Monkey Magic, Op to the original TV dorama,
西遊記 (Saiyuuki). Lucky Star #8 ED.
Watch it and you'll even hear the narration Konata talked about. It did take a looooooong time before you get to the 70's funky English theme song. Surprisingly it wasn't in Engrish...

Natsume Masako died in 85.. she was a pretty popular idol who made great stride in becoming a respected actress. It's not easy making that transition but her life was cut short.
