"Doki Doki Densetsu Mahoujin Guru Guru" is an anime series that aired on TV Tokyo in 2000 and is based on the manga of the same name by Hiroyuki Eto. It is a sequel to "Mahoujin Guru Guru" that aired from 1994 to 1995, and tells the story of Nike and Kukuri's adventures in a new way. Below we provide a detailed review and recommendation of this anime.

story

Nike and Kukuri continue their leisurely journey as usual. After a certain incident, they receive a message from Wan Chin, the leader of the Migu Migu tribe. Wan Chin tells them, "Kukuri, make all the demons your allies. The hero, collect the legendary swords." The two follow his words and head to the Endless Tower. For some reason, Kitakita Oyaji has followed them there, and they also meet up with their old friend Toma. Nike and Kukuri's adventure continues to be full of mishaps, such as being placed in a group of bandits in the new land of Copa Continent, and Kukuri being transformed into a demon in Arahabika, the mecca of monsters. The two manage to overcome the mystery of Guruguru and the confrontation with the Demon King Giri and somehow achieve their goal, but their journey is not over yet.

character

The charm of this anime lies in its unique characters. The main character, Nike, is a 13-year-old boy who leaves his hometown of Jimina Village to defeat the Demon King Giri. It is unclear whether he is aware of his role as a hero or not, but he displays great strength when the time comes and is also very lucky. At first, he often relies on Kukuri's Guruguru, but after learning light magic, he begins to take to the front lines on his own.

Kukuri is a 12-year-old survivor of the Migumigu tribe who can use the legendary dark magic Guruguru. She was secretly raised in the house of the magical old woman in Jimina Village and sets off on a journey with Nike to defeat the demon king Giri. Kukuri's love for Nike is her power, and she supports Nike with her powerful Guruguru.

Kitakita Oyaji is the successor of the Kitakita dance that is handed down in the town of Kita, and feels it is his mission to find someone to carry on the dance. He is not a bad person, but for some reason Nike and the others dislike him and ostracize him. His real name is Adberg Eldol.

Thomas Parrot is a very earnest and hardworking magic engineer. He has a personality that is the polar opposite of Nike, and he works hard at his training, but he also has a frightening side to him: he becomes a completely different person when he sees a rare item.

Juju Ku Shunamul is the daughter of a priest of the Plateau religion and a shrine maiden (Lunar) who can hear the revelations of God. Her nickname as a child was "Ku-chan", the same name as Kukuri.

Reid is the prince of the demon world, blessed with a talent for magic and invention, but many of his spells are poorly posed and lack character.
