The anime's story is set in Maebashi City, Gunma Prefecture, and follows the coming-of-age story of five high school girls. First-year high school student Yuina Akagi lives an ordinary but unfulfilling life. One day, a mysterious frog named Keroppe scouts her and four other girls to become the “Maebashi Witches”. Suddenly, a cabinet in her room is connected to a mysterious space that transports the girls to a magical flower shop where they sing, dance, and make other people's wishes come true.
Sunrise is credited as the original creator of the anime. Junichi Yamamoto (Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke's Mansion, Anyway, I'm in Love with You) is directing the anime at Bandai Namco Filmworks and PROJECT MBW, and Erika Yoshida (Bocchi the Rock!, Tower of God both seasons) is in charge of series scripts. Nozomi Tachibana (Kemono Jihen) is designing the characters based on original character designs by Inami Yū.
Additional personnel include:
The five main characters collectively known as the Maebashi Witches will perform the opening theme song “Sugosugi Maebashi Witches!” (Super Awesome Maebashi Witches!) Producer Tsunku (insert song composition, lyrics for the movie Precure All Stars New Stage 2: Kokoro no Tomodachi) wrote the lyrics for the opening theme song and TORIENA composed the song.
