Neuware - A millennial turned magical girl must combat climate change and credit card debt in this delightful, witty, and wildly imaginative urban fantasy ode to magical girl manga.Twenty-nine, depressed, and drowning in credit card debt after losing her job during the pandemic, a millennial woman decides to end her troubles by jumping off Seoul's Mapo Bridge.But her suicide attempt is interrupted by a girl dressed all in white-her guardian angel. Ah Roa is a clairvoyant magical girl on a mission to find the greatest magical girl of all time.
