Human cloning is not only possible, but practiced in the world of Afterschool Charisma. St. Kleio Academy is a school where clones of historical figures from Einstein to Joan of Arc to Hitler are raised and taught, often to study their originals, or “carry on”; a vague concept not completely explained. Shirou Kamiya is the only student there who is not a clone, having been the son of one of the scientists involved in the project and the school. Afterschool Charisma is a school life drama, but also a look into the ethics of cloning, humanity and one’s destiny in life.
