User Reviews

Lighthearted, mischevious and funny

A six-episode pet project, Mahou Tsukai Tai! (I Want to Use Magic!) is funny, perverted at times, but all and all, a very cute show that should appeal to all sorts of anime fans. It is not for kids despite the cute apperance of the characters and the trademark teddy bear (Jeff-Kun) of main character Sae.
