Boon of Mystic Fate 2WR
Enchantment - Aura R
Enchant Child creature
When ~ enters the battlefield, exile an instant or sorcery card from your hand.
Whenever enchanted creature attacks or blocks, it gets +3/+3 and gains indestructible until end of turn.
If enchanted creature would deal combat damage equal to or greater than the mana value of the exiled card, you may instead create a copy of that card and cast the copy without paying its mana cost.

It's a magical girl's (or boy's) Fate! Presumably the set this is printed in would feature the child creature type, so I'm not too worried about the enchant child bit. This seems to be begging for a board wipe to be exiled with this; which begs the question: 'What happens when you cast a board wipe or fog effect and there are other creatures that would deal damage at the same time as the Child?

Bass Guitarist - 1R
A goblin girl is strumming a fish. Looks like she's having fun.
Creature - Goblin R
Prowess
Whenever you spend mana, roll 1d6. On 3-5, put a Gacha counter on Bass Guitarist; on a 6, put 2 Gacha counters on it. Then if it has 5 or more Gacha counters on it, flip it.
1/3

Hagumi, 5-star Bassist
With an instrument made of fish bones and strung with solid lightning, this creature is a striking presence on an already-gaudy stage. Are you allowed to print a card that's foil on just one end like this?
Legendary Creature - Goblin
Prowess
1R, Remove a Gacha counter from Hagumi, 5-star Bassist: Put a +1/+1 counter on target creature. It gains haste until end of turn.
5/5

First, let me say I am appreciative of the puns. This is both a magical girl, and a flip card. The Prowess encourages the casting of spells, which helps fuel the Gacha mechanic. Flipping over to Hagumi keeps Prowess, and allows the Gacha counters to be converted into something useful.

Spoiler: Burning Heart(h)

Hearth Tender 1R
Creature - Kithkin U
1R: Flip a coin. If you win the flip, flip Hearth Tender
1/3

Firebrand Bearer
Creature - Kithkin Elemental
When Firebrand Bearer attacks or blocks, you may have Firebrand Bearer deal 2 damage to another target creature.
At the beginning of the end step, flip a coin. If you lose the flip, flip Firebrand Bearer.
2/3

It's a Flip card. It might be a magical girl, but it isn't made clear. Unfortunately, it doesn't quite work as you intend it to. With a flip card, it has two states, unflipped and flipped. When it is first played i enters the battlefield unflipped, thatis with the normal topside up top. When it becomes flipped the normal topside is now the bottom. Flipping a flip card while it is already flipped does nothing. To do what you are trying to do you would have to put in something like 'If you lose the flip, exile Firebrand Bearer and return it to the battlefield [unflipped] under {your control/its owner's control}' You technically wouldn't need to specify unflipped, but that would make things clearer, and who you return it to would change how good a target for various theft shenanigans.

Adora, Horde Defect 1W
Legendary Creature-Human Soldier R
First Strike
2WW:Adora, Horde Defect gains indestructible until the end of the turn. Transform her.
2/1

She-Ra, Princess of Power
Legendary Creature-Human Soldier
Double Strike
She-Ra, Princess of Power gets +1/+1 for each color of creature you control other than white.
2/2

Glimmer is UW, Bow is RW, Etrapta is UR, Mermista is U, Catra is B, and Scorpia is RB, you get it

She-Ra is definitely a magical girl! I presume that She-Ra, Princess of Power has a white color indicator. The indestructible would carry over the turn when Adora transforms. As a 2/1 first-striker, Adora isn't all that bad. Transforming her into She-Ra upgrades her toughness and gives her Double-Strike. The second ability allows She-Ra to go up to a 6/6 (more with uncards).
