After Kia Asamiya created Steam Detectives for his son, he looked yet again into an unfamiliar genre, this time for his daughter, who was a fan of Magical Girls. He came up with a story that brought the typical wand-waving, miniskirt-wearing junior high girl Twenty Minutes Into the Future by making her a regular girl in the real world and a magical girl online.

Fourteen-year-old Yui Kasuga is perky, creative, daydreamy... and at a complete disadvantage for someone that lives twenty years in the future: she's so computer-illiterate that she thinks 'delete' is a snack food. Luckily for her, her best friend Haruna Kisaragi is a famous computer expert, taught by her father and her uncle. However, Haruna ain't stupid and Yui has to do her own homework, even though the rest of her friends are off to a virtual theme park. Yui puts the homework disk into her computer and manages to screw up so badly that a virtual creature hidden inside it is awakened by just the right key combination. Thinking he's stumbled upon a super-genius, the creature, IR, commands Yui to load her consciousness onto the 'Com-Net' (internet) and become a virtual magical girl.

Yui immediately jumps at the chance to fight viruses and wear cute outfits (not to mention, one of the first people threatened by the Big Bad is her father), but as she finds out, there's more to the story than this. Eight sentient programs, of which IR is one, have been created by one Professor Inukai, who is comatose after another program named Grosser rebelled against him and overrode his car. Grosser is after these programs, which uphold the very existence of Com-Net (and, since Everything Is Online, the real world too); presumably, he wants to corrupt everything for some unknown goal. Yui is commissioned to gather all eight and combine their powers with her own to delete Grosser.

Yui might turn to cliche once in a while, but in other respects, it's very different. The title character actually wants to be a magical girl, and has dreamed about it and written like stories for a long time. She has a few basic powers with her Fairy Elemental Suit, but each Corrector Program can grant her a different Elemental Suit with different powers, varying the battle tactics. And though the plot might seem straightforward, never fear: Grosser and his Corruptor Programs aren't simple Card Carrying Villains, Inukai's not such a saint himself, the Correctors have their own personalities and quirks, and both Yui and Haruna might not be what they think they are either.

The original manga was commissioned to a mangaka named Keiko Okamoto which adapted the two seasons in a 9-volume manga series of two parts (5 for the first, 4 for the second). Asamiya later wrote his own version.

Corrector Yui Transformation Model

• Action Girl: Freeze in the second season, mixed with Dojikko traits.
• Adult Child: Manami, and to some degree, Yui's father.
• Affectionate Nickname: Yui calls War Wolf 'Doggie' or 'Wan-chan', she obviously doesn't do that (later, at least) to tease him... and it is carried on when Synchro returns to his Fearsome Four self during the second season. He doesn't like the nickname but after a while, he gets used to it.

• Big Badass Wolf: War Wolf.
• Bodyguard Crush: It's hinted a bit that Synchro might be in love with Yui.
• Body Horror: Second anime season: The Boggler Virus not only forcibly turns Synchro into War Wolf, but at some point it briefly forces a struggling, panicking Corrector Haruna to beat up Yui with her rod, until Corrector Ai comes in a Big Damn Heroes entry.
• Brainwashed and Crazy:
  • Synchro as War Wolf during the first season until The Reveal.
  • Corrector Haruna, in the first season.
  • In the end of the first season, it's hinted that Grosser recruited his Quirky Miniboss Squad similarly.

  • Paint It Black: The Angel and Devil Suits might be separate, but their user's alignment summons one or the other, rather than the switch being intentional.
• Fan Service: In the anime, Yui's very detailed Transformation Sequences have quite the Male Gaze directed towards either her breasts, feet, hips and butt. This is amped up toeleven in the second season.

• Heroic BSOD: Yui has three short ones in the first season.

First, when she discovers that she wasn't The Chosen One.

  • Played straight at first; Haruna was supposed to become the first Corrector, but that went to Yui instead.
