The story of Creamy Mami, the magical girl who captured anime fans’ hearts 35 years ago, is returning in the form of a spin-off online manga!
Fans of old-school anime may remember Creamy Mami, the Magic Angel, the magical girl anime that aired in Japan from July of 1983 to June of 1984. Well, it’s been 35 years, but we’re thrilled with the news that the series is getting a revival as a spin-off manga on an online comic site!
The new spin-off manga, titled Creamy Mami The Magic Angel : The Unhappy Princess (Mahō no Tenshi Kurīmī Mami: Fukigen na Ohimesama) will apparently center on Megumi Ayase, a rival character (yes, Japanese girls’ manga/ anime love rival relationships) who appeared in the original anime as an idol who views Creamy Mami’s sudden rise to fame as a threat to her own popularity.
For those of you not familiar with Creamy Mami, the anime centers around the 10 year-old girl Yū Morisawa, who is given magical powers by aliens to change into the beautiful 16-year-old Mami.
