In a world plagued by rogue witches, magical threats have pushed humanity to its limits. To counter these dangers, the military has abandoned traditional swordsmanship in favor of firearms, giving rise to the Anti-Magic Academy—an elite institution dedicated to forging skilled witch hunters. Among its many platoons, the 35th Test Platoon stands apart for all the wrong reasons: its members struggle to function as a unit, earning them a reputation as the academy's most dysfunctional squad. At the center of it all is Takeru Kusanagi, a stubborn swordsman who refuses to adopt modern weaponry and insists on fighting with a blade. When Ouka Ootori, a brilliant markswoman stripped of her elite status, is reassigned to this ragtag group, the platoon's already fragile dynamic is thrown into question. Can these misfits find common ground and forge something greater than the sum of their parts?
