Those Awaiting a Star: Part 2 (星待つひと:中篇, Hoshi Matsu Hito: Chuuhen) is second OVA of Mahoutsukai no Yome: Hoshi Matsu Hito.

Summary[]

After taking shelter in the library, Chise becomes acquainted with its owner and proprietor, Riichi, the Magician of the Forest. Although fun and poignant, their time together takes a dark turn when Chise notices a book on the front desk by the library entrance.

Plot Overview[]

Chise gives a tepid response to Riichi calling himself the Magician of the Forest, which irks him. He then assures Chise that the spirits cannot enter the library, and when he tries to find a book for her to enjoy, Chise tries to leave. However, Riichi gives her a library card before she does and formally introduces himself.

Time passes, and Chise's life at home is increasingly becoming more burdensome for her relatives. While walking through the park, she encounters a bifurcated ghost who scares her back into the library. There, Riichi finds Chise huddled in a corner all alone and leaves her with a metal box for her to take. That night at home, Chise rummages through her backpack and finds the homework papers for her book report.

Chise returns to the library the following day and asks to use the books there. Riichi allows it and explains that Chise is an official member with her library card, but she's only allowed to take out one book at a time. Furthermore, Riichi states that Chise can return to the library daily if she wants to and, from there on out, would do so, reading many books by herself or with Riichi.

Back at home, Shouji contacted someone pleading to release him from his guardian duties watching over Chise as his wife and kids have left him because of her.

Eventually, while reading a book at the library, Chise realizes that despite reading several books, she hasn't chosen a book for her book report. Noticing a book on the front desk, Chise asks about it, which causes Riichi to draw a pregnant pause and then frantically check it. After he does this, Riichi asks Chise quickly leave for the day as it starts to rain outside. By the front entrance, Riichi learns, after asking if Chise's mother would be worried for her, that no one worries for her and explains her living situation at home. In light of that, Riichi decides to look for a book for Chise's book report, but locks the entrance doors before they do.

While looking for a book, Riichi gives Chise the book "The Lonely Little Star". Riichi then illuminates a multi-colored orb that causes the entire library to sparkle and shine like a starry night when it is turned off. The sight intrigues Chise and makes her fall asleep on the library floor, where Riichi lays beside her, resighting a verse from the book. After this he takes Chise's library card and shreds it, promising the library that Chise will never return, and by doing this, teleports her back to her room.

The next day, Chise had trouble entering the library, but managed to enter through the back entrance. When Riichi discovers that Chise is there, he demands to know how she got there. Moments after this, a swarm of rats barges in through the back entrance and devours all of the books, and most of them form into the giant masked rat from before. The giant rat uses its maws to bite into Riichi who pleads with Chise to escape; however, she is knocked unconscious.

A brief flashback involving a woman named Mayumi who was acquainted with Riichi is shown. When it ends, Chise awakens to find Riichi, assuring her that the rats are gone. He then asks that Chise deliver a book to Mayumi and faints due to missing part of his right side.
