Review: The story is based in normal, present day Japan – with a slight difference. In today’s world there are two kinds of people living – those who have the ability to use magic (Mages) and those who cannot. Just like anything else, magic is considered a service and the Bureau of Mage Labour receives many requests from people for the use of magic – for pretty much anything under the sun as long as the request is approved. (Yes, bureaucracy exists even in this world!) The power of Mages does not go unregulated, and Mages are forbidden to use their power without prior clearance.

Kikuchi Yume is the 17-year old daughter of a famous mage. Filled with dreams and hopes of using her magic to help people, Yume makes her way to unfamiliar city of Tokyo to intern under the well-known (and charming) Mage Oyamada Masami. The anime follows Yume’s trials and tribulations as she learns more about a Mage’s power and the trouble that comes along with it. In her journey, she disovers the true meaning behind being a Mage.

This a wonderful slice-of-life anime. The characters in the story are well- developed and Yume’s journey – both personal and magical bring out the challenges, the problems and the many unanswerable questions that come along with being a Mage. There are certain threads of tragic pasts and romance left unresolved. I loved watching every minute of this series and would highly recommend it!
