Plot
Tanenashi school is not much different from other educational institutions. But one rule applies to all without exception: each student must choose a club according to his interests. The main character of the anime is an ordinary guy who entered school in the spring. But to choose a club (sports, literary or some other) turned out to be a big problem for him. The guy is not averse to playing computer games, but for now you need to make a choice.
The case lured the kid into a magic class. Thanks to curiosity, the student met a charming girl. Sempai diligently prepared a card trick, but she was immediately shy when a stranger appeared in the audience. As it turned out, the girl can not speak to the public and even to the only spectator.

Shy and awkward Sempai, after a brief acquaintance with the boy, immediately doomed him to be her partner, despite the young man’s resistance. Now the guy bears the proud name of Assistant. Ahead – learning tricks, finding new members of the Magic Club and, of course, performances.
Everyone already knows that the girl has the habit of exposing herself, getting into embarrassing situations, while the probability of a room failure mercilessly approaches 100%. But it is simply impossible to take your eyes off her! Especially if you are a young guy… How can a young magician and illusionist Sempai deal with her phobia? Can she be collected and confident?
