Ojamajo Doremi, Anyone?

Wed Oct 19, 2005 7:25 pm

OK, so if you remember, I did make a post about this a while back. And, out of curiosity, I wanted to see if there were people who actually watched it.

I've found it's got a really large fan base. ^^ Especially in France. :D I've also done a LOT of studying on the show, so now I'm friends are all calling me the Ojamajo Nerd. :roflol:

So...anyone watch it?

I know I've heard the name before, but I haven't seen it yet. Is it commercially released yet in the US, or something I will have to find from an "alternative" source? I'm always willing to check out something new. ^_^

I've had it for quite some time, but haven't gotten a chance to watch it yet. As far as I know, it's just on . . . FoxBox, I think? I know it's one of those Saturday morning channels. Other than that, it's not released on dvd here yet.

Thanks for the info, Jasujo. Looks like it'll be awhile before I see it then. ^^; I'll look and see if I can find any info on plans to release something uncut and subtitled. Being a purist means I often have to wait to see things, but it's usually worth the wait anyway. ^_-

It's on 4KidsTV/FoxBox. You may also have luck searching under Magical Doremi, the show's dubbed name in France and the US.

I swear I saw a site selling it. n_n I'll do some searching. ^^

Lol um, I watched Ojamojo Doremi in Cantonese when I was, what, 7? xD I think I used to like it (even though the girl-to-witch transformation was lame and embarassing to watch,) but it's kind of childish right now, no? -.-

Depends on which season. I'll admit season 4, was too easy, I mean...you spray some sort of spray, and poof, you're a witch?! Geez, I'm surprised my little sister hasn't tried that yet! (She's sure gullible enough!)

Worst one of all is the second season. From MagicalDoremi.net:

The magical tap (Rizumu Tappu) also changes in this season, besides, the way to transform into a witch is also different : she presses the center of the tap, but it doesn't fly in the air anymore. The apprentice must then clap twice in her hands with the tap, and the gloves appear. Then she does the same thing hitting each foot with it, and the boots appear. Then, she raises her arms up and claps three times, the dress appears and she puts it, and finally she hits her head twice with it and the hat comes, she lays down the tap on her waist and makes her pose like in the first season !


OK, my rant is officially done. Aside from that, I like it! :D

I still haven't seen the show, but I did just realize today that my favorite pair of chopsticks, when I received from a friend in Japan 4 to 5 years ago, are Ojamajo Do-re-mi chopsticks! They're pink and quite cute. I had never noticed, because the character on them was unfamiliar, and the writing is pretty small (and at the time, meant nothing to me). Today, for some reason, I was looking a bit closer at the picture and realized it was familiar, then looked closer and could just barely make out the title. Fun, ne?

Okay...so may I'll be the only one amused by this story...

FoxBox? I get that, I think. I'll definitely have to check it out. I've heard of it a few times, but never seen it, It sounds good. ^.^
