''Grim Grimoire'''GrimGrimoire''''' is a 2007 [[Real Time Strategy|real-time strategy]] game brought to you by [[Vanillaware]] and [[Nippon Ichi]].
 
It tells the tale of a magically-gifted child called Lillet Blan, who gains admission to a renowned [[Wizarding School]] called the Tower of Silver Star. There she meets an eclectic ensemble of students and teachers- the [[The Obi-Wan|mysterious and bearded old headmaster]], the sarcastic and [[Obviously Evil]] Sorcery teacher, and the cold but perceptive honor student, to name a few- and learns about the four schools of Glamour, Necromancy, Sorcery and Alchemy.
Line 10:
After taking the sensible approach of alerting her teachers, [[Adults Are Useless|only for it to result in spectacular failure]], Lillet realizes that her only chance of averting her fate and escaping the time loop [[It's Up to You|is to do it all herself]]. Along the way, she'll delve into the history of the school and discover dark secrets about practically every member of the facility, including herself.
 
''Grim GrimoireGrimGrimoire'' wears [[Harry Potter|its inspirations]] on its sleeve, and none the worse for it. Though the plot has been described as weak, the characters more than make up for it, with a whole school full of freaks and lunatics barely capable of organizing their own twisted love lives, let alone a workable school.
 
This might explain why [[It's Up to You|they're all totally useless]].
 
----
A [[Video Game Remake]] ''GrimGrimoire OnceMore'' featuring extensive story additions, a fully voiced story (at the cost of a new set of CVs), and overhauled gameplay was announced in 2022 for July 2022 release.
