Additional lore incoming: can't believe I didn't think of this earlier!


[hider=Heart Crystals]
What would a magical girl anime be without new powerups? In this case, they're known as Heart Crystals. Dropped by defeated Monsters and Villains, Heart Crystals cans provide magical girls with new attacks and powers, more mana, or further physical buffs. Sufficiently large ones might even be able to trigger short-term 'super modes', but they won't come easy...
