MAGICA Vol 2

One spell turns life into gems. Every gem holds a story. A mage with just one spell journeys through the universe, turning the twinkle of life into gems and gathering its joys and sorrows into tales. Yuzuko Hoshimi’s full-color fantasy collection invites readers to discover the extraordinary stories within each passing life, from moments of quiet wonder to heartbreaking loss. The English edition of MAGICA Vol. 1 won Best Translation and was nominated for Best Publication Design at the 2026 American Manga Awards. Long, long ago, there once lived a beautiful mage. However, this mage could neither conjure miracles nor save anyone. Instead, the one and only ability they had was transforming the time a life had lived into a beautiful gem. The stories contained within are treasures of the universe that were at some point witnessed and left behind by the powerless mage. Stories that are each a treasure of their own. And so, the curtain rises once more on this heart-stirring fairy-tale fantasy!
