| The manga centers on Mira, the clever brains behind an evil organization that invades and destroys everything in its path. One day, a magical girl named Byakuya Mimori decides to stand up to the organization, and Mira falls in love with her at first sight. leme guess.. the "evil organization" is a bunch of dudes? |

| It's from the late author of Inu x Boku SS, so if two main leads gonna have similar dynamic, then I'm all sold! I'm also a sucker for those villain x hero romances. It's by BONES on top of that! Hype! |

| @Piromysl I was also attracted by the fact that the manga was written quite a long time ago (the first chapter came out a year after her last anime) and consists of only three volumes. So technically they could adapt the entire story, presumably creating an original ending for the anime. |

| I don't like magic girl anime but since it's made by studio bones I might give this a chance. |
| Hmm, so the manga remains unfinished due to the author dying. I wonder if BONES will do their own ending. |
Bum Bum Dum Dum |
| Hopefully this'll have an original ending to conclude the story. |
