Please find an episode of Domoto Kyodai airred on July 25, 2004. She appeared as a guest and you will learn a great deal about her, including:
- when her "magic" to escape from explosion on a boat failed, she got a serious injury and had to "refill" most of her blood (and she claims to have a different personality ever since);
- she has a big a$$ mansion in Japan with a garden where she raises wild animals and dinosaur robots;
- she built a real-size spaceship in her house to have afternoon teatime;
- one day, she wanted to take a vacation, so she went to the SPACE with help from the Russian government and a few million bucks and took a picture of the earth with her cannon digital camera (remember this is back in 2003-04 before much effort to commercialize space trip); and
- among the gifts she's received over the years include a ring with an eyeball size of dimond, oil field somewhere in middle east (from which she's still collecting $$$), yachts, buildings and an island.

Tee hee. I have an action figure of her from when I was a kid :)

I thought she was so cool back then :)

Her real name is Mariko Itakura and she had a cartoon and mattel doll named after her.
