Since everyone else is sharing their Magia Record story... Making this video was like book ends for me. I became interested in Magia Record because of online magical girl transformation compilation videos. I was a day one player for the North American server-- I became really obsessed with the quotes the girls would say, so I started my first youtube channel and uploaded clips of what they were for anyone else who was curious. This grew into recording Magical Girl Stories, Events, and Log-in stories, but it was a slow process. When the NA EOS was announced, I dealt with my sadness by recording as much content as possible. I actually damaged my eyes by focusing on screens too much. I became acquainted with the Magia Union Translations server and started recording videos for Antimony and friends. Then a bunch of copyright claims started to go out, targeting the music used in the videos. At this point I started hosting and paying for a google drive to upload everything to just as a backup. We were able to get videos back up by filing disputes but we were all really nervous for a few months on what to do. Additionally, since a bunch of channels were now no longer hosting magia record recorded game content, I decided to make this second channel and host those too. And at the end of JP EOS, I've gone full circle. I started by being interested in this game because of the cool transformation video compilations, and now I've made one of my own. It's a weird sense of closure. I'm not a youtuber, I barely know what I'm doing with editing and I don't earn money off this channel lol. But I really loved this game. Thanks for reading :)

Thank you so much for your efforts! After they closed the NA servers it was hard to find much properly organized Magia record content in English, or translated and organized at all. Your channel and 29udon (who did translations for Scene 0) are lifesavers for Madoka Magica fanbase still interested in Magia record and the franchise as a whole. I can't thank you enough. If you don't mind me asking, will you continue to cover future content, like that upcoming Madoka Magica mobile game (Magia Exedra) when it comes out next month? I'd appreciate if you can. Hopefully if it's in Englisht/NA I'll play but it would be really great if it was also recorded as well.

@@KA-lj3wr Also want to give a shoutout to the Magia Union Translations channel! I got to help make it and set it up. The folks at MUT do so much, they definitely kept my love for this game alive. Sadly, I won't be covering future content here. My lack of impulse control and gacha games are not a good mixture, so I've decided not to play the next game-- or at least if I do, I don't want to put myself in a position where I feel like I need to get every character for archival purposes. I'm sure that there will be dedicated folks who step up to the plate to do so though!

Ive only played the game once but that was because my phone storage is non existent and I got into Magia Record and all things Madoka Magica because of those transformation videos. Like no joke I could not stop watching them during the pandemic, and if it wasn’t for videos like these I wouldn’t be such a huge nerd about Madoka Magica and I wouldn’t have an ongoing manga collection of the series-

IroKuro being the last unit is so bittersweet

Man. I remember when I saw that Magia Record was coming to America. My mum and I were so happy when it finally released. (I had watched Madoka with my mum and she LOVED it). I remember saving all of my gems for Tart for when she finally was released State side. I had a good amount saved up, but I NEVER GOT her. I forget why, but I had spent my gems on something and RIGHT after I did, Tart released. I was so frustrated with myself. Mum and I had a decent enough laugh over the poor timing on my part... And then, here comes my mum, casually coming over to me "So I got the girl you wanted..." Needless to say. I was a LITTLE bitter. XD My mother later got Godoka as well. Needless to say, she had all the luck We were both so upset when we heard the game was ending in America, we were both so upset. And right when we learned about Little Kyubey having a drop in Japan. I was so excited to grab the little guy. But, ah well. I would show her some of the new characters that would drop, and she ended up not liking where some of the transformations went with how...*cough* Fan servicey it got. But she also had expected that from the start anyway. I was showing her one of the newer characters when I found out the Japanese servers were ending. Like...wow. We didn't expect that. My mother and I haven't found a game that peaked our interest and KEPT it quite like Magia Record did. The closest for me was Pokemon Masters EX, but even that didn't keep my attention like this did.

This is such a special memory you've shared with me. I absolutely love that your mother played with you; how absolutely wholesome and wonderful. Thank you for sharing.

Something this game was great at was distinctive and strong characters. And for the most part, every single transformation portrays at least one notable characteristic and style. They’re all memorable, and every single one is at least one person’s favorite. It’s a wonderful achievement, and I’m glad to have been able to enjoy it during the game’s lifetime.

there's something poetic by ending this with the MagiRepo ones

Magia Record was the reason I discovered Madoka Magica and how it became one of my most favorite things and it also inspired my ocs so if it didn’t exist I wouldn’t have been able to create them

Magia Record what a journey... this was the first game i was so serious about playing, I joined the EN server and when it shut down I migrated so fast to jp because i was that in love with the characters and story... I read so much lore, i was so deeply invested in the community, it brought me so much joy and now its all coming to an end... I hope we'll get to see all these wonderful characters once more in the new game... Iroha and co you will all always have a special place in my heart

Wow what a journey. I remember hearing about the game's existence around it's launch, but my phone at the time was too shitty to even play it. I then got a better phone and got the game around the second tart event and I have not abandoned it since. Magireco was a really special game and I'll miss it dearly once it shuts down. See you in magia exedra :') Edit: the summer alts have some banger music, especially the Amane sisters. And after all these years, my favorite transformation remains og madoka

It’s so sad to hear this game is shutting down! It really kept the community alive while we waited for walpurgis rising

5:07 I would like to think that this claw machine is based of all of the witches Madokami could’ve chosen but she decided to choose Nagisa (ignoring the banner in the bg 😭)

Thank you for making this video! Oriko and Kazumi only getting 3 characters is crazy tho.

Thank you so much for this! Even with the dip in quality with some of the more recent ones, the transformations are such a big part of what’s made this game so special. Though it’s pretty uncertain if Magia Exedra will have transformations too or not, I’m really hoping that it will.

I remember seeing one where all the girls transform at a very high speed with the music of rebellion "We're here for you"

I only got into magireco about half a year ago. Im sad that its shutting down, but im glad ill be able to catch up on all the content some time, thanks to all your archiving!

56:44 Guess they really pulled out all of the stops for pride month

I've watched the Puella Magi Madoka Magika anime tv shows and movie. (Havent had a chance to finish the spin-off tv show yet nor have I played the game. ) The fact that you committed a lot of time to record Magia Record game transformations shows great dedication and passion. Wonderful work!

Thank you for your work...this feels like a small nostalgia trip to the time when I used to watch this in 9th grade^^

This is game is amazing, even if EN got shut down after a couple years . Hoping Magia Exedra can exceed MagiReco. Also Yuna is my personal fav transformation

I’m going to make this my entire personality for the rest of this year at least thank you so much for this!

Thank you it’s nice to see the transformations it’s sad the game is going away but at least there are videos of it

Thank you so much for all your hard work Muffin ❤

Thank you so much for posting them! Man, this game brings me back memories. I remembered I used to watch the transformation videos on youtube few years back. I was so excited for when it was released in NA. I was struggling with mental health, school, and home life. This game helped me cope with it. Especially the characters and stories with it. I’m happy there’s people out there that also enjoyed the game. ❤️

Just sat through this entire thing, thanks for doing this!!

If only Momoko anime version and ToukaNemuUi are actually unit 😢 What a waste opportunity. They already have transformations but decided not to do something with it

Thanks for the dedication. I hope you well❤❤

WAIT THE GAME IS SHUTTING DOWN??? MAN… i have never personally played it but I remember being obsessed with it years ago… I was so excited for the doppels. goodnight sweet game

thank you for the 90 minute confirmation that vampire kanagi is still my favourite an that i was right to pick up jp just for her i don't have anything deeper to add here unfortunately

Really shows the Holy Quintet favoritism. They sure received more detailed transformations. The poor side cast, mostly arc 1, got such the short end. I think the Magia Report April fools ones are my favorite set.

Ah.. now bring back memories huh, hmm Magia Record is the only thing that holding me during Covid-19 and my father died at that time (September2020) I became way more lazy and addicted to phone, all of them shattered into pieces. Magia Record, Wake Up, Girls!, Spy x Family is the only thing that keeping me sane back then. Oh, around 2020-2022 i make gacha content inspired by making content. There's not much to say bcs i'm tired So thank you Magia Record, it was a regret i uninstal it and can't play it until NA shut down. It was a bittersweet journey...

Its actually really cool to see how much care they put in this mobile game

why do they have to god damn shut down now :C

I feel like the order of some of these could be tweaked a little. The alts for certain individual characters feel out of order, but I'm not sure how to fix it, because any change I could suggest would just cause additional problems.

I hope madoka magica exedra will be the sequel of this. (I heard exedra will release after end of magireco)

It sucks that the game is shutting down. Its for reasons like this that i think keeping ROMS on the internet archive is necessary despite it technically being piracy. Having all this hard work unable to be experienced in the future feels like we're burning books or something. I loved the magireco girls and the timeline where Walpurgisnacht was beaten by a team effort. This is also technically the only property that had Nagisa's storyline. I hope one day all these assets can be reused in a new memorial project after Walpurgisnacht Rising

I'm really going to miss Magia Record, it's been a part of my life for so long. I'm hoping we manage to get Mabayu and a lot of the Magia Record units in the new game, but it's going to be bittersweet for those that definitely won't make the cut :(. Especially the crossover and manga girls, I'm really going to miss Chisato and Takina, they felt like a really well executed pair and really quickly became a core part of my team, knowing we won't ever see them again (outside of their own anime of course) is really disheartening. Hopefully this time we'll wait significantly less long for Matsuri lol
