otaku oriented magical girl
Anime
Magical girl anime can be divided into 2 camps:
morning time magical girl: shows which air in the morning targetted at children (doremi, card captor sakura, etc)
late night magical girl: shows which air in the evening or late at night, targeted at adults.
Within those late night anime, some are simply raunchy comedy parodies, some are grimdark edgy interpretations, and some are what I would class as "otaku oriented magical girl", ie, shows which earnestly create a magical girl story line but targetted at otaku.
what counts in this final category is subjective, as the lines between types are blurry, so some of these items may fall somewhat into the grimdark or raunchy comedy categories, but here I try to list everything I think classifies as otaku oriented magical girl anime.
