A popular anime, "Magical Girl Lalabel," Memo pad with a pass case Made by Showa Note The pass case contains a memo pad, name tag, business card, etc. Although unused, there is some deterioration over time, and one of the cards inside has stuck to the vinyl case, and some of the printing has transferred. "Magical Girl Lalabel" is based on the original work by Eiko Fujiwara, and produced by Toei Animation. It was broadcast on the TV Asahi network from February 15, Showa 55 (1980) to February 27 of the following year, with a total of 49 episodes. It was the final work in the Toei Magical Girl series, which was produced over 15 years, and unlike the previous Toei Animation magical girl anime, which often had relatively international elements even when set in Japan, "Magical Girl Lalabel" is characterized by its setting in a Japanese downtown area, and emphasizing Japanese-ness. Proverbs and sayings were woven into the story, and the story was concluded with Grandpa Sakuzo talking about the proverbs and sayings that were taken up in almost every episode. This is similar to the previous work, "Hana no Ko Lunlun," which concluded the story with flower language. It is an original anime work, and Eiko Fujiwara participated as the character designer. A manga with Eiko Fujiwara's illustrations was serialized in Shogakukan's grade-specific learning magazines, but it was not based on a manga, but a comic adaptation of the anime. Initially, there was a proposal to animate Eiko Fujiwara's hit manga "Uwasa no Himeko," but because "Uwasa no Himeko" was already in the process of being planned for animation by Shin-Ei Animation, it is said that it became a magical girl series with Eiko Fujiwara as the character designer. For fans of Showa anime, or those who were fans of Magical Girl Lalabel, how about it?
