About Magikano

Looking for background on Magikano (マジカノ)? This comedy, fantasy and romance series by Tokyo Kids (2006) starts out like this. The setup: Haruo Yoshikawa’s life goes from average to unbelievable when his sneaky sisters share their family’s dirty little hidden—they’re all witches! Things only get crazier with the arrival of Ayumi—an enchanting young girl who’s bound and determined to arouse Haruo’s inner-magician.

As a comedy title, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. Voice work is led by Mitsuhiro Ichiki as Haruo Yoshikawa and Mai Nakahara as Maika Yoshikawa.

It will appeal most to viewers who want something light between heavier series. With 13 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.
