Magical Witch Punie-chan (Dai Mahou Touge, a.k.a. "The Great Magical Gap" in Japanese), is a shonen manga series written by Hideki Ohwada and published by Kadokawa Shoten. It was serialized in ''Ace MomoGumi from 2001 to 2007 and compiled in four tankōbon volumes.In 2006, the manga was adapted into an Original Video Animation by Studio Barcelona. It is directed by Tsutomu Mizushima, who previously directed Bludgeoning Angel Dokuro-chan, a better-known series with which it shares quite a few similarities in the comedy department. The show has been released in the west by Media Blasters as Magical Witch Punie-chan, but they omitted the omakes from the original. It was re-released dubbed in June 2011.Punie Tanaka is a Princess of Magical Land, and heir to her mother's throne. However, in order to become Queen, she must spend a year in a normal Japanese High School. Besides the normal high-school troubles that you might expect, she must also deal with assassins who want to make sure her family will no longer control Magical Land, as well as competition from her two little sisters. Hilarity Ensues, but not how you might expect. Because Punie is far, FAR from being your typical Magical Girl.As the series progresses, more characters are introduced and more and more tropes are shattered.There's Tetsuko, the Straight Woman who can only watch in horror as Punie and all the "villains" she attracts rip apart every ounce of innocence in the world. There's Anego, the local gang leader and Punie's rival, who really doesn't stand a chance. And then there's Paya-tan, the mascot.As a very dark deconstructive satire of the Magical Girl genre, Dai Mahou Touge constantly pushes the envelope, and then arguably sets the envelope on fire. And then it bakes the ashes into a pie, which will be delicious. | |

Dirty Coward | |
| Magical Witch Punie-chan / int_1235f055 | comment |
Dirty Coward: Punie’s father, despite looking like a typical punk from Fist of the North Star, who were notable for being foolhardily brave, is a coward who starts worrying whenever the slightest thing doesn’t go his way. He contrasts well with Esmerelda, who spends most of her screen time being serenely calm. | |

Evil Sounds Deep: Punie's voice deepens when she drops the cutesy princess act. Especially apparent in the English dub where Punie's VA Veronica Taylor has her voice drop like a rock. | |

Defeat Means Friendship | |
| Magical Witch Punie-chan / int_19769f50 | comment |
Defeat Means Friendship: Anego becomes pretty chummy with Punie after the first episode, although it seems more like a grudging admiration of Punie's viciousness than a real friendship. Elise joins Punie's class after being defeated, and helps Anego carry Tetsuko out of the school after an accident. She's probably not too friendly with Punie, though. | |

"Do It Yourself" Theme Tune | |
| Magical Witch Punie-chan / int_20b5cce7 | comment |
"Do It Yourself" Theme Tune: Rina Sato performs both the opening and ending theme of the series. In a sharp contrast, while the opening is sung in a cheerful and happy-go-lucky tone (though the lyrics are anything but friendly), indicating Punie's fake personality, the ending is performed in a much more deeper, solemn and somber way (with the lyrics talking about how Punie is going to destroy her enemies), referencing her true nature. | |

Kryptonite Factor | |
| Magical Witch Punie-chan / int_22ecc839 | comment |
Kryptonite Factor: The reason Punie keeps resorting to her submission techniques is because everyone and their dog seems to have access to the evil doll that can seal off her magical powers. It is subverted in that if anything, this only makes the ensuing beatdown worse. | |

Everybody's Dead, Dave | |
| Magical Witch Punie-chan / int_22f6000b | comment |
Everybody's Dead, Dave: The sport's festival's conclusion. Anego and Punie's sisters has successfully destroyed Punie's army, and are pursuing her. At this point, Punie tearfully admits that the era of traditional combat is past...and now begins the age of gunpowder. Cue her horse leaping over lines of reserve troops with flintlock rifles, who proceed to kill more or less the entire student body. Anego is the only survivor, and even she keels over after a final word. Shortly thereafter, Punie's sisters are shown captured...and Punie spanks them for "not being nice". Fortunately for everyone else, it seems Anego's Highlander-esque immortality is a common trait for the rest of the students, and they're right as rain next episode. | |

Deceptively Silly Title: The English title brings to mind other cutesy Magical Girl works aimed at young girls, but it's really a Black Comedy that contrasts a cute art style with brutal violence. This isn't so much the case with the original Japanese title, Dai Mahou Touge, which is a reference to The Sword of Doom (known in Japanese as Dai-bosatsu Touge). | |

Harmless Villain: Up until the last episode, everyone except for Paya-tan, who put up a rather good fight can't do anything to Punie. This has less to do with them being weak as with Punie winning the Superpower Lottery. | |

What Punie is when she drops the nice princess act. However since this series is a parody, all of Punie's acts of villainy are Played for Laughs. Interestingly, Punie is both a Magical Girl and Dark Magical Girl at the same time as (unlike her mother) Punie seems to be completely genuine when's she's being nice or serious. | |

Even her sisters got off easy considering all of their devastating attempts on her life (going from summoning a Physical God who smashed the school in half to having their team of the students massacre Punie's in an attempt on her life). | |

Gunship Rescue: Done by Colonel Paya Livingston aboard an attack chopper, complete with Ride of The Valkyries-esque music playing in the background. It devastates Punie's classroom and even injures a few students for real. It is all to prevent Punie from failing her math test. Granted, it's that or Punie will nuke everything within 1 Astronomical Unit* That's nine billion two hundred ninety-six million miles by the way, give or take to prevent anybody knowing that she sucks in math. | |

Informed Ability - Punie's submission techniques mostly work because most of her opponents obviously didn't learn the (relatively simple) defenses against them. Letting her walk up to you is not a good idea, for example. | |
