This was just a Japanese "I Dream of Jeannie" ripoff.
It was actually Bewitched mixed with Doraemon
A masterpiece of its genre and one of the top 5 most influential anime in history.>>282390090Meds.
>>282390090That's a retarded take as it has almost nothing in common with it. The entire premise is different.
>>282390090Every single fictional story in existance is a ripoff of The Epic of Gilgamesh.
>>282390282Wrong.
>>282390367
>>282390195The premise is kinda similar if you're extremely reductive about it, like reddit theory crafting retarded levels. There are probably some episodes between the two that share narrative beats considering how many they made.
>>282390496Scarlet!!!
>>282390153yeah i don't think the japs cared at all about jeannie, but they fucking loved bewitched
>>282391952Did anybody outside of West Germany care about Jeannie?
it started out as a parody of Tonde Couple, though they're both inspired by western romcom sitcoms
>>282391952
>>282391985Charmed referenced it including a very similar looking bottle.
>>282391952>>282391985The co-creator of Tenchi Muyo claims he was inspired a bit by Jeannie while creating Ryoko.
>>282390195>>282390282>>282390574Why do weebs refuse to admit how much Japanese pop culture and anime owe to western pop culture, but will gladly insist Inception ripped off Paprika (they have nothing in common).
>>282390090It's clearly a Sátántangó mixed with Freddy Got Fingered
