The next generaton Pretty Series anime/arcade game has been announced!
In association with the 10th Anniversary, a new title Watcha PriMagi will begin airing in October 2021, accompanied by a new arcade game.
I’m still confirming a few details so this post may be edited, but for now I’ve quickly compiled all the information presented so far on Twitter, YouTube and the official site below:
Watcha PriMagi is themed around dancing, singing, fashion, and also magic! It’s a story about a sparkling, magical stage called “PriMagi” with Junichi Sato as cheif director. It’s being written by Fumi Tsubota and directed by Kosuke Kobayashi who has been involved with the series for ten years.
The main character of the Watcha PriMagi anime, Matsuri Hibino, will be voiced by Chinatsu Hirose. The witch [lit: magic user] Myamu will be voiced by Riko Koike.
The website has been launched here which includes a bit more info on the characters: https://www.tv-tokyo.co.jp/anime/primagi/
Matsuri Hibino is a 1st year student in junior high who loves festivals and PriMagi! (Her name literally means “festival”.) When she turns “maji (magi?)” she can unleash a great power! (I think this is a pun as “maji” means “serious”, but also sounds like “magic” in English.)
Myamu is a witch from the magical world. She’s an energetic troublemaker!?
Story Entertainment including singing, dance, and fashion. They call it “PriMagi”! There was a secret in that stage glittering like magic. That’s right, it was actually real magic!
You can watch an introduction video here: https://youtu.be/hmo9xniAZM0
The first two minutes is composed of unrelated idols from various groups talking about how they wouldn’t have debuted if it wasn’t for Pretty Series. The actual introduction to PriMagi begins at the 3-minute mark and gameplay can be seen at the 4-minute mark. The anime preview can be seen at the 6-minute mark.
PriTickets are now called “Magic Cards” and the tagline is “Follow your dreams and become ‘maji/magi’ (serious?)!” The Magic Cards appear to be clear plastic (they referred to them as “stained-glass”) but they may be printable as the video mentions making “your own unique cards” and there is a slot at the bottom of the machine for card output. The QR codes are scanned at the bottom of the screen. Pressing the cards against the screen does something in the game as well. The official binder for the cards is called a “Coord Book” and looks like a spell book. You’ll get some kind of bonus items if you’ve played PriChan before, but they didn’t say anything about being able to transfer characters.
Compared with PriPara/PriChan the arcade cabinet has larger speakers, only two buttons, and the main screen is a touch screen!? At first I thought they just screwed a new panel on the front of the classic machines, but when the machine is shown from the side in the video it looks a lot deeper than I remember the classic machines being, so maybe not?
The anime preview in the video mentions that Matsuri is scouted by Myamu to become a PriMagi idol. The silhouettes of several rival characters are also shown.
As for that 10th Anniversary audition, apparently it’s still ongoing. The winner will appear in PriMagi, but their character has not been announced yet. (Chinatsu Hirose and Riko Koike are fairly new talents, but they have some experience. The audition winner will debut for the first time in PriMagi)

primagi location test
i’ve spent an unhealthy amount of time researching primagi stuff based the recent location tests that have started for a few weeks now. people who played it where not allowed to take pictures or share much information but where allowed to post pictures of the cards. still though it’s more than enough to gather significant information. more bellow the cut
starting off to make things more clear here is this poster showing off the three coords available at the location test. i will be referring back to this later.
so starting off lets look at these coords in card form
as a side note the cards with the dresser with wings is the mycara card. it would have your character posing in the full release but due to not wanting to show off character parts it’s censored out (boooo). form the sound of it these mycara cards will only be valid for the duration of the test.
now from what we can gather form the cards themselves
from left to right it’s the predominate color of the coord, the type of the specific coord piece and then the brand. back to the poster the coord on the right is from a brand called vivid star while the other two are from a brand called lovely melody. if i recalled these two names where trademarked the same time as primagi.
now for the part i find really interesting; the types. if you look closely not only is there type variation within brands but also within coords themselves. in just these 3 coords i was able to find 9 distinct types. those where:
star
jewel
lovely
cute
cool
basic and pop
and these two that i can’t find clear enough photos to read.
outside of this we have official photos of the cards that matsuri wore in the reveal trailer.
if you look closely there all from the brand lovely melody and have that one type that i couldn’t figure out. moving on to the offcial render of the card.
the official render removes the texts underneath the unknown type the rarity and the amount of points it’s worth.(booo again) but it dose give us a better look at the brand logo as well as the fact that the candy symbol is replaced with a feather pen. it dosen’t mention the color but looking back so did the ones in the previous photo. this makes me think we have something akin to the glitter system in aistars but thats just speculation.
#primagi#wachha primagi#watcha primagi#i'm much more excited for this then i have any right to be#especially since i don't live in japan#won't stop me lol

PriMagi Staff
Series Composition (writing): Fumi Tsubota
Director: Kousuke Kobayashi
Executive Director: Jun'ichi Sato
Notable about writer Fumi Tsubota, aside from having written half of Pretty Rhythm, is she wrote episode 25 of KiraPre, and episode 19 of HugPre, so.
Take from that what you will. 🏳️🌈

Pretty Series 10th Anniversary!
I watched the celebration video on Youtube. At first it had some messages from Japanese idols. They talked about how they grew up watching Pretty Series and it taught them so much about life & being an idol.
Then there were some parts of PriMadonna song and they continued by showing their new series: Watcha Primagi!
Watcha Primagi is about collecting magical cards and going on magic stage (live). Here are the visuals I got from screenshots:
This is the new arcade machine. It's still a rhythm game, but item is different. Instead of Priticket or Prism Stone, you put "magic cards" on screen and capture your coord.
Here are the characters:
Her name seems to be Matsuri Hibino and she's a middle school student. She adores fashion, music, dance and Primagi stage.
This girl is called Myam, she scouts Matsuri to be on Primagi stage. She is an energegic witch.
I really like this idea, but since I watch so many idol / magical girl series I noticed it's very similar to some of them.
For example, you put the magic cards inside this book. Which reminds me of Cardcaptor Sakura series. The idea of "capturing coords inside magic cards" sounds identical too.
As for visuals I really like how vibrant and dynamic they look, but it looks like a copy of Pure Palette duo of Aikatsu Friends!
See what I mean? Theme colors and designs are really similar. I wish they could get more original instead of using similar designs or concepts.
But I still love it and will watch it for sure! Sounds like it will air on October :)

Is it just me, or do none of the Primaji coords really catch your eye in the same way pripara/chan’s did? Like, idk if it’s just me being internally salty about the change in style, but all of the coords seem to give off a more mature vibe, rather than the more sparkly vibe that it used to
#lol idk what I’m saying#i guess i just don’t like any of the new coords yet#waccha primagi#watcha primaji#primaji#oh except matsuri’s primaji uniform#that one’s pretty cool#so’s myamu & hina’s character coords#and maybe Remon/Lemon and Auru/Owl’s#but just barely

Aren’t the names a bit different? Like Miruki = Milky, and Auru = Owl?
five more new Waccha Primagi characters, just revealed!
Sumeragi Amane (cv. Shouji Umeka): A third-year JHS student who is well-loved by underclassmen! Usually easygoing, but changes completely in Primagi?!
Patano (cv. Kohara Konomi): Amane’s magician partner! A country bumpkin who admires the stylish Amane.
Amauri Miruki (cv. Sagara Mayu): A third-year JHS student who puts on a cute act! Her dream is to create a Miruki Cute Museum!
Hanitan (cv. Ogura Yui): Miruki’s magician partner! The world hidden inside the zipper is a secret.
Omega Auru (cv. TBD in primagi audition): A girl who knows a lot about mechanics [or possibly mecha? not sure, but probably the other]. Her identity is a secret, and it’s even unknown if she’s a Primagi Star or not.
source for the profiles is here!

PriMagi gameplay video. The cards are gorgeous! And it seems they really do print from the machine. From Prism Stones to printable, snappable PriTickets to KiraTickets to this. Pretty Series really puts a lot of focus on innovating their arcade collectables to make them seem like magic.

Primagi Songs
A True Dream Story: This one is the MyChara song and I was impressed by the vocals. I really like the voice and the calm, 90s???( Cardcaptor Sakura) vibe the song has. Hope it stays in the arcade noah fence
My Miracle Stage: The Matsuri/Myamu song. It's super catchy and energetic. I really want them to use it in episode one. It really captures the energy of a new series. I thought I'd dislike Myamu's singing but that vocal filter is in check. She sound good.
Magi Waccha Parade: Not what I was expecting at all. It's very unique imo. Also??? Matsuri sounds really good here. It was hard to guess what she'd sing like but I'm very impressed. I hope it's not arcade exclusive. She's clearly a talented singer so they better use her well. Mao and Matsuri are such good main singers.
Extra thoughts: PLEASE let the anime keep the 'Waccha Waccha!" cheers the audience does before a song starts. I wish I could play the arcade so bad
