Synopsis

A team of three magical girls known as Tres Magia protects the town where Utena Hiiragi lives. Like many others, Utena loves these magical girls who valiantly fight in the name of justice. One day, a mysterious black mascot character appears before Utena and grants her the opportunity of a lifetime: a chance to transform into a magical girl.

However, the offer is not what it seems, as Utena has been recruited for an evil organization to fight the magical girls she has always admired. Utena is then forced to confront Tres Magia in battle; but instead of feeling remorse, she unexpectedly finds pleasure in inflicting pain on the magical girls. Completely giving in to her desires, Utena embraces her role as a villain, slowly transforming her adoration for magical girls into a new sadistic obsession.

My review for this anime is good in a certain sense, good for the yuri part, good for the ecchi part, good for the unusual story concept about Mahou Shoujo so it seems like a unique story.

For animation, it can't be said to be very good or bad, which is standard for a similar action genre anime where it doesn't show much martial art choreography, just showing the fight between witches.

Mixed Feelings
Before I start, there needs to be one small note. There is a big difference between English translation and Japanese from what Ive read. In English translation the characters are made way younger than they are originally. If Ive read correctly, the characters should be in high school, around 17-18. English translation says they are 14. This is just for your note. There is also one character, but she isnt really sexualized as herself in the anime/H.
Now the show. I like the overall idea of the show. Quite the deconstruction of the evil side in Mahou Shojo genere with a huge 18+ twist. I wont ...

Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete falls short and feels largely forgettable. While it includes some risqué scenes, it doesn’t offer anything particularly fresh or unique. The character designs, especially concerning age portrayals, are questionable and may not be in good taste. The production quality is notably low, with animation that feels stiff. Although there are a few brief moments where the art direction and animation stand out, these instances are rare and amount to only a few seconds of screen time. Both the story and plot are lackluster, and the fight scenes are disappointing. Despite the anime’s efforts to attract viewers with provocative content, the raunchy ...
