History Anime / MajokkoMegChan

* TearJerker: The show's ending song, "Meg Is All Alone", which in itself, is very melancholic for an anime ending theme, following in the same vein as that of ''Anime/CutieHoney'' (and sung by the same vocalist).

* {{Meganekko}}: Roko.

* CharacterDevelopment: Meg matures from being essentially a [[BrattyTeenageDaughter selfish, self-centered brat]] to [[TheHeart a more giving and thoughtful person]] (though [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold still not without her flaws]] - which makes her seem all the more real).

* HotterAndSexier: The series featured {{Fanservice}} in the form of {{Panty Shot}}s, slight nudity, {{lingerie scene}}s, blatant female/female ShipTease between Meg and Non, and Meg being a FilleFatale. It also included characters as the DirtyKid Rabi (Megu's stepbrother) and DirtyOldMan Chou.

** In another episode, a model of Anime/GreatMazinger is seen in the window of a toy shop. Cutey Honey and Mazinger were both also Toei Animation shows.

* TearJerker: The show's ending song, "Meg Is All Alone", which in itself, is very melancholic for an anime ending theme.

** Meg, especially compared to the protagonists of earlier magical girl shows, like [[Manga/SallyTheWitch Sally Yumeno]], [[Anime/MahouNoMakoChan Mako Urashima]] or [[Manga/HimitsuNoAkkoChan Akko Kagami]]. She constantly fights with the school bully and her annoying younger siblings.

** HypnoPendulum: Meg is hypnotized in this manner. To elaborate, the pervert Chou fantasizes about using a pendulum to hypnotize Meg, and later uses a cuckoo clock.

** MrFanservice: Not all of the implied/non-explicit nudity is female. Chou's HypnotizeThePrincess gambit in episode 23 also ensnares a (male) teacher, who begins {{streaking}} around the campus. (Hey, this was 1974, the height of the streaking fad.) In another episode, Rabi loses his swimming trunks during a swimming race due to another of Chou's pranks (Meg had given him inflatable trunks so that he wouldn't sink in the pool, but Chou's crow makes the trunks malfunction and destroys them).

** One episode shows Meg watching Anime/CuteyHoney on the television. In addition, she's tuned to channel 10, which is the channel of the series' co-producing TV station, NET (now Creator/TVAsahi).

''Majokko Meg-chan'' is an early MagicalGirl {{Anime}}. Based on a proposal by the production company Hiromi Productions as a follow-up to ''Anime/MiracleShojoLimitChan'', a TV series was made by Creator/ToeiAnimation in 1974, originally aired on NET (now Creator/TVAsahi) and affiliated stations. This particular story codified many of the tropes that would later become staples of the MagicalGirl genre.

* FlowerInHerHair: Meg wears a yellow flower in her hair. S

* TeamRocketWins: The series concludes with [[spoiler: both Meg and Non failing their test and being sent BACK to Earth all because Chou manipulates them, and he [[KarmaHoudini gets off scot-free for it.]] Of course, considering his extreme ButtMonkey status, one could consider this a ThrowTheDogABone moment.]]

* DubNameChange: In the Italian dub, Meg's name is changed to Bia and Non becomes Noa, but most of the other characters' names are not changed. Meg is also known as Maggie in the Latino Spanish dub and retains her original name in French.

* HeelFaceTurn: Saturn’s loyal servant Rosa is sent to the human world to kill Megu. She fails at first, and Megu takes her home, so she tries her best to be kind and change her views. Eventually Rosa comes around and sees the beauty of Megu’s heart. Saturn becomes furious and gives her one last chance to kill Megu.; instead Rosa attempts suicide, but is saved by the Queen.

** Meg, especially compared to other heroines of the time like [[Manga/SallyTheWitch Sally Yumeno]], [[Anime/MahouNoMakoChan Mako Urashima]] or [[Manga/HimitsuNoAkkoChan Akko Kagami]]. She constantly fights with the school bully and her annoying little brother.

* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Roko disappears after Emi is introduced and takes her role as Megu's friend.

* DisproportionateRetribution: In the very first episode, Rabi pranks Meg at dinner by putting a frog in her teacup. After getting GreenAroundTheGills, Meg reacts by grabbing Rabi, slapping him across the face repeatedly, and ''throwing him against the china cabinet'', breaking the glass in the cabinet in the process. She also violently throws off Apo when Apo tries to calm her down. Unlike most of Meg's other reactions to Rabi's pranks (including his more ''ecchi'' pranks), this time it wasn't PlayedForLaughs - indeed, it sets off a chain of events which almost results in Meg's ''death''. It also establishes Meg as a {{Hypocrite}} at the start of the series, as she had just pranked Papa by using her magic to put salt in his tea while he said grace.

* FlowerInHerHair: Meg wears a yellow flower in her hair.

* FilleFatale: Meg. The girl is pretty aware of her good looks, is coquettish and outspoken (unlike the more mellow heroines of the time) and the OP of the series has her singing about using her beauty to woo the guys and get what she wants from them.

* FlyingBroomstick: More in the opening than in the series.

* DisproportinateRetribution: In the very first episode, Rabi pranks Meg at dinner by putting a frog on her tea saucer. After getting GreenAroundTheGills, Meg reacts by grabbing Rabi, slapping him across the face repeatedly, and ''throwing him against the china cabinet'', breaking the glass in the cabinet in the process.
