The TV anime Magic Knight Rayearth, based on CLAMP’s beloved manga, will air on TV Asahi in 2026. Originally serialized in Nakayoshi (Kodansha) from 1993 to 1995, the story was first adapted into an anime by Tokyo Movie Shinsha in 1994. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of its broadcast, a “New Anime Project” was announced in July last year.
New Teaser Visual:
Magic Knight Rayearth manga was released in Kodansha’s Nakayoshi magazine from 1993-1996, with a total of six volumes in Japan and English versions. The anime series, directed by Toshihiro Hirano at TMS Entertainment, aired from 1994-1995 with 49 episodes. A three-part OVA was released in 1997.
The original Magic Knight Rayearth anime is still available on Crunchyroll and describes as follows:
Hikaru Shidou, Umi Ryuuzaki, and Fuu Hououji aren’t from Cephiro. While on a school field trip to the Tokyo Tower, the three girls’ minds are on anything but different worlds filled with magic and wonder. That is, until Princess Emeraude, the Pillar of Cephiro, cries out for the Magic Knights to save her world–and that just happens to be those three!
