The Witches’ Marriage: A Fantasy Yuri Manga Guide

Two adult witches reach towards each other under moonlit stone arches above the sea.

The Witches’ Marriage by studio HEADLINE puts a difficult question at the centre of its fantasy romance: what happens when one witch wants love and the other wants power? Yen Press lists three English manga volumes. Start with Volume 1 to follow Melissa and Tanya’s relationship from its uneasy beginning.

This is a manga, with the story told through illustrated panels. If you want a prose novel, check the format before you order. This guide covers the premise, English editions, and reading order without revealing the outcome of the romance.

Magic depends on the bond between witches

In this story, a strong bond can increase a witch’s power. Melissa wants to open the Door of Truth. She has a cruel method: marry another witch, take her power, then leave her.

Tanya becomes her next target. She is drawn to magic and wants to follow her mentor. Her affection gives Melissa a problem that power alone cannot solve. The opening asks whether a relationship built on deception can change.

These details come from the publisher’s Volume 1 description. They are part of the starting premise, not a promise that the relationship will become healthy or that the ending will be happy.

Read the English volumes in order

Read Volumes 1, 2, and 3 in number order. The later books continue the same relationship. Yen Press lists paperback and digital editions. The ISBNs below identify the English paperbacks.

Volume Paperback ISBN Pages
1 9781975360382 164
2 9781975370237 160
3 9781975391409 192

Volume 2 brings Melissa and Tanya to a school for witch partners. Melissa’s pride and Tanya’s insecurity put pressure on their bond. Volume 3 brings that trust to a further test. You can read the publisher’s summaries for more detail, but later summaries reveal events from earlier books.

Check the relationship premise before you start

Choose this title if you want magic tied directly to a developing GL relationship. The fantasy rules give trust a practical role: it affects what the witches can do.

Do not choose it only because the cover suggests a gentle marriage story. Melissa’s plan involves manipulation and betrayal. Tanya also enters the story as someone who admires her mentor. Those details matter if you prefer a relationship that starts with equal knowledge and honest intentions.

Yen Press gives the English editions a Teen rating. An age rating does not tell you whether a specific relationship dynamic will suit you. Our guide to Yuri content warnings explains what to check before you begin.

Choose a format and start with Volume 1

Use the paperback ISBN when you search a shop or library catalogue. For digital reading, check the edition and supported device on the retailer’s page. Stock, regional access, and prices can change.

Start with the first volume rather than a later book with a more appealing cover. It establishes why the marriage begins and what each witch expects from it. If you prefer fantasy romance in prose, read our Please Divorce Me, Princess! guide for another marriage-based GL premise.
