Synopsis

Matoi Sumeragi wishes for nothing more than to lead a normal life away from the spotlight. She is quite satisfied alternating between school and her part-time job at her best friend Yuma Kusanagi's family shrine. But this routine life is permanently disturbed when a Night—an evil extra-dimensional entity—attacks the shrine. Matoi is able to drive it off after unwittingly calling upon the powers of a god, the natural enemies of the Nights.

Matoi and Yuma are soon joined by Claris Tonitolus, an experienced exorcist from the Vatican, and agent Haruka Luciela, who works for the secretive Night defense organization IATO. Despite not knowing the perpetrator behind these attacks nor their motive, Matoi must come to master this newfound power in order to protect both the people around her and the once normal life she holds so dear.

Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (10/12 eps)
Spoiler
When it comes to creating any series, trying to maintain a certain level throughout is a challenge. One problem with short run anime is trying to shove in as much content as possible in the time allotted when it's clear that the idea needed more time to fully develop. For this series, it falls apart by the 9th episode.

The reason I watched this series is because I like to look into certain individuals or studios and what all they've done. Currently that is studio White Fox. Being their only original work, this magical girl series has a unique take and is more playful with itself ...

In order to avoid spoilers, I'll sum things up instead:

The story allowed room for so much simple, generic mahou shojo goodness. What did the series decide to do? Ignore at least half of the things it set up to be done. Which left both loopholes and a lack of theme to prevail. Instead making it super complicated with no resolve to be had.

Like, I could've gotten behind this series. But every time something was set up, my disappointment was rising -- time was running out and nothing seemed to be getting resolved SO MUCH AS TOUCHED AGAIN.

I wasn't even expecting it to ...
