Characters
Glenn Radars (グレン レーダス Guren Rēdasu)
Voiced by: Sōma Saitō (Japanese); Josh Grelle (English)
Glenn is lazy, and constantly bored by everything, with his primary focus being sleeping. He becomes the substitute teacher in Sistine's class, after the retirement of her favorite teacher. While he may seem incompetent, he is actually very skilled in magic, but not in the traditional sense. Glenn used to be as passionate about magic as Sistine but became disillusioned by it due to his past as the infamous assassin known as "The Fool." It is later revealed that he developed his own type of magic, called "The Fool's World" which negates the activation of all magic within a certain radius, including his own. However, this does not nullify spells that have already been cast. He uses this magic to stop enemies from using their own magic and then beats them using superior hand-to-hand combat skills. He cannot use combat magic fluently due to it being far away from his area of expertise, but he has an in-depth understanding of the concept of all types of magic, which makes him a good instructor.
Sistine Fibel (システィーナ tフィーベル Shisutīna Fīberu)

Sistine admires magic greatly and wishes to discover the secret of the Flying castle, which no one knows. She maintains a strict, no-nonsense demeanor throughout, and often scolds Glenn for his lackadaisical attitude. She initially hates Glenn, believing him to be as incompetent as he looked due to his lack of enthusiasm, however when he actually starts doing his job, she begrudgingly begins to respect Glenn as a highly effective teacher. As the series progresses, it seems as though she has feelings for Glenn, but is too shy to speak of them. She is called "Sisti" by Rumia.

Voiced by: Yume Miyamoto (Japanese); Monica Rial (English)
