Never had/dealt with 4-5 yr. olds throwing Tantrums, have you? :rolleyes:
they clearly said rebellious phase like you would said to teenager. and the MC is trying to distance himself with the family.

regardless if you can differentiate between tantrum and rebellious pahse, or differentiate between furstation (in tantrum) and depression (in rebellious phase), the characters treat it as rebellious and consider it soemhtiing a kid would do by the author which is weird, unless theres translation mistake and they actually said tantrum

I think you're confusing Western "rebellious phase" = Puberty, with the "rebellious phase" in a japanese Conformist context.
Teenagers aren't allowed to rebel... They're already expected to have "Common Sense". And the entire school system is designed to drill that into them. On pain of Pain.

The only age kids can "rebel" is in the 4-5 yr age range, where kids aren't yet taken seriously and they can still act out to a certain extent.
This is the whole premise of "Shin-Chan" ** , where a 5yr old can comment on the Adult World and do things against "Common Sense" and Convention. And can get away with criticising it. Because he's only 5. So it's heavily leveraged for social criticism you can't ordinarily express in Japan.

*Note the demographic on that one... In Japan that one is intended for an *adult audience...
In the West it's aired as a Kid's Cartoon, because "it's about a 5yr old kid, so it's for kids, right?"...

I like the story so far, but the art leaves a bit to be desired. It feels more like a doujin, rather than professionally done

I think this is one of the few manga that give solid reason why they don't teach magic to young kids.

The goofy faces really tie the chapter together. Hope mom does not get sidelined as soon as Al learns her signature move.

The abduction makes no sense people would easily see it with their periperal vision
You'd be surprised how little people are paying attention in a busy market. Plus, just because someone sees something doesn't mean anyone will interfere. Those bystander effect studies are kinda haunting in that way.

Come on, author. You can't introduce a cute freckled maid and then just leave her as a meaningless background character. Make use of the romance tag once the lead ages up.

This looks like an isekai that actually tries a story instead of the usual brainrot fantasies so I'm happy.
