The crowdfunding campaign for “Ojamajo Doremi 20-shūnen Carnival” (Ojamajo Doremi 20th Anniversary Carnival), the special event celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Ojamajo Doremi anime, launched on Wednesday and reached its 10,000,000 yen (about US$91,500) goal as of Thursday.
Majo Minarai o Sagashite (Looking for Witch Apprentices), a brand-new anime film commemorating the 20th anniversary of Ojamajo Doremi, will open in Japan on May 15.
The first Ojamajo Doremi anime series originally premiered in Japan in 1999, and 4Kids began broadcasting a heavily edited version of the series in the United States in 2005 under the title Magical DoReMi.
The Blu-ray Disc for the “Honobono Gekijō” anime shorts will also be available for purchase during the event.
