Where To Start The Magical Girl and the Evil Lieutenant Used to Be Archenemies Manga After The Anime?
The Magical Girl and the Evil Lieutenant Used to Be Archenemies is a 4-koma series that was canceled at Chapter 20 after the author unexpectedly passed away. The anime adapts some of the chapters faithfully, but usually adapts “the essence of the story” padding it out for the screen with a lot of anime-original content as well as cropping out some of the larger “evil organization” moments that don’t serve the story as it is.
There isn’t really any clean place to pick up the manga after the anime, and even if there was, there not much to continue with. If you enjoyed The Magical Girl and the Evil Lieutenant Used to Be Archenemies, read it from the beginning and consider the anime a lovely “gone but not forgotten” tribute to the author. They didn’t give the story an ending nor did they adapt all of it, but they brought it to life with every ounce of artful, tender animation even knowing there was not much source material to promote.
