At first I didn't plan to draw Mulan because she didn't give me magical girl vibes, but then I remembered characters like Buttercup from The Powerpuff Girls, or Sakura Kyoko from Madoka Magica, and I thought that tough girls can be magical girls too.

She wouldn't use a false name to hide her identity, and unlike other magical girls, she has a more animalistic transformation, with a dragon's tail and horns. She also has many abilities: she can breathe fire, fight with a sword and a fan, and uses martial arts.
