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 tales 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.

Where it came from
Maerchen Maedchen was produced by Hoods Entertainment and aired in 2018 as a fantasy television series based on a light novel series by Tomohiro Matsu. The story centers on a high school student named Hazuki Kagimura who discovers a magical world connected to classic fairy tales, where girls known as Maedchen are chosen by their respective stories to wield magical powers.
The production is notable for its troubled history, experiencing significant delays and quality fluctuations during its initial broadcast. While it aimed to blend the whimsical nature of literary fables with the structure of magical girl anime, the series faced substantial criticism regarding its animation consistency, leading to the temporary suspension of its broadcast schedule before the final episodes were released later that year.
