The Dawn of the Witch
On TBS
A light-hearted fantasy adventure about a magic student with amnesia sent on a mission to normalize witchcraft in hostile lands, balancing whimsy with modest stakes.
Saybil can't remember his life before he joined the magic academy. He has the lowest grades, because his amnesia leaves him unmotivated. One day, the school headmaster, Albus, orders him to participate in a dangerous special training. "I want you to spread the use of magic in an area where they hold witch hunts." This story is a spin-off of 'Grimoire of Zero.'
