jennariaMAGICAL STAGE FANCY LA LA
Genre: Magical Girl
How much seen: one episode (subbed)
What it's about: I'm not sure. I'm really kinda not sure. Admittedly it doesn't help that the sound on the episode we were watching was a good two minutes off, and then gave up entirely about five minutes in, so we were watching in silence with only subtitles.
The plotline in that first episode went as follows: a girl has a dream (vision? what have you) of an apparent past life where she has a Mysterious Encounter with a man by the riverside and then her village was apparently taken down by Godzilla. And then she wakes up, and lo, her family is the same in her dream, which may or may not prove anything. She has a bad day at school, then to a shop, where she hears Something Talking. When she goes to leave, the shop owner stops her and accuses her of trying to steal something, because two small dragon figurines have apparently attached themselves to her bag, and you can see exactly where this is going even before the same Mysterious Guy from her dream/vision/whatever it was appears out of nowhere and pays for the figurines for her.
By this point, Kay was muttering not especially under her breath about "stupid dragons." Even when the figurines turned out to be alive (what a shock) and explained to the heroine that "we're something like fairies," it only changed her muttering to "stupid dragon fairies." Worse, the power that the dragon fairies can give her is that they can make her older. There's nothing else, and no explanation as to what she's supposed to do with this new superpower. The episode just sort of ends.
Overall opinion: Well, that was pointless. And not just because of the technical difficulties. Not watching any more episodes, thanks.

We have migrated upstairs, partially just for a change of scene and partially so Kay can have company as she cooks. Or perhaps so I can have company instead of being abandoned downstairs. It's all in how you look at it.
