Egao no Daika [The Cost of Smiles, The Price of Smiles] DVD 1-12 (Japanese
Ver) Anime
Hazuki Kagimura is a normal girl who is usually alone. With her relationship
with her new family not going so well, she retreats every day to the world
of stories and books. One day, after school, one of the library's bookshelves
sends her to another world with a magic school, where she meets Shizuka Tsuchimikado.
She finds out that girls (called "mädchen") who attend the school are
selected by old fairy tails and folk stories to wield their magic, and are
taught how to wield it in the school. The school has girls who are chosen by
such stories as Kaguya-hime no Monogatari, Issun-boushi, Der Freischütz,
Shuten-douji, The Little Matchstick Girl, The Gigantic Turnip, Arthurian legends,
and The Ramayana. Hazuki herself is chosen by the Cinderella story. She begins
her new life at the school to become a magic user, and be friends with Shizuka.
