"Why does Mahou Shoujo stick with us? The show I loved when I was six is
something I love when I’m twenty, and something my cousin who is a tween also
loves. For that matter, Puella Magi is, essentially, an update of the classic
Magical Girl story, with some genre subversions thrown in. What makes magical
girls so important?"
