Magical DoReMi [Episode 20] A Rival Appears! The Magical Shop’s Big Pinch!!

4Kids Entertainment began working on a licensing contract with Toei Animation with plans of increasing the female television demographic for their Saturday morning block, but the deal was not sealed until 2004. Although initially planned for debut in November 2005, the show appeared in the United States on 4Kids TV with a preview episode on August 13, 2005. Episodes began regularly airing on September 10, 2005; they aired 50 episodes by March 11, 2006. After that, the show was in reruns until August 19, 2006. Magical DoReMi continued its run on November 13, 2007, exclusively on the network's web site and released its last episode on May 2, 2008. The first 50 episodes were grouped into one season, while the remaining episodes were grouped as "season 2" on 4Kids TV's website.

The English version by 4Kids Entertainment was heavily edited and localized for Western audiences, and carried a TV-Y E/I rating.
