Miracle Girls
Miracle Girls (Japanese: ミラクル★ガールズ, Hepburn: Mirakuru Gāruzu) is a Japanese manga written and illustrated by Nami Akimoto, with the first volume being released on July 6, 1991. It was Akimoto's third work, and her longest running. It was a commercial hit and would see the creation of 12 more volumes. The manga is about two twins with opposite interests and talents, the athletic tomboy Tomomi and the intellectual girly girl Mikage, who have combined ESP abilities (telepathy and teleportation) when they link their pinky fingers together. Their boyfriends Hideaki and Yuuya feature prominently, as well as their teacher Shinichirou, a paranormal investigator obsessed with the twins' psychic powers.
It falls under the Magical girl genre, and has some comedic elements. It was adapted into an anime series by Japan Taps in 1993, starting in January and finishing in December of that year. Tokyopop licensed the manga for English release in North America in the year 2000.
Manga Book 1:
Tomomi and Mikage Matsunaga are identical twins with special powers. Together, they are able to teleport and communicate telepathically. The athletically challenged Mikage begs Tomomi to switch identities with her for her school's sports day track meet, where she and Tomomi are teamed with Mikage's arch enemy Yuya Noda, in the relay race. Tomomi, however, finds herself drawn to Yuya. Tomomi's success in the relay causes the captain of the track team, Hideaki Kurashige, to try to recruit Mikage. So, once again, the sisters switch identities. However, the science teacher, Shinichiro Kageura, finds out about their psychic powers, and begins to stalk Tomomi. Sensing that Mikage (who was really Tomomi) has been behaving strangely, Yuya visits them at home.
Anime Episode 1:
Tomomi and Mikage are twin high school girls with powers hidden from everyone but themselves and their boyfriends: They can communicate with each other telepathically, and if they hold hands, they can teleport. Tomomi, the elder twin, is a tomboy with a knack for sports, and Mikage, the younger twin, is a brilliant academic and is in the chemistry club. One day, they receive big news: Mikage's boyfriend, Kurashige, is transferring to England to further his education; in addition, the ESP fanatic Kageura, the chemistry teacher, is getting married. Though she is initially heartbroken, Mikage recovers and wishes Kurashige well. At Kageura's wedding reception, Kurashige gives her a pocketwatch as a going-away gift. Meanwhile, four flowers, two in England outside of a castle and two in Japan outside of the twins' house, suddenly begin to shine and bloom.
Original Japanese names/Names in Tokyopop's translation
During its original Japanese run, the manga was split in two main parts. The first part is what the anime takes from, but the manga continued on after the anime had finished. This makes the anime an unfinished adaptation of the series it is based upon.
