Magia Record: Puella Magi Madoka Magica Side Story (Japanese: マギアレコード 魔法少女まどか☆マギカ外伝, Hepburn: Magia Rekōdo: Mahō Shōjo Madoka Magika Gaiden) is a Japanese role-playing video game developed by f4samurai for Android and iOS, which was released by Aniplex in Japan on August 22, 2017 and in North America on June 25, 2019. The game is a spin-off of the 2011 anime series Puella Magi Madoka Magica, and features a new protagonist named Iroha Tamaki, who arrives in Kamihama City to search for her missing sister.
A manga adaptation has been serialized in Manga Time Kirara Forward magazine since August 24, 2018, illustrated by Fujino Fuji. A stage play adaptation was also produced in 2018. An anime television series adaptation of the game produced by Shaft aired between January and March 2020, with a second anime season in production.
Plot
A white creature named Kyubey has the power to grant girls any single wish. In exchange for that wish, however, they must become magical girls and fight against creatures known as Witches. A rumor soon begins to spread among magical girls that they can be saved from their duty by going to Kamihama City. Iroha Tamaki, a girl who had originally forgotten the wish she had made to become a magical girl, one day encounters a smaller Kyubey and remembers that she made a wish to cure her younger sister Ui of her illness. Realising that Ui has become missing somehow, Iroha travels to Kamihama City in order to find answers, encountering many other magical girls along the way.
Gameplay
Magia Record is a turn-based tactical RPG that features battles with magical girls on the right side of the screen and witches/familiars on the left side. The player must attack enemies on the left side with magical girls that they have collected and chosen onto their team by choosing three of five attack disks found at the bottom of the screen. There are three types of attacks that the player can use: "Accele", which boosts Magic Points (MP); "Blast", which can target multiple enemies in a row or column; and "Charge", which boosts the impact of the attack following it. Attacks are automatically boosted if all three disks chosen are of the same type of command or are from the same character. After a magical girl attacks three times, the player can use an attack disk associated with that character and drag it to another magical girl on their team to "Connect" and add special effects on the receiving character, such as healing them. Magical girls are also able to use skills (found at the bottom right of the screen) and "Magia" (bottom left of the screen).
The game's main story is separated by chapters, which are further separated into episodes. Once an episode is completed, the player receives rewards, experience points for each magical girl in the team, and rank points from the battle and can replay the episode as well as move on to the next. If the player loses a battle in an episode, they can continue by using Magia Stones, one of the in-game currencies.
One magical girl is automatically put onto a team, but the player can select up to four additional magical girls, which can be received from the game's Fate Weave feature. The Fate Weave feature can also be used to gain Memoria, Enhance Gems, and Destiny Gems.
Development and release
The game was officially announced at the Shaft 40th anniversary "Madogatari" event in September 2016.[3] The producer of the original anime series, Atsuhiro Iwakami stated, "Since it seems that it will take some more time until the anime's new work, the idea that I want to make a title that "Madoka Magica" is active will work.[4] Ume Aoki, the character designer of the original anime series was also responsible for the game's character designs, in which she designed more than 10 new and original characters for the game, including the main protagonist Iroha Tamaki.[3] The opening animation and magical girl transformation scenes was produced by Shaft.[5] The game is produced by Yusuke Toyama and Masaki Sato.[5][6]
Magia Record was originally scheduled to be released in May 2017.[7] However, it was pushed back to July and then again to its current release date, August 22, 2017.[8][9]
Aniplex of America produced an English version of Magia Record that was released in North America on June 25, 2019.[10] A pre-registration campaign was held for its release, where at least 25,000 people pre-registered for the English release of the game.[11] On August 28, 2020, it was announced that the North American version of the game would be shutting down at the end of the following month.[12][13][14]

Iroha Tamaki is a magical girl who cannot remember the wish she made with Kyubey in order to become one. While meeting up with another magical girl named Kuroe, she learns of a rumor that magical girls can apparently be saved if they go to Kamihama City. The two suddenly find themselves caught up in a Witch's labyrinth on the train they were riding, which soon merges with that of another Witch residing in Kamihama. It is there that Iroha briefly encounters a younger-looking Kyubey before another magical girl named Yachiyo Nanami appears and defeats the Witch, warning the others to stay away from Kamihama. The next day, as a result of her encounter with the small Kyubey, Iroha remembers she had a younger sister Ui, whose disease she wished to cure. | |||||

Wanting to investigate the mystery concerning Ui's disappearance, Iroha heads to Kamihama City to visit Satomi Medical Center, only to discover another Witch's labyrinth. There, she encounters a team of magical girls, Momoko Togame, Kaede Akino, and Rena Minami, who offer to help her search for Ui. Unable to enter the medical center's wing, the girls try to convince Rena to use her transformation magic to sneak in, only for her and Kaede to end up fighting with each other.

After Kaede is abducted by the Chain Witch, Iroha is introduced to the group's coordinator, Yakumo Mitama, finding that Yachiyo is also a part of the team. Managing to convince Yachiyo to help them, the girls write their names on the Friendship Ending Staircase, with Rena's honest feelings towards Kaede luring out the Chain Witch. As Rena reunites with Kaede in the labyrinth and makes up with her, Iroha once again spots the Small Kyubey, which leads the girls to the Witch's weak point. After defeating it, Yachiyo suspects that what they faced was not a Witch, but something else entirely. Although Rena's investigation of the medical center turns up nothing on Ui, she does learn about two other girls that appeared in Iroha's dream, Touka and Nemu. Meanwhile, Mami Tomoe is asked to investigate Kamihama City on the behest of Kyubey, who can't enter Kamihama himself. | |||||

After the people who were held captive by the Chain Witch reappear, Iroha, believing Ui's disappearance may be related to one of the similar rumors going around, is sent to meet a magical girl named Tsuruno Yui. She ends up leading her back to Yachiyo, who tells them of a rumor concerning a Seance Shrine that allegedly allows people to meet someone they want to see. As the three tour through each shrine in the area for clues, seemingly ending up with nothing, they encounter a Witch in a supermarket, which Tsuruno manages to defeat. Realizing that the Seance Shrine only appears at night, Yachiyo brings the girls to one of the shrines, where Iroha once again finds the small Kyubey. While Tsuruno stays behind to fight the Seance Shrine's familiars, Iroha and Yachiyo enter the Seance Shrine's labyrinth, where they encounter the vision of not only Ui, but a girl named Mifuyu too. | |||||

As Iroha finds the Ui before her to be a fake, Yachiyo seems convinced that the Mifuyu before her is the real thing, who tries to get her to stay. This Mifuyu tries to attack Iroha, but Yachiyo realizes that it is an imposter and defeats it, after which Iroha uses her own Grief Seed to clear up Yachiyo's Soul Gem. As the true monster of the Shrine appears, Iroha starts becoming affected by the murkiness of her own Soul Gem, leading her to call forth a mysterious creature, which kills the Shrine monster. Just as the creature begins to turn against the others, Mami appears and blasts the creature away, freeing Iroha. After suspecting Iroha of being a Witch and questioning the others about the strange happenings in Kamihama, Mami takes her leave, warning Tsuruno not to trust Yachiyo. Waking up to find her Soul Gem mysteriously clear, Iroha spends the night at Yachiyo's house.

Experiencing a string of lucky occurrences from drinking the Lucky Owl Water, Iroha hears from Yachiyo that something bad will apparently happen after 24 lucky things have happened. As Iroha, Felicia, Yachiyo and Tsuruno search for the "Uwasa" behind the Lucky Owl Water, they are confronted by a group of girls known as the Wings of the Magius, who offer Felicia the opportunity to eradicate all Witches if she works for them. | |||||

Later that night, Mifuyu comes by the villa to ask Iroha to join the Wings of Magius, inviting her and others to attend a lecture at a place called the Memory Museum the next day. Arriving at the museum, they are confronted by the other girl that appeared in Iroha's dreams, Touka Satomi. Meanwhile, Momoko meets up with Rena to tell her about what happened to Yachiyo a year ago. | |||||

Touka, who states that she has no memories of Ui either, explains to Iroha and the others that a magical girl's Soul Gem literally contains their very soul, while Momoko and Kaede relay this same information to Rena. Mifuyu then shows Iroha her memories, in which Kanae, who was allied with her, Yachiyo, and Momoko, died after her Soul Gem was shattered. Soon afterwards, another one of their allies, Mel, turned into a Witch when their Soul Gem became fully tainted with despair, leading the girls to realize that they had been tricked by Kyubey. As Mifuyu felt the despair of carrying this knowledge, her Soul Gem became contaminated, but instead of becoming a Witch, she spawned a Doppel, which Touka reveals to be a system that she had created to offer magical girls liberation. | |||||

Coming to retrieve Iroha, Yachiyo tells her that she plans to disband the team, believing everyone who stays by her side is fated to die because of her own wish to survive. Despite this, Iroha remains firm in staying with Yachiyo, promising to prove her doubts as false. As Mami, who has been brainwashed by the Magius, tries to stop Yachiyo from escaping the museum with Iroha, they are rescued by another magical girl, Sayaka Miki. When Mami goes berserk and launches a full-out assault on Sayaka, both Iroha and Yachiyo summon their Doppels to fight against her. As both Iroha and Mami get caught up in the collapsing museum while Sayaka carries Yachiyo to safety, it is revealed that several other magical girls, including Tsuruno and Kaede, have joined with the Magius. |
