Hitomi Tsukishiro is 17 years old, and the descendant of a clan of sorcerers. At a young age, she lost the ability to see colours, and became an emotionless girl.

Worried about Hitomi’s future, her grandmother Kohaku, a great sorceress, uses her magic to send Hitomi to 2018.

Suddenly arriving in this unknown place, the bewildered Hitomi realises she can see intensely vivid colours…

The best part? The grandmother hasn’t even come back yet at the end of Episode 3. The anime is very pretty and P.A. Works has done a good job again. The story is a bit slow, so if you aren’t looking for a slow, fanciful romance, then steer clear. If you want to see a main character who has shut herself off from the world, more or less due to her disability, return to a happy life with the help of time travel and new friends, then press on. It’s going to be a heartwarming anime for sure.
