El Mago de Oz
El Mago de Oz (オズの魔法使い Ozu no Mahōtsukai?) es una película de anime coproducida entre Japón y Estados Unidos dirigida por Fumihiko Takayama a partir de un guion de Yoshimitsu Banno y Akira Miyazaki, que está basada en la novela de 1900 escrita por L. Frank Baum. Está producida por Yoshimitsu Banno y Katsumi Ueno para Toho. Aunque esta película no tiene ninguna relación con la serie anime de 1986 que produjo Panmedia, más allá de estar basada en el mismo libro, el hecho de que la película se estrenara en Japón el mismo año que la serie se emitió por primera vez (y el hecho de que ambas se publicaron también en Estados Unidos y Canadá) hace que los dos trabajos suelan confundirse.
