Preliminary (6/12 eps)
This show touches on many controversial themes such as rape, domestic violence, suicide and extreme bullying (in the first episode). The first episode is where you see a cluster bomb of edgy concepts, which the main character Aya Asagiri is suffering from. I thought that the series was going to make a unique twist to the already famed Madoka Magica that was a magical girl series that had a great psychological and realistic perspective to the genre that made it unique to begin with. But it seems that Magical Girl Site copies those ideas made by Madoka and makes it worse. I dont know if it's the edginess or the bad written main character that made it go under for me. Though, I am still watching this, because it's so bad that it makes me laugh (not to offend fans).

So, if you are interested in this series, I would suggest the manga instead of this show, as the manga has a better pacing than the show. The core concepts are still in the manga, but the composition of the story is better.

This show did not cut it for me after 6 episodes, but it had great potential with its concepts that could have explored more of the magical girl genre. But with many shows, it was executed poorly because of the bad pacing and writing.

Overall: 3/10
