Magia Record Season 2 Release Date: When will it premiere?

The first original ‘Puella Magi Madoka Magica’ anime series was released almost a decade ago. ‘Magia Record: Mahou Shoujo Madoka☆Magica Gaiden’, which serves as a side story to the original series, premiered on January 5, 2020 and with a total of 12 episodes, it finished airing on March 29, 2020.
