Mia and the Forbidden Medicine Report Kindle Edition
Mia and the Forbidden Medicine Report will transport fans of series like Harry Potter and Japanese anime into an exciting new magic academy adventure with a steampunk spin!
During an age of magic, Mia Baumann is born in a prosperous country where the greatest fear is illness. Ever since her sick mother was wrenched away from her and locked behind the walls of the Sanatorium, Mia fought to get accepted by the prestigious Royal Academy as a Pharmacology student in order to find a cure for her disease.
Demon Claw and Angel Tears are the two malevolent diseases that ravaged Isea Kingdom after they conquered the small island nation of Radius. The first is highly infectious and its victims are quarantined; the second drives mages insane.
After admission to the academy, the unthinkable happens—Mia forms a cross-department research team with the nobleman law student Felix, the valedictorian medical student Henrik, and the bear-like mage Mathias. However, there are others who will do anything to stop the team from discovering the dark secrets behind these two diseases.
Find out if Mia will stand her ground despite bullying, isolation, and magic attacks, to unveil the deeply hidden truth in this mystery shoujo light novel!

- Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2019What I expected was a Harry Potter adventure with a lot of romance but what I got was much more wonderful and really unexplainable forgettable!
The strong female lead, Mia, is on the quest to find a cure for her mom. She's not one of those incompetent girls but a girl with some medical experience and passion. She saves the day the first day but she goes through the roughest part of any educational journey. Social groups and trying to pass the class in ways you wouldn't imagine. The relationships she shares with the characters are fun, loyal and dynamic. I need there to be a second novel but I understand that it may not have one. I just hope that this company will translate more light novels like this. I've liked the novels they've translated so far because they've helped me through rough parts in my life. I do hope they'll come out with the second volume of this series and more please! I need to know more about what happens to the characters and Demon Claws. I felt like this book just touched the surface of this world and I want to see more of everything! Please bring a sequel!
- Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2018It was fine for a chance in the pace of the usual light novels.It does become evident who the main source of conflict is around midway, but the focus on the story is something that I really enjoyed.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2021I love everything about the books from cross infinity worlds but I'm not sure how mia and the forbidden medicine report is like Harry Potter but I love it anyway and I hope volume 2 will have a paperback version soon!!!!!! 😁
- Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2018I couldn't put this book down. Wished their was a sequel to it. The characters were typical of a shojo story but the plot focused on discovering a cure for Demon Claw instead of the romance which kept me interested in it.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 8, 2019A nice somewhat fluffy at times novel. Deals with politics and the military industrial complex in interesting ways. Charters are good, not a lot of development happens but the main cast is enjoyable.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2018If you ever had a lot riding on one paper, you can relate to Mia. Chances are, however, that you didn’t believe your research was the one thing that could save your mother.
Set in the mythical Kingdom of Isea, village girl Mia is accepted as a pharmacology student at the national academy. While many of her classmates are content with getting a thesis topic from their instructor, Mia is insistent on doing her own idea and getting money for her research. She can’t do her Grand Plan alone though, and when she reveals she wants to do her research on the plague known as Demon Claw, she finds herself not only isolated but threatened as well. Fortunately, she manages to get three students to join her team: Felix, a law student repeating his first year, Henrik, a blunt but practical medical student, and Felix’s mage friend (and babysitter) Mathias.
Right away, some of you are probably rolling your eyes. Another harem story where everyone is interested in the heroine. Well, first off, Mathias is only in the group because of Felix. Secondly, the story never dissolves into being a fullblown romance. Mia isn’t a complete dunce when it comes to romantic interest, but she is focused on her research goals. She is also concerned Felix has just become attached to her because she helped him during a panic attack. Many main love interests have emotional scars, but we don’t often see an actual condition like PTSD. It’s Henrik who has more of the standoffish qualities typically found in the main hero/heroine, but both are rather supportive of Mia. Felix in particular throws his full weight into fulfilling Mia’s dream, and it’s been a long while since I’ve seen someone be that determined to help, especially in a non-gushy or light love story like this.
Also unlike many current licensed light novels, Mia and the Forbidden Medicine Report is a stand-alone story. It is very much what the title says: Mia and her report, not Mia and her years-long study or career. Perhaps author Yamamoto will write a sequel one day, but for now, the story covers the four students trying to get a grant despite opposition and lack of research materials on Demon Claw.
It’s a bit of a different feeling, as other authors would have spent volumes on Mia and her team narrowing down a topic, pouring over files for clues, creating a proposal, and trying to implement social change. There’s a lot that needs to happen with a mission as ambitious as Mia’s, and it takes a little while for the story to find its groove. The early chapters are a bit heavy on explanation, but medical jargon and whatnot are virtually nonexistent. There is some skipping or shortening of scenes and some perfectly-aligned sets of circumstances. If the story were ever adapted to some other medium, I’d love to see the dramatic moment when Mia finally presents her stubborn professor with a finished Grand Plan or really show the months ticking by. The ending is conclusive enough to be a full story, but there is still plenty of room for the author or even fans to build upon.
Case in point: the steampunk setting. I remember feeling shocked when robotic guards were suddenly mentioned about 40% of the way through so I didn’t get that impression at all when I was reading, although looking back, there are a few easily-missed references to “autobikes” and the like. I just assumed it was a typical fantasy world with some modern conveniences like automobiles. Robots obviously aren’t a huge issue when the subject of the story is about researching human diseases, but if the author was going to have automatons, I wish the story would have done something with them. At the very least, you’d think the major academic facility would have a department where students work on new or improving technology.
Or, you know, it felt pretty unnecessary considering the light novel was rather unique. I mean, not having someone whisked away to a land of magic is already fairly uncommon in the current light novel market, but an average girl whose only special ability is hours of memorizing herbs and treatments? It makes Mia and the Forbidden Medicine Report have a surprising realistic feel to it despite the existence of magic and mages going berserk. It’s rare to not have “beating the demon lord” as the ultimate goal to stop a disease. Plus, the artwork was perfectly placed in the story, and the dialogue felt more natural compared to some other Cross Infinite World works. I believe it’s also shorter than some of their other recent releases, so I’m sure that played a factor.
You may think that a story about writing a report is about as much fun as actually writing a report, but good characters, a deep-seated mystery, and a dash of magic make Mia and the Forbidden Medicine Report a light novel worth reading.
