Super Doll★Licca-chan (スーパードール★リカちゃん Sūpā Dōru Rika-chan?) is TV anime series which ran on TV Tokyo from 1998—1999. Kodansha also serialized a manga based on the anime series in its monthly manga magazine Nakayoshi. The story follows an ordinary elementary school girl named Licca Kayama (香山リカ Kayama Rika) [1] [2] and the strange circumstances surrounding her origins, as well as the origins of her protector, Doll Licca.
The series is an original story spin-off inspired by the long-selling and popular Takara doll series "Licca-chan" (created by Miyako Maki, wife of Leiji Matsumoto), designed to expand the regular dress-up doll series into a line of action figures. However, the series was only a mild success, and ended soon after it began.
