From the title I thought this was going to be about making hats for magicians. I love the world building (A+ so far, though the idea of being able to keep magic secret is little hard to accept. I doubt that the series will focus on that so I think that I can lock in going forward.) and the fascination with the magic system (B to A+, depending on how well it explains advanced magic). The pacing so far is great: fast but doesn't feel rushed. I suspect that this will be my favorite show of the season.
I went back to look at the easy-to-see magic circles. It seems that there is a wide variety of sigils. The signs around the sigils seem to have less variety. And there seems to be some variations on the enclosing circles. The floating carriage and the forbidden spell appear to have 2-levels of nested magic circles. If this was a re-incarnation power-fantasy show, the protagonist would probably immediately aim to create 3+-levels of nested magic circles... but judging from the forbidden spell, 3-levels might have the potential to instantly destroy cities.
How the magic circles function with stone formations is a little bit of a mystery for now, I guess you could just say that there's durable special ink (or whatever the ink's made of) in the cracks.
It's widely considered one of the best magic systems in all media on par or above with Sanderson's Mistborn series.
Well now I'm properly excited for this series.
