0"Witchling: Part 1"
Transliteration: "Majo no Musume -Witchling- Zenhen" (Japanese: 魔女の娘 -Witchling- 前篇)		TBATBATBAJuly 3, 2025 (2025-07-03)
The city of Kamitsubaki is hit by a disaster dubbed the "Blacckout", where the sun turns green and instantly incinerates any human caught in its light. A young girl named Kafu appears to be immune to the effects of the Blackout, but she is traumatized when she comes across the burnt bodies of her parents. Orphaned, she is later adopted by her neighbor Erika. Seven years later, Kafu is now a high school student who sings as a hobby, but the city is now experiencing odd supernatural phenomena dubbed "Q". Her singing attracts the attention of a mysterious young boy named Laplace, until she receives word that Erika has caught up in a Q event. She heads over, but only arrives in time to see Erika killed by a monster called a "tesseractor". Laplace rescues Kafu and reveals she is "witchling", a person whose songs have the power to destroy tesseractors, who are humans twisted by their own negative emotions. Kafu is also told that tesseractors and the "Incomprehensible Regions" they create are a side effect of Kamitsubaki's reliance on Fragments for energy, which is derived from human thought.
1"Witchling: Part 2"
Transliteration: "Majo no Musume -Witchling- Gohen" (Japanese: 魔女の娘 -Witchling- 後篇)		TBATBATBAJuly 11, 2025 (2025-07-11)[b]
Kafu and her fellow Witchlings along with their familiars managed to suppress an outbreak of tesseractors. However, the number of Q incidents keeps increasing, with the risk of another Blackout occurring. That night, Sekai witnesses a premonition of a mass tesseractor attack on the city, and her prediction proves true when a massive Incomprehensible Area forms in Area 3. The Witchlings arrive in Area 3 and begin to engage the tesseractors until the Reconstruction Division discovers that the tesseractors' true target is the VALIS defensive shield that protects the city from Blackouts. With the other Witchlings busy either holding off the tessseractors or assisting in civilian evacuation, Kafu volunteers to protect VALIS. However, despite their best efforts, Kafu and Laplace fail to protect the VALIS device and it is destroyed, opening a breach in the city's protective shield.
