The magical girl we deserve...

Isn't she just an American police officer? Can't move in until the victims are finished off, "The sound of children screaming has been removed", etc. I never knew America had so many magical girls..

I get that it's prolly 'dark' comedy for the tag but surprised no tragedy/psych tag lol. Wonder how much mascots have control of who they pick, i guess it makes sense to choose younger innocent girls in that case

Just call it population control 8D; tho maybe it's to 'build chara' like how all the madoka charas are practically tortured and persevere anyways but while it does seem cruel it is true that most normal ppl wouldn't step in as a bystander to come to the rescue if they see stuff happening , but that kinda 'meter' does seem like BS as opposed to just having magic lol

Nice, we are getting back to basics, that's some good old psycho-horror-comedy

 

[Airzpool]

This magical true job is to make sure humans are not overpopulated.

Thanks for the food frens. Hamita cooking again with the short stories. I so look forward to the day where he gets a honest-to-God romcom serialized and it ends up being a major mainsteam hit à la Kaguya-sama or Rent-a-Whore. Something with zero darkness involved. That would be hilarious. His quick sketches and doodles are great, imagine if he had like a dedicated editor and even assistants... I want promising Pixiv/Twitter guys to get a shot at making it big...

You wrong for that... but you're right, conceptually.

This kinda of existential thought is in line with the authors best works.
If only it wasn't a short comedy and instead a long and drawn out psychological drama.

Thanks for the translation spinning_donuts

Kind of reminds of https://mangadex.org/title/6b9c97a4...511ed/yakushoku-distopiary-gesellschaft-blume, the world has special 'heroes' to fight powerful demon lords and the mc is one of them. Except he, and likely every other 'hero' is extremely low-leveled and weak. So how do they fight? Well, the 'hero' skill comes with a special power-up, you get levels of people you kill, and it is temporary. So mc kills a bunch of high-leveled humans(most/all tricked, governments are keeping lid on the specifics of the skill from general populace) each time he has to fight a demon lord. Dropped that one, too dark for me, in the very first chapters an adventurer girl falls in love with mc, and they even have an affair. She gets hurt in an accident, there's a demon that needs to be taken down, and she can't help him. So what happens? Mc lops her head of, she was just 'fuel' for his fight all along because she was high-leveled, and would have been offed regardless of if she had gotten hurt or not...
