Customer Reviews of Magic User's Club! (Maho Tsukai Tai) - I'll Follow You (Vol. 1)
Not as good as it sounded This was on my wish list because other reviews made it sound so good. It was recommended because I liked Love Hina and Kiki's Delivery Service. Unfortunately, Magic User's Club just barely doesn't make the grade.
It looks like the creators wanted to make a space epic, then decided to turn it into a romantic comedy, and finally had to settle with a wacky fanservice comedy. The first episode suffers a few changes of tone before one of the main characters is defined enough to understand him.
I'm watching it with my two daughters, currently aged 6 and 9. They don't understand the more mature moments, but if that sort of thing offends you you'll definitely want to avoid this show, especially with its homosexual overtones.
There's just enough plot and character development to keep me watching until the end. It's generally cute, despite the whiny nature of its female lead. There are better things to watch with your kids.
Especially with only two episodes on each of the first three disks, these DVDs will go on my "trade" shelf.
Not what you think.
This is one of the best anime series out there.
Totally underrated and under-appreciated.
Its likening to Sailor Moon is not unprecedented. (Ikuko Itoh and Junichi Sato were key creators in both.)
It is true you only get 2 Episodes on each of the first 3 discs (the OVA) but don't believe reviews that say it's too short. There are 14 episodes from Maho Tsukai TV (made after the OVA) on discs 4 to 7 which makes this a longer series than Serial Experiments Lain and/or Hellsing and at this price, a much better buy!
Underrated Anime
Magic User's Club (Maho Tsukai Tai) is one of those anime titles that hasn't really made a big name for itself. Which is a shame as the animation is top notch on the OVA episodes. (1-6 on DVDs 1, 2 and 3) This is thanks to the input of Ikuko Ito (Sailor Moon , R, S and SuperS) This is the work she made instead of staying to work on Sailor Moon Stars. The colours are bold and cheerful and the animation is smooth and fun.
The series itself comes in two parts; The OVA episodes and the TV episodes. The OVA is far better visually and by means of storyline, but both are funny and follow the exploits of humourous and loveable characters.
This is a series that should be more popular but isn't. Something I attribute to the 'more mature' content and the sub-standard english language version. Luckily the japanese dialogue version with english subtitles is selectable.
Anyone who enjoys the likeable aspects of Sailor Moon and the adult humour of Uncut episodes of Tenchi Muyo! will love this series. (and the subbed version features the voice talent of Masaya Onosaka who has played Jadeite in Sailor Moon and Vash The Stampede from Trigun)
