Mahou no Star Magical Emi

Some 80s anime with openings I really like. I'll probably add more to the list with time.

A list of magical girl shows released between 1966 and 1998. Made using this awesome tumblr post: https://chiibinomonodamon.tumblr.com/post/99031991319/there-you-go-every-fcking-magical-girl-from

Anime aired in Spain's TV channels (public or private), listed with the Spanish title. Might be missing some or be messy: I wanted to add the most important but also the less obvious. Excluding most sequels & movies.

IMPORTANT: Check part 2, 3, 4 and 5 + OVA.

-------------------------------------------------------

ES: Anime emitido en los canales públicos o privados de la televisión de España, con sus títulos en español. Pueden faltar algunos animes o estar desordenados: he querido añadir lo más importante pero también lo menos obvio. Excluyendo la mayoría de películas y secuelas.

IMPORTANTE: Ver parte 2, 3, 4, 5 + OVA.


key words: canal sur, animax, k3, tve, neox, clan, tele5, jetix, buzz, boomerang, tvc, cuatro, lasexta, antena 3, cartoon network, castilla la mancha tv, televisió de catalunya, canal plus, autonómica, local, canal 9, locomotion.

Animes focused on the world of entertainment, the music industry, different types of disciplines and art.

before sailor moon took the mahou shoujo genre by storm in the early 90's, many magical girl series were (in my opinion, anyway) often more like pre-cursors to the nichijou-kei/slice of life and kirara-kei/cute girls doing cute things genres that are popular today.

in a time of economic turmoil in japan, sailor moon was a perfect series to receive an anime adaptation because it could--theoretically--appeal to multiple markets across gender-genre lines, giving it a "two for one" value to its production committee members. for example, sailor moon was able to incorporate elements of popular battle series' (that, supposedly, appealed to young boys) into a story that was aesthetically and thematically more familiar to the (supposedly) young girl readership of shoujo manga. add to this stellar combination an appeal to the important consumer demographic of the "first otaku generation" of the 80's, especially in regard to sailor moon's denotation as a "BISHOUJO senshi" in a sailor suit, and the companies sponsoring that anime adaptation had a brilliant piece of intellectual property that had nearly endless potential for merchandising.

the older magical girl series', especially those released in the japan's economic bubble period of the 80's, were more directly focused on the latter two of the three demographics described above. yes, most of them were supposedly intended as entertainment for young girls, but as the bishoujo era of the 80's kicked off, production committees could no longer deny the popularity of shoujo manga and anime with otaku consumers.

this list will contain mahou shoujo anime series that premiered before the premiere of the sailor moon anime adaptation. i'll attempt to order them from most to least important to viewing the genre from this perspective, but certainly my personal biases will come into play, so yes, i'm putting minky momo before sally the witch. please forgive me.

Studio Pierrot produced various Mahou Shoujo series between 1983 and 2006 that ended up being called the "Studio Pierrot Magical Girls".

"Tokyo Mew Mew" and "Sugar Sugar Rune" can count or not depending on the point of view because they have little to nothing in common with the other series.

Compiling older magical girl in case anybody wants to do a deep dive into the genre. Anything before 2000.

Using this [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLZYtFRoMGQ | Magical Girls Timeline 1966-2020] as reference for this stack, I made it in hopes it might help people who are into this genre find anime they haven't watched/didn't know existed yet.. or really just people who'd like to get into something new.

There are 4-5 anime I haven't included simply because they're ecchi and I really wanna try to keep this, well, non-ecchi.

Notes:
If the anime is saved under a different name in the original list (and the ID matches), the listed title is added as a comment. The anime will keep its place according to the list - even if it will no longer be alphabetically correct according to its main title on MAL. This is to make the job of checking and updating these much easier for me.

*The main stacks do NOT include hentai. This is both for people who want to avoid it, and because including it will significantly limit the stack. Please proceed to the Hentai Edition™ in the list below if you're into that.

Once upon a time, before KPI and censorship strikes, these are the list of anime that ever aired on Indonesian TV.

I'm compiling the list from all around the Internet and some from collective memory.
If you remembered anything wrong or missing from this stack, please message me.
Sequels are not listed here.

Since only 50 can be listed as a stack, this will be separated into several part.
Part 1: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/35256
Part 2: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/35344
Part 3: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/35464
Part 4: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/35768
Part 5: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/35767
Part 6: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/35779

This list includes anime aired on SCTV, Lativi, RTV and NET TV.

*Might be incomplete.
**Data from TVRI is very scarce, if you have more info about anime that ever aired especially in the 1980's, please message me.

Pre-2000s magical girl shoujo anime.

I made this list because I wanted to start watching more classic anime. In order to make this list, I needed to set my own parameters. For simplicity, I chose 1980 and 2001. After browsing through MAL by season from 1980-2001, these are the ones that looked fun. Some are well known, others have a specific genre tag that I usually enjoy. Therefore, this list contains a variety of genres: mahou-shojo, idol, romance, etc.
Hope you enjoy it <3

List of animated series by Studio Pierrot in the magical girl genre. This list contains important works that share certain common characteristics and that marked a before and after in the magical girl genre.

Note #01: Urusei Yatsura is a Magical Girlfriends series, which although it comes from the same origin as magical girls, many do not consider it one, personally, I DO consider Urusei Yatsura a magical girl series since Lum has special powers, which is a central characteristic of magical girls. Ten, Lum's cousin, fulfills a similar function to that of magical pets in other series. The series itself is from the Magical Girls subgenre, "magical girlfriends", the girls usually have special abilities and are involved in romantic relationships with normal characters, Lum fits perfectly into this description, being Ataru's alien girlfriend with magical powers that fit the characteristics of a magical girl. Although "Urusei Yatsura" is primarily a comedy, there are episodes that touch on themes of self-improvement, friendship, and growth, which are central to many magical girl stories. That's why I, PERSONALLY, put it on this list as a magical girl series.

Note #02: "Tokyo Mew Mew" and "Sugar Sugar Rune" are not considered part of this list since they were born from a manga and not as an original idea. But, personally, I like to believe that they are part of this list.

G-rated (for small children who are 0 year old onwards) magical girl anime
