Media Factory has put up some details about its 2005 anime "Okusama
wa Mahou Shoujo", which translates as "Madam is a Magical Girl", or
maybe "My Wife is a Magical Girl".
http://www.mediafactory.co.jp/news.html
Original story: J.C.Staff, Hiroshi NISHIKIORI, Kazuhiko IKEGUCHI ("Aika",
"Birdy the Mighty", "Cardcaptor Sakura" Movies, "GadGuard", "Jubei-chan",
"Cowboy Bebop", "Gasaraki", ...)
Director: Hiroshi NISHIKIORI ("GadGuard", "Azumanga Daioh", "Angelic Layer",
"Melody of Oblivion", "Tenshi ni Narumon")
Character designer: Shinya HASEGAWA ("Melody of Oblivion", "Ikki Tousen",
"Utena")
Starring: Kikuko INOUE (Belldandy, Kasumi Tendo, many others.)
Animation production: J.C.Staff, Amber Film Works.
Production: Media Factory.
Further, a comic serialization of the story will start in "Dengeki Comic Gao"
on 27 December 2004.
Finally, "Moon Phase" reports this will be a 13-ep series, and the producer
will be Yuji MATSUKURA ("Ai Yori Aoshi ~Enishi~", "Azumanga Daioh", "Maburaho",
"Mahoraba", "R.O.D. the TV", "Someday's Dreamers")

The personnel seem very promising. And who hasn't wanted to see Belldandy
as a magical girl? Incidentally, I'm rather surprised that the same person
did the character designs for "Ikki Tousen" (*) and "Utena".
