Yuuki Yuuna Is a Hero
Created by Takahiro
On MBS
A magical girl series that subverts the genre by grounding its cosmic horror and existential stakes in the intimate bonds between schoolgirl friends, balancing slice-of-life warmth against mounting darkness and sacrifice.
Yuuki Yuuna is an ordinary second-year middle school student. She gets up in the morning, gets ready for school, goes to classes, participates in club activities, and has fun with her friends. But there is one extraordinary thing about Yuuna -- she belongs to the “Brave Hero Club.” What does the Brave Hero Club do? Who is the mysterious being called “Vertex?” Yuuki Yuuna and her friends’ story takes place in Year 300, Divine Era
