Today we look at Kiana Khansmith’s amazing new pilot animatic I Don’t Want To be a Magical Girl, and why this adorable and hilarious concept does a better job deconstructing the genre without being a total edge fest like some of it’s anime contemporaries!

I'd like to add on after seeing some posts from Kiana about people calling it a deconstruction: I am aware it's not a deconstruction in the sense of the edgier shows I used as examples, and its still an earnest (but subversive) magical girl show, I hope that at least clarifies some things. 🙂
Thanks for the video! Came from Reddit and learned more about the artist. I love her other works too.
