      here’s the link, can’t direct link the image again

      Alt titles: 魔法少女はおとなのつとめです。, Mahō shōjo wa otona no tsutomedesu.
      Author: Tabe Cannon
      Artist: Mamyoda
      Publisher: Overlap
      Volumes: 1 (releases Dec 2025)

      Synopsis: The debut of a magical girl who saves magical girls! For the girls who continue their lonely battles, "his" presence is too stimulating...!?

      In a world where magical girls gather power through streaming and fight monsters called phantom beasts to protect people. Takashi Shiraha, a working adult, protects a potential magical girl and confronts the beast. Despite being an adult, he somehow transforms into a magical girl and repels the beast. Concerned about the current situation in which child magical girls are forced to fight dangerous battles, he decides to become a "magical girl for magical girls" as an "adult" and begins his activities.
      However, he didn't know how powerful the presence of an adult who fights alongside and supports the lonely girls who find themselves in a life-risking battle can be...
      This magical girl action drama begins, in which a reliable adult male magical girl saves girls and burns their brains!

      Comments: Look, if Gonna Be The Twintail is in licensing limbo after Shogakukan threw it to Novelous, we might as well deal with the next best thing. It’s got office salarymen turning into magical girls, what more could you ask for?

        Color me intrigued
        I do find “magical girl but the magical girl is secretly not an ordinary girl but really X” stories fun

        “There’s always a story. It’s all stories, really. The sun coming up every day is a story. Everything’s got a story in it. Change the story, change the world.” ― Terry Pratchett, A Hat Full of Sky
