Among the spells that appear in the main series, there are many that are mundane, or absurd to the point of appearing useless: these shorts each focus on one such spell.

It is produced by TOHO animation STUDIO, who are also currently co-producing the upcoming October anime "The Apothecary Diaries" with OLM.
