana and Oz Volume One By Miyuli

Release Date: September,24th 2024

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Stars

“Morgana and Oz” tells the story of Morgana, a witch from a long line of magic practitioners, and Oz, a vampire from a rival clan. When their paths cross by chance, sparks fly, but their budding romance is threatened by the longstanding animosity between their two factions.

After a mishap involving Morgana's magic turns Oz into a cat, the two must navigate their feelings for each other while also preventing an all-out war between their coven and clan.

This paranormal romance remixes the timeless Romeo and Juliet saga with a sprinkle of magic, a dash of humor, and a forbidden love twist!

I truly enjoyed this first instalment. A great start to the series.

I received this book in exchange for an honest review via Netgalley.

Morgana and Oz Vol 1 is a cozy fantasy graphic novel with a cute plotline following our itchy witch Morgana and the Vampire she gets saddled with after a crazy turn of events. The illustrations were really good, the detail, the colors, depiction of scenes- all A+. Some of the facial scenes were a tab bit extra (but that's just my personal preference)

My main bone of contention comes from the vague details concerning 60% of the book, I love when books throw us mid-scene, but I also kinda want some clarification midway so I can fully engross myself into the story. I kept waiting for things to be cleared up regarding the feud, the witch and vamp structure, holes in the plotline, etc. I will say the minimalism allowed the cuteness of the characters to shine, but a bit more context would have been stellar. Also, the watermark made it slightly difficult to read it because it was splayed across the page but I tried not to let that both me too much

Thank you to the author Miyuli, WebToon Wattpad, and NetGalley for providing me with an arc in exchange for an honest review. You can check out more of my reviews on IG @jessicareadsit

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this arc. WOW what a cute story. I really enjoyed the cozy fantasy vibe I got. The art is well done. The story is fast paced and intriguing. I can’t wait to see what happens next to our witch and vampire.

I unfortunately just couldn't get into this one. It just throws you into the middle of things with no explanation, leaving my confused the whole time. What I could see of the artwork was cute.

Thanks to NetGalley for providing an ARC of this title in exchange for an honest review.
This series has potential, but I'm sad that I saw all of that potbetial in the last handful of pages. The story starts off in the middle of something and we're not really given background information. While this can be done well, this book sort of muddles through that device making it frustrating at times to read. The lack of explanation for the world or the power systems or really anything for a first book in a series is shocking.
The characters are a little archetypal, but not too off putting. The art is gorgeous in still frames, the scenery is often amazing and full of bright and vibrant colour, wonderfully detailed. The main character designs are cute and fun, albeit a little plain compared to the right world the author creates. The panels where there is movement or facial expression aren't as well done and feel really over the top compared to the rest of the book which is incredibly toned down.
I'll admit, I wasn't into the plot and was going to give this a worse review until the last like 50 pages. The sudden repercussions from the dinner scene at the beginning were unexpected and added more to the story - gave it some of the ooompf it needed.
I'll read the next volume and hope it improves in the areas I feel it's lacking!

Ahh, I'm so excited that this is being published. The first volume is adorable and sets the scene and pending relationship between the two. I won't say much and spoil the story, but I'd recommend reading volume one and then checking out the title on Webtoon if you can't wait for the the volumes (like me).

Thank you NetGalley and WEBTOON Inc. for this ARC.

Had read the first chapter of this a long time back on the app, and it’s just as fun as I remember. The art is amazing! Will wait for more volumes.

Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review!

I really enjoyed this first bit of Morgana and Oz! The art is charismatic, the story is interesting and the characters are worthwhile. Webtoons have truly become the future of graphic novels, and I think it’s cool!
However, I deducted one star for the ARC itself. It was just unacceptably bad. I tried to read the provided file that NetGalley provided, but there was an enormous watermark that heavily obscured the art. I get not wanting your work to be distributed before release day, but this is a collection covering about a third of a comic that you can already read online with no watermark…. For free. I ended up reading this on the Webtoon app instead. This really isn’t the author’s fault, and this published version of Morgana and Oz is worth reading upon release with no watermark, or on Webtoon!

Thank you to Netgalley and Webtoon Unscrolled for this ARC.

3.5 stars rounded up to 4.

The premise of this story was really interesting. We get kind of flung into the deep end plot wise right from page one. I would have loved a little more world building to fully grasp what's happening in the story and why. More background information on the witches, vampires, and the world in general would have enhanced my reading experience.

I love our two main characters Oz and Morgana. Whilst we didn't get a lot of character development as it's only the first volume, there is a lot of potential there.

The art style is gorgeous and every panel looks great.

Overall, this is a series that I'm looking forward to continuing!

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

First I would like to say Thank You to NetGalley and WEBTOON Unscrolled for allowing me to have an Advanced Readers Copy.

This was so much fun! The art style is amazing. Although I’m not entirely sure if some of the pages were deliberately left blank or if I just wasn’t allowed to see certain pages? Anyway, I digress. There is a lot of mystery in this first volume. And I am eager to find out more about what is going on!! I cannot wait to continue with this series.
Will Morgana ever control her magic? Will Oz ever turn back into a vampire?

I was scrolling around Netgalley and came across this graphic novel and it sounded good and I looked the cover art so I grabbed it. I did enjoyed the witches vs. Vampire aspect. I am going to read the next in the series because I feel like we were kind of left on a cliff hanger as far as what the outcome will be. I also sense a romance possibly coming on.
I liked most of the art but sometimes I felt like it wasn’t as detailed on some pages so those ones weren’t as nice to look at.
Overall this was a good read and I would recommend it and I’m looking forward to carrying on with the series.

Thank you to Netgalley and Webtoon for the complimentary copy.

A family of witches, the story opening up with little witch Morgana setting her dress on fire in an effort to change the style and color.

Instead, her spell sends it up in flames. The whole party dress is burned to cinders. In which she meets Oz while trying to fix the catastrophe, who was getting ready to stage a coup.

A vampire and a witch. A vampire 🦇 transformed into an adorable little kitty. A disappeared grandfather. A deal.

Trying every magical spell depleting a witch. The hatred that humans have for magic, for powerful witches is poignant. Pain and tricks and snickering at a magical girl trying her best.

Moon crescent flower. One that only blooms at night. The red vampire clan. Winterberry witches. The Council. Fireflies. A kidnapping.

Witch blood. Curses. Good start to an interesting webtoon series! 🌟🌟🌟🌟/5 Stars!

Thank you Wattpad Webtoon Studios and NetGalley for allowing me to read the first volume of Morgana and Oz!

I absolutely loved this. In Morgana and Oz you're introduced to Morgana who is the daughter of a witch clan and Oz who is a part of a rival vampire clan who have been at odds for a long time. Just when both clans come together to talk about creating peace between the two someone tries to sabotage the negotiations. Morgana meets Oz during the fall out and her magic causes some bad luck for Oz in the process. Morgana seems like such a sweet character even though her magic is unpredictable, she really just wants to do good and find a way for both clans to get along. Oz slowly warms up to her, I wonder how their relationship will continue to develop and who might be secretly trying to ruin everything Morgana wishes to come true. The art is really good and the story is intriguing, the first volume leaves you wondering what will happen next. Can't wait to read the next volume when it comes out!

Thank you to the publisher for the eARC!

Absolutely love the cover and the art style a lot! I was thoroughly invested in Morgana Winterberry's journey who is a daughter of a very well-known witch family Winterberry but she lacks the skills of her family and her every spell goes wrong. She accidentally turns Oz, a vampire from the Red Vampire Clan which is at odds from the Winterberry family, into a cat. And so starts the story of Morgana learning to harness her powers, get better at spells and turn Oz back into a vampire. Oz's character was interesting to read and especially Roland's. My favourite side character was definitely Mordecai.
The ending was really abrupt, I thought there was a mistake and accidentally got a shorter version of the book. It should've ended on a cliffhanger and not like how it did. There were also a few blank pages which confused me a lot.
Overall, I'm excited to read how this story ends.


Rating: 3.5 stars

This is a delightful web-comic-turned-graphic-novel! Morgana is a young witch who has trouble controlling her powers. When she meets Oz, she accidentally turns him from a vampire into a cat, but is determined to change him back. Adding drama to the story is a missing grandpa, a failing business, and potential vampire-witch war.

I loved the quirky characters and the art style is adorable. Although the plot moves fairly quickly, the author does a good job of showing important details about the setting, while still leaving a little mystery. The book ends on a cliffhanger, but if you don't mind the formatting on webtoons, the next part starts on episode 20. (Which I will be getting to very soon.)

The witches and vampires have been enemies as long as Morgana can remember, and although Mum is trying to make peace with them, something goes horribly wrong. In the chaos, Morgana accidentally turns one of the vampires into a cat and has to start a quest to turn him back into himself.

I love the art style of this graphic novel, and the storyline has the potential to be full of thoughtful perspective. Like many Webtoons-based books, this one picked a spot and simply stopped rather than finding a good place where there's some sort of resolution, which is annoying, but I can always go onto Webtoons to see what happens next, and I'm sure more volumes will be forthcoming. Overall, this is quirky and magical with lots of fun surprises and adorable characters. I'll be looking forward to book two.

"Morgana and Oz" by Miyuli is a very cute story with such gorgeous art! I really enjoyed the plot of this GN, with all the aspects I enjoy like witches, romance, cats, you name it. I have never read a story like this before so I thoroughly enjoyed the ideas and story line of it all. Thank you NetGalley for allowing me to read this one.

Thank you so much netgalley for sending me this arc ! I have been following Miyuli for a long time and was even around when Morgana & Oz were originally created. I read the comic when it first came out and I am super excited for it to become a physical book. If you like a cute supernatural story with a hint of mystery this is definitely a comic worth reading. I really love Morgana & Oz relationship and Miyuli's art is beautiful. The story is very interesting and I can't wait to see what comes next.
