LAST TIME ON MAHOU WANDO......!
The Mahou Wando Afterstory officially concluded!! Yahoo!
[ONE]
We were introduced to our heroes' thriving lives post time-skip and Afterstory! It's time for the Solar System Picnic~!
[TWO]
Everyone at the picnic was dressed as their best, and boy did they! But something else was flying towards the realm...!
[THREE]
As the stars fall from above, something crashes and makes the forest OVERGROW!
[FOUR]
And just when you think it couldn't get any crazier, new foes start a POACHING party! Stealing KaiLong!
[FIVE]
But we won't let them have their way! Lets battle!
[EVENT]
But when the storm cleared, it seems that things changed in an unexpected way...!
[FINAL]
[Theme Song]
♫ Mi-kal and Poppy tell you the news~
put on their shoes~ and fly straight to you~!
We give the news to you everyday~!
So turn on your teles
and what do you say~?
POP POP POP POP POooOOoPPY~!
YEAH!!! ♫
"It's the Poppy Program."
 | HIyA...! POPPIES!!! |
 | That sure was something wasn't it~? Sooooome... star shower...~! Right? |
 | [Mikal is completely turned in his seat, GLARING towards the back of their news stand. There was definitely a Wondersnatch LINGERING in the background, eyeing his rainbow chords.] |
| You want a piece of me, you little shit? Make a move. I'll win. |
| Mikal? |
| Make a move. I'll win. |
 | MIKAL. |
 | WHAT? [He looks to the camera] Oh. Yeah, that starfall really fell apart didn't it. HAR HAR-- [he looks back again and the Wondersnatch was gone.] |
| DAMMIT. |
 | These new Creachers are driving me INSANE! |
 | Aaaaaaand speaking of Creachers!!! It looks like Creacher Spring came and went in a flash! |
 | We got a lot of relieving and EXCITING headlines for you folks today! So lets get right into the neeeeews~! |
| Where did it go...?! |
[UNIVERSAL SERVICES ALERT!! EXPONETIAL FOREST GROWTH HAS SUBSIDED! ]
THE MAINLAND'S TERRAIN HAS RECOVERED!
BUT LIL'NIGHTSOVANIA WAS CURRENTLY IN SHAMBLES...
| Universal services has reported the obvious-- the realm terrain has flickered back to normal! |
 | Yup. The trees basically walked back to where they belong, and good riddens. I was not ready to start living in a treehouse. |
 | Thankfully, no damage was done to any structures.. IT SEEMS? It looks like the forest kind of just grew around or fused with the present structures of the realm. So, if you see any new damages to your homes or businesses- someone probably did that! |
| If you're missing money from your cash registers, it was definitely the trees' fault though. HAR HAR. |
| Little Nightsovania however... iiiiiss...a different story. |
| Due to Little Nightsovania being in direct merging with the Deep Hallowed Woods, dangerous Creachers rampaged and left MANY things in pieces. Universal Services has advised all Nightsovanian residents to remain on the mainland until the coast is confirmed clear. |
| It should only be a week! They apologize for the inconvenience! |
By April 7th, Lil'Nightsovania will be open again!

| And now! An interview from the GREAT DRAGON KAILONG~! After discovering that poaching is on the up and up, we'll get his thoughts! Secrets, and cool tips~! |
| Let's hear it for the... GREAT! DRAGON! |
 | HI!!! |
| ... |
| uhhhh? |
| I said: Great Dragon KaiLong. Not Special Star Boy Hargrooves. |
 | Haha... yeah I know...! Sorry! Chief Kailong will be out for a minute!! |
| Okay...? We have 60 seconds but we're LIVE right now. (We have a time slot you know.) |
| Not a literal minute! I mean-- he can't- come to the phone right now- |
| Why? Cause of his skin care routine? Jealous. |
| His what? I mean-- sure! He just isn't feeling well and won't be able to do any interviews or speeches for a while! |
| Huh..? Is he finally retiring? What's the scoop! |
| No! I mean-- he's not supposed to. I don't think ...he's feeling well. |
| If I had a skin-care routine as amazing as his I'd pass out after it too~! HAR HAR! |
| But if he's not going to answer for the things happening to this realm right now. Who will? |
| Yeah, whose the guardian instead then? Who leads Mahou Wando? |
| HahaH! ...GOOD QUESTION. We will discuss. That. SOON! |
| I have to go now bye...! |
| Rude~ But- a fun twist on that status quo~! |
| Isn't that a juicy bit of news? IS Chief KaiLong retiring for good!? Vote now on MaWaLyfe~! |
[OPERATION: CREACHER REHABILITATION]
| Despite the forest EXPLODING, our Creacher researchers have reported: spring has yielded a very exciting new bunch of Creachers! |
| Yup. 8 new abominations were discovered. Researchers are still confirming if they're actually Creachers or just shadowy clothes blowing off tree branches. |
| But, we do have some unfortunate news to report. So, if your sensitive about your familiars- now's your time to change the channel. |
 | YEP! Creacher Poaching is alive and well! |
 | That's right. Criminal poachers jumped at the opportunity to grab as many Creachers as they could and declared war against all of us with them! They even tried to poach the GREAT DRAGON! |
| All creachers who were confirmed to be in their hands at the battle were wrangled and saved! Whether they found new homes or not, Universal Services request that MAHOU PATROL AND CIVILIANS be vigilant and note ANY signs of poacher activity! |
 | Here's Poppys helpful tips on how to catch a poacher~! ;9 |
[POPPY PROGRAM: HOW TO SPOT A CREACHER POACHER]
| 1. WAY TOO INTO CREACHERS. 2. Weird Smell! 3. Have a getaway car prepared. 4. Really like money! 5. Talk too much about rare finds! 6. Way too relaxed! Probably from the financial security. 7. From Lil'Nightsovania. |
[IS THERE A CREACHER POACHER IN YOUR AREA?]
| Shading the Creacher fan clubs? HAR HAR HAR. |
 | No! These are bonfied tips! |
 | And if they don't work, oh well, but if they do... you saved a life! |
AND SPEAKING OF SAVING....!
| Creacher Researchers were asked to give a formal statement on the current STATUS of the Creachers taken back from the SnipeSights and volunteered for medical examination! |
| Researchers have reported that ALL Creachers obtained have been inflicted with amnesia! They seem to be relatively out of touch if not lost! Fortunately, not all of them seemed to have lost their memories wholesale, but a good bunch did! |
| Enchanted Creachers have been unable to give testimony because they ...do not remember anything. Or at least, remember very little of their lives before the capture. |
| So, please take care of your new Creachers! A lot of them are kind of off their game because-- what else do you do when your memories are gone? |
| (Don't answer that, Mikal.) |
[FINAL WORDS?]
| Annnnd! That's the show. |
| PHEW! I'm just GLAD the realm is back to normal! Almost. It's been a while since something this exciting has happened-- but Poppy wants to go to dreamland now and never see a tree again~! |
| Crime statistics have gone up over the last 4-5 years too. This realm really is ever-changing. |
| For better or worse~! |
| Better. |
| Mkaaaayyyyyy. Well~! Spring is finally here! So lets have some fun~! |
| This has been Mikal~ |
| And I'm your Poppy! See you next time! |
