Saya Aizawa stars as Monica Everett, the Silent Witch, and the livestream shared a video comment from Aizawa:

The original novels debuted on Shōsetsuka ni Narō in February 2020, and Kadokawa began publishing the light novels in June 2021. The seventh volume was released on February 9.

A manga adaptation by Tobi Tana launched in Kadokawa’s B’s-LOG COMIC in July 2021, with the fourth compiled book volume shipping in Japan on May 31.

Yen Press licensed the Silent Witch novels, describing the story:

Monica Everett, the Silent Witch, is the world’s only practitioner of Voiceless Magic, a veritable heroine who single-handedly fended off the Black Dragon of legend. However, the young prodigy is actually…super-duper shy! Yup, turns out she only learned Voiceless Magic to avoid speaking in public. Ignorant of this, the Seven Sages have placed her on a top-secret mission to guard the Second Prince. Can Monica keep it together as she contends with both social interaction and the evils targeting the young royal?

Yen Press also licensed Tana, Isora, and Fujimi’s Secrets of the Silent Witch manga.
