Witch Craft Works (ウィッチクラフトワークス)

I don't know why all this happened.

Among so many unknowns, there's one thing I'm certain of.

The girl who saved me...

She was my classmate.

My name is Takamiya Honoka.

Fuyutsuki High School Main Gate West

I'm a completely ordinary high school student.

I thought today was just another typical day.

Morning.

Princess!

Again?

I ended up on the same bus as Kagari-san...

Any bus she's on is always like this.

When I end up on the same one as her,

every day is like riding to school in a sardine can.

Takamiya-kun and the Fire Witch

If I recall, Kagari-san is the chairwoman's daughter.

She could just get a ride to school...

I don't understand rich people.

Takamiya

Found you...

I never thought I'd have anything to do with Kagari Ayaka.

Princess! Princess!

Even if she does sit directly to my right in class.

We're this close, yet we've never spoken.

That's how it is between us.

I hope we get new seat assignments soon...

Nothing good ever happens to me in this seat.

Princess!

Oh...

Thanks.

Princess, listen to this!

You've got some nerve, you know.

Just because you happen to sit next to the Princess,

you made her pick up the eraser you dropped, didn't you?

Did you do it on purpose?

Obama-kun, get him.

The best is yet to come!

If you've learned your lesson, you won't dare ogle the Princess again.

Ow...

Oh, good, you're here.

Take these to the classroom for me.

Sure.

Takamiya-kun!

That's day duty stuff, right?

Mind handing it over?

Princess! I got it!

Let's go!

What was that?

Oh, I guess Kagari-san's on duty today, too.

On Duty Today Princess (Kagari) | Takamiya

Listen to this, Princess!

For breakfast today, I had miso soup with shimeji mushrooms,

marinated spinach, flavored nori, and rice with a raw egg on top,

and when I broke the egg... You won't believe it!

It had twin yolks!

Princess, I was so surprised!

End of Line

I just knew today was going to be my lucky day!

Can you believe it?

I'm being treated like an obstacle in my own seat...

Takamiya!

Hey, Takamiya, up for karaoke after we're done?

It's no use asking him.

I'm on duty today. I'll pass.

See? Told you. He never wants to hang out.

Seems like a real downer, too.

You boys! Quit slacking and get to work!

Takamiya-kun, you're on garbage duty!

Today's Weather Sunny with Occasional Falling School Buildings

School Buildings

School buildings?

Why?!

It's on a direct course for me!

Am I gonna die?

I don't want to die!

I never even held hands with a girl yet...

Huh?

I'm not dead?

Something smells... nice...

Huh? What? Kagari-san?

Whoa! What are you doing, Kagari-san?!

Quit flailing. You'll fall.

Huh?!

Something crazy's happening in the courtyard!

And we're floating in the air!

S-Sorry...

A Workshop Witch, huh?

Let's see...

what you can do.

They're coming.

"They're coming"?

You're not hurt?

Stay close to me.

Takamiya-kun, over here.

It's safe over here.

Who's that?

A friend of Kagari-san's?

Burst!

Huh?

Calm down, me!

School buildings falling from the sky

and being attacked by rabbits isn't normal!

That's it!

I'm dreaming!

Takamiya-kun.

Kagari-san?

I told you to stay close to me.

Even in my dreams, you really are beautiful.

Dreams?

Yeah, I'm dreaming.

There's no other way to explain this.

There's no way you'd save me...

It's my mission.

I'm sure you're confused now, but there's no need to worry.

I'm going to protect you.

Because...

you're my princess.

What?

Um, that sounded pretty cool until the end.

Did I hear that last part wrong?

Just give up and let me protect you.

Huh?

Did that happen because she covered for me?

For me...

Kagari-san, why did you cover for me?

Why did you come here?

I told you, because you're my princess.

That's not what I'm talking about!

What are you angry about?

Angry?

This is weird. I'm actually mad.

I was tricked. You could have just left me alone.

Why did you get your hair burned doing something so stupid?

Your hair is...

Your hair is like a miracle granted by the gods!

Why am I even saying stuff like this?

We've been classmates for a month and we've never spoken once!

Or am I a pervert who developed an

unhealthy attachment to her hair without realizing it?

Look out!

Takamiya-kun!

All I've done is make myself look like a loser...

This was my fault for not finishing the job.

I should have returned you to dust...

and left no trace behind.

Incinerate them,

Million Clover!

Time to pull back...

I won't forget this, Fire Witch.

Good morning. How are you feeling?

Kagari-san!

Where are we? Are you the only one here?

Wait, wasn't I...

This is my own private room within the school.

You don't remember what happened?

Um...

She's dressed normal now.

Was that a dream?

It wasn't a dream.

I'll explain everything one day.

For now, let's go home.

Your bag is right there.

Wait, Kagari-san... I...

There's no need to protect you in secret anymore.

We'll go home together.

Protect... in secret?

For some reason, we ended up on the same bus every day,

were seated side by side in the same class,

and always had day duty together.

Now that I think about it, she was always close...

What does it all mean?

My mission is to protect you.

Because you are my master.

Huh?
