''Persia, the Magic Fairy'' is the second MagicalGirl anime created by Creator/StudioPierrot, airing from 1984 to 1985.

11-year old Persia is an energetic young girl who has [[RaisedByWolves grown up alongside animals]] in the Serengeti. Twins Riki and Gaku Muroi bring Persia to Japan with them, where she [[MuggleFosterParents lives with a couple]] who own a grocery store. During the return flight to Japan, Persia finds herself in the "[[DreamLand Lovely Dream]]," the land where dreams are born and grow. The Fairy Queen appears before Persia in the form of a butterfly, and explains that the Lovely Dream is in danger, [[CallToAdventure requesting Persia's help]].

She gives Persia a magical golden headband which reacts to the word "Papurikko". With it, Persia can conjure a [[TransformationTrinket magic baton]] which bridges her world and Lovely Dream, as well as transform into an [[OlderAlterEgo older self]] by saying "[[ByThePowerOfGreyskull Perukko Raburin Kurukuru Rinkuru]]". She is sent with [[NonHumanSidekick three kappa]] back into the regular world with the mission of [[GottaCatchEmAll collecting love energy]] to [[SavingTheWorld thaw the frozen Lovely Dream]].

1985. It was the second of Creator/StudioPierrot's MagicalGirl works, after ''Anime/MagicalAngelCreamyMami''. It was succeeded by ''Anime/MagicalStarMagicalEmi'', ''Anime/MagicalIdolPastelYumi'' and ''Anime/FancyLala''.

11-year old Persia is an energetic young girl who has [[RaisedByWolves grown grew up alongside animals]] in the Serengeti. Serengeti plains of Africa. She's Japanese, but has lived in Africa for as long as she can remember, and one day, she is suddenly recalled back to Japan by her parents.

Twins Riki and Gaku Muroi bring Persia to Japan with them, where she [[MuggleFosterParents lives with a couple]] who own a grocery store. During the return flight to Japan, Persia finds herself in the "[[DreamLand Lovely Dream]]," the land where dreams are born and grow.

to:

*AdaptationDeviation: Believe it or not, in the original manga, there was no magic involved, and the MagicalGirl elements are entirely original to the anime.
*AdaptationalNameChange: The series changes many character's names from the original manga:
**In the manga, Persia was raised by a zoologist named Dr. Yasogami. In the anime, he was a scientist named Dr. Goken.
**Dr. Yasogami had two sons named Akira and Fudo. In the anime this was changed to the grandsons Riki and Gaku.
*AdjectiveNounFred: In Japanese, the series is called ''Magical Fairy Persia''.
*AfricaIsACountry: According to the anime, Persia was born and raised "in Africa" hence her WildChild behaviour. Okay, so she's from the Serenegti Plains, which is East Africa, but that can mean a whole load of countries. The anime also states that Persia is more inclined to "African culture" instead of her Japanese culture.
*AliensSpeakingEnglish: Or, more accurately, Fairies Speaking Japanese. Despite being entirely from other worlds, they communicate with Persia perfectly and even the TransformationTrinket given by the Fairy Queen is activated by Persia speaking Japanese.
*AnimeHair: Persia's blue hair sticks up, is spiky, and looks like a rag compared to the rest of the characters.
*ArtisticLicense: Africa (or at least the part where Persia lived in) is portrayed as a place where people dress in lioncloth (think like the cavepeople from ''Anime/RyuTheCaveBoy'').
*BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler:Persia is forced to give up her powers for good, but is able to meet with her magical friends one last time]].

*DenserAndWackier: The manga was much darker, with Persia's backstory being that she was an orphan raised by a lion until Dr. Yasogami found her. In the anime, Persia is more or less a ''Literature/{{Tarzan}}'' parody with how she dresses and loves being around animals.

DreamLand: Lovely Dream
Dream is a magical world populated by fairies, but it's at risk of being frozen over, hence the Fairy Queen choosing Persia to collect love energy for them.
