What’s the Big Deal?

Cassette Comeback
Remember cassette tapes? Well, they’re making a comeback. Creamy Mami fans can grab a new cassette tape of Magical Angel Creamy Mami 80’s on VINYL. This awesome tape has ten Creamy Mami songs, freshly recorded by Takako Ohta, the original voice actress. It’ll cost you 2,300 yen (about $20).
If you don’t have a way to play cassettes, don’t sweat it. They’re also selling a cute mini cassette player with pictures of Yu and Mami on it. It’s a bit pricier at 5,980 yen (around $50), but how cool is that?
Want to get your hands on these goodies? They’ll be available in stores and online starting November 2nd, just in time for the big event.
What’s Creamy Mami All About?
For those who don’t know, Magical Angel Creamy Mami hit TV screens back in 1983. It was one of the first anime shows to really mix music, merchandise, and storytelling. The story follows 10-year-old Yuu Morisawa, who can transform into the pop star Creamy Mami. She got this power after helping some alien cats, who gave her a magical compact to use for a year.
Why It’s Special
This show was a big deal because it starred Takako Ohta, who was a rising star at the time. She voiced both Yuu and Mami, bringing the character to life on and off-screen. The show ran for 52 episodes, following Yuu’s crazy adventures as she accidentally becomes a famous singer.
So, whether you’re an old-school Creamy Mami fan or just curious about 80s anime, this is your chance to experience a piece of pop culture history. Get ready to press play on this magical musical journey.
