Synopsis

October 31, 2095. The military cities and their naval fleets in the southern tip of the Korean peninsula were wiped out by a never-before-seen Strategic-Class Magic. Since that day, now known as “Scorching Halloween,” the world has been rocked by the emergence of new Strategic-Class magicians. Even Stars, the most powerful force of magicians in the world possessed by the United States of North American Continent (USNA), was alarmed by their destructive power. They became hell-bent on exposing the true identity of these new magicians who have been hiding in the shadows, and the secret magic they wield.

About two months later on December 24, Christmas Eve, while the city of Hachiōji was bustling with Christmas decorations and illuminations, Tatsuya and his friends gathered at Café Einebrise for Shizuku’s farewell party. Shizuku was accepted into a 3-month exchange program in America. According to her, a girl her age from America would be taking her place at First High School. Meanwhile, at the USNA’s Stars base, preparations for a prospective young girl to infiltrate First High School were proceeding according to plan. The undercover agent’s name is Angelina Kudou Shields. She is the youngest commanding officer in Stars’ history and is the USNA’s strongest magician able to wield the Strategic-Class Magic, Heavy Metal Burst.

Characters & Voice Actors

Tatsuya Shiba: Yuichi Nakamura

A freshman at the National Magic University Affiliated First High School. He received an unprecedented high score on the written entrance exam, but due to “a certain defect” he barely managed to pass the technical skills portion. He gets placed into Course 2, the lower scoring course, known as “Weeds” and is assigned to Freshman Class E. He’s skilled at CAD design and has extraordinary technical knowledge.
Miyuki Shiba: Saori Hayami

Tatsuya’s younger sister. A magic prodigy and the top student of her class. She is assigned to Freshmen Class A and placed into the higher scoring course, Course 1, called “Blooms.” Even amongst the Blooms, she is recognized as an elite student gifted with both intelligence and beauty. Her only lovable fault is she has a “serious brother complex.” She’s deeply attached to Tatsuya and calls him “oniisama.” Her speciality is “Freezing Magic.”
Angelina Kudou Shields: Yoko Hikasa

Angelina Kudou Shields is the commanding officer of the USNA's Magician Unit "Stars". She holds the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. Her nickname is Lina. She was bestowed the title of “Sirius,” only given to the strongest combat magician in the USNA, and is the youngest magician in history to attain the rank of commanding officer.
Erika Chiba: Yumi Uchiyama

Tatsuya’s classmate in Class E. A cheerful, eye-catching beautiful girl. Her self-assured attitude often gets her into trouble with the people around her. Erika is a member of the distinguished Chiba family known for combining swordsmanship and magic called “Sword Arts.” Erika herself is highly skilled in swordsmanship and excels in combat.
Leonhart Saijo: Takuma Terashima

Goes by “Leo.” He’s in the same class as Tatsuya, Class E. His father is half-Japanese and his mother is a quarter-Japanese, so they decided to give him a Western first name. Blessed with chiseled features, an athletic body and superior reflexes, he gets a lot of attention from girls. He’s quite friendly and quickly becomes friends with Tatsuya. He specializes in “Fortifying Magic.”
Mizuki Shibata: Satomi Sato

A Course 2 student and classmates with Tatsuya, Erika, and Leo. She can be a little ditzy, but is hardworking. She is popular with some of the upperclassmen who regard her as a “comforting younger sister,” but Mizuki herself seems unaware of that. Mizuki is always seen wearing glasses, which in this day and age is rare because a vision correction procedure is widespread. She suffers from over-sensitivity to spirit particle emissions and the glasses help to keep it under control.
Mikihiko Yoshida: Atsushi Tamaru

Another first year student in Class E. Mikihiko is a direct descendant of the noble Yoshida Family, renowned for their ability to use “Ancient Magic.” His magic abilities are on par with the top students in his year, but ever since an accident, he hasn’t been able to use his powers the same way. It’s hard to say whether it’s the memories he carries from the accident, or the fact that he has been performing in the bottom half of his class, but he is disposed to isolating himself from his classmates.
Honoka Mitsui: Sora Amamiya

A first year student in Class A. Honoka stands out even amongst the top students in her class. She’s kind and meek, but sometimes she overreacts and takes drastic action. She excels at “Light Wave Vibration Magic” but her grades in magic theory are better than her technical skills.
Shizuku Kitayama: Yuiko Tatsumi

Classmates with Miyuki and Honoka in Freshman Class A. Not much of a talker and guards her emotions. She specializes in high output “Vibration Magic.” She’s ranked second in the freshman class for technical skills, Miyuki being above her. Since elementary school Shizuku and Honoka have been close friends and rivals.
