Full-time comic artist

A bright future seems impossible and extremely distant.

This comic is a tragedy in itself.

The death of Mami Tomoe, the truth about magical girls, Sayaka becoming a witch, Kyoko Sakura's mutual destruction with the mermaid witch, and Homura Akemi's tragic life.

She keeps reincarnating, trying to find a glimmer of light in this dark and desperate world.

But darkness is ever-present, and the last flame could be extinguished at any moment.

Perhaps magical girls are destined for tragedy.

"I'm going to watch it!" Ken Miyano mustered his courage and continued watching.

As always, Homura Akemi was no match for Witch Night.

A building crashed down on Homura Akemi, pinning her leg under a rock and rendering her unable to move.

"Why, why? No matter how many times I try, I can't beat that guy..."

Her confidence was gradually disappearing.

When Homura Akemi wanted to reverse time and start over, she remembered Kyubey's words.

Her reincarnation aggravated Madoka's karma, and her actions ultimately not only failed to save Madoka, but instead brought her closer to the witch who would destroy the world.

Homura Akemi was too exhausted to continue.

Her beliefs crumbled.

The girl was sobbing bitterly in the ruins, her body trembling.

In her tears of resentment, the Soul Gem on the back of her hand gradually turned black.

Tears fell to the ground, splashing up a spray of water.

"Is it over?" Ken Miyano murmured.

Of course not. When Homura Akemi was in despair, Madoka Kaname appeared.

She held Homura Akemi's hand in hers and gently comforted her.

Then they faced the Witch's Night.

Kyubey was right next to Madoka Kaname.

Its goal is finally about to be achieved.

From the very beginning of the manga, Kyubey constantly tempts Madoka to become a magical girl.

"Xiaoyan, I'm sorry."

In the dark ruins of the city, shadows shrouded everything, and the witch roamed freely behind them, while only Madoka's smile blossomed.

……

"Watching 'Puella Magi Madoka Magica' really made me very sad."

"I feel the same way."

"The story of a girl struggling without hope is more heartbreaking and poignant than works like Magical Girl Duel, which are simple, dark, and cruel."

"My heart is pounding."

"As long as the heart doesn't twitch, then everything will be fine."

"In short, I'm very sad."

A group of students were discussing it.

In one company, many employees talked about "Puella Magi Madoka Magica" during their breaks from work.

"Did you watch that again?"

"Of course!"

"Ugh, this is so disheartening."

"I don't want to work anymore."

"Thinking about it carefully, facing a sudden crisis that changes the course of one's life, going to work, which is a waste of time, is truly a luxury."

"The everyday routine that we take for granted is a miracle."

They both stood up, looked at each other, and smiled.

"It's three o'clock, let's go out for a drink."

They walked out of the company with their heads held high and chests out.

Seeing this, the section chief scratched his head and said, "Have these two kids gone mad?"

……

"When I saw Xiaoyuan smile, I felt as if my despair was about to end."

"Xiaoyuan can cry and feel sad. But beneath her frail body, she seems to possess a strong heart."

"I feel she can work miracles."

"Is it finally time for Kaname Madoka, the 'burden' character drawn by Tori Akino-sensei, to shine?"

In most parts of Japan, wherever young people gather, they inevitably discuss "Puella Magi Madoka Magica".

They flipped through the 19-page comic book over and over again, eagerly anticipating the next week.

Higashino Ichiro arrived at the agreed-upon fishing spot.

His companions had all arrived. They had just set up camp and were now chatting together. When they saw Higashino Ichiro, they immediately waved.

"Higashino-san, do you know the ending of 'Puella Magi Madoka Magica'?" Nakano asked.

His grandson is obsessed; he's always absent-minded, his mind filled with images of Xiao Yuan.

“I never care about these things.” Higashino Ichiro shook his head.

"Tch!" someone scoffed.

Higashino Ichiro looked over, and the man coughed twice uncomfortably.

"Heye-kun, you care about this too?"

He Ye was the youngest in their group, around thirty years old.

Because of the economic crisis, he lost all the savings he had worked so hard to accumulate over half his life. Now he either watches cartoons or goes fishing, and he's completely laid up.

"I didn't." He Ye shook her head uncomfortably. "How could I possibly like magical girls? Impossible, impossible!"

"Oh."

Higashino Ichiro left them and found a good spot not far away, where he began to spread out his large collection of fishing gear.

The others dispersed, but He Ye remained standing there, looking at Higashino Ichiro with a hesitant and longing expression.

"Okay, okay, Higashino-san, I care about it terribly! Please take care of Tori Akino-sensei and make sure Madoka and the others have a happy ending!"

Higashino Ichiro remained silent.

"I admit I raised my voice just now, I'm so sorry! I don't want to see Homura Akemi cry, sob sob sob."

Higashino Ichiro gazed into the distance.

"Please, Higashino-san, talk to me!"

"Huh?" Higashino Ichiro took off his headphones. "Are you talking to me? What did you say?"

……

After completing all the original manuscripts for "Puella Magi Madoka Magica," Hibiki Higashino was planning to go on a trip with Akemi Akimiya, unless there was some post-production work to be done, such as the color illustrations for the collected volumes.

It's October now, so going to Hokkaido should be a good idea.

Nishimura said his child was about to be born, so he was going to go and see him.

In the end, he still fell for the peasant girl.

As for Higashino Mirai, he has his grandparents to take care of him, so his parents can go out and have fun without worry.

Anyway, the child is still young and won't remember anything.

"When I was drawing comics, I thought about relaxing and then going on a revenge trip," Higashino Hibiki muttered to himself as he leaned against the second-floor balcony, holding a glass of water. "But now I'm still just wasting my time."

He sighed, tilted his head back, and let the water trickle down his throat.

"Ah, brother!"

Someone downstairs was pointing at me, their voice sounding like a clamp.

Hibiki Higashino looked down and saw that it was his voice actress sister.

“My foolish sister, you never come looking for me unless it’s something.”

"I was so worried, but you're so carefree, brother."

The stairs made a "thump-thump" sound as Higashino Mei arrived on the second floor, and very quickly, she stood in front of Higashino Hibiki.

"What's wrong?" Hibiki Higashino asked her lazily, looking at the wall.

"Of course it's 'Puella Magi Madoka Magica,' brother!" Mei leaned closer to Hibiki Higashino. Her face was even rounder, and her eyes were still wide and innocent, revealing a naive foolishness. "Go easy on her! I'm so worried that Madoka will become a witch too. That world would be too hopeless!"

“Oh,” Hibiki Higashino nodded.

"You better feed me properly."

“Ah, I’m sorry,” Higashino Hibiki shook his head, “I’m currently in a lazy state after finishing a busy day.”

It's about energy conservation; I don't want to do things that aren't necessary.

He only ever thought about traveling.

“Ah, you mean 'Puella Magi Madoka Magica'?” Higashino Hibiki was a beat slow on the uptake. “But, but…”

"But what?"

"The original manuscripts have all been submitted!"

"What about the content? What did you draw?"

"Content? What was the content again? Let me think..."
