Magical Sempai

Aired: 2019

A TV anime produced by Liden Films, based on the manga by Az serialized in Kodansha's "Weekly Young Magazine" (8 volumes). 600,000 copies in circulation (as of 2018). A freshly enrolled high schooler "Assistant" discovers "Sempai" in the magic club room—a girl who loves magic tricks but has a 0% success rate due to stage fright. Forcibly recruited into the magic club, Assistant is swept up in Sempai's daily failed tricks. Joined by street-performing siblings "Saki-chan" and "Ma-kun" and chemistry club member "Madara-san," Sempai energetically delivers ecchi-tinged failures day after day. Aired as 12 fifteen-minute short episodes. Directed by Fumiaki Usui. Starring Honoka Ikezoe, Aoi Ichikawa, Eri Kitamura, and Rie Takahashi. ©Az, Kodansha/Magical Sempai Production Committee
