Magical Girl Raising Project Returns After Decade-Long Wait, Director Says
Director Hiroyuki Hashimoto confirmed that Magical Girl Raising Project Restart, a sequel to the 2016 anime, is in production. In an interview, Hashimoto said the series' dark premise, where magical girls are culled, required viewers to have mental preparation before a sequel could work. The long gap came down to the business side of anime, with the project finally greenlit after a change in the primary animation production company and EPX Corp expressing interest.
