Majokko Mirakurun

Concept / Plot
Majokko Mirakurun is a magical girl anime that only exists inside the "YuruYuri" real anime. Her objective in the series is to defeat the evil "Team Giga Giga" (composed of Rivalun, an evil magical girl, and Ganbo, a spherical robot with sunglasses) and restore the peace of the world. When not transformed, Mirakurun is a school student called Kurumi. She is also oblivious to the fact that Rivalun is her best friend Raika when not transformed.

The "kawaii" facade of Mirakurun is broken in Season 2 Episode 1 (of YuruYuri, not Mirakurun) when Mirakurun uses her finishing move, "Mirakurun Hammer" on Ganbo, causing his "skull" to cave in and him collapsing in a pool of blood.

Mirakurun appears to have died whist fighting Rivalun on the moon, and immediately prior to this the two apparently make up.

Appearance in the YuruYuri anime
Kyoko Toshino draws doujin works about Majokko Mirakurun and sometimes forces Chinatsu (she greatly resembles to the transformed Mirakurun) to cosplay as her.

Mirakurun strongly reflects Kyoko's personality, being highly egocentric and taking advantage of her friends.

Although Kyoko adores the anime, Chinatsu recognises it for its weak tongue-in-cheek satirism of the Mahou Shoujo genre.
