Crunchyroll will simulcast the fantasy romance sequel
This is the story of a cursed prince and the strongest witch in a world where magic is a part of life.
Peeling back a layer, the true story is that of a protagonist with a mind of steel who declares, “You don’t have to break the curse; just marry me since it doesn’t affect you. That way everything’s settled.” Then, the witch insists, “I refuse to marry you, and I will break the curse!” From there, the story becomes one of how their back-and-forth ends up changing the history of the entire world they live in.

n a time period known as the Age of Witches exists a land of magic and kingdoms. The reason for the era’s name is due to the five witches who live across the land, wielding tremendous magical power, enough to singlehandedly bring a nation to its knees.
The prince of Farsas, Oscar, knows this power all too well. When he was a child, he and his father were cursed by the Witch of Silence so that they could never bear children, which would end their bloodline. The nation used every mean to try and figure out a way to break this curse, but to no avail. In this time, Oscar spent his days training himself in sword and statecraft, so as to make up for his inability to continue the Farsas royal bloodline.
After exhausting every other option, Oscar himself decides to go out and seek the power of the Witch of the Azure Moon. It is said that whoever conquers the tower that she resides in, filled with puzzles and traps in abundance, will be granted a wish. He goes with the intention of asking her to break his curse, but when she sees how beautiful she is, and how she has the ability to resist the curse’s magic, he decides that he instead would like for her to marry him.
The Witch, Tinasha, refuses profusely. However, she compromises to stay with him in Farsas for a year as his protector. Over time, Tinasha adjusts to the world that has changed drastically since the last time she left her tower, and realizes that there is more to Oscar’s character than his stubborn will. Similarly, Oscar begins to learn more of the nature of magic and witches, and realizes that the pretty face of his protector conceals many dark, century old secrets.
