The Mahoako SM (Sugoku Moriagatta yo) Dai Kansha-sai event announced a second season for the Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete (Gushing over Magical Girls) television anime on Saturday.

The first season by animation studio Asahi Production aired in Winter 2024. Sentai Filmworks licensed and simulcast the anime on HIDIVE with subtitles and dub.

The anime adapts Akihiro Ononaka's comedy fantasy manga, which began on the Manga Life STORIA Dash website in March 2019. The manga also ran in Manga Life STORIA magazine before it suspended its publication in July that year. Takeshobo published the 11th volume on January 17.

J-Novel Club licensed the manga in English for digital release in March 2022. The ninth volume went on sale on January 24.

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. [Written by MAL Rewrite]
