Junketsu no Maria
Synopsis: Maria is a powerful young witch who lives with her two familiars in medieval France during the Hundred Years' War against England. As the war rages on and innocents are caught in its destruction, Maria becomes frustrated with the situation and begins to use her magic to try to prevent further conflicts in the hope of maintaining peace. However, her constant intervention soon attracts the attention of the heavens, and the Archangel Michael is sent to prevent her from meddling in human affairs. The divine being confronts Maria, and he forbids her from using her powers, issuing a decree that her magic will be taken away if she loses her virginity. Now labeled as a heretic, Maria vehemently refuses to heed Michael's warning and continues to disrupt the war between the two nations. But when the church begins to conspire to strip the witch of her power and put an end to Maria's interference once and for all, her peacemaking abilities may come to an end soon.
