* LingerieScene: A TropeCodifier in regards to anime.

* ParentalFashionVeto: Ryuu-oh does *not* approve of his daughter wearing a two-piece bikini, and uses his magic to transform it into an old-fashioned one-piece. Mako changes it back.


Added DiffLines:

** Makoto Kino (Sailor Jupiter) in ''Anime/SailorMoon'' may be a Shout-Out to this series itself, as she's also known as "Mako-chan" to friends, she's also a brunette who wears her hair in a ponytail, and in one scene wears an outfit almost identical to Mako's civilian garb.

''Mahou no Mako-chan'' was the third entry in Toei's "majokko" series and the first to not be based on an existing manga. Along with contemporary ''[[Manga/AttackNumberOne Attack No. 1]]'', it's also one of the first anime made to appeal specifically to teenage girls. Despite having been adapted into Spanish, Italian, and French, it's was one of the more obscure magical girl series in its day, as it failed to repeat the success of its predecessors ''Manga/SallyTheWitch'' and ''[[Manga/HimitsuNoAkkoChan Himitsu no Akko-chan]]'', despite having been made specifically to appeal to viewers of those earlier shows as they progressed into adolescence. Nevertheless, it's regarded by many as a classic today.
