The Classroom of a Black Cat and a Witch plot
The first volume of the hit fantasy manga the anime is based on describes its plot like this:
Spica Virgo can’t use magic. To enroll in the magic school she admires, she needs a mentor—but she has no money or connections.
Then, a mysterious black cat appears before her—one that speaks human language and wields magic!
Spica, who wants to learn sorcery, and the black cat, who wants to break a curse, find their goals perfectly aligned. A secret master-disciple relationship is formed!
The key to lifting the curse? A kiss on “×××”!?
A magical academy fantasy starring a hopeless witch and her black cat teacher begins!!
Meanwhile, the anime’s just-released trailer will give you a quick idea of what you can expect (cute!) as Spica tries to learn to ride a broomstick.
