It's exactly what it says on the tin. Anime, manga, and other forms of Asian entertainment like them.

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

Magical girls as in the transformation superhero kind? Or just girls using magic?

Good distinction. In my younger days when Anime choices were slimmer, I enjoyed Sailor Moon, and Nanoha. Nowadays, I can't remember the last time I watched a transforming Magical Girl anime, I much prefer the later. Fantasy settings, magic, Isekai (...which are abundant nowadays....bordering on too abundant, but I don't get tired of them because magic).

Edit: BTW, not a knock on Nahoha. As I recall, great series, though only gave it a once through. ... Now that I'm thinking about Magical Girl anime, also remember Figure 17 I think it was called... still have music from it's OST on my playlist; had some good battle music, and calming/relaxing music.
