Magical Do Re Mi (Fox)

common sense media says

Magic and responsibility mingle in this cartoon.


parents & educators say

What parents need to know

Parents need to know that these little girls are training to become witches. Some moral lessons about empathy and care-giving might rub off on kids, but some of the language can be a bit gruff ("Kick butt" and "shut up"). Younger kids may find the line between fantasy and reality blurred.

Positive messages: Girls try to help other people.
Violence & scariness: Not applicable.
Sexy stuff: Not applicable.
Language: "Kick butt" and "shut up" every once in a while.
Consumerism: Tie in to product worth watching for.
Drinking, drugs, & smoking: Not applicable.

What to talk about

Talk to your kids
Families can talk about magic and magical powers. If kids could have any magic power in the world, what would it be, and why?

What's the story?

What's the story?
In MAGICAL DO RE MI, three third-grade friends named Dorie, Reannie, and Mirabelle learn the ways of magic by casting spells and being mentored by their superiors. As Witchlings, the girls are required to pass eight stages of apprenticeship to become full fledged witches. They each have little fairy companions whom they must protect, which demands that they behave responsibly.

Is it any good?

Is it any good?
 

Young kids will love watching them dress in their special costumes, and may emulate how the girls fly through the air on their brooms. Generally, the adventures center around helping other kids, and some themes include lessons of respect and working hard to achieve goals. There's less fluff than other girl-oriented shows, but some exaggerated emotional reactions and language ("shut up") can be distracting.

Educational and Cute!!!! 4Kids' only good dub! (All the rest suck.)
This is a great show for kids, except 4Kids had to ruin it. Doremi Harukaze (Dorie Goodwyn) has crushes on a lot of boys time-after-time, and yells at her fairy, DoDo. Majo Rika (Patina) yells at the girls just for making one mistake. Pop Harukaze (Caitlin Goodwyn) literally hates her sister. Superstar and witch, Onpu Segawa (Ellie Craft) uses magic for bad reasons. In one episode, DoDo pees in Doremi (Dorie)'s bed. I personally like the original Japanese version better. (I'm on Mo~tto!)

PERFECT SHOW FOR EVERYONE!
ABSOULUTLY LOVE IT! It is a great show for kids ages 5 to 105 and it continues much further than aperance,the japnese verson goes much further,if your chiled gets hooked this show is no longer shown but can be found by thyping magical doremi into google and clicking witchling singalong. if you plan to get subed dvds thare may be languge riligius and cutural problems but nothing major.her favorite show from age 7 to 15.

I like it
People this is a great show! I don't think that the people at 4kids know what they did by taking it of the air. they should really put it back on.

 
You Don't Have To Be A Child To Love It!
I Cannot miss an episode...I'm 15 and I bet your thinking Im immature...But its better than sitting tight lipped and acting like I don't enjoy Manga. My entire family loves Magical Do Re Me, for its humor and life lessons. Who Cares about words like "Shut Up" in the show?... Its all in the fun and your kids are gonna say it no matter what! To all those who are complaining- Hows a great TV show like this a threat in a world opposite of the innocence? Let kids enjoy the magic. Hey- Enjoy it yourself even...If you think THIS is "Oooh! Too Naughty" for your kids...SELL YOUR TV 'coz this is as friendly as your gonna get!

I didn't really like it because I'm not a fan of magical girls and sing alongs so this might be a little bias. Anyways, this a good anime to watch, it's interesting, the characters aren't so annoying. It's pretty much like Sailor Moon except the characters are younger and cuter.

Boring!
Like I said, boring!

 
I wishh
i've been a fan since I saw this air in Japan in 2002, I was ten yeas old now, and I've waited FOREVER for it to be continued to be dubbed..to atleast get things of the purple witch, Ellie Craft..I'm 18 now and I'm shocked how we can't even get the whole first season dubbed by now. The show in general isa wsome. IN JAPANESE, but I think if they dubbed season 4, they would have a much bigger audiance, because to me it gets better going than it does starting out. I think it has to do with the characters mentioned and the time factor of when it was new which was the 90s, a cornier time, I can't stand any of the voices in english but if we WANT MORE to be dubbed (realllly hope Dokkan does) then we need to show support :(
