The magical antics continue in the printed word!
The latest issue of Kodansha’s Nakayoshi magazine revealed that Magic Girls Precure! (Mahō Tsukai Precure!, a.k.a. Magic Users Precure!, Maho Girls Precure!) will get a manga adaptation. Futago Kamikita (Dokidoki! Precure, HappinessCharge PreCure!) is in charge of the adaptation, which will begin running in Nakayoshi‘s March issue.
Magic Girls Precure! is a follow-up to Go! Princess Precure, which kicked off on Japanese TV in February. The series will begin airing on on ABC and TV Asashi on February 7, 2016. Masato Mitsuzuka, who has worked on the PreCure franchise since Yes! PreCure 5 in 2007, will serve as director on the project. Emiko Miyamoto is serving as character designer on the project, while Isao Murayama (Majin Bone, Toriko) works on series composition.
The March issue of Nakayoshi will hit newsstands just days before the anime’s première, on February 3.
Magic Girls Precure! tells a tale across two vastly different worlds. Aside from our realm, a land known only as The Magical World exists as a place where witches and wizards call their own. The magically gifted refer to the world of humans as “Nashi Mahou-kai”, or “The World Without Witchraft.” Mirai Asahina is a 13-year-old girl who lives in the world of humans.
One day, a strange twist of fate sees Mirai meeting Riko, a girl of her own age from the world of witches. Riko was sent to the human world to find a powerful artifact known as the “Rincle Stone Emerald.” One thing leads to another, and the two girls discover that they can transform into legendary warriors Cure Miracle and Cure Magical by holding each others’ hands. With this knowledge in-hand, Mirai makes the decision to travel to the Magical World, so she can enroll in the Witches’ academy, and to be close to her new bestie Riko.
