If we review the most popular series of the season Winter-2024 (January-March)you will surely find it a surprise that a magical girl ecchi like “Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete (Gushing over Magical Girls)” is pretty high on the list. It is the story of Utane Hiiragi, a magical girl fan who sees her (half-way) dream fulfilled by becoming Magia Baiser, the great villain.
However, she discovers that she takes extreme pleasure in punishing and humiliating the magical girls she admires so much, which sparks an interest in remaining a villain and continuing to punish her heroines. But of course, the story alone is not attractive enough, or so it seems. Since each new episode goes viral on social networks due to the high ecchi content shown in the punishments that Magia Baiser inflicts on the magical girls. The content is such that you can see nipples, crotches and butts, obviously without reaching any hentai content.
There is already an uncensored version that is broadcast on AT-X television, however, The version that will be included on the Blu-ray/DVD will apparently have even less censorship, as reported in the communications. In fact, Some select episodes of this version will be screened at the Cinem@rt Shinjuku on March 17, 2024 in Japanalso featuring a talk by the participating voice actresses: Yuuko Aisaka like Matama Akoya and Minami Tsuda like Nemo Anemo.
This screening will be for adults only, and tickets will go on sale starting March 6 in Japan. What will it be like to watch a hard-ecchi on a movie screen then? Obviously this curious movement did not go unnoticed in the comment forums:
- «Will they provide disposable tissues at the entrance to the cinema?».
- «Oh yeah, come on!».
- «This is a joke?».
- «I would love to go, but they put it on a day when I will be on a business trip, there is nothing to do».
- «It seems that only the weirdest will go to these screenings».
- «Why do they do it on the same day as the “Mahou Shoujo Ikusei Keikaku (Magical Girl Raising Project)” recital? The fanbases of both franchises are definitely the same, so they should take that into consideration.».
- «I wonder if I can go, I have to work that day».
- «I’d really like to go, but the thought of watching this kind of series surrounded by other men seems pretty weird to me.».
