I’m looking for magical girl manga where the girls discover and learn magic by themselves instead of it being granted through some contract

Also I don’t like ones where they have to give up the magic when they grow up because that trope is stupid and I hate it

    Chobits mentioned… cute story, but all the explanations are technology based, no magic needed (except “the magic of love”, hm). It’s more of an exploration of our upcoming IRL approach to humanoid robots with an AI, and what will it take to train them for human relationships: a humanoid training platform learning from human interactions.

      I may be misremembering, but as she “awakens” she starts being able to basically fly and stuff.

        You remember correctly, it’s still explained as a technological feature. Kind of a case of “sufficiently advanced technology, looks like magic”, though.
