Synopsis of Gushing Over Magical Girls
Hiiragi Utena has always admired magical girls and
fantasized about becoming a cool heroine who fights evil. So when a doll-like
figure approaches her one night, claiming to have latent magical power within
her, she trembles with excitement. But her colorful dream is quickly cut short
in an ironic turn of events when she transforms into a villain.
Uninterested in associating with the forces of evil,
she attempts to leave when a group of magical girls appear and declare war on
her. A battle ensues and Hiiragi soon discovers that she enjoys inflicting pain
on others as her true nature begins to emerge. “Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete”
follows Hiiragi in her new life as the leader of the villains, battling magical
girls and unleashing her newfound sadistic nature.
