Yamazaki began drawing the fantasy supernatural manga, also known as Mahoyome, in Monthly Comic Blade in November 2013 before switching it to Monthly Comic Garden due to the former ceasing serialization. Mag Garden simultaneously serializes the manga on its MAGCOMI website and published the 17th volume on March 10. Mahoutsukai no Yome has a cumulative 10 million copies of its volumes in circulation.

Wit Studio produced the Mahoutsukai no Yome: Hoshi Matsu Hito (The Ancient Magus' Bride: Those Awaiting a Star) three-episode prequel original video anime, bundled with the sixth, seventh, and eighth volumes from 2016–2017. The 24-episode television anime premiered in Fall 2017, adapting till the ninth volume.

Seven Seas Entertainment licensed the manga in English in October 2014 and published the 15th volume last October. The 16th volume is scheduled for an October 25 release. The manga is also published in multiple foreign languages, including Polish, German, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Finnish, and Brazilian Portuguese.

The Nishi no Shounen to Seiran no Kishi (The Boy from the West and the Knight of the Blue Storm) original video anime, produced by Studio Kafka, is being bundled with special edition of volumes 16–18. The 18th volume will ship with the third and final episode on September 9.

Synopsis
Despite having the ability to see otherworldly creatures, Chise Hatori has never considered herself lucky. Ever since her parents abandoned her at a young age, it has been the center of her hardship, driving her to the point of selling herself to the slave market, just to secure a place she can call home.

Presented to the bidders as a rare ''Sleigh Beggy''—beings who have an unusually high affinity to magical energies—Chise's last remaining hope appears in the form of Elias Ainsworth, a mysterious magus more beast than man. Rather than keep her as a slave, he has decided to make her his apprentice, as well as his bride.

Chise is not only physically transported to the English countryside where Elias lives, but also introduced to a world where wondrous things such as fairies and dragons are the norm. But she soon realizes there is as much to fear in her new life as there is to marvel at. And lying at the heart of it all is the question of whether she has fallen into the hands of something much darker than her own inner demons. [Written by MAL Rewrite]
