The Saint's Magic is Overpowered	comment	Sei Takanashi is your average Japanese salarywoman: terribly overworked, constantly stressed out, and without the time, the opportunity, nor the energy for things outside of her career like friends, family, or romantic life. After yet another night of working extreme overtime for at her job, she enters the tiny, empty apartment she lives in... but with a circle of light suddenly appearing beneath her then a flash of light, she suddenly finds herself in a medieval European castle, surrounded by robed priests, knights, and cheering aristocrats.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })As is quickly explained to her, she was part of a ritual to summon a "Saint", a benevolent, powerful magician who would slay the monsters and purify the miasma threatening to overrun the kingdom of Slantania and the rest of the world. However, there's a problem: instead of just one person from another world, there are two, Seiya and a much younger, much more conventionally attractive, and innocent girl, Aira Misono.While the priests are rightfully confused, Prince Kyle Slantania has no such reservations and immediately marches forward and kneels before Aira, introducing himself and sweeping the kingdom's new "Saint" off her feet.With no precedent, no way to get Sei back to her world, and feeling terribly guilty about this incident, the kingdom decides to let Sei stay in the castle, visit its related facilities like the Royal Research Institute, and spend her time as she pleases. Without TV, video games, or the ability to talk a stroll in the woods without getting attacked by bloodthirsty monsters, and with the castle residents mysteriously avoiding her and not even bothering to visit, Sei finds herself terribly bored—until she accidentally stumbles on an herb garden full of familiar plants like lavender and oregano.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })A friendly scientist from the Institute, Jude, introduces her to the concept of potion-making, and with a past hobby in herbalism, Sei quickly becomes a researcher making potions and studying herbs' effects. As everyone quickly learns, however, Sei's magic is overwhelmingly powerful and her past-life knowledge allows her to make groundbreaking innovations and discoveries that threaten to rock the nation and upset the balance of power. Add budding romances with handsome men, encroaching monsters and miasma, and friendships with nobles and other residents of this world, and Sei's life becomes very interesting indeed.The Saint's Magic is Overpowered (聖女の魔力は万能です) is a webnovel written by Yuki Tachibana, originally published and still hosted on Shōsetsuka ni Narō. It was later adapted into a light novel, illustrated by Yasuyuki Syuri, a manga adaptation drawn by Fujiazuki, and then an anime adaptation by Diomedéa, currently airing during Spring 2021. It is licensed by Kadokawa Books, Kadokawa Shoten's ComicWalker website. The official English translations of both the LN and manga are handled by Seven Seas Entertainment.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })

The Saint's Magic is Overpowered / int_1c5002bc	type	The Stoic
The Saint's Magic is Overpowered / int_1c5002bc	comment	The Stoic: Captain Albert Hawke is called the "Icy Knight" due to how few expressions and emotions he expresses on or off duty. It makes Sei very surprised as he's nothing but jovial, kind, and expressive when around her, though that turns out to be specifically towards her.

The Saint's Magic is Overpowered / int_1d9a2764	comment	Reality Ensues: It's quickly discovered that Sei has incredible stores of magic, can create mid-to-high level potions even as a total beginner, and can even create supremely delicious meals that can significantly boost the diner's physical capabilities. As she's not officially the "Saint" of this world, is an otherworlder without any knowledge of the dangers nor the people of this world, and is pretty useless in combat and can't defend herself, the Institute and the officials of the castle both very quickly restrict her from showing off the extent of her power and capabilities, lest enemies and ill-intentioned people take advantage of her skills by kidnapping her or having her murdered.

The Saint's Magic is Overpowered / int_38718ea8	comment	Beautiful All Along: Played with. Sei looked terribly ill and just plain terrible due to sleep deprivation, malnutrition, and overwork. After getting several weeks to feed herself properly, rest, and enjoy herself, she "transforms" into a strikingly beautiful woman. The locals attribute this to her powers but it was all inevitable or a complete accident, like Sei's homemade eye-bag cream somehow curing her eyestrain and giving her 20/20 vision.

The Saint's Magic is Overpowered / int_6bccf2ba	comment	Supreme Chef: After Sei saves the Third Order of Knights from crippling injury or death, she asks for a kitchen at the Institute and quickly gets one. She quickly makes great use of this by using medicinal herbs as flavorings for chicken and other dishes, greatly improving the bland, tasteless quality of everything she's eaten so far. Unfortunately, she quickly has to stop cooking in public or for others as the Institute quickly discovers that her powers have significant empowering effects, making a soldier fight with the strength of two; for Sei's safety, it's quickly kept under wraps.

Aside from getting decent meals for herself and everyone at the Institute, she also accidentally invents buff food, boosting the physical capabilities of anyone who eats her food. Sei also creates extremely effective cosmetics and skin treatments like eye-bag cream and anti-acne ointments, thanks to her knowledge of modern medicine, herbalism, and her power amplifying the effects.

This is because she arrived haggard, unhealthily pale, and sickly looking from all that overwork, the residents believed her ill, and their standard procedure is to give her space and time to recuperate and rest by her lonesome.

However, she does get visibly excited the first time that she discovers the Institute's herb garden and proceeds to prove over and over again how much of a natural she is with herbs.

As illustrated by the anime in episode 2, some sort of magic from the ritual appears to render the world's language (written or spoken) into Japanese for Sei's convenience; this even extends to languages that even locals cannot understand with ease, like the "Ancient Script" used for many of the foundational magical texts.

The Saint's Magic is Overpowered / int_ce6555f0	type	Lighter and Softer
The Saint's Magic is Overpowered / int_ce6555f0	comment	Lighter and Softer: Probably due to budget restrictions and TV regulations, the anime adaptation tones down a lot of the gore and the ugly details. For example, in Episode 1 of the anime, Sei stumbles onto the Third Knight Order who've been badly mangled and injured by a Salamander, a fire-breathing, high-ranking monster. The original text describes deep scratch wounds, serious burns, and so much blood that Sei believes a young girl like Aira might lose her mind seeing so much gore and suffering. It's especially egregious with Captain Hawke, who has half of his upper body charred black and Sei wondering how in the world he's still alive. In the anime, they're all just covered in scratches, blood, and bandages, but nothing too grievous or disturbing; Hawke still looks badly bloodied and battered but without a scorch-mark to be seen.
