The Ancient Magus’ Bride (2017)

Mahou Tsukai no Yome / 魔法使いの嫁

Information

Synopsis

Chained up, scantily clad and treated like an animal, 15-year-old Chise Hatori is dragged through corridors full of seemingly unreal creatures to a large stage where she is auctioned off as a valuable “Sleih Beggey”. At this point, she has long since grown tired of her life as an orphan who was placed with relatives after the death of her mother and has never really been needed by anyone. The bids start at 500,000, but surprisingly, the last word goes to the tall magician Elias Ainsworth, who is prepared to pay ten times that amount for the human girl. She is not afraid of the bone-headed man but is surprised that he does not want to treat her like a slave but even wants to make her his apprentice and fiancée.

It doesn’t take long for her to realise what it means that Elias is a mage, the likes of which hardly seem to exist anymore. Half human and half fairy, he has already lived for several millennia, and feelings seem so abstract to him that he can’t even grasp them. He hopes his Sleih Beggey apprentice, who magically attracts both evil and good spirits, will enrich his dreary life. Chise, however, appreciates she is finally needed by someone.

But as they work through various assignments that take them to enchanted places such as the kingdom of cats or the last refuge of endangered dragons, Chise increasingly realises that life at Elijas’ side can also be dangerous. Will their unusual partnership be a success?
Annotation:
