Fancy Lala (Mahō no Stage Fancy Lala (魔法のステージ・ファンシーララ)) is a "mahō shōjo" (magical girl) anime series produced by Studio Pierrot, which originally aired April 4 1998 - September 27 1998.
One day, apparently entirely at random, a nine-year old girl named Miho Shinohara (篠原みほ Shinohara Miho) who dreams of being a manga artist is given two stuffed dinosaurs. The stuffed dinosaurs come to life and present her with a magic sketchbook and pen. Within limits, and subject to varying degrees of control, she can draw in the sketchbook and bring the drawings to life. Miho finds that she can transform herself into a young woman whom she names Lala.
The series was influenced by several earlier Studio Pierrot productions from the mid-eighties, most notably Mahō no Tenshi Creamy Mami, the story of a nine-year-old Japanese girl granted the power to transform into a magical rock star. Pierrot's original magic girls were in turn inspired by cartoonist Osamu Tezuka's Fushigi na Merumo (Mushi/Tezuka, 1971), one of the most influential shōjo manga characters in the history of the medium.
