Overview
- The anime began airing April 6, 2026 and has pushed detailed analysis of the story's central law, the Day of the Pact, which outlaws spells that alter human bodies or dangerously warp environments.
- Coverage highlights named forbidden spells — including petrification, the Scalewolf Curse, Illusory Labyrinth and Twin Bottle — as concrete examples of why witch society bans certain techniques.
- Major factions are now a focal point for critics and fans, with Pointed Cap witches and the Three Wise forming the official order and the Brimmed Cap group using outlawed magic to challenge that order.
- The Knights Moralis enforce the Pact through memory erasure and policing, a practice reporters say frames the series' ethical tension between protecting the public and suppressing knowledge.
- Production reporting notes a multi‑year build that intensified in 2023, with BUG FILMS directing the adaptation under Ayumu Watanabe, and the 13‑episode Season 1 streaming weekly on Crunchyroll with episode 11 set for June 8 and the finale on June 22.
