Magical Vacation: The Day Before the Seaside School is a four-page-long prequel manga illustrated by Shinichi Kameoka, taking place one day before the events of Magical Vacation.

Plot
After Miss Madeleine dismisses her class for the day, Kirsche and Sesame talk about their upcoming trip to Valencia Beach. Kirsche declares that spending the summer there will help him become a real man, and Sesame asks if that means he will ask Arancia to be his girlfriend. Kirsche bats Sesame over the head, saying his love for Arancia was only a stupid fantasy from their childhood. Just then, Arancia walks up to the boys with Pistachio and asks Kirsche if he wants to go shopping, but he rudely replies by telling Pistachio to be her pack mule instead.

Blueberry and Lemon overhear the conversation, so they decide to join in. Lemon pokes fun at Kirsche's irritability and how it may affect his relationships, to which Kirsche argues that there are no boys who are interested in her. Lemon and Blueberry are shocked by the rudeness of Kirsche's comment, so the former electrocutes him. Both girls leave as the Fire mage lays fried on the ground.

Cassis and Cider arrive shortly after, both of whom Kirsche dislikes. Cider improvises an exaggerated poem about the relationship between Kirsche and Arancia, but Cassis abruptly barges in when he hears that Arancia is not in a relationship. When he and Cider leave, Sesame wonders if his friend is okay with people swooning over Arancia. Kirsche could care less, telling Sesame that it means less people will be focused on his crush, Candy. The curious Insect mage recalls an instance where Candy said she was in love with another boy, making Kirsche incredibly furious.

Desperate for answers, the two boys try to figure out who Candy's love interest is, with their first exclusions being Chocolat and Latte. Sesame suggest they consult Olive, who supposedly has the power to fully understand people by simply looking at them. Coincidentally, Olive passes by and Kirsche asks if they can talk for a second. The Beast mage analyzes her classmate, answering his unspoken question by saying he should talk to Candy himself.

The next student they encounter is Cabernet, who tells the boys to be prepared for the seaside school vacation. Kirsche grabs the innocent puppet and accuses him of being the mystery crush, but Cabernet is completely unaware of what is going on. Realizing that his emotions got the better of him, Kirsche lets Cabernet go. He begins to panic, believing he will not be able to focus at camp if all he can think about is his crush's obscure infatuation.

Suddenly, Candy and Peche come to visit the boys, and the cheery Wind mage's presence is enough to reduce Kirsche's temper. Peche asks if he is in charge of lighting the campfire at Valencia Beach, then Candy praises her classmate's impressive Fire abilities. Kirsche, a nervous wreck, humbly accepts the compliment and bids the girls farewell. Sesame believes his friend had the perfect chance to ask Candy who she is in love with, but the Fire mage wonders if he is actually the boy of Candy's dreams. More determined than ever, Kirsche erupts with excitement and vows to do his very best at camp.
