Trivia / Mahou no Mako-chan

• He Also Did: Despite this series' relative obscurity compared to its predecessors Sally and Akko-chan, it provided early exposure for some big names. The title role of Mako was one of the earliest voice roles for Kazuko Sugiyama, who would go on to play Jun the Swan in Science Ninja Team Gatchaman, Heidi in Heidi, Girl of the Alps, and Ten-chan in Urusei Yatsura to name a few. Mitsuko Horie, only 13 at the time, sang the opening and ending theme songs. And the character designer, Shinya Takahashi, would go on to work on anime as varied as Cutie Honey, Ranma ½ and Neon Genesis Evangelion.
