3rd Madoka Magica Movie Set to Open This Summer

According to the April issue of Takarajima’s Smart magazine, the third Puella Magi Madoka Magica movie, Gekijō-ban Mahō Shōjo Madoka Magica Shinpen: Hangyaku no Monogatari (Puella Magi Madoka Magica the Movie Part III: The Rebellion Story) will be premiering in Japan this summer.

Unlike the first and second movies, which are a condensed re-telling of the original TV anime series, the third one will be based on a completely new script and it will be a direct sequel to the series.
