“Magical Girl Site” Manga Gets 2018 Anime Series

Written By Samantha Ferreira

Trust me: you definitely want to read the terms and conditions on this magical girl site.

The wraparound jacket for the latest volume of Kentarō Satō’s Magical Girl Site manga (Volume 7) announced that the title will receive an anime TV series. The project is slated to hit Japanese TV in 2018, though specific details have yet to be announced.

For manga fans, news broke that the title will transfer to Akita Shoten’s Weekly Shōnen Champion magazine.

Magical Girl Site is a spinoff from Satō’s Magical Girl Apocalypse, which ended publication on August 12. The ongoing title launched on the Champion Tap! website in July 2013.

Seven Seas currently holds the domestic rights to Magical Girl Site, which they describe as:

Asagiri Aya is a young girl who has fallen victim to bullies at her school. Looking for a way to escape her troubles, she looks to the Internet for distraction, when a mysterious website called “Magical Girl Site” appears. Simply viewing the page is all it takes to hurtle Aya headlong into the deadly world of the Magical Girl Apocalypse. There, it’s fight or die, against a seemingly endless array of savagely adorable, frilly-skirted killing machines, each armed with magical powers and an unquenchable thirst for blood and chaos.
