Pretty Pretty Please I Don’t Want to be a Magical Girl is the story of normal, average, everyday, not at all special Aika. Going to her first day of high school. Nope, no magical star destineys coming after this one. ....Those are in a box.
This is a mixed animatic pilot, with full animation for a min. Made by Kiana Khansmith in the hopes of getting picked up by a studio.
