 The 13th and final episode of Magia Record: Mahou Shoujo Madoka☆Magica Gaiden (Magia Record: Puella Magi Madoka Magica Side Story) ended with announcement on Sunday that a second season for the anime series is in production.Synopsis Rumor has it that if a young girl strikes a bargain with a white fairy, it will grant any wish her heart desires. However, in exchange, she will become a magical girl and must put her life on the line to slay fearsome and ferocious witches. Iroha Tamaki, a kind-hearted middle schooler from Takarazaki City, is living proof that these rumors are true. Armed with a magical crossbow and the ability to heal injuries, Iroha seeks out the labyrinths where witches hide and defeats them before they can prey on humans. Yet Iroha has no memory of her wish, and even Kyuubey, the white fairy himself, seems to have no idea what Iroha requested of him. One day, Iroha hears rumors of a city where "magical girls can be saved," and finds herself on a sunset train to Kamihama City. Unfortunately, she discovers that the witches in Kamihama are far more powerful than usual. After veteran magical girl Yachiyo Nanami is forced to save her, Iroha vows to never return. But when a chance encounter with a tiny Kyuubey seems to trigger distant memories, Iroha is compelled to investigate the mysterious city despite the danger. [Written by MAL Rewrite] The television series, originally scheduled for last year, debuted in Japan on January 5. Aniplex of America licensed the anime in North America and streamed it with subtitles on Crunchyroll, Funimation, and HIDIVE. Gekidan Inu Curry (Goku Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei opening director), an animation writer unit comprised of ex-Gainax animator Ayumi Shiraishi and 2D artist Yousuke Anai, served as the chief director and handled the series composition at Shaft. Yukihiro Miyamoto (Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica) acted as the assistant director. Other production staff include character designer Junichirou Taniguchi (Tada-kun wa Koi wo Shinai), chief animation director Nobuhiro Sugiyama (Nisekoi) and Hiroki Yamamura (Fate/Extra: Last Encore), and music composer Takumi Ozawa (Hidan no Aria). Anisong trio TrySail, composed of voice actresses Momo Asakura, Sora Amamiya, and Shiina Natsukawa, performed the opening theme "Gomakashi." Female J-pop duo ClariS performed the ending theme "Alicia." Magia Record: Mahou Shoujo Madoka☆Magica Gaiden serves as a spin-off to the 2011 anime series Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica. Aniplex launched the smartphone game for Android and iOS platforms in August 2017, featuring character designs by Ume Aoki (Hidamari Sketch). Manga Time Kirara Forward began serializing a manga adaptation by Fujino Fuji in August 2018. Houbunsha published the third volume on February 4.

| What the hell, Magia Record gets a second season but yet no sign of a sequel to Rebellion? Did the original mobage give Shaft a shitton of money or something, cuz I thought the fanbase had mixed opinions on this spin-off... anyway this is a genuine surprise. Didn't see the anime yet nor finish the original mobage, so idk how to feel about this. |
 |
| As expected. The penultimate ep introduced some interesting plot points that wouldn't have been addressed in one ep. The overarching story also needs more time to wrap up as well. Im glad that they decided to have a split cour instead of trying to rush everything though. Iroha and team certainly deserve it . |

| Glad to have it confirmed, the plot has some promise and not getting more of it would've been a shame. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Great news! Looking forward to today's finale episode even more now! It's going to be some ride next season, I can tell. |

| Excellent news. Always a highlight when these people are involved. |

| Well, I guess the leaks back then were kinda right. It just wasn't straight up 2-cour like they said at first. Still weird that THIS is getting more anime but not the OG Madoka tho. |
STOP SLEEPING ON ODD TAXI |
| they will bore us with another cour, great. So, where is that madoka movie 4? |
    |
| Unpopular opinion Magia Record > Madoka Magica So I am happy with getting a second season. |

Shaft has almost nothing to do with this getting a sequel much like they don't have with Madoka itself as they are the ones that invest less, with Aniplex and Houbunsha investing the most. And the opinion of the west from the people who don't play the game doesn't really matter when the "second season" was already planned since the beginning and the anime is basically like Fate Go adaptation in a way. |
| Wasn't this announced as a 2-cour originally and then changed to this format? Pretty sure this was planned to be 24-26 eps from the start |
  |
| wow season 2 for this but not the original masterpiece madoka? insane.. |
 |
| I-for one-liked this series and more of it is most certainly welcome. |
| Life Is Short But Intense. |
| Everyone is saying "Why is Magia Record getting more content but not the original series?" Magia Record can get more content because it was planned to have more content, so it can be expanded up through the Walpurgisnacht. I may not like Magia Record the same way I love (and religiously watch) Madoka Magica, but I still really like Magia Record, so I'm happy to get a season 2. |

| Sure why not. I'll be watching Madoka 2.0 when it'll come out. |
| Pshaw. Enough of this pleb tier magical girl franchise, just make a series with highscool Nanoha already! |
 |
| Thank goodness they're doing a second season because this season was basically a character introduction. Hopefully, this next season will have more plot/the plot will move forward a little bit faster. |
bread is yummy |
| LOL, the spin-off is getting more episodes then the main series. |
Bum Bum Dum Dum |
malvarez1 said: LOL, the spin-off is getting more episodes then the main series. It's simple because the story exists, unlike the main series. |
