Mahoutsukai Tai! vs. Shamanic Princess

So, for those of you who happened to stumble upon this page, I'm sure you're wondering what this 1 episode OAV even is!
Well, it's a gag crossover special of the two 1996 OVA "Magic Users Club" and "Shamanic Princess." For those of you who haven't seen those two OVAs I highly recommend watching them.
Shamanic Princess is a deceptively cutesy looking magical girl show that is actually dark, violent and intense. The main magical girl Tiara and her "best friend" turn into demons and trying to choke each other, and cry blood out their eyes, it's metal as heck!! It is one of my favorite series ... of all time and that's why I absolutely had to see this OVA so that I could say I consumed everything Shamanic Princess.
Magic Users Club is also good, it was the more successful series of the two, it starts out as a cute ecchi comedy series about a club of witches, but it gets deceptively dark later. For those of you who watch the series and think it looks a lot like Princess Tutu, you'd be correct both series were made by Junichi Sato and both have similiar staff. Both Tutu and that show are about clumsy yet cute red headed girls who are trying to learn magic and both of them have moments of the main characters meeting horrifying creatures and standing up against impossible odds. They're both pretty good, although the original Ova of Magic Users Club is particularity great for its amazing animation. The TV series isn't quite as good visually, at least.
Anyway, both series in full are on Crunchyroll and Shamanic Princess is on even more streaming services including the app Tubi!
So with that out of the way, what exactly does this special include? Well it's basically a short epilogue to these two amazing shows, and also filled with some jokes of the characters from both shows crossing over and meeting each other.
This is really cool for multiple reasons. One is that these series were created by two entirely different worlds of creative people, Shamanic Princess being a product of the director of Outlaw Star’s anime adaption, with character design by a lady who worked with Clamp, Atsuko Ishida, and along with designing the characters of Shamanic Princess, she also designed the girls in in the TV anime adaption of Clamp’s Magic Knight Rayearth!
Meanwhile, Magic Users Club like I said, once again was created by Juninho Sato. With the talented Ikuko Itoh (character designer and co-creator of Princess Tutu), having helped with character design on Magic Users Club.
Shamanic Princess is so incredibly violent, dark and intense (It definetely has the most gore of any CLAMP magical girl series that I've seen) so seeing the characters be happy in this special was so so great.
So yeah, If you're a fan of this series this short will give you those good vibes. Watch the show on a site like Nyaa and hope that someday an Hd version gets uploaded to Crunchyroll in order to really finish out all the other Shamanic Princess and Magic Users Club content that they have
2026 Edit: I write this on New Years Eve before it becomes 2026, several years after I submitted my original review. I just wanted to say thank you everyone who supported this review, and please also check out the recommendations section of this OVA because I have submitted relevant recommendations that I also think you will enjoy if you liked this OVA. Also I can now confirm, as the year transitions to 2026, that my facts in this review are up to date and accurate (I researched them!)

Cute way to end out these series, and it's only about 6 minutes so worth the watch. I loved the Magic User's Club OVA but couldn't track down the tv series anywhere. Just finished Shamanic Princess and am currently obsessed with it (lol) needless to say I'm a big fan of both so it's nice to see any additional content from them since they're so short. It is funny so see such a cute show paired with something as melancholy as SP, that was fun. Now to try and fill the OVA shaped hole in my otaku heart.

Thank you BandDog_Onymou for all the additional info!
