Same. I'd love side-stories on Anne Frank and Himiko, also, who were alluded to as being puella magi as well.



The Oriko one I'm not interested in, though. I read the original duology, and while the first one had potential, the second one fell flat for me.

^This

Plus the art looks quite nice as well. It's kind of interesting how each manga is done by a different artist, it gives it a little more unique flavor to each story

That Joan looks like Saber Lily.



So... I'm posting Saber, might as well post nasuverse's Joan.

I didn't know so many Madoka spinoffs existed! I'm not very interested in the spinoffs, but I'll check out the Joan of Arc one because I'd be interested in reading anything about her <3

There's a Manga Time Kirara Magica. With a dedicated magazine that's still publishing, you bet your biscuit there's a boatload of spinoffs. Sadly, this also means there's a leviathan amount of material that'll never see an English release.

It seems like most of the stuff in Kirara Magica are gag series, which probably won't come out over here. Of the stuff published in tankoubon, though, it looks like we're getting a good portion, and likely to get more. From reading the wikia, we've got the original 3 manga and The Different Story, and we're getting the Jeanne d'Arc and Oriko sidestories.

That leaves us with the Rebellion adaptation, Suzune Magica (which appears to be ongoing), and the stuff that hasn't been collected into tankoubon yet (if at all).
