Gushing Over Magical Girls (魔法少女にあこがれて, Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Akihiro Ononaka. It was first serialized in Comic REX in 2020 and quickly gained popularity for its unique take on the magical girl genre. This series is a dark comedy, subverting the usual tropes of magical girl stories by blending traditional magical girl themes with mature and violent elements.
The story focuses on Hiiragi Utena, a high school student obsessed with magical girls and their pure-hearted, justice-driven personas. However, her fascination takes a twisted turn when she meets a magical girl who reveals a darker, more violent side of the magical girl world.
The manga explores themes of obsession, identity, and the contrast between appearance and reality in the world of magical girls. It pushes the boundaries of the genre, often mixing humor with mature and sometimes grotesque situations.
Hello fellow Deviates,
PSA: I have updated my tagging model and scripts to be more specific and consolidating were appropriate, as such the tags used will be more numerous, some will not be required depending on the generation wanted BUT the models should work much better , be more versatile, and of a higher overall quality. Feedback is appreciated.
From me to you. Here's what chat GPT has to say:
Utena Hiiragi:
Utena Hiiragi is the main protagonist of Gushing Over Magical Girls. She is a high school student who initially has a deep admiration for magical girls. She idolizes their beauty, purity, and strength, but this obsession quickly turns dark when she becomes entangled in a world of magical girls that are far from what she had imagined.
Utena's character starts as an innocent and somewhat naive girl with a pure-hearted love for the concept of magical girls. However, her view is shattered when she encounters the magical girl Venalita, who introduces her to a more corrupt and violent side of the magical girl world. Utena's obsession with becoming a magical girl drives her down a path where she ultimately transforms into one herself—but not in the way she had idealized.
Throughout the series, Utena wrestles with her identity, trying to reconcile her original view of magical girls with the harsh reality she now faces. Her character development is one of the core themes, as she transitions from a fan to someone who becomes deeply involved in the magical girl world, leading to dark and often violent outcomes.
