• ... that the film poster for Looking for Magical Doremi appeared in an episode of Healin' Good Pretty Cure to promote the film? Source: Oricon (link): "第16話に登場したポスターには、おジャ魔女メンバーのどれみ、はづき、あいこ、おんぷ、ももこと、『魔女見習いをさがして』のソラ、ミレ、レイカの計8人が描かれていた。[The poster in episode 16 contains the 8 characters that consist of Ojamajo members Doremi, Hazuki, Aiko, Onpu, and Momoko, as well as Sora, Mire, and Reika from Looking for Magical Doremi]."
  • ALT1:... that the film Looking for Magical Doremi depicts real-life locations of where Ojamajo Doremi is based? Source: Anime News Network (link): "They go on trips together across Japan, doubling down on some serious anime tourism by visiting a ton of different places seen in the various seasons of Magical DoReMi."
  • ALT2:... the dandelions seen in Looking for Magical Doremi was a reference to the production staff's previous work, Yume no Crayon Oukoku? Source: Natalie (link): "観客からのQ&Aコーナーでは、「どれみ」と「魔女見習い」に共通する「タンポポの綿毛」というモチーフについて質問が。すると佐藤監督は「これは『夢のクレヨン王国』までさかのぼる話なんですが、『クレヨン王国』は綿毛がふわっと飛んでいく場面で終わるんです。[In the Q & A corner from the audience, there was a question about the "dandelion fluff" commonly seen in [Ojamajo] Doremi and Looking for Magical Doremi, to which director [Junichi] Sato said, "This goes all the way back to Yume no Crayon Oukoku, where Yume no Crayon Oukoku ended with a scene were a fluff flutters and flies [to the sky]."]."

• I have decided not to review this nomination formally, but I have a couple of comments. 1. Can a flesh-and-blood actor "star" in an anime? 2. I think ALT1 is the most interesting, but it doesn't look grammatically correct to me ("Locations where the anime is based on"). --Moscow Connection (talk) 14:48, 9 January 2021 (UTC)

• @Moscow Connection: For your first point, yes, they can -- all three women in the film have starring roles. Other anime that has starred "flesh-and-blood actors" include Josee, the Tiger and the Fish, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time, and Michiko and Hatchin. Also, lately, anime has starred stage actors due to the popularity of 2.5D musicals, such as Shohei Hashimoto, Shogo Sakamoto, Asami Tano, etc. ALT1 should say "locations of where the anime is based." lullabying (talk) 21:02, 9 January 2021 (UTC)

• The article is long enough and new enough. I assume good faith on the references that I cannot read. A QPQ has been completed. I prefer the original hook as the most interesting - it is also directly cited. SL93 (talk) 00:41, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

Hey, I'm going to be reviewing this article. Expect comments later in the week. Some Dude From North Carolina^{wanna talk?} 22:08, 21 January 2021 (UTC)

Basic stuff and comments

• "Release and marketing" should be an actual section, not a subsection.
• "Soundtrack" should become a section titled "Music" and should also be moved under production.
• Move the box office information from "Reception" to "Release and marketing".
• "Accolades" should be a subsection under reception, and since it's only one award, it should be in prose rather than a table.
  •  Done lullabying (talk) 03:28, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

• Archive all sources (you can use this to help.)
• Infobox, lead, and plot sections look good.
• Is there a reason only some characters have references, and others don't?
• Couldn't find any problems with production or release and marketing.
• In reception, Anime News Network and Natalie should not be in italics.
  •  Done Added references for other cast members. Link to bot doesn't work. Can you explain why Anime News Network and Natalie shouldn't be italicized? They're names of publications. lullabying (talk) 17:54, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

• @Lullabying: Anime News Network and Natalie shouldn't be italicized because they're publishers and as they're own Wiki-articles aren't italicized either. Additionally, references still need to be archived (this can also be done manually with this or this). Some Dude From North Carolina^{wanna talk?} 18:14, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
