Madoka Magica Smartwatches Feature Heart-Rate Transformations
Fans of the magical girl anime franchise can soon track their daily activities while triggering onscreen character transformations with a new line of wearables. Japanese lifestyle and trading company Ueni Trading announced a collection of six Garrack smartwatches inspired by characters from Puella Magi Madoka Magica, notebookcheck-cn.com reported. Each timepiece costs ¥10,890 including tax, and the company scheduled an official release date of October 30.
The watches integrate a specialized function on their watch faces that alters the displayed character when the wearer’s heart rate reaches a specific threshold. Garrack has not yet disclosed the exact heart rate metrics required to trigger these magical girl transformations. The official product page demonstrates how the display shifts as the pulse increases, with specific heart rate monitor readouts shown at 96 and 115 bpm.
Character Designs and Health Tracking Features
The collection covers six distinct characters from the series: Madoka Kaname, Homura Akemi, Sayaka Miki, Kyoko Sakura, Mami Tomoe, and Nagisa Momoe. Alongside the dynamic face changes tied to pulse data, the interface incorporates animated backgrounds and notification effects styled after the characters’ soul gems, while the Homura Akemi variant displays a dark orb.

Beyond the anime-themed display features, the wearables support standard fitness tracking capabilities. The devices include heart rate monitoring, blood oxygen tracking, sleep analysis, stress tracking, and 100 sports modes. Compatibility extends to both iOS and Android devices through Huawei Health. Without the strap, each watch weighs approximately 16 grams. Every retail box includes an interchangeable black strap alongside character-themed packaging, following Garrack’s previous release of Super Kaguya-hime! smartwatches.
Soul Gem Inspired Ring Watches and Pre-order Windows
Complementing the smartwatches, Garrack designed a separate series of five ring watches priced at ¥16,500 each. These traditional quartz timepieces draw aesthetic inspiration directly from the characters’ soul gems and utilize handmade iridescent shell inlay dials. The manufacturing process relies on a traditional Japanese decorative technique known as Raden, which involves hand-applying thin slices of seashell to create a shimmering surface. Each ring watch features a stainless steel case, a Japanese quartz movement, and 5 ATM water resistance.
Both the smartwatch line and the ring watch collection opened for pre-orders on October 9. While the smartwatches launch on October 30, the ring watches arrive later on December 11. These product releases follow previous merchandise tie-ins for the franchise, including a limited-edition chronograph watch series produced by Seiko.
