The Herstilanean Chanter is a magical girl fanime created by MewYuki23 of YouTube.
Synopsis[]
Chanting or singing has been known to affect many things in life. Some can cause drought. Some can cause floods. Some can hypnotise. Some can balance light and dark. Some can even cause death.
Chanters are well spread throughout the land, and only a few exist in a small town called Herstilanea. For 20 years, the old man who ruled the town was controlled by Olenia, a hypnotist chanter, aged 43 at this point in time.
This is when Karin was born.
Karin is a water chanter, and has the power to manipulate any amount of water, anyway she wants to. She is assumed to be one of the most powerful chanters throughout time. She got the hang very well during her childhood.
17 years later, she hopes to save the town by releasing Olenia's control, but it is chanted wrong and she is banished from the town of Herstilanea, for Olenia fears that she knows it, and it was only a mistake.
She finds herself in a forest, staggering around for over a year now, managing herself close to well, when she meets another chanter like herself, who has powers over plants. This is Evelyn, who suffers from amnesia, and isn't the most powerful chanter out there. What's an 18 year old water manipulater to do with no luxury, little to no resources, and only one mediocre plant chanter? Watch and find out.
Magical Girl?[]
The Herstilanean Chanter is regarded as magical girl, but belongs to a subgenre of its own, for The Herstilanean Chanter involves no transformation, and is not done in the common magical girl style.
