Summary- Magical Destroyers will DESTROY your heart. Came for the girls development, left when it was ruined.
Im not going to pull my punches here. Im an avid lover of psych. mystery and horror etc. And this anime just flat hurts. I grew to love the silliness and quirkyness of the girls. I accepted the cliche and niche otaku trope. But i couldnt accept the end or any of the major plot. I loved the characters and hoped for a nice resolution. Only for ragebaiting levels of denial and the erasure of their entire development to be given. Stop watching after you see what you
...
want. Listen to the ost maybe. Its a banger. Im very upset over the loss of a good plotline.
The gritty details
Shortly before the ending the entire plot goes stale to spicy to stale again randomely.
I got nothing to say negatively about personality for any of the characters. Backgrounds are blank slates and the mystery is "cringe". I thought they did well and got their goals to the finish line. But right before we get a promised rise to the top, the author has all the effort, progress, identity, stripped and burned like their otaku culture. Almost rage baiting levels of denial.
You could leave the anime at a good note after their Wanku concert is over. I dont suggest finishing it or at minimum dont take it to heart how the twist reverses all the point of the story.
I got invested specifically in the dynamic of the magical girls discovering themselves and their past or reason to exist. For them to have a climactic fight against superior foes. Only to be defeated and struggle to win despite it. Like a bleach esque fight.
But. They didnt get that. In fact. The prize for winning was losing everything they were. All the personality. All the reason to like them. Not to mention the dark ending making everything meaningless.
At the very. Very end. You get 1 single line. The catchphrase said a lot. Thats it. Make your guesses about what that meant. Infer what you can about the future. About how much the magic girls cried and suffered about their fate. Just for everything to end right there.
