Pretty cute, fun light watch. But something really gone bad towards the end.
I found it rather fun having folklores and fairy tales being personified into grimoire that grants mahou shoujo magic powers based on the story. Overall its a pretty light and easy watch. Decent amount of action balanced with some personal struggle of the ML, coupled with light heart warming moments.
Though, its a tragedy towards the end - when the production quality dropped when an internal turmoil happened with the studio. And just too bad the last 2 ep was just dropped. It's a shame actually - I really like the premise and plot so far, and the ML character is really adorable.
All in, it ain't a bad light watch. Give it a try - for the fans of Mahou Shoujo mainly. Rating it at 6/10.
20190706: 2 special ep released almost a year later, and added a complete and neat ending to the whole plot. Still cute and all with some yuri-ish stuff going on.

I liked the story which was interesting with the mix of "magical girl" and "fairytales".
Everything was okayish: music, voices, the animation looked kind of good though! Well.. at least up to ep 8 since it crashed real bad in ep 9. I never saw something good turn bad so fast. Ep 10 was good again though so it's a pity they cancelled the series after this ep. It's really sad what happened to this series since it really had a nice premise!
Thus it's only recommended for fans...
Update (26.05.19): I wrote my rec on 2018-04-29 - a year later ep 11-12 (special 1-2) have been released to finish this series. And the ending was really nice!

I cant say i was amazed by the story or anything like that , in fact it was pretty generic for the most part .
However the art was really good , and the transformations ware awesome .
Its a silly magic girl anime , that kinda breaks the 4th wall every now and then , got the classic i have no friends protagonist , and the OP girl that becomes her teacher ... and then the silly no friends girl save the world kind of thing.
If you have spare 3-4 hours id suggest giving it a shot tho , for what it is , it did a great job telling the story it wanted to tell
