Great series! I can't wait to get into vol. 2 (whenever that will be) and read about Madoka and her friends. The author note in the back suggests that the anime was first so now I don't feel as guilty for seeing it first ^_^[*Some Spoilers*]Puella Magi Madoka Magica is the story of Madoka Kaname and her journey into the world of magical girls. However, this is not a happy story. It gets very dark pretty fast... within the third chapter. It ends abrubtly with the arrival of a new magical girl in town and she does not plan on leaving.Will Madoka make a contract with the myterious Kyubey or take the advice of the new transfer sudent Homura Akemi? Homura's interest in Madoka is quite perplexing. You don't really know what her intentions are. Is she good or bad? Is she being selfish or trying to save Madoka? It's anyone's guess at this point. "After having a strange dream, middle schooler Madoka Kaname is surprised to find the girl from her dream, Homura Akemi, enroll into her school. Later that day, Madoka and her friend Sayaka Miki are approached by a magical girl named Mami Tomoe and a strange creature named Kyubey. Kyubey offers the two girls the chance to have any wish granted, but in return they must become magical girls and fight off demons known as Witches. As Mami shows Madoka and Sayaka how she uses her powers to help others, Homura, who is also a magical girl, is against the idea of Madoka becoming one. Just as Madoka is about to consider becoming a magical girl, Mami is killed in battle against a witch, which devastates her and causes her to change her mind. Later though, when Madoka gets involved in a witch attack along with her classmate, Hitomi Shizuki, she is rescued by Sayaka, who becomes a magical girl after wishing to cure the hand of her childhood friend Kyōsuke Kamijō, who she has a crush on."Started reading this without knowing anything about it except that it was a total of 12 Chapters. Never expected it to be this good.
What do You think about Puella Magi Madoka Magica 1 (2013)?
I don't trust that magical creature and its manipulative tactics!
