The official MM twitter has confirmed it for real. Also, the new manga chapter should be releasing very soon.

Hola, Shamigos! I hope you're all enjoying Shamiko's birthday today.



A new chapter has been published. It's a weird, short, spinoff chapter, so it should be translated pretty soon. Ito also made this other thing, a thinly veiled look into her own professional life right now. I found a roughly typeset translation of it, so here you go.





In other news, Kirara has launched some kind of facebook page with english manga translations. They aren't using licensed translations, the typesetting is awful, and it's only on facebook. Who knows what they were thinking. You can read the first volume of Machikado Mazoku there if you want.

Finally, Ito has provided input on some new swimsuit figurines.



You can see pictures of the figurines in the tweet, but I woudn't consider them to be safe for work.

What a great chapter, such a shame the TL drags it down. I hope someone makes a better version. This sort of thing is why I'm learning japanese!!

I was very excited for the evil supercop magical girl and Suika does not disappoint. Momo unwittingly handing her a list of victims is a big "oof" moment.

Also, given Shamimomo's fortuitous meeting has been talked about as "something like fate" before, am I to understand now it's a result of Suika's wish? Like Momo wanted to find her sister, and so she found her current host. It's a fun connection.

I recently learned that Ito-sensei had a chapter in the fifth Madoka Magica Anthology Manga, and tried my hand at translating it for anyone interested:

Note that this volume was published on June 12th 2014, just 16 days before the first chapter of Machikado Mazoku.

Gotta admit that Final 4 koma panel that is all black and just as Suika admitting she killed all the demons is one of the best simple 4 koma panels I've seen. Just gives the reveal and extra oomph to hit real hard

Ito deserves some kind of trophy for foreshadowing. With every new plot point that gets revealed, you can go back and find hints leading up to it since the beginning.

Turns out, that muck Shamiko cleaned away was the lingering melon-witch essence all along. Big villain defeated before her intro.

Because Shamiko always does her best.

The muck was explained by Lilith when Shamiko was trying to dig up her old memories.



But people have gone back to the show and noticed that whenever Momo's peachy icons are fluttering around, one of them has an eye, and one has a little face. I guess one is Metako and maybe the other is Suika.

I was interested! Thanks for posting this.

Also I heard that the mangaka did some vtubing earlier in the year, but none of it is translated. Given the pressures of a series plus another anime season I can't imagine there's much time for her to pursue it.

Not Sunrise Arrow but we have latest chapter up (Reads better than their last chapter) https://mangadex.org/chapter/1151153/1

Just when you thought you knew all about Momo's past they throw another twist in

Shamiko's power is so Shamiko!

Ganbare Shamiko!

You are your Father demon's daughter demon!

Also I deeply adore how consistent this series has been in giving hints and glimpses about there having been some extremely serious season ending Magical Girl stuff that either happened or is maybe still on some level happening elsewhere in the setting. Momo being an orphan from a Magical Girl war on top of all her other scars is just another glimpse of the world, and a reminder of how special and important Shamiko's hometown actually is. Metako's line also plays into the feeling that there is enough of the setting for there to be an out there, somewhere out there.

A magical girl anime enthusiast I know said they were pleased that the series didn't take cheap shots at the genre after watching the anime, and I agree. Machikado Mazoku has both a great deal of knowledge and a deep love of the genre with the way it runs its setting and story. I genuinely would not have believed when the anime started that I'd be this invested in the story and characters of a 4Koma Genre Parody Comedy Yuri manga, but here I am!


Edit: Someone did a Google Translate on Mangadex. It goes something like:

[Page 3]
Metako : The organization, which controls you, has fallen. You no longer have to commit suicide.
Momo : I'm not dead.
Momo : For rent. (?)
Momo : What is it?

[Page 4]
Metako : Yak call you? (?)
Momo : I'm called Operation 27.
Momo : Mon-mo?

Anyone who actually can speak Russian are encouraged to chime in

She's speaking Ukrainian, actually. Translation not mine, but here:

quote:

>Metako: "The organisation which was controlling you has fallen. You don't have to do anything more" (the більше вчиняти part is the one where I'm really not sure how to translate it in context, it should mean "do more" in a vacuum, but the whole sentence would be something like "you're not obliged to do anything from here on out" I guess?)
>Slav-mo: "I'm the only one left alive. I surrender." (lit. "Only I didn't die yet")
>Slav-mo: "What's this?"

>Metako: "What's your name?"
>Slav-mo: "My name is Operation 27" (Operation can just as likely mean "military operation" as it can mean "surgery" in this context)
>Slav-mo: "Mon-mo?" (МОН could stand for Міністерство освіти і науки or Ministry of Education and Science, but that's a far fetched idea. I know that in some Slavic countries MON could stand for Ministry of National Defence, but Ukraine doesn't use that)

Does Operation 27 mean anything? Well, there's 27 books in the New Testament, and the last book(ie 27th book) is the Book of Revelations. Is that important? I have no idea.
