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

Shoujo and josei OVAS from the 70's, 80's and 90's (I also added some from the 2000's ^^)

The criteria here is simple: Anime released in 2001 or earlier, with under 25,000 MAL Members, and which I've rated a 6 or higher.

A rating of 6 counts for this second Obscurities list given the increased obscurity. A 6 is still an alright score. I've excluded anything that's particularly well-known, like Speed Racer or Voltron, despite both meeting my criteria.

It is perhaps worth noting that I rate things entirely on gut feeling. It's just, "I like that, that was good, it gets a 7.", that's the whole process. I can also find enjoyment in just about anything and there's very little that bothers me.

Includes all* anime on the Anime+/GRAPH mahou shoujo/magical girl achievement list

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.

Dark magical girl anime released before Puella Magi Madoka Magica

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.

All OVAS,ONA,Special, TV Special with Opening for AMQ, Famous or not!
