Ugh I just love the theme of moth magic with this character. I wish her ultimate had been better, but I'll play this card at least since it's Mono-Blue to represent how cool her magic is.
Card effect is neat and really embodies the feel of the EDH mentality of "big mana for big, ridiculous effect". As others have mentioned this spell is going to be nuts when copied.
As a dad I really like the art, even if it feels more modern (I tend to like the old or more high fantasy focused pieces). It gives the character an air of child-like innocence that her walker card doesn't display.
This card costs 8, exiles 8 cards, can potentially give you 8 cards for free, has 8 butterflies in the art and Aminatou is 8 years old. I SEE YOU WIZARDS!
Man... now I want to manifest this and slap Octopus Umbra on it, just for achievement points.
This takes a lot of setup but the payoff is huge. I could see a lot of decks experimenting with this.
Does it really, though?
It does if you want to get insane,
but you can get 3-4 spells and a land from this without even trying,
and I wager that's worth the price of admission.
More than that is just gravy.

Completely off-topic, but out of curiosity I went to read her preview article just now (cause I hadn't bothered to earlier) and a moth fluttered in and landed on my desk... I... I think I've been blessed...
(Or it could just be cause I live in the midwest and there are so many damned bugs that every time you open the door you need to call an exterminator.)
I know a couple eight year olds that would be very offended you think they're babies.
