Episode1 Story

Deep within the Black Forest, Luna, a black witch, lives quietly inside a house made of poisonous mushrooms.

Longing for a life among humans, Luna heads into town once again today.

However, when the townspeople catch sight of her, they shy away, warning one another, “Stay away from the black witch’s poisonous mushrooms.”

Luna does not let it bother her. Given her poisonous body, she understands that it cannot be helped.

One day, Luna notices a beautiful young boy.

That night, unable to forget his face, Luna, who loves drawing beautiful things, sketches his likeness from memory.

To her surprise, the boy in the painting gently smiles back at her.

Introduction

Deep within the black forest, in a quiet house of poisonous mushrooms, lived a lone witch named Luna. Wherever she touched or walked, poisonous mushrooms often grew, and the breath she exhaled and even her skin were tainted with poison.

The townspeople called her the “Champignon Witch.” Feared as a black witch, not a single person dared to approach her.

Even so, Luna heads to town again today to sell her medicine. Her remedies are hugely popular as miracle cures, and everyone who obtains them speaks words of gratitude in unison. Yet no one knows who actually makes the medicine.

Still, Luna continues to brew her medicines day after day.

Then one day, a dreamlike encounter comes to lonely Luna, who has never known the warmth of another person……

A magical fantasy of love, adventure, and emotion now begins!

This is a story of love, each in its own form, surrounding the kind-hearted black witch Luna and the people around her.
