From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nurse Witch Komugi (ナースウィッチ小麦ちゃんマジカルて, Nāsu
Witchi Komugi-chan Majikarute
?, majikarute is a pun on "magical"
and "karte", a German loanword used to refer to medical
records) is an OVA
series, which lasted for five episodes (six if episode 2.5 that
appeared in the middle of the series is included). All five
episodes were released on DVD in North America by ADV
Films. A two episode long sequel OVA series was created,
Nurse Witch Komugi-chan Magicarte Z.
The story of the anime itself is basically a parody of both the The SoulTaker anime series and the
Magical Girl anime genre. It revolves
around Komugi Nakahara, a cosplay idol who turns into Magical Nurse Witch
Komugi when trouble is around.
While the English dub of the show was adapted by ADV, the
original The SoulTaker dub was not. In a rare move, ADV
recalled many of the voice actors from The Ocean Group dub of The
SoulTaker to reprise their roles in Nurse Witch Komugi-chan to
keep consistency between the two dubs.
Characters
All but a few characters return from SoulTaker, appearing as
bizarre parodies of themselves.
- Komugi Nakahara
- Voiced By: Haruko Momoi (Japanese), Jocelyne Loewen
(English)
- The main character, a 17 year old cosplayer, who transforms
into Nurse Witch Komugi. She works for a talent agency called Kiri
Pro, where she acts and endorses products (usually while wearing
silly looking costumes). She can be very hyper and silly, which
usually gets her into trouble with her bosses. Her nurse witch
costume is a cross between a nurse uniform and a kemonomihristian
(English)
- Komugi's 'side-kick', a perverted rabbit-like creature from
Vaccine World who detects viruses.
- Kyousuke Date
- Voiced By: Mitsuki Saiga (Japanese), Brad Swaile
(English)
- A famous singer, working for Kiri Pro's rival company. He is
also Komugi's crush. In Soultaker, he was the protagonist of the
series.
- Koyori Kokubunji
- Voiced By: Ikue Otani (Japanese), Kira
Vincent-Davis (English)
- Koyori is a friend of Komugi and works with her as a model and
cosplayer. However, from time to time, Koyori will lose
consciousness and transform into Magical Maid Koyori, her evil
form. Koyori will then infect innocent people with viruses. She
could be considered Komugi's rival. She often gets frustrated at
being constantly defeated by Komugi and Mugimaru. After a time, she
will revert to her good form again with no memory of anything she
did in her evil form.
- Posokichi
- Voiced By: Ai
Shimizu (Japanese), Monica Rial (English)
- Magical Maid Koyori's 'side-kick', a quiet raccoon. In epidode
4, Magical Maid spends months training Posokichi to speak.
- Yui Kirihara
- Voiced By: Akiko Hiramatsu (Japanese), Lisa Ann Beley
(English)
- Ms. Yui is the president of Kiri Pro. She often scolds Komugi
when she messes up (which is quite often). She is 29 years old, and
once was a well-known and famous idol, and she fell in love with a
president from another talent agency, Mr. Richard. Everything was
going well for her, until Richard announced to the press that he
was in love with Ms. Yui's manager on the same day Ms. Yui was
going to announce her engagement to Richard. She was heart broken
and humiliated, so she quit the idol business and became the
president of her own talent agency.
- Shiro Mibu
- Voiced By: Masaya Onosaka (Japanese), Trevor Devall
(English)
- Shiro is Komugi's manager. He usually has a laid-back, relaxed
personality, but when Komugi skips out on her job (usually to
become Magical Nurse and save the city), then it's best to not
cross his path. He also will get stuck with Komugi's job until she
returns, usually wearing one of her costumes. Although he yells at
Komugi, he sticks up for her when Ms. Yui scolds her for her
disappearances and mess-ups. He has an assortment of nicknames for
Komugi, including "Little Shit" or "Little piss-ant girl"
(English translation). It's also been shown that he works
well with computers, for he designed and manages Komugi's personal
fan site for her.
- Megumi Akiba
- Voiced By: Atsuko Enomoto (Japanese), Jessica Boone
(English)
- Megumi also works at Kiri Pro, and is Komugi's bitter rival.
Megumi, unlike Komugi, has much sex appeal, and she is
often the one to tease Komugi about her flat chest, to which Komugi
retorts with an insult such as "Hooter's Girl" to insult her
enormous chest. Megumi is an image girl, posing for center folds
and posters, although she also has an interest in acting.
- Runa Tokisaka
- Voiced By: Michiko Neya (Japanese), Cynthia
Martinez (English)
- Runa is a child star at Kiri Pro. She normally seems calm and
cute, but she occasionally makes rude comments, usually about
Komugi. She, like Megumi, calls Komugi a flat-chest and a pseudo-Idol.
She takes advantage of her cute appearance to earn more money.
- Asuka Sakurai
- Voiced By: Yukari Tamura (Japanese), Shelley
Calene-Black (English)
- Asuka was once a movie actress, but was demoted to Kiri Pro.
Komugi thinks it's an honor to have a professional actor working
with her, but in reality it means Asuka is close to losing her job
as an actress. Asuka works hard at her job at Kiri Pro, and is
usually more responsible than Komugi or Megumi. She doesn't
complain much, but can lose her temper just as well as the others.
Unlike the other Kiri Pro employees, Asuka respects Komugi and
forms a friendship with her. In Magikarte Z, it is revealed that
Asuka hates Osaka with quite a
passion.
- Maya
- Voiced By: (Japanese), Christine Auten (English)
- Maya is the goddess of Vaccine World who sent Mugi-maru to
earth to find a human (Komugi Nakahara) to carry the magic baton
and defeat Ungrar.
