Story
The anime takes place in a world where technology and magic coexist. At the Magic Academy, Cocoa receives a recommendation from the Ghana class teacher on how to cast a spell to summon the spirit of the tree. Cocoa, meanwhile, finds the chocolate bar and eats it. However, it turns out to be magic chocolate, which is already more than two hundred years old. Cocoa begins to feel lethargic and faints. Later, he wakes up in bed next to a lovely green-haired girl, who turns out to be the woody spirit of Hinano in the body of a wooden puppet - Hinano. She seeks to find Cocoa. Together they will face new demons and other strange creatures.
