a.k.a. Magipoka or Renkin San-kyuu Magical? PokaanMagical Pokaan, a 12-Episode Anime from 2006, is to fantasy what Galaxy Angel is to science fiction. The setup is that four princesses from the Netherworld are sent to Earth to figure out the way humans live. From there, it's all about the comedy. There's Liru, the werewolf, who turns into a cute puppy at the sight of anything that resembles the full moon... except for, oddly, the full moon; Pachira, a vampiress who really wants a larger bust size; magically incompetent Yuuma; and Aiko, a gynoid whose technical data makes your old 2.4GHz Pentium Dual Core look like something from a Sufficiently Advanced Alien. There's also their nanny/chaperone, the invisible Keimie, who is mostly either absent or silent for the most part.Now if only their recurring nemesis Dr. K-ko learned that these girls aren't harmless at all...If you enjoyed Galaxy Angel, Magical Pokaan is a short, sweet, fun ride. | |

Reused Character Design | |
| Magical Pokaan / int_277686f2 | comment |
Reused Character Design: The blue haired woman in the Hotspring episode bears a striking resemblance to Kei from Hand Maid May. Same face, glasses, and hair color with the only difference that the blue haired woman's breasts are much larger. Considering that same character designer for Hand Maid May work on this series, it's definitely more than a coincidence. | |

Beach Episode | |
| Magical Pokaan / int_44f6517d | comment |
Beach Episode: Episode 5 involves a trip to the beach. The first half has it ruined by a sudden typhoon, forcing them to improvise at the nearby sauna (much to the proprieter's chagrin). They're finally able to make it while the weather is nice in the second half, and spend the episode trying to help a mermaid get together with a cute guy (or trying to get with that guy themselves). | |

Become a Real Boy: Aiko's biggest dream is to become a human. She gets her chance in episode 8 when the girls travels to the Andromeda galaxy, where mechanical-to-flesh conversion technology is rumored to exist. Due to the nature of the magic they used to get there, she had to leave before the process could be completed, though. | |

Beeping Computers | |
| Magical Pokaan / int_4e3b5209 | comment |
Beeping Computers: Played with (and arguably averted) in Aiko: she emits noises an android made of outdated computer parts might do. When waking up or deep in thought, she produces the sound of a hard disk spinning and seeking, and in one episode where she is malfunctioning, her speech skips and loops in exactly the same way audio playback stutters on a malfunctioning or underpowered computer. | |

Four-Temperament Ensemble | |
| Magical Pokaan / int_65bc92fc | comment |
Four-Temperament Ensemble: Yuuma is Sanguine: cheerful, childish, and somewhat scatterbrained, as well as seemingly the youngest of the group. Pachira is Choleric: commanding and strong-willed... though she is also somewhat arrogant and impatient with other people. Liru is Phlegmatic: easy-going, the most down-to-earth (along with Aiko) of the group, and tends to go with the flow rather than cause drama. Aiko is Melancholic: polite to a fault, quiet and reserved in demeanor, and takes the imitative to make sure everyone is cared for, and holds a Tragic Dream that she rarely mentions to the rest of the group. | |

Hot Springs Episode: The second half of episode 10, where the girls find a hot spring out in the middle of a snowy mountain. The other guests already there end up being particularly interesting, mostly in that they're tanuki. And they steal the girls' clothes. And the entire spring was an illusion. | |

Our Vampires Are Different | |
| Magical Pokaan / int_9f63d4f1 | comment |
Our Vampires Are Different: Pachira. She drinks blood (and can get addicted to it) but doesn't really need to (she does substitute it with tomato juice); isn't undead (she was born and grew naturally); can't convert humans; and while she's sensitive to sunlight, it doesn't kill her (supposedly turns her to ashes which she can regenerate from, but that may have just been a figure of speech). In fact, she's more of a youkai (vampire) batgirl than a traditional vampire, though she does have no reflection. | |
