 This job has become more difficult as of late, particularly in Tokyo, which seems to be a focal point for otherworldly activity. Often, the Association finds magical girls to be more nuisance than anything else; while more progressive mages will do what they can to help, the Association will usually only assist and recognize magical girls who draw their power from an artifact in which the Association is interested.
-In Japan, the Magic Association has two major branches, the Kantou Association and the Kansai Association. The Kansai Magic Association is led by Eishun Konoe, and is based in Kyouto, out of the Konoe family's sprawling compound. It favors Eastern-style magic, employing a mixture of sword techniques and Onmyo mysticism. The Kanto Magic Association is led by Eishun's father, Konoemon Konoe, and is based out of Infinity Institute. Infinity's magic classes cover every field, but its highest-ranked wizards prefer Western-style spirit invocation and elementalist magic, much to the chagrin of the chief instructor, the 107th Devil Hunter Madoka Mano, who is Eastern to the core. It is perhaps indicative of how deep wizard rivalries can run, that the dispute over favored magic schools has led to a deep rift between the two Associations, despite the familial bonds of their leaders.

 This was only exacerbated by the fiasco of the Bellum Scismatica. The Great Wizard War that rocked both Mundus Magicus and Earth, a battle that nearly spilled into full view of the public and reshaped landscapes; although the treachery at the heart of that war was in time rooted out, the dozens of unbelievably powerful mages who emerged from it, and the troubling revelations that only the privileged few have heard, have rendered the Association's leadership more distant than ever, contemplating terrible deeds.
-In the Schism War, the Gateport between Mundus Magicus and Infinity Institute was broken. Because of this, even in this age of isolation at the top, the Magic Association in Tokyo is somewhat traditional, directed most chiefly by Konoemon Konoe, Madoka Mano and their personal foibles to safeguard the innocent - and fight that which would bring them harm.

 ==History==
-In the years following the end of the Silver Age, the wizards of the world scrabbled for direction in a world that could no longer accept them. Most chose to retreat; many of the Earth Court's scions retreated to the faraway realm called Elysium, vanishing from Earth forever. Others chose a less final option: Following the new archwizard the Lifemaker into his hand-crafted dimension, the Magical World, Mundus Magicus. Although there were natives, mostly the Beastmen of Hellas, the mages were able to carve out their own nation and begin securing territory. That other world's stories are long and many...and matter only little, to the wizards of Earth.

-When Puella Magi began appearing on the scene, the wizards who remained on Earth were dazzled. It became clear quickly, as the Puella Magi outpaced them at every turn, that the Earth mage community needed guidance. On Earth, their ability to advance their art was limited; both training and artifice was more difficult, for the scattered wizards of Earth. The Magic World presented them with the extra magical potential that would be necessary to keep pace with the powers of magical girls - and with the shocking strength of the powers of darkness. Therefore they made a pact: The Magic Association headquarters in Mundus Magicus would have governance over Earth's wizards, keeping secured artifacts safe and advancing the cause of magic development. They would provide support when things get dire, and license and support the great Earthly magic academies. In exchange, the mages of Earth would continue on their work, going about their most important work of all: Guiding the people of Earth to happiness.

-Slowly, mages drew together into local communities, mastering their arts and engaging in local rivalries. The young went out into the world to help the common man; adults, and adolescents with the guts to force the issue or the Contracts to strengthen them, went out to fight the darkness as demon-hunters and researchers, preparing the way for the future. That compact has endured into the modern day, but it has been a bumpy road. When Clow Reed's world-breaking wish tore open the doors of the worlds, darkness unlike what had been poured in from every portal. This new darkness was more powerful than what had plagued the world until now - and more numerous. The [[Tuner Organization]]] formed to fight this upsurge, and the Magic Association had to match it with new training, new spells, new weapons... and old ones, unearthed from their vaults when they'd hoped to keep them locked up forever. They could manage it, but only just...and when Lord Dune appeared, everything changed again. He represented a new, terrifying reality of power; darkness that dwarfed any other, a shadow that could only be dispelled by the light of miracles that the Magic Association simply did not have.

 The Magic Association's masters in Mundus Magicus began to doubt that the Earth could be saved, anymore. The modern leadership has largely removed themselves from Earth's troubles; sending aid when asked, but leaving Earth's mages largely to their own devices. They have much bigger concerns than the trials of a world swarmed by an impossible doom.
