Fancy Lala, known in Japan as Fancy Lala, the Magic Stage[2] (魔法のステージ・ファンシーララ, Mahō no Sutēji Fanshī Rara), is a magical girl anime series produced by Studio Pierrot in 1998, following an OVA released in 1988. A two-volume manga adaptation by Rurika Kasuga ran in Ribon. The original designs were created by Akemi Takada, who worked on many of the Studio Pierrot series of the 1980s. The anime series was licensed for English release by Bandai Entertainment with a dub produced in Calgary and Edmonton, Alberta, Canada by Blue Water Studios which was owned by Ocean Productions in Vancouver. This was the last magical girl anime Pierrot produced by Pierrot prior to Tokyo Mew Mew in 2002.
