Secrets of the Silent Witch anime is based on a light novel written by Matsuri Isora and illustrated by Nanna Fujimi. It was initially launched on the Shosetsuka ni Naro website in February 2020. Fujimi Shobo later acquired it and began publishing it under their Kadokawa Books imprint in June 2021.
A manga adaptation illustrated by Tobi Tana began serialization on Enterbrain’s B’s Log Comic manga website in July 2021. Yen Press licensed both the Secrets of the Silent Witch light novel and manga in English, describing the story as follows:
THE SHIEST WITCH YOU’LL EVER MEET!
Monica Everett, the Silent Witch, is the only mage in the world who can use unchanted magecraft, a true hero who singlehandedly defeated a legendary black dragon. However, this young genius is actually…super-duper shy! That’s right: She learned to cast spells silently just to avoid speaking in public, and despite her power, she has zero self-confidence. Now Monica has been tasked with secretly guarding the second prince. Can she keep it together as she faces both the evil forces targeting the prince and the terrors of social interaction?
