This series is another adorable "magic girl" anime I love. I vaguely remember watching the first two episodes online; I just didn't remember when. But I am fortunate to watch the series on YouTube.
Anyway, the story goes like this: One night, a beautiful girl, who flew on a broomstick, visited 12-year-old, tomboyish Himeko Nonohara. The girl had lovely, long hair and resembled Himeko perfectly. Her name is Erika, and she is a princess from a magic kingdom quite similar to the one in "Sally the Witch." She had come to give Himeko a magic hair ribbon/bracelet she had made for her to try. A member of the royal family qualifies for the throne by testing a magical invention. Well, the ribbon gives Hime the power to change into somebody, so long as she stands in front of a mirror. The ribbon also has the power to bring Hime's cherished stuffed lion, Pokota, to life to assist her in the many mishaps that come her way. So, that is all I could tell you, folks.
I really love the friendship Hime shares with Pokota and Erika; I thought it was so sweet. Overall, I like this lovely series, complete with a fantastic plot and animation. I look forward to the release of the series on DVD in North America, and I hope that the manga will be available in English someday.
