Some characters are not magical girls

[edit]

@Theobscure: Some characters listed on this page are not magical girls or not from magical girl series. Magical girl is a very specific genre originating from Japan that heavily depends on young girls using magical powers, where transforming into an alter-ego is key to using powers to solve their problems. It does not mean "any female character who can use magic." In addition, I noticed you listed villains like Izuru from Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch, who is not a magical girl because older women are almost never magical girls. lullabying (talk) 20:59, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the redirect

[edit]

Topic may be related but this specifies a list of magical girl characters and not just works alone. References include those categorized by Anime News Network as belonging to the magical girl genre.--Theobscure (talk) 09:31, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
