Hajime Yatate (the nom de plume for Sunrise’s collective staff) is credited with the original concept. Mitsue Yamazaki (Hakkenden: Eight Dogs of the East) is directing the project at Sunrise, with Kumi Ishii (Rozen Maiden, OreImo) providing character designs. Tomoko Konparu (Nana, Dance With Devils) is in charge of series composition.

Crunchyroll describes Magic-Kyun! Renaissance as:

Creating the ultimate culture festival with 6 boys!
The magic-kyun school life begins!!

A world where art becomes magic.

In this world, people who can inspire passion with their Magic Arts are called Artistas, and are employed in show business. In Hoshinomori Private Magical Arts High School, where Artistas are taught, a strange new student named Ohana Aigasaki transfers into the school.

Ohana is placed on the planning committee for the school’s yearly Hoshinomori Summer Festa cultural festival. She spends her romantic school life with six other boys who aim to become entertainers in the future.

Each of the boys specializes in his own Arts, and aims to make Hoshi Fes a success. In addition, the boys also aim to be chosen alongside Ohana as the school’s Artista Prince and Princess, only chosen once a year.

A Magic-kyun for you! A new renaissance starts here! Magic-kyun! Renaissance is a multimedia project where you can create great memories with Artistas of greatly varying personalities!
