'Märchen Mädchen' Episode 9 Not Airing This Week; Magic Committee to Come Up With Another Plan to Sabotage Hazuki?
In the most unexpected way, and despite the Committee's unfair meddling, the Japanese school managed to win their match against the Russian school at the ongoing Hexennacht tournament on the Japanese magical girl anime series, "Märchen Mädchen (Fairy Tale Girls)."
But while that does sound like a favorable outcome for the girls, fans may not be too pleased to know that the next episode of the series based on the manga by Tomohiro Matsu and StoryWorks will not be airing this week or the next.
According to an announcement on the series' official site, as translated by MyAnimeList, the broadcast for episode 9, which is titled "Companions on a Journey and Whimsical Traps," has been delayed in order to give the production team enough time to improve on the series' animation quality.
