Plot Summary
In this modern magic action story, Takeshi Nanase is an ordinary high school boy who has a somewhat dark past. Due to certain circumstances, he formed a "fake" couple with his childhood friend Kurumi Isoshima, but otherwise, he lives a normal life. However, one day, he comes across a girl named Mui Aiba, in a uniform he has never seen before, collapsed on the school campus. This encounters changes Takeshi's destiny completely. Mui tells Takeshi that she is a magician, and she apologizes, for she turned Takeshi into a magician, too. What Takeshi once knew as one world is actually two—the world where magicians live and the world where humans live.

No idea what or why, but this show feels so similar to something else I have seen and liked in the past that it makes me really want to watch it. And I have a little bit of an idea, and actually think it kind of mixes a couple I liked.

I really, really, really wanted to like this series. It had a great premise, so much potential, and I looked forward to it every week. Yet, somehow, this series turned out to be the possibly the worst I've seen this season. Everything felt rushed, from the characters, to the story, to by some miracle even the exposition. I feel like this could not have been done at all unless it had at least 24 episodes, and as such should not have even been considered with 12. I'm having trouble convincing myself that that ending wasn't worse than the tv ending of NGE. With how badly it turned out, I have little hope for a sequal, so that random segue/cliff hanger of an ending will have to be it.

On a side note, I would kill Gekkou a thousand times over for what he did to Towa. She was my favorite character in the whole series, and she got way less screen time than she deserved.

Yeah, I don't understand why they made such a big deal over Twilight/Towa and then just wrote her off.
