1| "It's Been Six Years"
Transliteration: "6-Nen buri no fushigi" (Japanese: 6年振りの不思議)| April 10, 2016 (2016-04-10)

Makoto Kowata is a young witch, who moves from Yokohama to Aomori in northern Honshu to complete her training and become a full-fledged witch. She has arranged to stay with her cousins, the Kuramotos, on their farm. Her younger cousin Chinatsu thinks Makoto is odd for talking to her cat, Chito-san, but is quickly won over by a trip to the shopping mall in the town of Hirasaki. Among other things, Makoto buys a broomstick for flying. She lets Chinatsu fly back to the farm on her new broomstick. Chinatsu is ecstatic. She becomes more friendly to Makoto and less fearful of magic. The next day, Makoto attends a normal high school with her older cousin Kei and his friend Nao. After school, Nao guides Makoto home, so she will not get lost. While they are getting to know each other, Makoto finds a wild mandrake root and pulls it up. She offers it to Nao as a gift of their new friendship. Nao is terrified by the squirming, screaming root, so she declines the gift. Makoto takes the root home with her, because mandrake is a rare and precious resource.

2| "A Visitor for the Witch"
Transliteration: "Majo e no hōmon-sha" (Japanese: 魔女への訪問者)| April 17, 2016 (2016-04-17)

Chinatsu is scared by the appearance of a strange, tall man at their front door. Makoto recognizes him as the Harbinger of Spring. The Harbinger indicates this is a courtesy call to welcome her to this area. Makoto greets him respectfully and thanks him for creating the beautiful Spring foliage and flowers. She offers him two pieces of the mandrake root she recently collected. The Harbinger thanks her for the rare gift. He gives her a pot of petunias as a peace offering for scaring Chinatsu. Later, on the way home from school, Makoto tells Nao that she had a dream that indicated good luck in her future. Nao is delighted and heads home. Makoto and Kei pick some wild fuki shoots, locally called bakke, along the side of the road. At home, they soak the bitterness from the buds and fry them in tempura batter for a snack. Chinatsu refuses to have any, because no amount of soaking will change the bitter taste. Elsewhere, Nao sits and wonders what form her predicted good luck might take.

3| "Lessons in Farming and Magic"
Transliteration: "Hata kōza to majutsu kōza" (Japanese: 畑講座と魔術講座)| April 24, 2016 (2016-04-24)

Makoto wants to start a garden to increase her knowledge and connection with Nature. Uncle Keiji says she can use the plot behind the house, which has not been used since his mother passed away. It is full of weeds, so Kei and Chinatsu offer to help pull them up. After a while, Makoto spots a pheasant and chases it around the garden. She references "The Tale of Momotarō," who is accompanied by his faithful monkey, dog, and pheasant. Across the world in Africa, Makoto's sister Akane decides to take a break from her world travels to visit Makoto and her Aomori cousins. Akane teleports to the Kuramoto farm and greets everyone. She hands out very odd gifts from Africa. Akane criticizes Makoto's laziness in spellcasting. Akane teaches Makoto a spell to summon a wild crow, using a black hair from Chinatsu. Makoto practices the spell, but accidentally makes it too powerful by using her own black hair. The hair of a witch is very potent, so it summons a whole flock--a murder of crows. Akane says the birds will disperse, eventually. Akane teleports away, leaving them to deal with the birds.

4| "A Fortune Teller Veiled in Cherry Blossoms"
Transliteration: "Sakura no naka no uranaishi" (Japanese: 桜の中の占い師)| May 1, 2016 (2016-05-01)

Makoto and her cousins visit the Hanami, the local cherry blossom festival. Makoto and her cousins explore the park and have their picture taken in front of Hirasaki Castle. On the way back home, the trio encounter a roadside fortune teller. When the fortune teller hears Makoto's surname name, Kowata, she reveals herself to be a fellow witch named Inukai. She claims that after a drunken night of revelry, Akane Kowata tricked her into being turned into a dog-person. It happened last year, so Inukai has been in the park waiting for Akane to return. Makoto invites Inukai to the Kuramoto household and attempts to reverse Akane's spell with magical konpeito candy. However, the candy temporarily makes Inukai more dog-like. Later, Akane arrives and explains that Inukai caused the transformation herself. Akane had warned Inukai not to eat the magic chocolate, but she was hungry, so she ate it. The spell will fade, eventually.

5| "How to Use Your Familiar"
Transliteration: "Tsukaima no katsuyō-hō" (Japanese: 使い魔の活用法)| May 8, 2016 (2016-05-08)

Chito explores the town. By familiarizing herself with the town, Chito can prevent Makoto from becoming lost. A curious Chinatsu follows Chito as she visits different places. After returning home, Chinatsu is tired and takes a nap. Chito takes Makoto for a walk and shows her interesting things: a mark on a door which looks like a face, a tied up dog which Chito taunts, a cherry tree which rains blossoms, and a treasure box which some boys hid. Makoto examines the box and discovers it's a time capsule.

6| "Trick or Treat"
Transliteration: "Okashina okashi" (Japanese: おかしなおかし)| May 15, 2016 (2016-05-15)

Akane starts teaching Makoto witchcraft. Chinatsu asks Akane to take her as an apprentice and make her a witch as well. Chinatsu asks her parents for permission, which they give easily. Akane is still reluctant, because people who are not naturally born a witch have to work very hard. Akane proposes to show Chinatsu what it's like to be a witch, so she can make an informed decision. Akane shows Chinatsu and Makoto a "Trick or Treat" magic spell, using some snacks, one makes the eater cry and the other laugh. Makoto ends up crying, Chinatsu laughing, while Uncle Keiji--who eats both--simultaneously laughs and cries.

7| "Cafe Conclusio"
Transliteration: "Kissa Konkurushio" (Japanese: 喫茶コンクルシオ)| May 22, 2016 (2016-05-22)

Makoto, Chinatsu, Nao and Kei go picking herbs in the mountains. The children and Nao take the bus to the forest at the foot of the mountains. Akane is jet-lagged, so she stays home to sleep. Kei selects a good spot to pick ostrich fern fiddle-heads for snacks. This is Nao's first time picking greens in the woods. She is afraid there may be bears. When a frog hops on Nao, she screams so loud, the hidden forest bear runs away. When they get home, Kei cooks up the fern snacks. Later, Akane sends Chinatsu, Makoto and Kei to a nearby cafe owned by a local witch and her daughter, thinking Chinatsu should experience the local witch community and Makoto should meet a local senior practitioner. They follow the map Akane drew for them, but the address is a deserted ruin. On the back of the map, there are instructions for a short ritual. When they perform the rite, they see a lovely cafe in place of the ruined building. They enter and seat themselves. A ghostly paper appears on the table, indicating they should make their order. The waitress is revealed to be a timid ghost named Hina. They order tea and a variety of desserts.

Chinatsu provides a commentary for the couple as they dine. The Veil of Night, who brings the night every day, has a quiet table to herself. And a fox comes by to enjoy a plate of winter cherries.

Makoto shows her around the farm. When they get near the mandrake root, Makoto offers it to her as a gift. Still terrified, Nao declines again. Akane flies in and gives everyone a gift from Africa. Each gift matches that person's fortune.

Nao is bad at cooking and is nervous in home-ec class. With support from Makoto and Kei, Nao attempts to make hamburger steaks. Kei makes a curry.

Later, Makoto and Akane accompany their cousins to their apple orchard to thin the apple blossoms. Thinning the blossoms ensures that each apple will get a greater share of the nutrients and grow to be a perfect fruit. Makoto goes near the beehives.

After getting directions to a fabric store from Aunt Nana, Makoto ventures out with Chito. They buy some cloth and return without getting lost. Makoto also makes a set of witch's robes with some red cloth for Chinatsu. Makoto will not let Chinatsu watch her sew, referencing "The Tale of the Grateful Crane." Chinatsu is extremely happy with the finished robe and shows it to her family. Later, a drunken Akane returns from the Hirasaki Neputa Festival. While Makoto and Akane are trying to locate a lost mandrake root, they find ground fish. They are like normal fish, except they live in the ground. The fish are gathering, because they love festivals. Akane gives them some of her sake. The fish drink greedily, change color, and float into the air. They begin to glow like festival lanterns. Makoto looks upon them in wonder and delight.
