Maburaho is your typical magical-girl anime with the typical loser hero, but the story has a bit of charm to it.

Kazuki Shikimori, a second year magic school attendee is a bit below average, only being able to use magic eight times before he turns to ash and disappears. This alone should not have qualified him to attend the prestigious Aoi Academy, but his lineage, and sheer magical power, more than make up for his shortcomings. Unknown to Shikimori, he has the lineage of some of the most powerful witches and wizards in history, which makes his "genes" very desirable.

Yuna Miyama appears one day, claming to be Kazuki's wife, and that's when the crazy starts. The same day, Kuriko Kazetsubaki and Rin Kamishiro appear and begin their quest to either get Kazuki's genes, much to Yuna's dismay, or kill him trying. Yuna claimes to purely love Kazuki while Kuriko and Rin are just following their head family's orders. Throughout the series, All three girls fall in love with Kazuki and are torn when he dies mid-series and becomes a ghost. The antics pick up where they left off when the girls decide to try and find a way to get his body back. The secret could potentially have them leave him a ghost.

The series is one of realization, a degree of growing up and coming of age. It is a charming series with a plethera of fan service to varying degrees. Overall, I give it a stamp of approval. The storyline is a common one, but the delivery and artistic style drew me in and has kept me spellbound to the series. I would recomend it to anyone over sixteen because of the fan service and some of the situations that help move the story foreward.

Great series and interesting story. I love it. A guy with ultimate power but he can only use it 8 times and 3 beauties after him xD. The character designs are good as well as the artwork in the series. I feel there should be more xD.

I was gonna rate this 1 star but it is a great series. But i have no idea why this is being re-released at the exact same price as the 1st release? The whole point of a 2nd re-release is to make the price cheaper then the original. So what was the point again? Anyways overall it is a great series.
