The enchanting world of Secrets of the Silent Witch is set to return with its eighth episode on August 22, 2025. The new preview offers fans a closer look at Monica Everett’s continuing journey at the academy, blending everyday school life with hints of mystery and magic.
Takaomi Kanasaki, known for his work on Princess Connect Re Dive, is in charge of the storyboard and script for the upcoming episode, while Kazuho Kunimoto from Sword Art Online Alternative Gun Gale Online II is directing. With this talented creative team behind the scenes, Episode 8 promises a delicate mix of charm, tension, and emotional depth.
The episode will be available to stream on Crunchyroll and Bilibili. According to the official synopsis, Monica returns to the academy after being away for a week. Her friends Lana and Casey welcome her back in the student cafeteria, joined by Claudia, which quickly turns their reunion into a cheerful meal. The lighthearted atmosphere shifts toward excitement when they begin discussing the upcoming school festival. Casey reveals her plans to sell her embroidery at the charity bazaar, impressing Monica with her talent. She even offers to make a special embroidered piece just for her. Later in the day, Monica helps prepare the delivery of festival supplies alongside Cyril and Casey. However, their simple errand at the storage building hints at something unexpected that awaits them.
The series continues to be animated by Studio Gokumi, which has captured the gentle yet immersive tone of the light novel series written by Matsuri Isora and illustrated by Nanna Fujimi. The anime adaptation has been praised for balancing the quiet strength of Monica’s character with the enchanting world-building of Serendia Academy. Saya Aizawa lends her voice to Monica Everett, bringing both her timidity and hidden magical power to life with authenticity.
Secrets of the Silent Witch has its roots in the popular light novel, while Yen Press is publishing both the novel and the manga adaptation by Tobi Tana in English. With its unique focus on a protagonist who communicates little but carries immense magical strength, the story continues to stand out among recent fantasy adaptations.
Episode 8 looks to be a mix of heartfelt friendships, festival preparations, and a potential twist waiting in the shadows. Fans can look forward to another chapter that combines slice-of-life warmth with magical intrigue.
