2. Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash This show was just super boring. The only thing it had going for it was the very pretty backgrounds but even those didn't hold up to much scrutiny since they were just lifeless stills. Terrible characters and an uninspired world with a premise done better by a dozen other shows this year. Only watched 3 episodes and gave up.

You were very close. It picks up in the fourth episode (assuming you like character-driven relationship drama).

all of these and more roped into a magical girl contract that turns out to be inescapable and fatal by design

Minor nitpick: It's not fatal by design. It's only fatal because the current master wants it to be.

To be fair that's the same case in madoka, as evidenced by madokas wish

No? Madoka's wish literally re-writes reality (which is not something anyone, including the creatures that created magical girls, thought was possible) so that being a magical girl was no longer fatal. Scratch that. In Madoka, even after her wish, it's still fatal; it just no longer turns someone into a witch (unless Madoka is prevented from reaching the magical girl in time).

In Ikusei Keikaku it's fatal just because "erasing their memories became boring".
