The final season of Magia Record was an emotional roller coaster that made a conclusion far more satisfying than the ending of the original Madoka Magica series. While the character development might not have been as good, Magia Record had an improved setting that expanded on more of the Puella Magi universe. While keeping most of the original darkness of Madoka Magica, it also incorporates many themes and feelings present in “original” magical girl series, such as friendship and hope.


It’s honestly crazy how one anime girl’s quest to find her sister led to a surreal rabbit hole of teamwork, chasing hope, meeting the original cast, and leading to an amazing, emotional battle against despair and a terrifying deathmoth (which somehow becomes even scarier).


Making the last four episodes into a single season might be irritating to some, but releasing them like this allowed the animators to fill these four episodes with astonishing and fluid animation which surpasses that of the previous seasons. The final battle is amazingly deep, as iconic characters experience and overcome past and present drama as they fight against a potential apocalypse.


Magia Record featured both losses and lessons that led to a bittersweet ending that somehow ends on a happier note. While we won’t spoil what happens, we can say that this story is better made then the original series (excluding Rebellion, which is still a masterpiece).


Watch the ultimate conclusion of the suffering of megucas. (At least until Walpurgis Rising)
