SYNOPSIS
Makoto Tsukumo has just moved to the countryside to live with her cousin, and she's brought along one unusual piece of luggage: a flying ability she inherited from her witch lineage. Problem is, she's terrible at it. Her landings are disasters, her takeoffs are unpredictable, and her attempts to master flight keep creating chaos in the peaceful rural community around her. These bite-sized episodes capture Makoto stumbling through daily life as an incompetent witch trying to hide her magical nature from the neighbors while learning to actually control her aerial mishaps. Every attempt to use her powers in secret somehow makes things worse. Her cousin watches in alternating exasperation and amusement as Makoto transforms mundane tasks like grocery shopping and visiting town into comedic catastrophes. The show thrives on physical comedy and the absurd contradiction between the grace you'd expect from a flying witch and the slapstick reality of watching one crash repeatedly into trees and buildings. It's lighthearted, quick-hitting humor that doesn't demand much attention but rewards anyone who enjoys watching someone fail spectacularly at the one thing they're supposed to be good at.
