Synopsis

Renkin San-kyuu Magical? Pokaan follows the daily lives of four young girls. There is just one catch: they are anything but normal. This group of friends—the energetic werewolf Liru, the joyful witch-in-training Uma, the motherly android Aiko, and the seductive vampire Pachira—are actually princesses from the netherworld who have traveled to the human world in search of a new home. Unfortunately, their naivety and severe lack of knowledge make living peacefully among earthlings much more difficult than they imagined.

As they attempt to adapt to their brand new lifestyle, they cause all sorts of trouble, and end up attracting the unwanted attention of a woman by the name of Dr. K-Ko. The scientist believes that these new residents of Earth are up to no good and attempts to capture the girls to prove the existence of the supernatural and gain credibility with the scientific community. Every day brings a new adventure as the girls deal with the insanity of her antics and all that the human realm has to offer.

This is one of the best "chill" shows I've ever seen. The fact that it's ecchi and even has some hentai scenes in one episode probably drives a lot of viewers away but thats ok because "real" anime fans are the target audience of this show. It's funny, it's cute, it's relaxing, it's got cool supernatural stories.
I see some people hating on it for being episodic which I don't really get. Some shows are episodic, stories have been told episodically for millennia and there's nothing wrong with it. I preferred being able to put this on to wind down when I felt like ...

Revisiting Magipoka 15 years later, I found a lot of new things to appreciate that maybe went over my head when I was new to anime.

Good: It really has a unique vibe, and the surrealist elements make it stand out. The characters are super charming of course, and I also love how this show isn't afraid to have attractive male side-characters that the girls actively fawn over. Despite ostensibly being an ecchi comedy, they are depicted with genuine agency and they're allowed to be silly or stupid or unattractive sometimes!

Bad: There's a couple weird moments that don't really work for me, and the way the ...

Imagine if four magical princesses — a vampire, a werewolf, an android, and a witch — all boarded the same house, with little knowledge about the human world. For example, in Episode 2: まやかしの呪文はTVショッピング ("The Make-Believe Spell is TV Shopping"), the girls fall for some infomercial scams and order a ton of worthless items! The series itself is less of a monster show and more of a comedy, slice-of-life with a group of gal pals experiencing practical things, in the real world! As well as some strange supernatural events, like a group of devious ※Japanese raccoon dogs tricking the gullible girls into bathing in an ...
