What happens

Sally the Witch (Japanese: 魔法使いサリー, Hepburn: Mahōtsukai Sarī), originally titled Sunny the Witch (魔法使いサニー, Mahōtsukai Sanī), is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Mitsuteru Yokoyama. It was serialized in Shueisha's monthly Ribon magazine from July 1966 to October 1967. Its 1966 anime adaptation was one of the most popular magical girl series of what would eventually become a genre in Japan. Due to its characteristics, it may be considered the first shōjo anime as well; while titles such as Himitsu no Akko-chan predate Sally in manga form, the Sally anime predates Himitsu no Akko-chan's, which came out in 1969.
