It was also the last Magical Girl series made by Creator/ToeiAnimation until the 1988 remake of ''Manga/HimitsuNoAkkoChan'', as other studios (most notably Creator/StudioPierrot) picked up the slack during the eighties.

Lalabel is a MagicalGirl living happily in the [[MagicalLand magic world]], until the day she catches the thief Biscus stealing her magic tools. Startled by her sudden appearance, Biscus swings his magic wand around and accidentally transports the two of them into the human world.
