Magia Record: Puella Magi Madoka Magica Side Story Season 1 is now streaming on both Crunchyroll and HIDIVE, offering English dub and subtitle options. This 13-episode run adapts the first season of the spin-off to the seminal Puella Magi Madoka Magica franchise.
Animation studio Shaft, renowned for its distinctive visual flair on the original series, returns to animate this expansion of the magical girl universe. The story follows Iroha Tamaki, who arrives in Kamihama City seeking her lost sister, only to find herself entangled in the city's unique magical girl system and the mysterious "Doppel" entity. The series retains the franchise's signature blend of psychological drama and urban fantasy, delving into the harsh realities and existential costs of magical contracts.
Fans of Puella Magi Madoka Magica will find familiar thematic territory here, as Magia Record explores the darker side of the mahou shoujo genre through a new lens and cast. With the second season also available, viewers can immerse themselves in the complete narrative arc of Iroha's story.
