“Chise was able to accept Elias and herself, if not necessarily everything about her situation. After Cartaphilus fell back into a slumber that would not last forever, Chise was able to go back to her regular life. Then she receives an invitation from a mutual aid organization for mages called the College.

Under the British Library exists a secret society of mages. Encounters and interactions with people are about to open some new doors.

This is a story about saving yourself to save another.”

The anime is being made at Studio Kafka, a studio that was originally created to make the The Ancient Magus’ Bride – The Boy from the West and the Knight of the Blue Storm OAD project. It’s being directed by Kazuaki Terasawa.
