Sentai Filmworks will release the series on Blu-ray Disc in both a standard and premium edition on February 27. The premium box set will include a hardcover booklet, art cards, and lenticular bookmark.
The anime premiered in October 2016 and streamed on The Anime Network, Crunchyroll, and Viewster.
Cocona is a model honor student, cautious and slow to embrace new opportunities. This makes life complicated when a mysterious girl named Papika suddenly appears, fearlessly searching for a wish-granting crystal called the “Shard of Mimi.” When fates collide and they're given the ability to transform into powerful fairy-like beings, where will the dangerous journey into “Pure Illusion” take them?
Pure Illusionist is credited with the original work for the series. Kiyotaka Oshiyama (animation director for Space Dandy, Dennō Coil, Xam'd: Lost Memories) directed the anime at Studio 3Hz (Celestial Method, Dimension W). Takashi Kojima (Your Lie in April, Kokoro Connect animation director) designed the characters and served as chief animation director, and tanu (original character design for Tari Tari, The Rolling Girls) was the conceptual artist.
