internal conflicts of the influential clan. This will be the second film in the
franchise after The Girl Who Summons the Stars (2017). Recall
that the saga was born as light novels in 2008, concluding in 2020 with 32
volumes, and has inspired multiple spin-off anime and manga, including The
Visitor Arc and The Honor Student at Magic High School.
