Magical Renegades ~ Anathema to Commonsense



In a strange magical country, two rival time travelers head opposing factions wielding experimental magical weaponry.

Follow the tale of this group of mages that believe anyone has potential, but doesn't care that the odds are stacked against themselves! However, raw power isn't everything. Sometimes, they must think outside of the box even if it means going against commonsense!

Susana is an ordinary human living in 1884 in the city of C Flats. When she is an on errand, a time traveler from the future appears in front of her on the path! The time traveler introduces herself as Aurora, and claims that the Minions of Nemesis would soon overthrow the country but that Susana had a hand in overthrowing them but at a cost... The textbook that Aurora brought with her shows it! She offers to Susana the chance to stop this from happening and without the personal cost to her! Doesn't this offer seem too good to be true?


2 Shining, glorious transformation! Demonstration of the Nova-class mages!

Susana accepts the offer that the time traveler gave her to become a mage.

Katt is one of the onlookers and is the first to investigate! She meets Aurora, and Aurora notices that the school looks familiar and is a historical building. Katt explains the history, but someone isn't pleased!


7 Her Princess Title is in Another Timeline, but Her Ego is Now! Chelsea Appears!

Chelsea Chelsea Daisy Mallory III would've been the heiress to the palace that became that school! She introduces herself, but her rival Kayla scares her away! Katt and Kayla talk with Aurora. Katt asks some questions about the events Aurora witnessed. Kayla gives snark!

8 Those Clocks Can't Be Right! A Field Trip Gone Awry?!

The last of the 7-part recap. Susana looks back at the past since she joined the Magical Renegades and struggles with some unresolved questions.

27 One of Those Days Stranded in the Town Square? Here's Lucy! The Tour Begins!

On that night, the skies are calm except directly above the town where Renegade Midnight Conductor and a squad of the League's robots are fighting! Renegade Midnight Conductor's weapon is running out of power and she needs to make some difficult choices so she may avoid capture and keep the extra startup device she has from falling into the hands of the League!


33 Taking Her Chance on the Edge of Life! Holding on Against the Magic Surge?!

Is the initiation device that Katt caught going haywire or something else? She holds on to it, taking chances of her own. Renegade Knockout Tango keeps the enemies away but will this buy enough time?
