Kou has been taught never to owe anyone a favor. When Nino saves his life, the wealthy young man is ready to repay her with almost anything—until she asks for a relationship. Moving into her riverside community introduces him to eccentric neighbors and a way of living his carefully ordered upbringing never prepared him for. Kou's rigid accounting of debts has little use among people who live by their own rules. His attempts to understand Nino become an equally difficult effort to reconsider what he owes others—and himself.

Apprentice witch Makoto moves to the countryside to live with relatives and continue her training. Between school, gardening, and finding her way around town, she encounters a quieter kind of magic: unusual visitors, hidden places, and small surprises in familiar routines. A gentle comedy about settling into a new home, where the supernatural is another part of everyday life. Makoto's training rarely separates neatly from the ordinary business of being a guest, student and neighbor. The pleasure lies in watching a familiar environment open into something stranger without losing its warmth or unhurried pace.
