Kuzumi Taiga is a young and passionate individual with hopes of getting into Seinagi Private High School. During his entry interview, Kuzumi is asked by one of the interviewers what he would do if he could wield magic, and responds by stating he’d take over the world. Sadly the school rejects his application. Kuzumi vaguely remembers the young girl who laughed at him when he blurted out his answer during the interview. He places blame on her as to why he couldn’t enter, but stubbornly walks around outside of the school trying to get in. A barrier blocks him from doing so, but Kuzumi is then dragged in by a teacher who mistakes Kuzumi for another student, and Kuzumi realizes that this school he applied for was actually a school for magic.

Mx0 is funny right off the bat once you read it because of how defiant Kuzumi is, and the fact that despite getting denied entry he somehow gets in anyway. He has no magical powers whatsoever and so now he must cope with all of his peers around him having all of these powerful spells, while his only power is to talk too much. At some point the manga slowly turns into a Rom/Com which is fine, because it blends in well with the school life scenario and with all of the twists and turns that happen after the first few chapters, you’ll be hooked by the elements of surprise.

Madoka feels this strange sense of familiarity when she recognizes a young dark-haired girl who joins her class.

She initially had no interest in magic, claiming it was just all made up rubbish and wanted no part in it, that is until she witnesses the mysterious girl battling the very same cat she saw in her dreams. The cat-like creature known as Kyuubey approaches her again with the very same question in her dream, as to whether she’ll become a Puella Magi in exchange for her deepest desires, and from here Madoka’s life changes forever.

One fateful wish throws Madoka into a world of uncertainty, as she now must fight alongside other magical girls in a struggle to save the world from despair and chaos. What’s really great about their powers is that it comes directly from their souls, and so if they don’t commit to acting in a justly way, their souls become dark and cloudy much like the enemy. It’s unique in a way because most powers stem from certain weapons or parts of the body, but Madoka must nurture her good spirits to get through this twisted world full of surprises. Plot twists, powerful magic, and cute girls is all you need in this award winning manga, so check it out.
