Synopsis:

The story follows Nanao Hibiya, a skilled samurai unexpectedly brought to Kimberly Magic Academy after a life-saving intervention by a faculty member. Thrust into a world of magic and peril, she quickly finds herself navigating the academy’s challenging environment alongside a cohort of equally diverse students. Under the guidance of Oliver Horn, a reserved instructor harboring his own secrets, Nanao and her peers begin their magical training, facing trials that test their abilities and resilience.

The academy presents a unique atmosphere where danger is commonplace, and graduation is far from guaranteed. As they delve deeper into their studies, the students confront not only external threats but also internal struggles tied to their pasts. The series explores themes of identity, responsibility, and the bonds forged in the face of adversity, as these inexperienced magic practitioners strive to survive and unravel the mysteries hidden within Kimberly's walls.
