About Life After Magic

Being an adult sucks! Life was so much easier when Akiko was saving the world with her magical girl squad, the Sentinels of Justice. Now she’s stuck working a boring retail job, watching the days creep closer to Y2K. She’s lost touch with her high school friends, her powers, and herself. Worst of all...
MAGIC IS DISAPPEARING
When Akiko realizes her healing magic is fading, she knows it's a sign of trouble. But things only get worse from there — her old teammates are affected too and soon the greater populace of the city! As Akiko, with help from the Sentinels, track down what's happening to magic (and who might be behind it) before it's too late.
Meet the Sentinels
Reconnect with your former teammates! All the Sentinels have moved on from magical girl life in their own way. Spend your free time getting closer to them (and even finding love!) with optional routes between your work day and your magical girl sleuthing.
But the Sentinels aren't the only ones you'll meet! Hang out with your Glamour Pop work wife and avoid running into your ex, Solaire Blaze (don't even get us started!).

Go to Work!?
Even former magical girls have to pay rent! Go to your shift at Glamour Pop: the high-end, low-paying retail job that you got after high school. Deal with the demands of the customers and if successful, you might just have more energy to hang with your friends! Plus, you wouldn't want to get on the bad side of Glamour Pop's CEO Anna Lee…

Somehow made it to top 40 games I have ever played. I'm not sure how that happened. This was good. Really good. Stay silly.1 found this helpful
I loved this game so much! The humor was great and I liked the music and character design and almost everything. I felt so sentimental, too! SEQUEL WHEN

super cute game.
An interesting take on the life after being a magical girl plot. The retro aesthetics really embrace the vibe of the 2000s and the developers clearly cared a lot about paying homage to the genre. I wish the overall gameplay between the shop vs the battles was more fleshed out, and overall that the game was longer so that I could stay in the world and see a bit more of the characters. It's been a long time since they released this title, but I hope they still intend on continuing to make new releases!
Awesome little game. I love the artstyle, and the game is a very clear love letter to a lot of the classic magical girl shows, but having the characters be adult and post-magical girl life is a fun and unique premise. I only did one playthrough (plus the new game+ route that unlocks after game clear) since I enjoy these types of games more for the main plot experience than for trying to do every character's route, but from what I can tell there are a lot of hangouts for each character so anyone who is going through multiple times will have plenty of new stuff to see. Might come back to it again to see some of those scenes and go down a different route once the main plot is less fresh in my mind, but as-is it still felt like a complete experience just going through once. I did not get the feeling that there's a "true end" for doing all the routes or any secret plot knowledge, I think any stuff that would be in that is in the new game+ route that unlocks once you've beaten the game once. Wasn't initially a huge fan of the new game+ being presented as a romance route with a character who's probably like 20 years older than our protagonist, and I almost just skipped it because of that…
