A first promotional video has arrived for Maebashi Witches, an original anime from Sunrise set to premiere in Spring 2025. The trailer offers a glimpse into the urban fantasy premise, where ordinary high school student Yuina Akagi is whisked away to a magical dimension by a talking frog. There, she joins four other girls recruited for their potential as witches, hinting at a story blending coming-of-age themes with magical transformations and idol-like elements.
The series appears to lean into a "cute girls doing cute things" aesthetic, with the PV showcasing vibrant character designs and dynamic magical sequences. The involvement of Sunrise, known for mecha classics like Mobile Suit Gundam and the Love Live! idol franchise, suggests a production quality that could elevate the show's blend of everyday life and fantastical adventure.
