Magical Girl
Guitar Vader Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee's a magical girl
Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee's a magical girl
Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee's a magical girl
Repeated four times.
The lyrics to Guitar Vader's song "Magical Girl" are actually quite simple and repetitive, consisting mainly of the phrase "She's a magical girl" repeated four times with an elongated "she" in each instance. However, this repetition lends itself to a hypnotic effect that reinforces the sense of wonder and awe that typically accompanies the appearance of a magical girl character in anime or manga. For those unfamiliar with the concept, a magical girl is a subgenre of Japanese fantasy and anime that typically revolves around young girls who possess magical powers and use them to fight evil forces. The magical girl character is often depicted with cute or feminine qualities, giving the impression of a kind of "superhero princess."
Since there are no further lyrics to the song, it's unclear whether the repetition of the phrase "She's a magical girl" is intended to be ironic or not. It's possible that Guitar Vader is playing with the idea of the magical girl trope, pointing out its absurdity, or simply celebrating it without commentary. Either way, the song does capture the essence of the genre by emphasizing the wonder and excitement that magical girls evoke. And despite the simplicity of the lyrics, the catchy melody and upbeat tempo make it a fun and enjoyable tune to listen and dance to.
