Gushing Over Magical Girls

Gushing Over Magical Girls is an 18+ TV anime blending comedy, fantasy, GL, and slice-of-life elements. Based on the manga by Ono Nakayoshi Akihiro, the series is produced by Asahi Production, directed by Atsushi Otsuki, with series composition by Toru Kimura. Featuring Utena Hiiragi, Kiwi Araga, Korisu Morino, Matama Akoya, and Nemo Anemo, this title delivers a distinctly unconventional take on the magical girl genre.

Gushing Over Magical Girls is set in a world where magical girls serve as the protectors of justice, dazzling the public with their colorful transformations and heroic deeds. Utena Hiiragi is perhaps their biggest fan — an ordinary girl whose admiration for these champions borders on obsession. When a fateful opportunity presents itself and she finally gets to transform herself, Utena expects to stand shoulder to shoulder with the heroes she has always idolized. Instead, she discovers that destiny has something far more unexpected in store: rather than joining the side of good, she finds herself cast as a villain leading the forces of evil. Caught off guard by this shocking twist of fate, Utena must confront a reality that is nothing like the magical girl story she always dreamed of living. A fresh and unconventional take on the magical girl genre begins here.
