The ad begins with the words, "Even if you say that I'm a foolish person, I have a dream that I want to fulfill." The ad notes that a special "Magic Show" will be streamed live on niconico on November 24 at 7:00 p.m. JST (5:00 a.m. EST). The ad ends with the words "There will be an important announcement!?"

The anime centers on Amane Todoroki, whose catchphrase is “Even if someone asks me, 'Can you really do that?,' I don't really know. But I want to believe! After all, nothing will start if I don't believe!” She is n honest and slightly foolish girl who plows straight through any situation at full force. She often makes quick assumptions, easily cries, and gets emotional at the smallest things.


In the story, at a hilltop park in a town, the performance team "Nought" is holding a "supernatural" magic show before a sparse audience. Despite Nought's best efforts, the audience boos the show. One of Nought's idols, Amane, happens to have ISH — "Incomprehensible Skill of Humans-beings," the power to turn what is imagined into reality. Suddenly, a girl appears before Amane. The masked girl with a cold smile is Aya, the popular genius magician in the group "I.A.M." Like Amane, Aya also has ISH.


The other characters include Amane's Teddy Bear and Nought's leader, Nanae Fudō:



The video anime is Sato's first original action title in 10 years. Mari Okada (anohana, Hana-Saku Iroha) is writing the scripts and collaborating on the story, while Takehito Harada (Disgaea) is working on his first original character designs for an anime project. Encourage Films is producing the animation, and Conisch is scoring the soundtrack.

The video anime will debut next year.
