The news of the TV anime adaptation was released with the ninth volume of the manga, which hit stands on Thursday morning in Japan. The manga is currently published in English by J-Novel Club since October of 2022 and is described thusly:
“Hi, I’m Hiiragi Utena. I’m a normal magical-girl-loving middle school girl—or at least I was, but then some talking mascot showed up out of the blue and cast a spell on me! Now’s my chance to join my beloved magical girls as…a villain? Hang on, something’s wrong with my outfit! This can’t be happening! Watch this shy magical-girl fan transform into a sadistic dominatrix! When good and evil collide, who will be the one to submit?!”
