The Magical Girl genre was never a favorite of mine, probably because most of the series in it are exactly like each other. So when I came across Magical Play, I was hesitant at first, but I eventually gave in. I am glad that I gave in.
Okay, The main characters are Padudu, a girl who has magical powers and wears a fish (yes, it's alive), Pipin, Padudu's "rival" who has a giant plush bunny, and Myumyu, a girl who wears two cats.
As far the bad guys go, there are only two. Queen Purilun, (obviously) the queen of whatever planet/alternate dimension this wacky story takes place on/in, and Zucchini, the young boy (I'm guessing he's 13-14 years old) who is the queen's servant. His job is to spy on Padudu and her friends (which is hard for him, since he has an obvious crush on Myumyu and is always drooling and getting nosebleeds over her).
Sounds generic, huh?
Well, there is one thing that sets MP apart from the rest: The plot goes NOWHERE! It has no plot! But it has some hilarious stuff. Padudu's stupidity, Pipin's... voice, Myumyu's cats, and Zucchini's nosebleeds are some of the hilarity that makes this anime what it is.
If you get the chance to watch/buy this, do not pass up the opportunity! This is simply wonderful.
