'''Puella Magi Oriko Magica''' (魔法少女おりこ☆マギカ, ''Mahou Shoujo Oriko Magica'') is the second spin-off [[manga]] illustrated by Mura Kuroe with draft by Magica Quartet. The first volume was published by ''[[wikipedia:Houbunsha|Houbunsha]]'' and features the return of [[Kyouko]] and [[Mami]] from the anime as well as new cast members.
 
Although the first volume was initially intended to be released on April 12, 2011, the [[Wikipedia: 2011_Tōhoku_earthquake_and_tsunami| 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami]], as well as the subsequent postponement of the last two episodes of the anime has caused ''Oriko Magica'' to be postponed to May 12, 2011. The second volume was released on June 13, 2011.
 
==Plot==
The story is believed to take place in one of the alternate timelines, during the same time period (calendar-wise) as the original anime. The plot revolves around [[Oriko Mikuni]], a mysterious magical girl with a unique ability to see the future.
 
=== Chapter 1: Don't even think about becoming a Magical Girl ===
A girl dressed all in white tests out her magic after contracting with [[Kyubey]]. This girl, Oriko, seems to have a vision of a future where [[Mitakihara Town]] has been destroyed, possibly by one or more witches. Oriko is determined not to let the town be destroyed, but may not be able to stop it herself. She has a second vision soon after, where she sees the potential of a girl with strong magic, implying this girl could do something about the vision.
 
Some undetermined time later, a very young girl called [[Yuma Chitose]] is rescued by [[Kyouko]] from being killed by a witch, but not before her parents are killed in the same way. Upon seeing Kyouko fight, Yuma grows a desire to become a magical girl herself, despite many warnings from Kyouko. Kyubey, informed about Yuma by Oriko, approaches her in order to make a contract, but is stopped by Kyouko. Meanwhile, Kyouko teaches the girl how to live on her own, and Yuma reveals her troubled past - her parents were very abusive, which led her to have very low self-esteem and find herself useless.
 
=== Chapter 2: I'm not crying at all ===
While Kyouko is out fighting witches, Oriko approaches Yuma and manipulates her into believing that Kyouko is in big danger and she should become a magical girl, too. Kyouko is indeed having a hard fight and is nearly killed. Kyouko is rescued, without initially realizing the way how she survived, but Yuma quickly appears in front of her - as a magical girl. It turns out that Oriko also told Yuma that Kyouko is about to die. That's why she contracted - to prove her usefulness and save Kyouko. At the end of the chapter, Kyouko is seen determined to get revenge on Oriko, while another girl is talking with Oriko on the phone while covered in blood, accepting some request.
 
=== Chapter 3: Love is infinitely finite ===
Backstory of Oriko is revealed - her father, [[Hisaomi Mikuni]], was a politician, and she was helping him with his campaign back when she was a child. [[Mami]] is seen fighting [[Charlotte]], and feeling a presence of another magical girl nearby, who turns out to be dead. Kyubey reveals to her a rumor that there is a magical girl who hunts other magical girls. The girl seen at the end of the previous chapter is revealed to be [[Kirika Kure]], and she's having a tea party with Oriko in the garden. A witch attacks, and Kirika fights her while Oriko continues to make tea. Kirika faints, and Oriko says that she has to use her again, "to protect [their] world".
 
Mami investigates the case of the killer magical girl, asking Kyubey, Kyouko and [[Homura]] what they know about it.  Kyoko asks Mami back about Oriko, but she doesn't know anything. Homura has no knowledge herself, but tells Mami to stay away from herself, [[Madoka]], [[Sayaka]], and [[Hitomi]]. Homura then accompanies them home (note that Sayaka and Hitomi never actually appear). Mami meets Kirika, who has lost a stuffed toy - Mami helps her recover it, and Kirika calls her "savior". Kirika treats Mami for a strawberry crepe to thank her, but Mami mentioning Kirika probably loving the person who gave her that toy makes Kirika mad - she is extremely picky about using the words "affection" and "love". She comments that "love is infinitely finite". A witch appears, and Mami begins to fight it carefully, not wanting to harm Kirika. However, Kirika transforms into a magical girl and attacks Mami, revealing herself as the "Black Magical Girl", the culprit behind the previous murders. Kirika is seen winning the battle, while in the meantime Oriko is seen talking about her and Kirika making her father's dream come true.
 
=== Chapter 4: I'll never forgive you ===
The chapter begins with a flashback to Kirika's past. It reveals that she was a quiet loner who looked down on people with friends and was apathetic to the world.
 
Mami and Kirika's fight continues. Kirika wounds Mami on her leg, making it difficult for her to move. Mami still manages an escape, however, and wanders further into the witch's barrier. While pausing to catch her breath, she realizes that the barrier should have broken down by then, and that Kirika must have cast a spell when she was hidden inside the witch she let attack her. This spell slows down enemies, giving Kirika the illusion of great agility and speed. Mami takes advantage of this, setting up a trap for Kirika.
 
In the meantime, Kirika is searching through the barrier for Mami, knowing that it is starting to fall apart and that she needs to end the fight quickly. Mami can't live, or the information could get back to Oriko and ruin their plan. Kirka has a flashback to when she first met Oriko. While Kirika was trying to pick up her things that had fallen in the street, Oriko is the only one to stop and help her gather them. Kirika is charmed by Oriko, who is seen in the present baking sweets, thinking that Kirika will return hungry.
 
Back in the barrier, Kirika finally finds Mami. Mami taunts her by declaring that she can take Kirika out in one shot versus the girl's ten towards Mami herself. Kirika laughs and agrees, growing her claws to have 5 blades on each hand instead of the previous 3. Mami summons her large gun to perform her signature attack, Tiro Finale. Kirika slows down time again in order to dodge the blast, but this causes it to go off behind her and wound her back.
 
Oriko, who is some distance away, sees some kind of vision and falls to the ground, crying and calling out, "Kirika."
 
IKirika falls to the ground as well, and Mami takes the opportunity to blast a hole in the black magical girl's leg to keep her from moving. Mami asks for an explanation for the murders, mentioning that Kirika needs to heal soon or she'll die of blood loss, but Kirika refuses to answer. Mami then holds up a gun to Kirika's head and prepares to shoot, but is interrupted by Oriko, who causes a huge explosion. In the confusion, Oriko takes Kirika back and comments that Mami and the pair will probably meet again and that Mami will hopefully have realized her "foolishness" by that time. As Oriko vanishes and the barrier finally crumbles, Mami falls to her knees, relieved to finally be away from the terrifying strength Oriko displayed.
 
At Oriko's house, the white magical girl is panicking over Kirika's wounds. The bleeding won't stop, so she decides to call a doctor. Kirika tells her not to bother with that, but to listen to her confession, which is revealed in another flashback. Kirika skipped school often to try and track Oriko down, but when she finally does, she's too nervous to call out to her. She thinks that no one would pay attention to her. Her apathetic personality was fake and that she really did care about things like friends. She was jealous, and thinks, "I want to change myself." This is the wish Kyubey grants for her. The Kirika Oriko knows is a result of that wish, someone who isn't afraid of being disliked and can make friends and face people without fear.
 
Kirika apologizes for the deception, but Oriko responds that what she's done is "unforgivable." She demands that Kirika make it up to her, which the bed-ridden girl agrees to while we see a shot of Kirika's cracked Soul Gem. Oriko smiles, crying at the same time.
 
The final page of this chapter shows Homura, Sayaka, Hitomi and Madoka going out for snacks after school.
