On November 3, Tokyo Kasei University will host Record Day 2024: Japan’s largest event dedicated to analog records. It only seems fitting for Creamy Mami—Studio Pierrot’s magical, musical Showa-era idol—to put out a new release for the occasion!
Fans of 80s music can grab a new cassette tape release of last year’s Magical Angel Creamy Mami 80’s on VINYL, which features ten songs from Magical Angel Creamy Mami newly recorded by lead voice actress Takako Ohta. The tape will be priced at 2,300 yen.
No cassette player? No problem! A mini cassette player will also be available, featuring art of Yu and her alter ego Mami. The player is sold separately and priced at 5,980 yen.
Both the cassette and the cassette player will go on sale in stores and online shops on November 2, the day before the event.
Magical Angel Creamy Mami debuted from Studio Pierrot in 1983, and is considered by many to be one of the first media mix anime projects. The series starred up-and-coming idol Takako Ohta as 10-year-old Yuu Morisawa and pop star alter ego. After helping a pair of cat-like aliens find their way home, Yuu is gifted with an alien compact, which she may use as she wishes for one year. The 52-episode series follows Yuu’s misadventures as she (as Mami) unexpectedly rises to stardom.
