Provided is a magenta toner that delivers superior durability in a high-temperature and high-humidity environment as compared with conventional products. This magenta toner comprises a binder resin, a magenta colorant, a release agent, and an external additive, and is characterized in that: the magenta colorant comprises compounds A, B, and C that each have a specific chemical structure; and in a DSC-curve obtained by measurement using a differential scanning calorimeter, the release agent has a maximum endothermic peak in a 70-80°C range during a rise in temperature. |
