    This is a general thread to discuss different magical girl anime’s from old to new and to show magical girl love from pictures to discussions and give suggestions to new magical girl shows. Peoples opinion of what makes a girl a “shoujo mahou” are different and that’s okay. I will not allow any bashing but spoliers are fine as long as you label it as a spolier. Sorry for all the rules guys. Anyhow let’s start!

    What’s your favorite magical girl anime?

    Who is your favorite magical girl and why?

    Have fun and discuss!

      I guess I’ll use this topic to talk about one show at a time to make it a little more easier to make conversation.

      First up is a show I think most of us on this forum have seen and if you haven’t it does deserve to be seen.

      Madoka Magica has become extremely popular due to what really lies behind the pretty transformations and sparkly powers. It takes a light hearted stereotype and smashes it to pieces and I’m guess this how being a shoujo mahou would “realistically” be like. I won’t say much on it due to being spoilers for people who haven’t seen this anime yet but I would like to know everyone’s opinion of this show? Overrated and hyped up? Or deserves the place in the anime world that it has for being groundbreaking?

      I have to say I can’t really seem to choose a favorite character because the all have such beautiful development. SPOILER- (even though Mami wasn’t around very long she had a big change in just a few episode) and in a way they all pretty relatable to how people react to certain things differently and how they all seem to have peices of personalitys that we all have in us somewhere.

      So what do you guys have to say about Madoka Magica?

      Madoka and Homura.
      I’m starting it on the 14th.

      As far as my favorite MG series,I like Wedding Peach[/b. I know a lot of people don’t but I got into it after

      Sailor Moon(which I plan on adding more later on)was originally taken off the shelves by Toei.Got hooked

      after the first episode and addicted after volume 1.

      For some reason Momoko/Peach is my favorite character though I like all the girls,especially Yuri/Lily. iloveit1

      I haven’t seen much Sailor Moon but have now read all the manga and it’s my second favorite MG series,with

      as I said before Mercury as my favorite character.

      And currently I am expecting season 1 of Magi Knight Rayearth from Rightstuf.I already have one volume plus

      the manga for season 2.

      Speaking of manga I also have the first and third complied version of the Tokyo Mew Mewmanga.

      Now with all 3 volumes of Puelle Magi Madoka Magica I plan to have a fun time watching it over the next

      couple months after I finish what I have of War on Geminar. mmhmm1

      I love Wedding Peach as well. Found it at my local library years ago and its one of my top favorites and Momoko is also my favorite from Wedding Peach with Daisy as a close second. :)

      Sailor Moon was a huge part of my childhood so its a show that’s very dear to me with Venus as my favorite because of nostalgia I feel whenever I watch Sailor Moon especially a episode focused on Sailor V / Minako.

      As far as Magical Knights Rayearth goes that’s a show I personally couldn’t really get into. I liked it at first but for some reason I really can’t say way just one day I just didn’t really enjoy it anymore. It wasn’t a bad show or anything I just couldn’t get into it anymore. I guess my mind just wasn’t in the right set for it.

      Tokyo Mew Mew I enjoyed a lot. I very much enjoy the transformations and their attacks a lot! I think Mew Ichigo is my favorite though I love Mint and Zakuro as well.

      Have fun with Madoka mitsuki and thanks for sharing your thoughts. Tenchismile

      Great idea for a thread, snow!

      I am definitely a fan of the Magical Girl genre, although I haven’t seen too much of it tbh. My obvious favorite of the bunch is definitely Sailor Moon. It was one of the very first anime I watched as a kid, and it was one of the first I went back and re-watched when I got back into anime. Needless to say, it only became even closer to my heart! Of all the Magical Girl shows I’ve seen, hell of all the anime I’ve seen, it probably had the best chemistry among the main cast of characters. I loved the interactions, often violent and often tender, between all the girls. It really felt like you got to know this group of friends really well by the end of the series, and every episode had at least one really great moment for one or more of them.

      I recently watched Madoka Magica, and I really enjoyed it too! I liked the emphasis on the themes of sacrifice and futility, and especially the fantastic visual feel of the show! The Dada-esque designs of the witches and labyrinths really helped set the creepy tone of the show.

      Thank you! mmhmm1

      Sailor Moon is a show that can hit different people in so many different ways and when a anime can do that and move so many people and stands firm even after 20 + years of fame its certainly wonderful.

      As for Madoka Magica it certainly catches my attention and makes me feel very strongly for the characters and what they have to go through. This is one of the first animes where its very difficult for me to choose a favorite character because I see some traits that I have in myself in each of the girls and a couple of the girls I very much relate to so it’s really hits me deep sometimes emotional. The show has beautiful art and a very symbolic way of showing deep messages and that something that doesn’t happen to often in anime now a days.

      Thanks for your opinion chuck! Magical Girls are one of my favorite topics to discuss so if you guys have a question or want a recommendation don’t be shy just ask!

      I know that Kaleido Star doesn’t really count but it has all the elements of a Magic Girl series plus the director also directed both Sailor Moon and Princess Tutu(which I plan on ordering in January and March respectively).Heck they even have a cute animal mascot in Jonathan the Seal! iloveit1

      Yay Sailor Jupiter! Like I said over in the Sailor Moon thread, Jupiter was my favorite scout back in the day, and she still holds a special place in my heart! She’s tough, she’s sensitive, and she’s tall! :D

      SnowQueen
      Member
      Jupiter was always one of my favorites as well. I always wanted to be like her when I was little. Heck I still want to be like her!
      julia
      Member
      Sailor Jupiter used to be my favorite, too :)

      Some of my other favorite Magical Girls (Sailor Moon is usually a given, right?: P):

      Saint Tail!

      I used to love this manga growing up and would get it from the library ALL the time! (I own all the books myself, now <3 ) A girl who is a magician and goes to a catholic school. Her best friend is a nun in training and when people confess to her on things that were stolen, Saint Tail the magical thief steals them back! Her love interest tries to capture her throughout the series, it’s very cute! 6 volumes with an extra volume of bonus stories. There’s an anime but I haven’t seen it…

      Corrector Yui

      Honestly surprised she’s not more popular, I mean, this magical girl SAVES THE INTERNET! O_O Well, the “Com-net” ;) She is chosen to be the leader of special “Corrector programs” and save the internet from an evil program named Grosser!

      Cardcaptor Sakura

      Don’t really have to explain her much :) I remember really enjoying the movies.

      Also, just because I love the Otaku no Video animation :P

      Corrector Yui was created by the creator of my favorite anime series Silent Mobius Kia Asamiya.From what I read he created it for his daughter.

      And two other titles that need more lovin’ are Fancy Lala and Full Moon. Both are about 10-12

      year old girls who suddenly find a way of making themselves teenagers and become Pop Idols over night.

      With Fancy Lala it’s a magic pen and with Full Moon it’s the help of a couple of wacky but kind

      shinigamis.

      Both are worth the watch.Plus Full Moon has some really great singing. soawesome1

      Now AFAIG: I do have my Sailor Jupiter plushie and if I knew how to post a pic I would.While she isn’t my #1

      favorite(that would be MERCURY!)I agree she’s still soawesome1 . As are they all.

      It’s like Wedding Peach in that regard,it’s hard not to love all of ’em(well maybe except that annoying

      Chibiusa).

      julia
      Member
      I’m pretty sure there’s a Yui comic illustrated by Asamiya too, but I’ve never read it! I’m not sure if it was ever translated. I wonder how much it differs from this version?

      HOW COULD I FORGET ABOUT FULL MOON, I *really* need to finish that! I was reading the manga (can you tell I read more manga than watch anime? XD) but I was really liking it. Arina Tanemura’s art is so amazing. So detailed and beautiful! She did another magical girl manga called Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne which I have also yet to finish but what I read was cute;;;

      SnowQueen
      Member
      Saint Tail was one of my favorites growing up! I still remember the theme very well! It was such a cute show. I plan on re-watching it soon!

      I really need to give Full Moon another try. I honestly didn’t like it to much though I never really gave it a fair chance.

      Now I have new shows to watch! Thanks guys!

      Well I have to say today’s episodes gave me mixed feelings personally but over all I enjoyed seeing Mako-chan and her being adorable and badass at the same time. I personally like her speech the best the way she pounds her fist as she talks just makes it all the more cool. :)

      What did you guys think after the three week wait? Worth it?

      I largely agree with you, Snow. I haven’t altogether liked SM: Crystal so far, but I enjoyed this episode more than the previous ones. Mako-chan kicking huge amounts of ass certainly made for a satisfying conclusion, and I thought the pacing and animation also improved noticeably this episode. I’m still reserving final judgement for when the whole gang is assembled, but I think today’s ep was a step in the right direction! Now it’s onward to Minako! :D

      SnowQueen

      I can’t wait for Minako! Its going to be at least another month though since the next episode seems to be about Tuxedo Mask. tuxedodouche

      I love the image you have of all the girls Snow.Where’d you find it?

      I hope they do Minako’s appearance in Crystal like in the manga which was very cool. soawesome1

      It’s only later that the rest of the Senshis learn how much of a ditz she is! 😆

      I’m still on the fence as to wheter I should get just Crystal or both it and the original.

      Anywho,since I won’t be doing that until March I have time to make up my mind.As to other MG series,I will

      be starting Madoka this Sunday.

      I did some looking up at the Puella Magi Madoka Magica to check out what seiyuus were in it.

      Nonaka Ai gets extra points for having a pic strumming a uke! soawesome1

      Though seriously her character doesn’t show up until episode 4 or 5 from what I read.But I will wait for awhile

      before I make any announcement on my Favorite Character. mmhmm1

      SnowQueen
      Member
      I found that picture on Pinterest mitsuki. I really like it as well!

      And yes that’s one of the things I enjoy about Minako is that she seems so collected and mature and then suddenly she’s a boy crazy ditz. Lol

      And I’m assuming your talking about Kyouko Sakura. Shes on of the last to show up but still gets plenty of screen time don’t worry. ^^ I really enjoy her character and I really ant to say more but SPOILER SPOILER. Lol I personally find it very hard to choose a favorite because I really enjoy them all so it always switches around so I’m quite curious as to her your verdict!

      Arina Tanemuraaa~

      I love episode 5 of Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon aka The Live Action Series because it does such a great job of

      showing Ami’s personality without making fun of her.It shows just how by the book she literally is(she buys a book

      on how to make friends and tries to follow it to the t).

      Yes,I will keep you up to date on my thoughts of Madoka.Who knows which will be my favorite character when all is said and done.I mentioned Nonaka Ai because I really loved that pic of her with the uke. iloveit1 iloveit1

      She also played Shima in Stellvia and one of the fairies in Bottle Fairy so this is the third title that

      she’s in that I have.

      Anyone else ever visit the website Moonsticks? It’s a Sailor Moon fancomic site.The owner does her own

      Sailor Moon comic strips and they’re all pretty hysterical. iloveit1

      Also I keep forgetting to mention Cutie Honey, unless I have,but seeing as it was the prototype of the

      Fighter Magical Girl of which SM is the most familiar,it should get a shout out here.

      Really the only difference is that Cutie Honey was targeted more to a male audience while the average

      MG show is targeted to a female one.

      2 days to Madoka.

      btw:If the Witches are really what the Magic Girls become then at some point in time there must not have been any

      Witches so therefore is it ever explained WHY the first Magic Girls were created if there were no Witches for them

      to fight since at some point in time They were destined to become the First Witches that the next Magical

      Girls would fight before they themselves turned into Witches?

      Sorry Mitsuki I’m not going to say anything about Madoka. It will ruin the experience so you’ll just have to watch. ;)

      I enjoy Cutie Honey~! I’ve only seen Re:Cutie Honey and a little bit of the live action. I plan to watch the others soon though. I’ve seen clips of the other series here and there so I know the basic story. I also read on Wiki she is the first female heroine in a shounen.

      Where’s that from? It reminds me of Magic Knight Rayearth.

      And don’t worry Snow most of that was just me philosophizing. Now as far as it goes I really enjoyed episode 1

      of Madoka,but it’s also a case of me doing too much research beforehand because I have to confess to not being as impartial as I ought to have been toward Sayaki.Though she does make my top 5 favorites along with

      Madoka,Homura and Mamori.I was rather surprised I ended up liking Mamori so much.But she ended up on my

      top 3.It now depends on how I like Kyoko wheter or not she’ll stay at #2 or fall to #3.The same with Homura if

      she’ll stay at #1 or fall to #2 once Kyoko appears.

      I’m thinking of re-watching Full Moon when I finish with Madoka as a way to decompress.

      I’m still on the fence as to wheter I should get the original Sailor Moon along with Crystal.

      What does everyone think?

      It’s from Cardcaptor Sakura, by Clamp who also did Rayearth <3

      SnowQueen
      Member
      Yes Julie is right it’s one of the Card’s used in Cardcaptor Sakura.

      And I’m glad you enjoyed the first episode Mitsuki! I’m also glad your taking a liking to all the characters as well. mmhmm1

      Sayaka isn’t my favorite but I still like her of course and her story really tugs at my heartstrings and who doesn’t like Mami? She’s really cute and I love her outfit and her weapon as a magical girl! And Homura I really like because of her development as a character. I say hers is the most interesting to watch so your in for a treat!

      Yeah…I realized I made 2 mistakes there.One in calling Mami Mamori and the other in calling Sayaka Sayaki.

      Well in my defense I do have a lot of anime that Ohara Sayaki appears in,I mean after Inoue Kikoue she’s #2

      with the most anime in my collection.

      And I should have realized that was one of the Clow Cards from CCS. Kiyofacepalm1

      Funny thing Ohara Sayaki plays Layla on Kaleido Star which I will be watching tonight. soawesome1

      My Clamp collection consists of:Cardcaptor Sakura episodes 1-3 fansub;Cardcaptor Sakuravol.2

      Pioneer Uncut;Chobits vol.1-3;xxxHolicvol.1;MAgic Knight Rayearth S 1 also:

      Chobits manga volume 2 and Magic Knight Rayearth manga S 2.

      I need more CCS.Which is why I have it down for February on my list. iloveit1

      SnowQueen
      Member
      It’s okay Mitsuki I know who you were talking about so it’s fine. ^_^

      I haven’t really seen much of Cardcaptor Sakura. The last time I’ve seen I was pretty young but I still remember the basic plot of it. blush1

      I’ve got CCS on my radar for February.Was thinking of just the movie but since the entire series is out I may

      get the first season and then the movie.

      Aside from Sailor Moon the one series that I think of as the holy grail of Magic Girl Shows would be

      Precure(the original).

      SnowQueen
      Member
      I agree! Precure certainly sets the bar pretty high and I personally enjoy it with my favorites being Smile Precure, Yes! Precure 5, and Heartcatch. Also have a soft spot for Suite Precure and Doki Doki but they aren’t my favorite.

      I would list all my favorite girl’s but that would be a LONG list. blush1

      The problem is I don’t even know if Precure is avaible Stateside.This is the sole reason I haven’t added it to my

      List.

      I know what you mean.The more you watch of any type of anime the more favorite characters you are going to amass.

      Yesterday I found a website called The Magic Girl Wikia it has information on all sorts of MG shows from

      Anime to Live Action including not just Japanese but also American shows.Though it was the first time I ever

      thought of either Charmed or Sabrina:The Teenaged Witch as being Magic Girl series. 😆 😆 😆 😆

      Well I guess if you were to stretch the meaning to include everything that has girls with supernatural or magical powers in them then they would certainly be included.Though I think most of us would still limit it to Japanese

      anime and live action.

      Still an interesting site and if you haven’t seen it look it up.

      SnowQueen
      Member
      I’ll have to check it out! ;) I think I’ve come across it a few times but never looked at it in detail. And yes the “Magical Girl” genre people usually associate it with anime only mostly but I would consider something like Sabrina a magical girl. As far as Precure goes it’s all over youtube if you wish to watch it.
      I really should one of these days.

      Actually there’s the live action Melissa Joan Hart Sabrina The Teenage Witch from the ’90s and an older

      cartoon from the late ’60s early ’70s.The cartoon is based more on the Archie comics and has her interacting with the Archie gang.

      SnowQueen
      Member
      I loved the cartoon when I was younger. I don’t think I’ve seen the 90s live action but I’ve seen some episodes of the older live action here and there on different channels. She even has a talking animal to help and guide her so yes I consider her magical girl status. Lol

      I also consider W.I.T.C.H a magical girl series as well.

      Okay girls and guys as well! If you were to become a Mahou Shoujo or Shounen right now what would you look like? What would your magical name be and what type of powers and/or item(s) would you have? What kinda of transformation would you have and what would your purpose be? You can answer one or all these if you wish. You can draw, write whatever you wish to describe your Mahou Shoujo or Shounen. Remember have fun and no bashing!

      But of course! ;)

      I’d look like Will from W.I.T.C.H.‘ older brother though with Ami’ Sailor Mercury’ ‘s personality and

      Scarlet ‘Angel Salvia’ ‘s temperament. iloveit1

      And yeah…I also enjoyed W.I.T.C.H. the comic was actually Italian which is why the European settings.

      Oh..and The Official Magic Girl Wikia has a monthly contest where you can vote for your favorite Magic Girl to

      be added to their Hall of Fame.September’s winner was Mew Zakuro,October contestants include a bunch of Precures along with Homura and Sailor Saturn.

      Nice! I’ll have to take a look see mmhmm1 and I loved the W.I.T.C.H books when I was younger that and the Winx club as well! I haven’t seen either in such a long time T^T
      iloveit1

      I hated it when they moved Season 2 from Monday night on Toon Disney/Disney XD to Saturday morning on

      ABCFamilychannel.The one I had the hardest time liking in the beginning was Cornelia because she came across as being real snooty at the beginning.

      btw Snowqueen nice Sayaka avvie there. soawesome1

      Hey,I was wondering now that I have Puella Magi Madoka Magica are there any other MG series that

      I need to add to my collection?Keep in my mind that I do plan on getting the following:

      Vividread

      Princess Tutu

      Cardcaptor Sakura

      Sailor Moon

      The last two I already have but plan on getting more.Just wondered if there was anything else that I ought to think about. Thanks.

      SnowQueen
      Member
      Thank you Mitsuki! ;3

      As far as other Mahou Shoujo shows go I recommend Mahou no Tenshi Creamy Mami for a older more classic magical girl show and as far as a newer one goes Vividred Operation is decent as long as you don’t go into with a judgmental attitude. It’s a little ecchi but it has beautiful transformations and it has a mecha element that I think you would enjoy. That’s all I can think of now. If I think of something else outta the blue I’ll let ya know.

      I still would love to see them do a Codename:Sailor Vanime that would be fun,especially the female Police

      Inspector General.She was always a riot in the manga:BIG V-Chan fan!!!! 😆 😆

      It’s interesting that in PGSM Sailor V is actually the first Sailor Senshi they show,the first scene is of her

      chasing Tuxedo Mask.

      And yes!Creamy Mami is available!Now if only Precure were out on DVD in the States as well.(I love

      owning anime on DVD… soawesome1 )

      Oh:BTW:Kyoko finally showed up at the less moment on episode 4 of Madoka.Now it’s between her and

      Mami for #2 spot,I already conceded that I’m pretty much a Homura fanboy.

      I also found Puella Magi Kazumi Magica and also Tokyo Mew Mew A La Mode but I ended up getting

      The manga was how I got into Madoka Magica. It’s just very slightly different than the anime but I really like the art style! Even though there are only three manga’s of the original there are a couple of spin off manga’s and Madoka Magica- The Different Story which I love! iloveit1 (It made me a Mami x Kyoko shipper lol) I plan to buy if not both the original and the different story I certainly will buy all of Different Story once it’s finished. Sorry for the rambling. blush1
      With a few exceptions I’m not into yuri,though I could see Mami and Kyoko making a good couple.Though my perferred one would be Homura x Madoka.That said I finally decided on where to put Kyoko and Mami on my list:

      1.Homura

      2.(tie)Kyoko and Mami

      3.Madoka

      4.Sayaka

      5.Hitomi

      I did some more looking around on the Offical Magic Girl Wikia and Sailor Juptier is now in 7th place in their

      latest poll. iloveit1

      I also found out that they list Inukami!, Hell Girl and Stray Little Devil as Mahou Shojo series.

      The latter is a manga series about a girl named Pam whose grandmother tells her a spell to meet a friendly devil.

      She does so and ends up in the Spirit World.But to get back to the human world she has to become a full fledged

      Devil!

      It’s really short (only 5 volumes) and really fun.

      The character Vine is such a sweetie.But my favorite is Lizyerra the girls’ sexy one-eyed teacher. soawesome1 soawesome1

      I wish they make it into an anime if they haven’t already.

      that sounds interesting. I’ll look for it next time I’m at the bookstore. ^_^

      And I like Homura x Madoka as much as Mami x Kyoko. blush1 Poor Sayaka got lefted out but I don’t mind Sayaka x Kyoko or Madoka x Sayaka either….oh God I’m rambling about Yuri ships again…

      Anyway….I hate Hitomi. She really pisses me off I just wanna reach out and slap her I really do. XD lol

      😆

      Well it was either her or Kyubey for the #5 spot.

      Yeah,you really should check to see if Stray Little Devil is around the next time you go to the bookstore.

      It’s great fun.

      I also noticed that B & N have Kaitou Jean,haven’t read that one.

      V-chan is soawesome1 soawesome1 soawesome1 soawesome1 that she has her own personal fangirl of a

      I can’t remember her name at the moment but I remember liking her. I plan to buy the Codename Sailor V manga someday when I get the money.

      Anyway speaking to of V-chan….I’m probably being a bit biased with Venus being my favorite scout but the latest episode of Sailor Moon Crystal is certainly my favorite so far. She looks absolutely gorgeous and her transformation is my favorite so far. I’m excited to see the next episode and glad to see these episodes getting better and better.

      Nice find Julie! I really need to watch Saint Tail again sometime.
      Speaking of games I was at the Puella Magi Madoka Magica Wiki and they have a game section.Funny things

      a lot of the games involve some form of Kyubey abuse or Kill Kyubey for some odd reason. 😆 😆 😆

      For example in one game you play as Homura and it’s basically a Whack-A-Mole type game except you try to

      whack as many Kyubeys as possible.Another game seems to be based on that scene in episode 6 where Kyoko

      wants to pound the you know what out of him.

      I plan on getting Sailor Moon Crystal in March.I still want to get SuperS and Stars as well.

      Depends on how much space I have but also want the movies and specials but especially Ami’s First Love. soawesome1

      AFAIG mangawise I’m starting Inukami! on Sunday…so much fun and 180 reversial from Hell Girl.

      The Fake Hell Correspondence bonus story at the end of vol.4 always gets to me because of the fact that the girls

      misjudged the teacher thinking she was being mean to them but she was only trying to help them be better students.

      I would love that game…..lol sorry I just really dislike Kyubey and what he’s doing to those poor girls. :( (hopefully that isn’t a spoiler of any kind to you Mitsuki)

      Anyway I’m currently watching a new series that just came out this fall called Yuuki Yuuna wa Yuusha de Aru. All I have to say is watch it. explaining it would ruin the surprise effect it has so all I have to say is give it a try. I certainly enjoy it so far. Only 2 episodes out right now so its easy to catch up.

      No.I already know about all that.I’ve been reading the Puella Magi Madoka Magica wiki and know all about Kyubey’s hidden motives in wanting Madoka to become a Magic Girl.Though I was rather surprised when I read the identity of the person who originally told Homura to stop Madoka from becoming a Magic Girl.Rather startling.

      I’m 2 months away from ordering Vividread Operation but in the mean time for November I have

      the non-Magic Girl series Girls Und Panzers to order.Vividread is pretty expensive which is why I’m going to order it around Christmastime.

      Y’know it be fun if they could do something like Precure All Stars except with Magic Girls for different series.

      I’d love to see a team up involving the Love Angels from Wedding Peach with the Sailor Senshis from

      Sailor Moon and Mew Mews from Tokyo Mew Mew along with of course Homura,Kyoko,Mami,Madoka and

      Sayaka from Puell Magi Madoka Magica.At the end the music could be a duet between Full Moon

      and Fancy Lala! it be so soawesome1

      SnowQueen
      Member
      Yes that was quite a twist but I really enjoyed it. I have a feeling you’ll love episode 10 Mitsuki. ;) (I don’t know if your that far yet or not lol)

      Anyway that would be awesome to have all the different Mahou Shoujo’s in something like a movie or a small series.

      I’m only as far as episode 7.So haven’t got to the part where Sayaka turns although she’s starting to act unsocial.

      Well the way I figure it why not have something like that it be fun!

      The way I was thinking it be like something on the lines of DC’s ‘ Crisis On Infinite Earths‘ where there’s a massive threat and various Magic Girls from the different Realities have to come to fight it together. soawesome1 soawesome1

      SnowQueen
      Member
      That would amazing to see ;) What would be just as awesome would be a fighting gaming like that with all the Mahou Shoujo’s.

      Anyway prepare for the tears Mitsuki. T^T I don’t wanna spoil anything so I’ll just say prepare for the despair…

      Yeah it’s starting to look dark already(although let’s not forget what happened to poor Mami earlier).Though my thought is if in the original time line before Homura made her contract with Kyubey Madoka and Sayaka were already

      Magic Girls wouldn’t it mean that no matter how hard Homura tried Madoka and Sayaka would always be fated to

      become Magic Girls because they already made the choice in the original time line?Kind of a Predestination versus

      Free-Will debate.

      Any way as I said earlier here’s a list based on that found on the MAGIC GIRL(Mahou Shoujou)Wiki of all the

      Magic Girl anime and manga I have with some comments:

      1.Aa!Megami Sama!/Ah!My Goddess:probably Inoue Kikoue’s based known role is Belldandy,plus Hisakawa

      Aya as Skuld!

      2.Asagiri Miko/Shrine of the Morning Mist I think though either Priestess(es)of the Morning Mist or

      Morning Mist Priestess(es)makes better sense since the episode introducing the Dark Priestess Club is a pun on the

      series title.

      3.Binzume Yousei/Bottle Fairy Who knew our favorite red headed Puella Magi girl also had the power to shrink

      herself and live in a bottle! 😆 😆

      4.Cutie Honey It really all starts with this one as the original 1973 series was the first Fighter Magical Girl series.

      5.Di-Gi-Charat Nyo! the site didn’t actually, as I recall, list it but it did list Di-Gi-Charat which is good enough.

      6.Dragon Half And yes,that’s the voice of Sailor Moon as Mink in the original Japanese.

      7.Fancy Lala IIRC this came out before Full Moon but overall similiar in some ways though not in others.

      8.Full Moon wo Sagashite speaking of which..yes this is my other favorite Mitsuki that isn’t in Duel.The songs are worth it.

      9.Fushigi Yuugi Yui!Yui!Yui! this is one of those shows where I find the bad guys a bit more interesting

      and fun to root for than the good guys.

      10.Ghost Sweeper Mikami just got in the mail today in fact! iloveit1

      11.Ikki-Tousen this was one of the ones I was surprised got listed.That said I’m just another Ryomo

      fanboy.Something about that one-eyed sadistic maid cosplayer….!

      12.Kiddy Grade and another one that took me by surprise though I guess what with the ES powers of

      Eclaire and Lumiere…

      13.Kimagure Orange Road the original Madoka!I think it’s because of Kurumi and Manami’s esper powers.

      14.Mahoromatic actually does it count since Maho’s an android?

      15.Mahou Shojou Lyrical Nanoha Hey!There’s supposed be a new series with our Kyoko starring in it coming up.

      16.Mamotte Shugogetten I have the manga and saw the fansub of the anime on YOUTUBE.This is kinda

      Ah!My Goddess for the younger set.I absolutely love Shao.

      17.Pretear Horie Yui as Mikage is my favorite character even though she’s the BIG BAD.

      18.Puella Magi Madoka Magica I guess I don’t have to say much here.

      19.Ranma 1/2 yep,another show that surprised me ending on the list.Have some of the manga and the first movie.

      20.Magic Knight Rayearth got the anime for the first season and the manga for the second,so will read the manga after I watch the anime.

      21.Rosario X Vampire I guess Moka’s transformation is what qualifies it.Looked through the most recent

      copy of the manga the last time I was in Spokane and it looks darker than the anime.

      22.Rozen Maiden I’m going to have to get the new series.

      23.Sailor Moonincluding PGSM:I‘ve got the complete manga now and one volume of SuperS

      along with the first 20 episodes of PGSM.Actually watched the preview for the original series before

      watching Sakura Wars on Saturday.

      24.[/i]Slayers[/i] in this case Slayers Gorgeous and Slayers Try can we have too much Lina Inverse?

      25.Stray Little Devil as I think I said before this is a great little manga to read.

      26.Tenshi no Shippo/Angel Tales and no NOT THAT TENCHI! 😆 😆

      Ran the Goldfish is my favorite.

      27.Tokyo Mew Mew got the compiled version of the manga,just wish that they would’ve released an uncut version of the anime like they did with Cardcaptor Sakura

      28.Cardcaptor Sakura Forgot about this one!I have the first 3 episodes fansubbed and episodes 5-8 on

      Geneon’s uncut version.Interesting I read where the subbed uncut version outsold the dubbed version.(I think that was a comment someone posted on Rightstuf’s Anime Today Forums).

      29.UFO Princess Valkyrie yes I know the English title is Ultramaiden(whatever THAT means).Ecchi fun and Ms Sanada is my favorite catgirl maid.(doesn’t hurt that Tanaka Rei also played a certain other girl with the last name of Sanada.Hey..do ya suppose Ms Sanada’s first name might be Mitsuki that would be soawesome1 )

      30.Urusei Yatsura everyone’s favorite tiger stripped bikini wearing space princess!

      31.Inukama just started the manga yesterday.Like I said I’m a Yoko fanboy.She’s so cute but also so

      naughty!

      32.Wedding Peach my overall favorite.And it’s got Tessa from FMP as a Magic Girl in the Japanese original!

      Not mentioned:

      33.Revolutionary Girl Utena at least I didn’t see it listed.

      34.Devil Lady I think it counts in away because of Jun also being Devil Lady.

      I really didn’t know I had so many MG series in my collection until I started to copy the list.What surprised me was

      some of the shows that The Magic Girl Wiki lists as such.

      SnowQueen

      After watching the newest Sailor Moon Crystal episode I have to say I am very impressed with it. Still a little urked with the animation sometimes but it has certainly improved and since the plot is really coming to life in such a fantastic way I’m a little more forgiving about little things. I say it is worth watching for sure. Also episode 9 really brings out the tears. It really hit’s you right in the feels especially if you’ve seen the 90’s version and/or looked at the manga.

      Anyway…

      ^this was my favorite screen-cap of the episode. Usagi is so pretty!~

      It seem’s they are going to do the second arc after all! kiyonesmile1

      Essentials to being a magical girl.

      Of course the #1 essential is you have to be female! 😆

      That is unless you happen to be a Zombie living with a Witch, a Ninja Vampire and a Magic Girl whose powers you

      accidentally sucked up!

      Yeah for the fact that the second arc is going to be broadcast for Sailor Moonnow here’s hoping they do the entire series.

      I was at The Magic Girl Wiki on Saturday and decided to look up a title called Astro Girl, I thought it be something like Astro Boy,but I was pretty wrong!

      Turns out that it was a 2 movie live action series made in 2007 that basically is a rip-off of Supergirl,but to be

      exact the 1990s-2000s Peter David version with the Linda Danvers/Earth Angel Supergirl.Though they seemed to have changed the names and did a bit of enough tweaking not to get Peter David and DC pissed at them(or else

      they either didn’t know about it or didn’t care).

      The only real difference looking at the DVD covers is that she’s wearing an ‘A’ instead of an ‘S’ on her shirt.Also in the second movie DVD cover (which proves it’s the Linda Danvers S-girl)the color of the t’shirt and mini skirt are reversed they have a blue t’shirt and a white mini-skirt whereas Linda wore a white t’whirt and a blue mini

      skirt.Still overall it would be fun to take a look at it just to see the Japanese take on S-girl!

      Oh:BTW:I am thinking of starting a thread discussing my thoughts on Puella Magi Madoka Magica when I’m done with it as I don’t want to spend a needless amount of time taking up the space here so I thought a separate

      thread might be a good idea.

      SnowQueen
      Member
      Yes there aren’t a lot of magical guys out there huh? :|

      Anyway that’s interesting I never knew about that at all. ^^;; and yes I hope they do the whole story too. I really want to my favorite Sailor Moon couple again! ( no not Usagi and Mamoru) ;)

      And you could make a new thread if you wish but honestly it seems like we are the only two that use this thread constantly so you could go ahead and lay your thoughts here if you want. It IS a magical girls thread. :)

      yeah…I noticed.I guess a lot of people are busy with school and work again which is why it seems to be so quiet.

      Hmmm….I wonder…could that possibly be Uranus x Neptune? soawesome1

      I agree they’re probably one of the best yuri couples in anime.Though IIRC the manga doesn’t really go too far

      it just hints at their relationship.

      I still would love to see how they met and were awoken as Sailor Senshis.

      btw:can’t wait to see what you’re going to put up for Thanksgiving(Kyoko munching on a turkey leg perhaps?).

      iloveit1

      SnowQueen

      Right you are Mitsuki! I alway’s really liked them together. ^_^ I would really like to learn about them like you said about how they met and awoken as Senshi.

      And for Thanksgiving I’m sure I’ll have plenty of Kyoko and Usagi (or any other Mahou Shoujo) picture’s of them eating plently of various things!

      And speaking of turkey legs…

      http://media.tumblr.com/0e4a6a1fa0cd34b4abb3f6cff672f19f/tumblr_inline_muna5937nL1rnq9xz.gif

      soawesome1 😆

      Seriously though I really think that Kyoko’s food obsession comes from the fact that her family was poor as the proverbial church mouse once her father was excommunicated for his preaching.The one scene where all they have

      are apples to eat shows why she’s always munching away at something.

      Yeah…pretty well knew you meant Hikaru x Michiru since they’re really the only other couple in Sailor Moon

      besides Usagi x Mamoru.Though I think Rei x Minako make a rather interesting non-yuri couple.

      Well tommorrow I have to say goodbye to Sayaka as I reached episode 9 finally on Madoka. sadface1

      I’d love to know why the Witches all have German names.

      SnowQueen
      Member
      Not even single witch has a German name (which I’m just noticed thanks to you Mitsuki!) but it does seem a big majority of them have German or European name’s.

      But yes poor Sayaka T^T her process in this show sure hit’s me deep. It makes me sad that she get’s so much hate. And I agree Kyoko’s eats so much because she was never able to when she was younger so now she eats whenever she can mostly likely because of this and plus fighting witches is stressful so she’s probably just stress eating as well ^^;

      I alway’s had feeling about Rei and Minako. They do look quite good together.

      edit- due to picture not showing up.

      so here is two for one.

      If you ever read:’Rei’s And Minako’s School Girls Battle?‘ that’s where the whole thing seems to have a start with them.

      It’s interesting there’s an episode of PGSM where Sailor V and Sailor Mars end up in conflict in a church.Sailor V lets Sailor Mars know in no uncertain terms how she’s disappointed in her.

      Well I finally saw episode 9 of Puella Magi Madoka Magica that was certainly a doubly sad one with the deaths

      of both Sayaka and Kyoko,the latter when she’s protecting Madoka from Oktavia.I love the way Kyoko says one last

      prayer before her final attempt to defeat Oktavia.

      So now it’s down to Homura and Madoka.

      And yeah,I have to agree Sayaka is a character that you has to grow on you.Though I don’t regret putting her at

      #4.

      Also I like the way I’ve been able to talk it out hear as it has been help to me getting through Madoka

      otherwise I think I be a basket case by now what with everything happening. woooo1

      SnowQueen
      Member
      I actually don’t think I’ve seen either of those things! O.O I really need to start PGSM soon (I keep putting it off. why? I don’t know) Thanks for that Mitsuki! I’m actually starting to officially ship them together. ^^;;

      And yes Madoka is….quite a journey for sure. it makes me glad to hear that you like you using this thread to get your thoughts out! Makes me glad I made the thread ^_^ and I certainly love chatting about Madoka and other Mahou Shoujo shows.

      Speaking of episode 9, that episode just really made me love Kyoko’s character so much even though it was the last episode she was in sorry for anyone seeing this who hasn’t seen this show yet yes there has been huge spoiler talk. Anyway…it made me really put things in perspective and the fact she would rather go out the way she did then defeat her friend and continue on with her life was really heart warming and heart wrenching at the same time. I’m sad those to had to go but I’m glad they really have each other now.

      Episode 10 is my favorite episode. Hold on to your feels Mitsuki. Its going to be quite a ride.

      Since there are only 2 episodes left after that I take it episode 10 is the one where Homura’s background is finally revealed at last.

      Yes,you really need to see PGSM.I only regret I only was able to get the first twenty episodes as I missed out on the entirety of the Dark Mercury arc,which is probably one of the hardest bits to get through emotionally if you happen to be a Mercury fan.

      But on the whole it is worth watching.Though I wonder if they’ll ever officially release it outside of Japan.

      In another seven weeks or so I’ll be watching not one but three MG shows a week(four if you count Kaleido Star) as I’ll be watching Full Moon Sundays, Magic Knight Rayearth Tuesdays and

      Ghost Sweeper Mikami Fridays.Can’t get too much cooler..uh? soawesome1

      Oh…just wondering have you ever seenMermaid Melody Pichi Pichi and if so what did you think?

      SnowQueen
      Member
      Nice Mitsuki! I need to see both PGSM and Kaleido Star~ I plan to get on that pretty soon. Just need to find a good website with all the episodes available on it.

      As far as Mermaid Melody goes I actually couldn’t get through it. I mean it was cute but for some reason I just couldn’t get into it. I’ve only read the first few manga volumes and just seen a few clips from the anime( and from I’ve seen the anime looks a little better then the manga) so I might try the anime someday. ^^

      I have it and Precure and the anime version of Inukami as Magic Girl shows I still need to see.

      From what I have seen of Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi it seems to be something people either love or hate.

      I think Hanon is probably the closest in character design of any Magic Girl to Usagi.

      And Madoka is now listed on the poll for Magic Girl Hall of Fame over at Magic Girl Wikia.She’s got 2 votes

      and is the only one I know.All the rest I don’t have a clue about.If another Cure wins I shall have to go back and

      read the Pretty Cure Wiki again.

      btw:Cure Moonlight IIRC was played by Hisakawa Aya! soawesome1 (have to look that up again)

      and tonight I begin Ghost Sweeper Mikami.

      Yeah I didn’t like Mermaid Melody very much for some reason.~

      Anyway if you every have a question regarding Precure either it be about a the series or about a Precure Girl I’ll do my best to answer. I haven’t seen every series but I still try and learn about it and get basic knowledge on it. ^^;

      And here is a nice picture with Moonlight and Mercury~~

      Ah yes…I tired to watch it but for once I could say I like the English version better. lol

      And since this is a Magical Girl Thread on a TenchiFourm what better place for Pretty Sammy to take some spotlight~! ;)

      Two comments about that Capcom version of the Puella Magi Madoka Magica girls:

      1.WTH:why did they make Kyoko so butch looking?

      2.Homura in any format is always soawesome1 soawesome1 soawesome1 !!!!

      I enjoyed episode 10 yesterday a lot.So the whole thing is really Homura’s wish to keep meeting Madoka which in the end causes Homura to have a Bill Murray like Ground Hog Day expierence.Though what was Madoka’s original wish it the original time line?

      SnowQueen:Thanks for the pic of Mercury with Moonlight.I did check the Precure Wiki and yes,it is Hisakawa Aya

      playing Cure Moonlight.

      Getting back to Madoka I enjoy it so much I put it up in my top 20 list of anime at #15 just below

      Neon Genesis Evangelion at #14.

      And as far as Pretty Sammy goes,something tells me if I ever watched it I might end up rooting for Pixie Misa.

      Yeah Madoka and Homura look the most like themselves and I guess Kyoko got butched because all that food turned into muscle ;) Lol

      I don’t know honestly what Madoka’s original wish was. I was always curious about that but it never got explain. :|

      Madoka is such a great series yes? ~ If you have the time you should watch the movies and read the manga (if not the original you should definitely read Different Story)

      And I always thought the voice actress for Moonlight and Mercury also voiced Cure Beauty as well but I looked it up and I guess I was wrong. Lol

      Anyway I actually liked Pixa Miss a lot better so you just might end up rooting for her, I did. Lol Pixa Miss and Ramia ftw!

      Well to begin with she’s just such a badass compared to Pretty Sammy and secondly there’s the whole split personality thing.When she’s not Pixie Misa she’s Sasami’s best friend and is really the sweetest girl ever.

      Yeah,it might be a whole Fushigi Yugi thing where the villains are more interesting than the the heroes.

      It depends on viewpoint due to its weirdness but it’s hilarious… Ok it gets a “bit” bloody with Kyoko.

      JFYI The actual arc starts halfway through season one and ends with season two

      Speaking of girls named Kyoko,I now only have the finale left to Puella Magi Madoka Magica a series that has

      exceeded what I expected and hoped.

      After that I will be switching gears and watching Full Moon,yes time for another Mitsuki! 😆

      I just got done with the Different Story manga and it’s great! Certainly worth the read. And have fun with the last episode! If you still got Madoka fever you could watch the 3 movies, read the manga of the original and the different story and read the couple of spin – offs that they have!
      It’s more like Homura fever. soawesome1

      Yeah,I have thought of ordering the movies but wanted to see the series first before I decided.

      Oh…I hate making lists as I keep forgetting something and this time I totally forgot about Omamori Himari.

      Loved the anime when I saw the fansub on Youtube and got some of the manga.

      Demon Catgirl with sword.Doesn’t get much better than that. soawesome1

      I read at the Madoka wiki that each of the seiyuus who play the main characters all tried out for Kyubey.

      Madoka’s seiyuu sounded ‘too childish’ and I think Saito Chiwa ended up sounding way ‘too stupid’.

      On a sad note the seiyuu who played Madoka’s mom is said to have a rare autoimmune disease and so she was

      being cared for by her mother. 😥 😥

      Vividred will be ordered on Monday when I walk down to the library.Just have to finish filling out the order form.I checked and Rightstuf said as long as I order Economy I don’t have to pay S & H just the $59.98.

      AFAIG:Just Sunday for the finale of Madoka and Monday I shall be ready with my final thoughts on the series.

      Despite it being a bit depressing at times,Sayaka’s death etc.,I really have enjoyed it.

      SnowQueen
      Member
      I had no idea all the girl’s originally wanted to be Kyubey. That’s interesting ^^ Also didn’t know that the voice actor (Japanese) for Madoka’s mother was so ill :(

      Oh and if you have Homura fever you will LOVE Rebellion. Can’t wait to hear your final thoughts on the series~!

      thanks:

      In short I really loved it a lot.I think it was one of the best to come out of the 2010s thus far.

      The ending especially was bittersweet but hit the right buttons.Sayaka and Madoka together at the

      concert hall was one of my favorite scenes of the entire series.

      It was also great seeing Mami and Kyoko again.

      Coming into it I didn’t know how much I would like it,but it more than met my expectations and

      beyond anything I could have dreamed of.

      I think the last three episodes were more about Homura than Madoka.Also I thought when Madoka arrives at the end of episode 11 Homura was going to turn into a Witch.I guess that happens only in the game and movies(?)and not the tv series.

      Music wise,I think that the OP is one of those that is really catchy and it’s still playing in my head.

      If you have the DVD watch the Music Video that comes with the first volume.IIRC it’s where they

      get the animation for the ED for the majority of the show from.

      Kyubey,I really think for the most part isn’t either good or evil,being an alien he simply has

      different way of looking at things.Though his cruelest was when he was egging Sayaka on.

      I took the last scene with all five girls with their backs turned meant that the world no longer needs either Incubators or Magic Girls.I could be wrong there but that is my thinking on it.

      Any ways,yes,I would love to get the movies one of these days,probably down the road a bit

      before I end my collecting days.

      And so on to Full Moon to unwind from Madoka.

      SnowQueen
      Member
      I’m glad you enjoyed it so much! kiyonesmile1

      Madoka has certainly turned into a obsession of mine and I love the story and all the girls~Praise Godoka!

      And even though Kyubey in a way was trying to save the universe in a way I guess I hate how he made the girls suffer and having them meet there doom. I love cats but he’s the one cat I frickin hate. wtfisthis1 lol

      Anyway have fun with the movies if you decide to get them. Just to note the first two movies are basically just like the TV series just with more enhances and editing and detail and different pace and transformations but the third movie is based off something different. Kinda its own thing in a way. And yes I love love love the OP and I like the ending as well. ^^

      Have fun with Full Moon. I might get to that….someday. Lol oh and if your looking for a good show I suggest Yuki Yuna is a Hero or the JP title~ Yuuki Yuuna wa Yuusha de Aru.

      Thanks,I will.

      Full Moon is a fun show but unfortunately for some reason or other Viz decided to cancel before

      they finished,so I only have the first three volumes.I really enjoy myco’s singing as Mitsuki/Full Moon.

      IIRC this was the only anime she worked on according to ANN.

      After something like Puella Magi Madoka Magica you really do need to take a break from all the

      angst,even though it’s a great show,and go in an opposite direction.

      Anyway here’s a list I made of my top ten favorite Magic Girl Shows(based on The Magic Girl Wiki):

      10.Rosario x Vampire

      9.Full Moon

      8.Moonphase

      7.Tokyo Mew Mews

      6.Magic Knight Rayearth

      5.Cutie Honey

      4.Puella Magi Madoka Magica

      3.Kimagure Orange Road

      2.Sailor Moon

      1.Wedding Peach

      Yeah,Sailor Moon has to be always either #1 or #2 on such lists. soawesome1

      Yuki Yuna looks like it will be headed our way sooner or later* if I read things correctly.I love the idea of a ‘Heroes Club’ that turns into a real HEROES CLUB.I think it will be a fun one to watch.

      * I mean DVD/Bluray.

      It also looks like I waited too long since Princess Tutu is now listed at Rightstuf as

      We Will Get It For You.The fact that it went from $29.99 to around $12.99 should have been the hint.

      Looks like Plan B:Cardcaptor Sakura in January and part 1 of Sailor Moon in February

      with part 2 and t’shirt in March.

      Nice! To bad on Tutu though. You could find it on ebay or amazon.

      And I have to say even though Rosario Vampire does have “transformations” I honestly can’t think of it as a magical girl show though maybe Yukari and Ruby could pull it off. lol XD

      And I’m loving Yuki Yuna more than I thought. It predictably unpredictable. ^^;

      I know what you mean about Rosario X Vampire I guess the guy who runs the Magic Girl Wikia

      as certain criteria that we don’t know about to identify what is a Magic Girl Show.

      btw:I saw the first three episodes of a series called Amethyst,Princess of Jewel World the last time I was there.

      It’s a very short 7 episode series where all the episodes are only 1:17 in length.It revolves around a girl named Amy who gets literally caught up in a videogame after she looses.To get out of the videogame world she has to complete a number of quests and defeat the Boss so she can free the

      Prince.

      Yeah, I waited too long on Princess Tutu and I do love classical music.

      Started Full Moon yesterday again.And in another two weeks I start Magic Knight Rayearth on Tuesdays. iloveit1

      I never heard of Amethyst- Princess of the Jewel World before. Sounds like something I would like though. I’ll have to look it up! : )

      I plan on starting PGSM soon as well as a old show that looks very magical girl like called Angel Nurse Ririka. (And maybe re-watch some Saint Tail again for that nostalgic feeling)

      anyway as soon as you get the chance you should certainly watch Tutu and I also want to re-try watching Magic Knight Rayearth again. I just kinda stopped and couldn’t get back into it once I started it again but that was a few years back so I think one more try is deserved.

      Yeah,I should really check with Rightstuf about Princess Tutu.

      btw:I love your new siggie Snowqueen but what are they chasing?Kyubey?

      I have only the finale to watch of Inuyasha:The Final Act and then on to Magic Knight Rayearth. Fuu is the Ami of the Knights plus she is a full fledged megane-sama.

      I think you’ll love PGSM Snowqueen,from just having watched the first 20 episodes,it really is totally soawesome1 soawesome1 .It does get a bit dicey and emotional though when you get into

      the whole Dark Mercury Arch.But then again Mercury Fanboy here.

      Anyways speaking of old time classics you should also see about Fancy Lala.

      My siggie is actually from a video called smooooch. Theres a madoka version, a AoT version, and lots of other anime versions of it. linky –> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGCaeowCOvM

      And I can’t wait to start PGSM as I am quite curious about Dark Mercury and such.

      Ok, my other theory,since Kyoko is in the lead, was that there was FOOD in front of them. iloveit1

      Well I have only seen the first twenty episodes as I said,but from what I have read of the rest of the

      series The Dark Mercury Arc is pretty intense,even though it lasts 6 or 7 episodes.Though the down side to it all is that it introduces Sailor Luna.PGSM version of Chibiusa, a lot of fans really hate her.

      I did manage to contact Rightstuf via e-mail and they said as long as it doesn’t have the ‘Discontinued tag that I could still order Princess Tutu.So that’s what I did since

      “Kawanai to koukaisuru kamoshi renai.”:”If I don’t get it, I might regret it.”

      SnowQueen
      Member
      Oh yes…I’ve heard quite a few complaints about Sailor Luna… Kiyofacepalm1 and not being a big fan of Chibiusa I probably won’t favor Sailor Luna either but I’m not going to set that in stone until I see her myself.

      And holy crap did anyone watch the latest Yuuki Yuuna episode? All I have to say is I did not see half of that coming…. wth2 It really made me interested in the prequel that I didn’t know existed until this show. I can’t wait till next week I need to know what happens~! >_<

      And now we have dancing Kyoko,Madoka and Moemura-chan. 😆 iloveit1

      I think it would be better if they had Sayaka and Mami as well…still lovin’ the siggie.

      Well yeah, I’m only saying what I have read not having seen past episode 20 of PGSM.

      There’s a prequel to Yuuki Yuuna?

      This makes me need to see it even more.

      btw:Wedding Peach, Nanoha and Madoka were all listed on a list of

      Anime Magic Girl Shows You Really Need To Binge Watch over at Anime.Com.Other than

      Sailor Moon of course.

      I saw the trailer for Yuuki Yuuna at Youtube.That was fun.
      SnowQueen
      Member
      Thank you ^_^ I wish Sayaka and Mami were in it but that part is just those three and Moemura :D I’m going to use that now.

      And yes the prequel to Yuuki Yuuna is called Washio sumi wa yusha de aru and last weeks episode showed how the characters from the prequel connect to the current story. Yuuki Yuuna is certainly one of my favorite show this season and I hope thing’s turn out okay for the main characters because I honestly don’t know what to expect.

      Anyway I haven’t seen Wedding Peach in awhile but it’s one of my favorite Magical Girl show’s for sure. Momoko <3

      I should be getting Vividred sometime before or after Christmas since I just got the confirmation e-mail from Rightstuf yesterday. Then Princess Tutu if all goes right should come in sometime after the First.It be funny if it came the same time as Cardcaptor Sakura.

      Fun fact about Wedding Peach, Reindevilla was played by Doi Mika who also played

      Ayuko in Dual so there’s a slight Tenchi link.But also IIRC Hinagiku was played by the same seiyuu as also played one Asuka Langley Soryhu.Shinji needs to watch out! iloveit1

      At least that’s if I remember the filmography correctly for her at both Wikiepedia and ANN.

      Vividred is pretty good. I really like the transformations a lot and they are pretty creative. I also like the mecha element the show has. ^^ and that’s cool about Raindevilas voice actress I had no idea about that. ^^; Lol I learn a lot in this thread.

      Yes and so do I.

      btw: I’m still wondering if I should order the Cardcaptor Sakura movie in January or go with the

      February to the same awesome goodness as PMMM.

      BTW: I rechecked yesterday on Princess Tutu and it’s back in stock,though I’m still glad I sent my order in when I did.

      I saw Ahiru and Rue’s transformations from Princess Tutu over at the Magic Girl Wikia on

      Saturday.Rue’s into Princess Kraehe looked painful.Poor girl like Yui in Fushigi Yugi she’s

      deceived by the Big Bad.

      And now I can’t wait to get Princess Tutu.Sounds like Puella Magi Madoka Magica it’s going to be a bit dark.

      SnowQueen

      Yes it does get pretty dark. I say its one of the original “darker” magical girl show that I know of anyway. blush1 just my opinion. I would say more but spoils. Lol ^^; and no prob. If you ever feel attention is lackin on a character you like let me know and I’ll post some pics of them up on the thread when I can. kiyonesmile1
      I should be getting Princess Tutu sometime next week as the confirmation just came in yesterday .Since Thursday is New Year’s I don’t expect it to go out until Friday at the earliest.

      January I am going to order Cardcaptor Sakura season 1 and then later in the year order the movie.

      Even though it’s not technically a magic girl series,I’m starting season 2 New Wings of

      Kaleido Star tonight.Since I have both the Funi and ADV versions I will be alternating weeks

      between the two.This week I am beginning with the ADV version.

      So through the first two episodes of Magic Knight Rayearth and it’s pretty clear now that

      Hikaru is the main character of the trio.

      SnowQueen
      Member
      The Cardcaptors movie is pretty good (I haven’t seen it in so long though) but from what I remember I liked it.

      And if I had to pick a girl from Magical Knights Rayearth I would go with Umi~ though I like Hikaru and Fu/Fuu (I dunno if her name is right) too but there was just something about Umi I likes the most. Like she has a very sailor mars like personality with the firepower to go with it. She has the opposite power instead. kiyonesmile1

      Edit- image funked out so here’s a new one to replace it~

      Yeah,that’s rather interesting since one would think Fuu would have to water based powers since she

      is so similiar to Mercury in being the logical member of the trio.It’s also interesting that according to

      the Magic Knight Rayearth Wikia Umi happens to be the Pisces of the group.So logically being a

      Pisces myself she ought to be my favorite(plus her color is light blue).Or maybe it’s because I like

      smart logical magic girls. soawesome1

      Although my liking Momoko kinda skews that theory.

      Added Kill la Kill to my list of anime I need to see.

      btw:I’ve gotten Fuu the most on personality quizzes though I have also gotten Umi and Hikaru both at least once.

      SnowQueen
      Member
      Lol Momoko is smart in her own way. ~

      I guess in a way you could consider Kill la Kill a magical girl show because of the transformation sequences and what not and special moves but it just seems out place as one despite those facts, but KLK is certainly a interesting show to say the least and Satsuki-sama soawesome1 that is all. lol

      Edit- gif stopped working so I’m replacing the image with these two lovely pictures of Satsuki-Sama <3

      On a random note I’m going to start Fate/Kaleid Liner Prisma Illya kiyonesmile1 It’s my first Fate/~ anime and I should probably start with the orignal or UBW but this one strikes me the most mostly for being a magical girl show and the characters being so cute~ Hopefully I won’t be to confused but if it end’s up being good I just might write a review for it on here. : )

      So I took a Kill la Kill personality quiz and it comes out that I am most like Ryuko!

      Kinda kills any chance of Satsuki fanboyism on my part doncha think? 😆 😆 😆

      I love this probably more than I should but it’s about time we have Magical Dudes~ take everything traditional in the genre and make it with the opposite gender instead. You’ll probably either love it or hate it but I so far love it. I had mix feelings watching it at first but now I can say I’m excited to see more of this series and I have high hopes for this~

      The only one I can remember is when Aoyama in Tokyo Mew Mews changes into the Blue Knight,and then later on toward the end of the series it’s revealed he’s also really The Big Bad:

      Blue.

      btw:They had a funny video at the I09 website about what happened when the Sailor Scouts learn

      Pluto has been downgraded from being a planet.Everyone is in chibi form.Pretty hilarious.Poor

      So yesterday started the second arc of Sailor Moon and I gotta say I’m really disliking it. Half the episode was ending the first arc (so the story for the second arc doesn’t start happening till the last 10 mins or so) and I know something like sailor moon is going to be very predictable and cliche but man was it really cheesy. And that’s not my biggest beef. My beef is the way Chibusa looked for her first appearance.

      She looks like a five year old with a adults face (and head size) and with Mamoru blushing after a little girl kisses him. Sorry but that’s gross. Anyway hopefully it gets better because as of now this was my least favorite episode and hopefully it will stay like that because that will mean the other episodes will be better.

      It looks more serious than it is as IIRC that’s really just a squirt gun she’s holding.Yeah she has major

      daddy issues with Mamoru.

      Well I still plan on ordering Set 1 next month.

      (Really does anyone really like Chibiusa outside of Setsuna and Hotaru?)

      Just 2 weeks left on Ghost Sweeper Mikami and then Vividred.

      And just for the heck of it:Which Magical Girl from each of the following do ya think I’m most like in

      personality?:

      1.Wedding Peach

      2.Sailor Moon

      3.Magic Knight Rayearth

      4.Tokyo Mew Mew

      5.Princess Tutu

      6.Vividred

      7.Puella Magi Madoka Magica

      8.Yuuki Yuna

      For 1-5 and 7 I want to see how accurate the personality quizzes I’ve taken are and for 6 and 8

      just to satisfy my curiosity.(Also you can add Kill La Kill if you want to.)

      I’m interested in just which MG another person might think I’m most like. blush1

      I’m not great at these types of things but I’ll give it my best shot. blush1

      1.Wedding Peach- I say Lily the most

      2.Sailor Moon- Mercury with a bit of Pluto

      3.Magic Knight Rayearth- Fuu. ^^

      4.Tokyo Mew Mew- I’m gonna say Keiichiro and Lettuce

      5.Princess Tutu- This one is the hardest I’m actually not really sure on this one maybe Duck?

      6.Vividred- I’m not to sure on this either but I’m gonna go with Himawari with a bit of Akane

      7.Puella Magi Madoka Magica- Hm…this one is also hard but I say Mami and Sayaka

      8.Yuuki Yuna- I think Togo is a good match

      Sorry if these aren’t accurate but I tired. ^^; You can guess at me and maybe other forum members if ya want. Tenchismile I didn’t put down KLK because I honestly have idea. ^_^;;

      thanks,I just thought it would add something to the conversation and also because I was just curious.

      Now I’m gonna have to look up Togo,Himawari and Akane! iloveit1

      Actually Fuu,Lettuce and Sayaka were mark on as I’ve gotten all of them at least twice on personality quizzes although I get Mint more now(or it could be I cheat a bit 😆 )Mercury was also mark on.

      Though it was the first time I was told I in any way resembled Pluto!

      Duck is the only one I think I disagree with but have to wait until March when I start watching

      Princess Tutu to see if it’s right or not.

      I should have added Nanoha but I totally forgot though I think I’m more like Fate in some ways.

      Togo-

      Akane-

      Himawari-

      So I was curious and so I took a few quizzes for a few magical girls series and my results were-

      Puella Magi Madoka Magica- Homura

      Magic Knight Rayearth- Fuu

      Sailor Moon- I got a different answer everytime. ^^; (Jupiter, Mercury,Uranus, and even Luna) so I’m not sure ^^;

      Wedding Peach- Scarlet

      Tokyo Mew Mew- Ichigo

      Kill la Kill- Nonon and Mako (got them both evenly)

      Meh that’s all I’m gonna do for now ^^;

      Looks almost like what I get except I get Mercury most of the time on Sailor Moon.

      Speaking of which here are the results of various quizzes I have taken:

      1.Sailor Moon, Sailor Mercury and Sailor Neptune

      2.Tokyo Mew Mew,Lettuce and Mint

      3.Magic Knight Rayearth,Fuu(but I also got both Umi and Hikaru at least once)

      4.Wedding Peach,Salvia and Daisy

      5.Princess Tutu,Rue

      6.Puella Magi Madoka Magica,I’ve gotten all the girls except for Kyoko(I think I haven’t gotten her)but mainly Homura and Sayaka.

      I start Vividred in two weeks and Princess Tutu in March.

      Also will be ordering Set 1 of Sailor Moon Feb.9.

      P.S. I seem to end up with some of the more Melancholy type characters.

      Of course I happen to be a Melancholic myself( Melancholic/Phlegmatic to be exact).

      And the good news is that Yuki Yuna Is A Hero is coming out on April 10! iloveit1

      Meanwhile I have only one episode left of what I have of Ghost Sweeper Mikami and then

      on to Vividred starting February 6.

      Cardcaptor Sakura Season 1 came in today.In another week and a half I’ll be ordering

      Sailor Moon Set 1 and the Cardcaptor Sakura movie.

      Now with Yuki Yuna coming out in April we have one more thing to look forward to! iloveit1

      I know most people don’t consider KLK as a magical girl show but I think it has enough elements to make it part of the magical girl genre

      And if you don’t think so…

      lol jk

      You need to add some of Minako as both Sailor V and Sailor Venus as well as Setsuna as Sailor Pluto.

      Also how’s about some Wedding Peach images along with Tokyo Mew Mews

      Full Moon and Magic Knight Rayearth?

      Next week I start Vividred and the week after I send in my order for Sailor Moon Crystal

      Set 1 along with the CCS movie.

      I really can’t wait for them to get to the Stars arch in SM finally and my favorite bad girl

      in the whole SM saga:Galaxia!

      Though she’s totally different personalitywise in PGSM from her usual goofy self in both the manga and anime.Lot more of the serious mature Minako in PGSM.

      Misa/Pixy Misa even more now. soawesome1

      RWBY is an awesome series by roosterteeth and made by Monty Oum, who recently passed away. There is two volumes out and can be seen on youtube or the roosterteeth website. Music can be found on iTunes or roosterteeth. Start with episode 1 “Ruby Rose” and you’ll be hooked.

      Minako is awesome indeed…though Ami is even more AWESOME! iloveit1

      I really did enjoy Vividred especially the way they skillfully used Akane’s fear of heights(I sympathize with her on that)as an important plot point.

      Just sent in my Sailor Moon Set 1 and Cardcaptor Sakura Movie order in to Rightstuf

      today. soawesome1

      I think Rightstuf as RWBY if I’m not mistaken.

      Only two episodes of Full Moon left and then Princess Tutu.BTW:I see in one of my old

      Rightstuf Print Catalogs that they had up to vol.7 available back in the day but I only have the first three.. wtfisthis1

      RWBY is indeed available at Rightstuf.

      Hey Snow is it possible to have a group pic of some of my favorite Magic Girls from different series together ?

      Wedding Peach,Sailor Mercury,Fuu,Mew Minto,Homura,Full Moon and Himawari(when do she show up in Vividred?).

      And just for the heck of it Sora from Kaliedo Star.

      Also thanks for the trailer Nobu! I’m so excited for that!

      That is so much like her,sweet and shy.

      The Sailor Saturn card is really funny:”I won’t destroy a world with you in it.”Considering

      what she can do..

      Can we replace the Chibimoon one with a Galaxia one instead?

      Umi got her chance to shine yesterday in episode 9 of MKR. Nice to see her get her chance of going all badass on the villain of the week.

      btw: who do you think the most badass magic girls are?

      Nice~! I’d liked Umi best in Magic Knights Rayearth. As far as my favorite badass magical girl’s…isn’t it obvious? ;)

      Yet of course all the Madoka Girl’s are bad asses in their own right.

      And if we consider RWBY magical girl which I kinda do I guess then Yang certainly is badass as well the rest of them~

      A Certain Scientific Railgun: it’s full of young girl middle-schoolers, have ridiculous powers, serious and goof moments.

      It is science based, but Vividred, RWBY, and Kill la Kill are not magical based, they are science based that is almost looks like magic.

      That’s Arthur C. Clarke’s famous Law.

      I forget the exact wording but it denotes that any advanced science will appear to be magic.

      Sadly Utena and Anthy only came in third place in the Rightstuf poll.

      AFAIG:Rei on Vividred looks to be the series resident badass girl.

      So, being the antagonist with the same powers as the magical girls, classifies her as a magical girl herself? If that is the logic, then the female antagonists from other magical girl shows are magical girls as well.

      On a serious note I guess the term “magical girl” is being used rather loosely here but different people have different opinions on what stereotypes and makes a Mahou Shoujo. If we think about it traditionally then be those standards most of the shows mentioned don’t really qualify under magical girl status. That being said however there have been several genre breakers that opened the horizon for different shows to qualify. I honestly think *watch out personally opinion and not meant to be offensive in anyway at all* Just because the female/male protagonist(s) can use magic and/or can fight in a costume doesn’t necessarily mean they qualify under the genre. If that was the case and only need those two factors then almost a majority of anime would be considered. I’m rather picky about what I believe under “magical girl” but I respect everyone’s opinion and this is a safe thread to express your thoughts and if you really think a show belong’s here then go right ahead and post it here by all means. Everyone has different opinions and that’s a good thing. Otherwise everything would be boring and dull.

      EDIT- No I’m not saying this because anyone did anything wrong. Just FYI.^^

      Yukinojo

      The problem of course is that a lot of anime end up being genre busters in that they can be placed under more than one genre.

      For example is Escaflowne a mecha series with a fantasy setting or a fantasy series that includes mecha?

      Another key example is Fushigi Yugi:is it a magic girl series that takes place in an alternate

      fantasy world or is it a fantasy with magic girls thrown in?And does the fact that Yui and Miaka are

      priestesses make them magic girls?

      Any way you put it sometimes it’s just hard to pindown certain shows as to whether or not they

      are or aren’t Magic Girl shows(for a good instance of how hard it is sometimes look at the list they have up at the Magic Girl Wiki…anyone ever think Ikki-tousen would qualify as such?)

      Any ways just my ten cents worth which with inflation makes them about $19.95+tax=$33.45

      Canadian! 😆 😆 😆

      I was going to say I finally started Princess Tutu and the only thing that was a bit jarring was

      she’s a zombie magic girl since she’s undead throughout most of Inuyasha?

      That’s a tricky question actually. ^^;

      As far as extreme basics go… it’s about bears that become a danger to mankind (bears eat humans in this universe) because a asteroid/star like thing fell to earth, so mankind hides behind a wall but what they didn’t know is that the bears can disguise themselves as humans. So the school the main characters girl attends has several bears in it. Two in particular try to become her friends to protect from a force beyond the bears themselves called the “invisible storm”.

      Basically if your looking for a show that has loads of symbolism and metaphors and looking for something different from the normal then this is the show for you. Its also from the creator of Revolutionary Girl Utena. ^_^

      A little warning though it is true to it title of YURI Kuma Arashi. There is quite a bit of yuri and if that isn’t your thing then this might not be your show since the whole story is centered around it.

      I don’t mind yuri as long as it has a purpose and is not simply being used as a gimmick.

      Since it is from the creator of Utena it sounds like something I might enjoy if I had the space

      for it.

      Its more of a message than anything. Different people see it differently though of course. Its certainly worth at least a try if nothing else. I enjoy it way more than i thought. Waiting not one but two weeks after a major cliffhanger is really driving me nuts and i want to know what happens so bad! A few weeks ago i probably wouldn’t of cared for a two week gap but now… wheres my YUUUURRRIII KUUUUMMMMMAAA!? ( <---- People who watch the show will get it. Lol) Also Ukinojo i love the soul eater girls! Liz and Patty and Blair are my favorites.

      Is getting Maka on a personality quiz a good thing? I got her when I did a “Which Soul Eater Character

      Are You Most Like?” quiz over at Theotaku.

      Yeah it’s Himawari, I checked at the Vividred wikia. As I said on the Kinofthestars forum,I guess

      I’m just confusing her with Himari from Omamori Himari.Though considering one’s a sword swinging catgirl demon and the other isn’t….

      yeah easy to get ’em confused there! 😆

      Yeah, Rei is certainly the Homura of the series.

      And Rue is my personal favorite on Princess Tutu so elegant.

      Honestly I think Lust qualifies more but since shes a antagonist maybe not. Even so if Izumu (who is f**king awesome btw) is consider a “Mahou Shoujo” then (i think I said this in an earlier post)Edward is a “Mahou Shounen” though this is using the terms very loosely.

      Lust is more of a magical creature created, not actually a magical user like Izumi. Blair is a magical creature, but qualifies as a magical girl since she is a magic user.

      SnowQueen

      Blair can also transform which is why I think she can somewhat qualify more than Izumi and Lust. Your right about Lust that shes more of a magical creature but if Izumi can be qualify because she can use magic does that mean every anime girl and guy that uses magic(and that’s a lot) qualify as well?

      Lol. It’s actually a pretty funny show. It totally just lives to make fun of itself. It’s a silly light hearted pretty tradional formula besides the characters (being guys) and their personalities aren’t what you would normally see in a magical girl/guy show. It’s made by the same person that made Daily Lives of High School Boys and School Rumble so of course it has quite a wacky element to it.

      and the Yaoi subtext is STRONG in this one. lol

      Hulu and crunchyroll should have them. Also if you wanted to you could just watch the movies instead if your rushed for time or don’t want to fully invest into the show but still want to know what it’s all about . The first two movies are just a edited version of the show. Meaning some parts are cut out and some scenes are a little less detailed but you still get the main point and the 3rd movie is just it’s own thing entirely but you would have to watch the series and or the movies first. It’s definitely a changer in the magical girl genre for sure.

      I actually liked that about Madoka Magica. Not because the main character is always crying in despair ect. but because in Madoka’s situation it seems more a lot more realistic for her to be that way than happy-go lucky smiling when her friend’s died in front of her and she has a huge weight on her shoulders the whole show. Eventually Madoka end’s up the bravest of all of them because of her wish even though people complain about her being a crybaby but I’m pretty sure if they were in her shoes they would have done the same thing. Sorry for the rant. Just wanted to share my opinion.

      For a fanservice-heavy show it’s actually quite good, and for a comedy the main plot can get surprisingly dark and serious at times. As Ukinojo says, the feels are strong with this one. As are the laughs.

      Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha fans~ New series Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha ViVid is out now (first episode)

      Now adding two shows ( will add the other one in a bit) to this thread that some may or may not think belong in this thread but I think they have enough quality’s to belong and one of them ISN’T anime.

      Show 1-

      Can you guess?…..no? Okay then.

      Steven Universe~

      Why would I add this you ask? Because it’s actually a good series that has elements that make it have a anime a feel and at times even a magical girl feel (even though the main character is a boy)

      I’m sure a few may disagree (just because they have powers doesn’t mean it always falls into magical girl territory) but the transformation (fusions) and the way they can summon weapons and of course the speeches that they sometimes give me the feel of mahou shoujo(or just anime in general). (of course considering this show is always being lumped and compared to Madoka Magica, it seems I’m not the only one)

      Does anyone else watch this show? Do you agree? Disagree? (no bashing) Who is your favorite gem? Favorite episode so far?

      Also leaving this cute picture of Lapis.

      Also adding new shows two of them that are brand new and one that just needs more attention and I myself forgot about~

      Show By Rock!!

      This show is..not what I expected to say the least…and I don’t know if I will watch it all the way through since I’m not really sure how I feel about it yet but with cute girls, rock music, 3D animal chibi’s and monster fights…what the hell why not see what happens nexts.

      Houkago no Pleiades

      I had mix feelings after seeing some reviews but I was pleased with it at the end of the first episode. It embodies the traditional formula as well as has little touches to makes it more unique and not quite so strict to the rules but all in all if you’re looking for a nice traditional mahou shoujo show with lovely animation then you should give this a try!

      Now this show has been around a while but not a lot of people know about it…(forgot about it myself and its been so long I don’t even remember the plot) but a song I listened to the other day reminded me of the them to this show and I really want to watch this again because it has nice animation and really the only thing I remember form it is that its similar to a fairy tale but I cant remember which one it was. I believe it was Snow White but maybe it was Cinderella? Both? I need to watch this again~~~

      This picture sums up what magical girls needs to revitalize. No more cutesy little magical sticks and frilly stuff, magic guns and explosives to destroy creatures. Magic being used to enhanced the effect.

      I want to see Homura vs. Rei from Vividred that would be interesting. Rei doesn’t believe in frilly stuff either.

      And yes,Snow! Thanks for bringing up Pretear, a show that needs a lot more love.

      They probably did have those when Madoka was at its peak but I can’t say for sure. It wouldn’t surprise me if there was a time those were actually being sold.

      The Magical Girl Strange Juice from Punchline, does not seem to have magical abilities. But the show does invite supernatural so she might actually get some powers, she just uses gadgets and honed reflexes and strength.

      But I have to say somehow Dark Mercury has to be the most bablicious of the Senshis.(Why is it

      Yeah,Snow I think I’ll go with Yuki Yuuna.Also the Joan of Arc one is something that I should think of looking into.She has always been one of my favorite Catholic Saints,part of it has to do with the fact that my Irish great grandmother’s direct male line ancestry was French(there was this thing

      called the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes that Louis XIV signed that forced them to move eventually to Ireland).

      I don’t mind fanservice or ecchi too much as long as it doesn’t get too much in the way of the story.

      Any way I’m finally starting Sailor Moon tonight.This is the first time of watching SM since

      Possibly my new favorite non-magical magical girl with Strange Juice is Flamenco Diamond

      she seriously reminds me of Asuka (probably who she was modeled after)

      So what is Strange Juice all about again?

      I just started Sailor Moon yesterday. My observations:

      *So Usagi’s superpower is her crying? 😆

      *Actually the whole tiara turning into a boomerang seems to have been borrowed from Cutie Honey or at least she did it long before Usagi.(Except hers wasn’t a tiara it was something else.)

      *”Sailor V kick!”…that gotta hurt! :lol

      *PGSM Naru’s mom is a famous fashion designer and Usagi actually uses the disguise

      pen.

      * I keep wondering if Sailor V would still be so cool if people knew what kind of a ditz Minako is in real life.

      * I so want to see what Ami got on that test…100 I bet.

      *Yeppers…pretty much like the manga so far.

      *I think that Mitsuisi Kotono is probably the only seiyuu who could pull off playing Sailor Moon,I think after doing her so long she can do her in her sleep!

      Must I choose? In any case if we’re going to have a death battle between a Sailor Senshi and

      Actually I perfer one between Mercury and Mami ’cause they’d only sit around drinking tea and

      Going with Madoka, not because of becoming god, but she is a magical girl that actually faces the consequence of death in her life. Sailor Moon is ridiculous at times, and it makes Madoka seem tougher and relatable a bit. Admittedly, I have not seen crystal and forgotten the first SM so I don’t the pros of it.
      I think it would be close but given Usagi’s expierence level I would have to give her the slight edge.

      Madoka’s expierences were all wiped out every time that Homura time hopped so that she always

      has to start out fresh; but Usagi doesn’t have that problem so her level is always steady.

      Now as far as Mars vs. Kyoko goes,again it would be close but I think that given the fact that

      Kyoko has a tendency to act a bit rashly Rei would probably win but not before Kyoko did some

      heavy damage.

      Overall the one Magica I see winning in any battle against the Sailor Scouts would have to be

      Homura.

      The main protagonist of a mg show is usually the strongest in the end, but what about the second in commands or second strongest?

      Like Madoka, before being god, Mami was considered strong, even took on Homura. Although Homura was pretty strong in the long run, so a tie for second kind of.

      It’s tough to think of second strongest magical girls

      Weird, I know.But I found it amusing, so I had to share.

      I found a quiz over at Playbuzz called:What Would You Look Like As A Sailor Scout?

      basically after you answer a bunch of questions it tells you what your Scout name would be and

      has a pic of what you would look like,with details of what the character is like.

      I got Sailor Earth.(Yeah..I know there is no such person as Sailor Earth) my Sailor fuku is lime green

      same as my hair…I think I’m supposed to be kind and studious.So basically I’m kind of a cross between Mercury and Neptune. soawesome1 iloveit1

      In Madoka or in magical girl anime in general because it’s usually the best friend/ closest to the main (usually blue) that I would say would be the “second strongest” but also there is usually a magical girl if you have the classic group of 3 or 5 that would be noted as the strong one or the tough one for example- Sailor Jupiter, Cure Sunny, Cure March, Love Angel Daisy, etc. (funny how the tough type is usually green or orange) but in Madoka it’s a lot more complicated than that (because the nature of the show everything is more complicated than it seems) I would actually argue that Homura is the strongest in Madoka Magica after the events in Rebellion. Without Rebellion I would say Madoka herself would be consider the most powerful.

      And Wisper lol wut?

      I don’t know which is the stronger Angel Daisy or Angel Salvia.But then Salvia would be what

      Tv Tropes calls the Lone Ranger of the group. I think Pluto was also meant to be the same thing

      once Minako went from being Sailor V to Sailor Venus.Actually Sailor Pluto does make a better

      Lone Ranger because of the fact she’s all by herself.

      I still don’t quite understand why Kyubey would choose Sayaka other than the fact she was a MG

      in all her past incarnations(does he have contact with all his past selves?). I mean she’s pretty

      unstable in the final time line.

      BTW: Not always blue but one of the group is always the logical and reasonable one like Ami.

      Happiness Charge Precure

      Cure Lovely, Cure Princess, Cure Honey, and Cure Fortune

      Go! Princess Precure (this is one is one going and will probably will have more Cures later on)

      Cure Flora, Cure Mermaid, Cure Twinkle

      Note!- Each series has a movie that goes with it along with the Precure All Star movies ( all the Cures getting together (and in one movie a new cure appears) )

      Cure Echo

      Sorry this guide isn’t that great but hopefully it should help at least in the order of things though you don’t need to watch in order (I started at Smile)

      As far as the series goes it is a very traditional take on the magical girl genre and it different aims at a all ages so if you’re looking for a genre breaker like Madoka, Yuki Yuna, ect this isn’t the series for you though it has moments of great fight, fist to fist combat but that’s usually not the case (especially when you get further into the franchise) though I honestly haven’t seen passed Doki Doki Precure so I can’t really speak for those. If anything it’s something Sailor Moon, Mew Mew , ect fans will enjoy more as it’s more along those lines (and the Cure’s are made by Toei Animation).

      I hope this helps those interested! If anyone needs/ wants more details let me know! kiyonesmile1

      Yes.thanks a lot Snow.(typing this as I am wearing my Sailor Uranus tee. iloveit1 )

      They’re not all connected are they? I mean you don’t have to watch the original Pretty Cure

      if you want to watch one of the other series first.

      Since I a going to watch Revolutionary Girl Utena tonight I was wondering if we might not get some more Utena/Anthy pics here? soawesome1

      No they are not connected. I have not seen all of them myself. The only time it connects is the All Stars movies but it’s not a must to watch and them all and in order.

      I’m actually going to start Utena myself so yes~! Here are some Utena x Anthy ^^

      Do you have the entire series? I’ve only have the Student Council Saga.

      Episode 8 is the one with the elephants! iloveit1

      And if you’re into dubs as I noted in my Dubs And Subs Monday thread today,nobody seems to be able to pronounce Utena’s name right.

      Also thanks for the info on Pretty Cure,so it’s pretty much like Digimon then,except the first two seasons of Digimon are connected while the others take place in alternate realities.

      Utakata in July,but this month I’m taking a break from adding to my MG collection and

      instead going Old Skool with Cat’s EyeSeason 1. At least I hope that Utakata is still around in July(it should but you never know).

      Yes! It’s not a magical girl show but it certainly is good (one of my personal favs actually) of course not everyone has the same taste but I say give it a try if you have the time ^^

      *note- in a way it is a Sword Art Online spinoff but you don’t really need to watch it in order to understand the story (though it does help as far as understanding the little things better)

      Well I shall have to see how much room I got left after I get everything I want to add to my collection.

      Also found this! From tumblr (grow-plants-not-hate)

      The signs as Madoka Magica characters

      Madoka Kaname: Cancer, Pisces

      Sayaka Miki: Capricorn, Leo

      Mami Tomoe: Libra, Sagittarius

      Kyubey: Scorpio, Gemini

      Homura Akemi: Virgo, Taurus

      Kyōko Saukura: Aries, Aquarius

      Also this! From tumblr (precious-haise)

      The Signs as Magical Girls

      Aries – Sakura (Card Captor Sakura)

      Taurus – Mew Ichigo (Tokyo Mew Mew)

      Gemini – Utena Tenjou (Revolutionary Girl Utena)

      Cancer – Sailor Moon (Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon)

      Leo – Lucia Nanami (Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch)

      Virgo – Madoka Kaname (Puella Magi Madoka Magica)

      Libra – Mitsuki Kouyama/Full Moon (Full Moon o Sagashite)

      Scorpio – Honoka Yukishiro/Cure White (PreCure)

      Sagittarius – Illysaviel zon Einzbern (Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya)

      Capricorn – Amu Hinamori (Shugo Chara)

      Aquarius – Karin Hanazono (Kamichama Karin)

      Pisces – Ryuuko Matoi (Kill la Kill)

      So that means I’m Kyubey…

      but I’m also Utena! YEEESSS~~~

      I’m Madoka and Ryuuko.(Actually I’m technically Sailor Neptune since she actually is a Pisces.)

      I wonder what signs my favorite DARK Magic Girls would represent such as Princess Kraehe,

      Yui and Ai Enma?

      Now that I watched the sub of Madoka episode 2 Mami and Homura are even more soawesome1 soawesome1 soawesome1 ! Pretty much glad now that I put them(and Kyoko)in my

      top 2.I found it especially ironic watching Homura’s response to Madoka’s question as to the wish she made when she became a Magic Girl.

      Most Awesome Quote: ” I would never die in such an uncool manner in front of two who are

      to become my junior Magic Girls.”

      Aries makes sense for Sailor Mars since…well she’s Sailor ‘freakin’ Mars! 😆 😆

      I think the wiki for Madoka might have the zodaic signs for the main characters(don’t know).

      It be also interesting if the seiyuus and V.A.s had similiar signs.

      Any way tonight I watch Pretear dubbed for the first time.

      And only a week before I send in my order for Utakata.

      I looked up the Madoka wiki after logging out on Monday but they didn’t have the rest of the girls’ birthdates unfortunately.

      Luci Christian’s Himeno sounds like her Duck.

      Also I just have to share this! Sayaka’s theme is already one of my favorite OST’s but this just makes it all the more better in my opinion. It’s simply beautiful~

      [BBvideo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_AHMNme4lo[/BBvideo]

      So your is guys favorite magical girl OST? You can post more than one of course ^^

      Sayaka should get something awesome just because of what the poor girl has gone through.

      I’m going to have to look up Mermaid Melody because I have a feeling that a show that features mermaids has to have more than one Pisces in it.

      Well if I can’t find enough Pisces to fill out my Team Pisces I might try the Blood Type and see

      if I can find enough O +s.

      her past lives as a magic girl and with Homura’s help tries to avoid her fate, but Kyubey is just as

      clever and will try anything to force her to make the Contract.

      2.Puella Magi Homura Tamura:This manga series highlights the sillier side of our favorite

The villains from Magical girl shows are sometimes space invaders but the main protagonists themselves I don’t think so.

      Yes the Sailor Senshi are from space in their previous lives and were reborn on Earth. and you said recent so I don’t mention Sailor Moon though the reboot I guess makes it recent. lol

      I thought Rei from Vividred was from another dimension,at least that’s the way I understand

      things.Any way I encourage anyone who hasn’t seen it to go and watch Vividred it’s from the same folk who gave us Puella Magi Madoka Magica aka Ani-Plex.The only problem is that

      it jumps to the first episode on the disc right away so you are going to have to press menu to get to the main menu.Other than that great fun!

      So I’ve just started watching a anime called Senki Zesshou Symphogear and just watching the first couple of episodes it really surprised me as it’s darker than I expected. I can’t really say I recommend it yet as I’ve only seen up to episode 3 but I’m really enjoying it so far. It’s a interesting twist and is debatable if it belongs in the magical girl genre but I think it does. I think it has something for everyone as it has Mecha like action fighting, plently of songs and music ( Nana Mizuki sings a lot <3 ) , and of course the magical transformations and interesting story. Also did I mention Nana Mizuki? lol Also Aoi Yuki who voice none other than the lovely goddess and hope itself Madoka Kaname voices the main character and she also sings a lot.

      I’ll be posting about this again as it currently has 2 complete season and a 3rd ongoing one and of course I have to post some pictures!

      And yeah i know. I absolutely love the first op and end to the first season ^^

      She also sings the openings in Symphogear as well and sings in character (all the main girls do) im only on episode six so far and it does have its flaws but overall its still pretty good as far as the story goes. Animation wise…its kinda rocky at times but I’m excited for the animation of season 3 iloveit1

      Madoka, even Moemura makes sense…Sayaka and Kyoko would more likely want to lick the bowl.

      (And knowing Kyoko she’d not stop licking it but carry it around with her all day long! 😆 😆 )

      How is Kampfer? I never can get past the whole guy-turns-into-girl-to -fight- as Kampfer bit.

      Even after reading the Wikia it still sounds a bit weird(he/she is registered in both the boys and girls

      divisions at school..how does that work?)

      It’s been like 7 years since I last saw it so I might remember it wrong. First you should get rid of the notion of reality and school attendance. The thing is that Natsuru cannot control his gender like Ranma. Due to urges or other emotional or spider sense triggers he changes into a guy/girl. It’s not said in the wiki but his excuse is that they are siblings/relatives and there was some exception rule. *shrugs* So him changing sides happens a lot and people simple don’t remember his (Clark Kent) existence.

      Nashetania hime from Rokka’s hero (Rokka no Yuusha)

      Is she a fake or an enemy?

      Opal from Aoi Sekai no Chuushin de

      Too bad this more interesting show of the console anime ilk didn’t made it but the other crap ones.

      That’s the way things work sometimes,unfortunately.

      Enjoy ^^

      thanks. iloveit1

      I really love me some Fate especially( considering her whole background ).

      Speaking of which I’m going to re-watch Nanoha once I’m done with what I have of

      Cat’s Eye.

      Also got Utakata yesterday so will watch that when I’m done with Humanity Has Declined.

      now if we can only get a group pic of Fate,Homura and Princess Kraehe…

      Only two episodes left of Princess Tutu and who knew that a series revolving around the ballet

      could be soawesome1 ?

      I know right? I think Tutu fits in the “dark magical girl” category though it’s not as…extreme as most in that same category. Since we are on the subject I see your looking for new shows to add mitsuki and I think you would really like Symphogear. Even if you don’t buy it (since 3 seasons and it’s ongoing) It’s… magical girl/mecha/action/sci-fi/idol. The best way i could describe it is Madoka/Vividred Operation/Love Live/Code Geass had a child. XD i’m about to finish season 1 myself and though there are a little bit of flaws it’s still good show that I think is under rated and overshadowed which is sad because it takes interesting genres and makes it pretty unique idol/magical girl/sci-fi? hell ya! lol not to mention it has some famous VA’s and Pop stars singing on a regular basis. I was wary on it on first but I think I can at least recommend season 1. ^^ and also

      Voice Actress joke blush1 lol poor homura

      Btw mitsuki I also notice your going to consider Yuri Kuma? That’s great! mmhmm1 yay!

      Yeppers. I came across the wikia and looked good.

      Now if only someone would do an ecchi magic girl series featuring vampire loli singing idols who

      fight zombies…or hasn’t anyone thought of that before? 😆 😆

      btw:on the non-magic girl front I’m waiting for my order for the Girls Und Panzer OVAs to come in from Right Stuf though it might take awhile since I also ordered the Puella Magi Homura Tamura

      manga along with it. iloveit1

      Nice! I’m waiting for that and Homura’s Revenge to be available in bookstores. ^_^

      Yeah that be a good idea, except I don’t drive and the local B & N is some 45 miles away in Spokane.

      Is This A Zombie? also has your daily recommended dose of ninja vampire girls from what I understand.

      Dance in The Vampire Bund is one of those that I have been on the fence about.

      And in two weeks I will be watching Wedding Peach dub for the first time(watching Girls Und Panzer sub this coming Monday).I want to be sure to watch one of the episodes that has Potamos in it.

      So i actually found and read the first book of Homura’s Revenge yesterday. For the most part i have mix feelings about it especially at the start but the cliffhanger ending made it good overall. Some of the parts how ever seemed more like fan-art/ fan-fiction but thats alright i suppose. ^^; its basically a different take one the original seires. I recommend reading Madoka magica- The different story first though especially if you want something from different points of views. Also its a different timeline.

      And goooood luck with the Wedding Peach dub. For the most part its fine and i dunno what her voice sounds like in the jap version (never really seen the japanese sub) but her voice in the dub…takes some getting used to…like ya know? XD (pun is indeed intended)

      I’ve only seen the Japanese version of Wedding Peach so I’m coming from the other end of things.

      I think the weird thing will be hearing someone other than Yukana doing Yuri/Lily.She has such a natural soft voice(just listen to her doing Tessa on Full Metal Panic).

      Well,there are a lot of Madoka manga out there including the ones not centered around the main characters.It’s like Eva in that way.I chose Puella Magi Homura Tamura because it’s more light hearted and also has Homura’s name in the title. soawesome1 iloveit1

      I don’t know if I’ll be around next week since we have company coming from New Jersey.

      I’m not surprised.In the past it seemed everything referenced Sailor Moon and now

      Puella Magi Madoka Magica has become the must show to copy or reference.

      SnowQueen
      Member
      Well the ones I can think of on the top of my head I don’t believe are currently running but the ones I can think of are…

      Winx Club- This one is really “girly” but it still has it’s cool moments through all the friendship and glitter (the witches a.k.a the villains are pretty badass and I honestly favor them more then the heroes lol) . The first couple of the seasons(?) are good but then after a while it just gets to much to the points the transformations and forms are just a eyesore to me to be honestly but this is my personal opinion. But the first couple of season I can recommend.

      W.I.T.C.H-

      I know this one isn’t current but it’s still a good magical girl show. I’m going off memory here and I haven’t seen/read it in a loooong time. It’s pretty traditional as far as I remember but the main leader isn’t your girly goody two shoes type. She’s pretty much a low key tomboy if I remember right and the other characters are pretty interesting and if nothing else they make the show shine. So anything the cast is what makes this show and I honestly I don’t remember the plot much and I read the books vs watching the show.

      there is another I can think of but I haven’t seen it. I believe its a parody of magical girls and I do want to watch it when I get the chance.

      Star vs The Forces of Evil – can’t write much cause I haven’t seen it.

      One more…

      Steven Universe lol sorrynotsorry

      But seriously though it has magic,fusions (transformations), good action, great cast, meaningful and heartfelt moments, story, and Steven! XD

      Symphogear qt1 LOL sorry. It’s anime anyway. but it has all of those things you mention though and Maria is American ( i think) so does that count?

      IIRC W.I.T.C.H. was actually based off of a Italian comic book though the Disney Company did the

      animated version.

      I watched episode 29 of WEDDING PEACH yesterday and as I said elsewhere, I didn’t think it was too bad.OTOH I still perfer the Japanese version. Yeah I needs me some Yukana for Yui/Angel Lily.

      And my copy of volume 1 of PUELLA MAGI HOMURA TOMURA finally arrived along with GIRLS UND PANZER OVAs. It had me really ROFL when I went through it. My favorite line of dialogue was on

      the bottom of page 13:

      Madoka: Who are you anyway?

      Homura(very pissed):DO YOU GET RESET EVERY FEW MINUTES OR SOMETHING?!

      😆 :lol

      And we won’t even mention Mami-World except that Darjeeling from GIRLS UND PANZER might be at home there! iloveit1

      Madoka is Tai, from the first Digimon Adventure

      The goggles are the signature item in the Digimon series, which gets me wondering, what is the signature thing in magical girl series?

      I recognized the main outfit. That’s about it. ^^; and probably because i was to busy obsessed with Sailor Moon probably lol

      And are you talking about in general or specific because i would say either yhe transformation items or there weapons such as wands ect would be considered signature Examples-

      Like Madoka i would say the Soul Gems are the most recognizable items

      Sailor Moon i would say her first wand (or any of her wands really but especially the first couple) or the Cresent shape moon on her forhead

      Symphogear probaby the way they transform (by song)

      The Goggle Girl Brigade! 😆 😆 😆 😆

      Wedding Peach they each have a separate item belonging to the St.Something Four.

      This brings up a point, usually in MG anime, magical girls always have hair and outfit as it is. Clothes almost don’t get torn, and hair is usually stays in shape. Some shows do make it realistic, but not a lot .

      wait, a thought, do most magical girls have ribbons on their back? Is that their signature?
      SnowQueen
      Member
      Most magical girl outfits traditionally have ribbions on them not always on there backs though. Precure and Sailor Moon (both are by Toei animation also) do that would be the signature especially for sailor moon but more modern magical girl shows are kinda going away from that at least from what ive noticed.
      I don’t think they used them in Vividred I was going to mention Puella Magi Madoka Magica

      but then remembered that Madoka has ribbons.

      btw: and speaking of Vividred they turn the whole cute-animal-mascot trope on it’s head

      since in this case it’s actually Akane’s grandfather’s soul in a animal plushie!( you really have to watch the show to see what I mean)

      Yukinojo

      Yeah, but frilly skirts seem to continuing even thoughtout the years, but that might be just the signature for young girls in anime.
      In Cardcaptor Sakura it’s because Tomoyo likes to see Sakura wearing stuff like that. She thinks she looks cute that way.

      So one week away on Thursday from Utakata.

      Tsunomi Kabutohara

      Yeah this is definitely another longish thread so it was so easy to forget you had already posted those pics.

      I think I’d watch it just for Moyo.

      Anyways I’m still looking for a substitute for Yuki Yunna Is A Hero for December just in case

      Nice fyeah1 let me know what you think. If its really good i might buy it myself (found it at a local video store for not to bad of a price) but only if its really good. I know its a dark magical girl series but thats pretty much all i know about it. Well that and how it ends because i read about it on wiki. Kiyofacepalm1 lol but i hope you enjoy it Mitsuki!

      Also im sorry i forgot about promising to make a Madoka Manga list!! dawohki1 i will do that when I can >-<

      That’s ok.

      btw: Puella Magi Homura Tamura had me really ROFL on every page. It’s that hysterical!

      And yes, I shall tell you what I thought of Utakata when I get the chance.

      oh…also I will be re-starting Nanoha when I am done with what I have of Cat’s Eye.

      Well Snow Queen all I can say after the first episode of Utakata is simply:WOW!!

      just…WOW!!!!!

      That was really soawesome1 soawesome1 soawesome1 soawesome1 !

      If the rest of the show keeps up like episode 1 it’ll be a definite match for Puella Magi Madoka Magica. If you love Madoka you’ll definitely love Utakata is all I have to say so far.

      The ending of episode 1 is especially bittersweet as Manatsu kisses Ichika on the forehead when she’s sleeping and says:”I’m Sorry!” in Japanese knowing what’s up ahead.

      btw: It’s sub only.

      Just finished watching Yuki Yuna, and what I’m wondering is, why is Yuna the only one getting the hair change and none of the other characters?

      SnowQueen
      Member
      I actually didn’t really notice that much to be honest till just now ^__^; i dont know why other than because shes the main character and the main character especially in a magical girl anime always has more special power-ups and more to there transforms and ect. Thats the only answer i have. Togo and Fu have slightly different hair styles sure but yeah Yuna has a totally different hair style/color and length and like i said the only reason i can come up with is that the main girl always gets more to stand out from the rest. Lol
      I was going to say that as well.

      btw: I noticed in the original Sailor Moon anime they give Naru a lot more to do, especially the arc with Nephrite.

      And now I wanna Naru magical girl series so poor Naru can be a Sailor Scout too! soawesome1 😆

      I’m now thinking of getting Umi Monogtari instead of Yuki Yunna for December because

      it’s only $29.99.

      It’s about a couple of girls from the sea who come to land after retrieving a bracelet that falls into the water to search for the owner and then the three of them have to unite to fight off an evil that one of the sea girls unwittingly releases.

      Anyone seen it?

      SnowQueen
      Member
      I haven’t even heard of it but I looked it up and I think it’s definitely something I want to watch. the animation looks really well done and the story sounds good as well. ^^

      and yeah I don’t think Naru was in the manga or crystal very much. I think it would be a cute idea if there was a little side story where she got hold of Usagi’s brooch somehow and transforms into Sailor Moon herself ^^;

      She’d make an soawesome1 Sailor Scout! Can’t wait for episode 23 tonight to see her stand up for

      Nephrite.

      And did some looking up and the name of the woman in black that keeps watching Manatsu and

      Ichika in Utakata is Saya. She’s the latter’s neighbor and is supposedly a fashion designer( thus her elegant look) but according to the Wiki she’s also responsible for manipulating the circumstances that force Ichika to use the Djinn. She’s pretty cool.

      Too bad we don’t get to see Naru become a Sailor Scout like her best friend as that would’ve been

      soawesome1 !

      Though from what I read in episode 00 of the live action series (PGSM) Naru,Usagi and their other friends cosplay as Sailor Scouts(before Usagi becomes Sailor Moon for real).

      After episode 25 of SM I have come to 2 conclusions: 1. Jupiter is the coolest Senshi(at least among the Inners) and 2. We really need to see Makoto as herself fight Madoka from KOR as

      that would be soawesome1 !

      Love Live x Precure

      and finally

      Madoka as Sakura

      sorry they we’re almost all Madoka blush1

      and sorry I couldn’t find any pictures of those two together at least I don’t think so I haven’t seen either. So instead here are a couple of pictures from each series ^^ sorry about that.

      soawesome1 soawesome1 iloveit1

      Thanks again Snow, the pics of Madoka were great even though I’d love to see Fate vs. Homura,still

      lotta fun.

      Enjoyed the Kaleido Star and Aria images as well, though I wish we could get Alicia and

      Layla together just because Ohara Sayka plays both. I think Alicia is a kinder and gentler version of

      Layla actually.

      Goddess Madoka and Devil Homura FTW! (Although Homura-chan’s far from my idea of a devil,

      she should be a Goddess like Madoka…)

      Now if all of them became Goddesses like Madoka here is what they be the patron Goddesses of:

      Madoka: Goddess of Love and Hope

      Homura: Goddess of Time and Healing

      Mami: Goddess of Hearth and Home

      Sayaka: Goddess of Water and Change

      Kyoko : Goddess of War and Harvest

      (that last one sounds odd though)

      Kyubey would be the Devil or else their buttmonkey..whichever makes more sense.

      For those of you who don’t know there was a event called Madogatari which celebrated Shaft’s 40th anniversary and there was news of a Madoka Concept Movie. Now I don’t have to many details but what I’ve seen off tumblr, ANN, and Crunchyroll there’s a image of Madoka in a ballet outfit. There was no announcements of a fourth movie (there was a April fools trailer for one last year though) or a new anime. I dunno if the movie will ever be shown outside the event or not. It’s pretty much a waiting game now. Here are some images however for the event ^^ Oh! Also there is lots of fake news around so be wary. If anyone notices what I’m saying is also fake now or in the future please let me know! >_<

      Omigosh! Never thought I would see this but someone made a crossover picture of Symphogear and Love Live which I’m sure you all know by now and my two biggest fandoms right now so I’m so happy! Thank you tumblr!!

      My only thing is that I would switch Nozomi and and Nico around more so on looks but otherwise everyone is pretty spot on. especially Umi, Maki, and Honoka!

      EDIT-

      Rin as Kanade and Kotori as Serena! ^_^

      (EDIT AGAIN LOL)

      I want to see Eli as Carol or Fine soooo bad *-* <3

      Art found on Ringozuki at tumblr~

      I wonder if there might be some more Madoka since it continues to be so popular. Though

      the idea of Madoka in a ballet tutu made me think of Kyubey trying to make a contract with

      Duck and Rue from Princess Tutu. 😆

      I’m personally waiting for March to come and not just because of my birthday but also because

      Wizard Barristers finally is getting released then.

      IIRC there’s a whole series of all the girls in kimonos. They’re pretty expensive though. I’ve seen them

      at Rightstuf.

      And I will be ordering two magical girl series on Monday:Umi Monogatari and

      Magical Witch Puni-Chan. Yeah….a series about a psychopathic magic girl! 😆

      I know I might regret it, but after reading so much about it I just have to see MWP-C.

      So kill me now. 😆

      P.S. joking…I’m pretty comfortable with my decision here.

      Vadrr, don’t scare the youngling and promote your dark side or Kyoko Koreha’s coming for ya! 😈
      😆

      btw: I think it said that the Kyoko and Mami ones were behind on the shipping or something. But if you has the money you can get all five girls in Kimonos: Madoka, Sayaka, Kyoko,Mami and of course

      the Great One Herself: Homura.

      The Madoka concept movie I mentioned before IS linked to a new Madoka project! I saw it ( in very low quality on tumblr) and im not really sure its a new movie or a new series that this concept movie is linked to but i also found this official art ( on tumblr)

      It seems like the main focus is on Madoka, Mami, and Homura (so far at least)

      Also apparently from what I read Mami is suppose to be “A Goddess of War” ? And also found this image also on tumblr of a new outfit of madoka’s possibly (?)

      Thats about all i have right now. Will post more when more comes out. Tenchismile

      I saw this and just had to share XD

      AFAIG: The first thought I had after looking at the artwork for the new Madoka project was:

      Princess Tutu…Kyubey made a pact with Princess Tutu! 😆

      I would say Kyoko would fit more as a Goddess of War…but then again in Greek Mythology Athena was not only the Goddess of Wisdom but also of Battle(never piss her off as she could get really

      really angry!)

      We still need a Codename Sailor V anime though. Minako so needs her own prequel series to be an anime now.

      And from what I understand we won’t know what the new Madoka project is until it’s

      revealed in Newtype next month.

      Personally I’m kinda hoping for a live action version like PGSM.

      I think this is what was alluded too at the end of the last movie, the eventual fight between Homura and Mami since Madoka will most likely not want to fight Homura

      Thats probably spot on. Wonder what Sayaka, Kyoko, and Nagisa will do when that time comes because damn Mami looked really pissed

      (Thank you tumblr for the adorable gif ^_^;)

      Hmmm….so a Magical Girl Civil War?

      I would see Sayaka siding with Mami since she treated her and Madoka like they were her younger sisters. Nagisa I don’t know where she’d land since I haven’t seen the movies or read the manga

      based on them.

      Kyoko would be the wild card. Though I think she might side with Homura.

      I think she wouldn’t tolerate Mami being the leader even if Madoka was around. I also think her

      personality clashes the most with Mami’s.

      Sounds good.

      Is that a Zombie is more likely to show a Magic Girl civil war. But I kind of doubt anyone else would do such a show. That is if we discount Sailor Moon vs Galaxia.

      Unfortunately, anime-wise, we don’t get to see that since I heard Is this a Zombie? didn’t do so well in it’s second season. I read a little of the novels and there might have been a civil war of MG’s, but most of the volumes are not translated, so I don’t know.

      I would still love a live action Madoka especially after the website Honey’s Anime

      put it at #10 of the anime they most would love to see be done live action. They did point out that

      a group of Idols even did a commercial in Japan dressed as the girls from Madoka.

      PGSM proved that a live action Magic Girl series can be done without compromising the

      original material any( ok, we shall all forget about Sailor Luna! but aside from that the entire

      thing was pretty much… soawesome1 )so why not Madoka ?

      I guess any further word on whatever the new project is shall have to wait for Newtype to come out

      next month when the announcement is supposed to be made.

      If they did do a Madoka live action movie it would be heavy on the cgi, but I don’t think it would suit it. The Madoka style is backgrounds and the characters being natural and abstract at the same time.

      Good points!

      There are actually 4 live action ads made for the 3rd anime movie starring Nogizaka46 (AKB48’s rival sister group)

      Shoot! It’s blocked!

      Any ways I think any Magic Girl live action show or movie would have at least some CGI today.

      Still waiting for Umi Monogatari and Magic Witch Puni-Chan to get here. Probably

      going to be after Christmas because of all the crush of packages.

      Well, for CGI to be successful the budget might be an issue. I dunno if the series has the same value in the producer’s or investor’s eyes like say GITS or Appleseed.

      I really wish that there was a live action Madoka just to see how it compare with

      Nice upload and composition but no merit for plagiarizing wikipedia without any own research.

      For example:

      At least know Faust is based on the Book of Job in the Bible.

      Also note Madoka does the reverse to Jesus’s forsaking Godhood to save the world.

      Mami represents the stereotypical magical girl heroine which is reflected in her name Tomoe (friend and blessing)

      etc.

      😆

      For some reason I’ve never been invited there. 😉

      I admit the only country on Earth I don’t know anything about is
      The Unknown

      I have absolutely no knowledge about the Unknown.

      People fear the Unknown.

      For some fear of the Unknown reaches to their deepest core. This can call forth violence. The fear is so profound there’s no creature on Earth which doesn’t know about it.

      Others say it’s Pandora’s secret trump card.

      There are many other rumors.

      A widespread one among men is “Your Wife, the Unknown Being.”

      There’s speculation women originally came from the Unknown. Their origin was passed through the ages and survived as the proverb.

      Men point to the fact they still don’t understand women.

      Some dare to venture into the Unknown. However, since we haven’t heard anything back from the explorers and still nothing is known yet we can only surmise the worse.

      107 facts of Sailor Moon

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVQXyLcTn_c” class=”bbcode_url”>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVQXyLcTn_c

      too long to put in the thread

      I think the link with Faust for PMMM is pretty well known by now. I didn’t know about

      the link to Job until now.

      Umi Monogatari appears to be playing on a variation of the Pandora’s Box story from Greek

      Mythology: Urin accidentally out of curiosity unleases Evil.

      107 facts about Sailor Moon? I wonder how much they took from the Sailor Moon

      Wiki and other sources. Also is this just the anime or does it include the manga, live action series

      and musicals as well?

      Like before looks very much like a gathering of information only. If it were a report they should be in the attachments. There are little original research whether it’s their own or not dunno. No report “written” itself, no analysis, no explanations of the information, no conclusions just presentation of official “facts”.

      @.@ way too many basics (attachment information) I don’t need to know…

      Spoor: “Kufadis, won’t you ever learn? Be concise!”

      Like a human resource or head hunter or spy or assassine I don’t look at the resume, I wanna know things you can’t get without effort. => “So tell me what I don’t know.” is the rule!

      Well, I don’t care about changes/modifications the american or others did. The original (Japanese) version is what’s important. I only care when buying and want to know if I get it all or not.

      critics or corrections or improvements
      #13 Slang is wrong. It’s a legitimate combo name Nyan-ko = catgirl/female cat because suffix -ko is added to names for girls. It’s elementary! see #18 or note Mamoru calls Usagi Usako.

      #16 Because it’s a gender specific job term and not Sailor Crystal restricted. Like in “Rokka no Yuusha” where women are magic user and men are skill users despite both receiving their “power” from the same source.

      #18 Their powers are not from mythology but from the planets:

      Pluto’s power of time is because of the planets long orbital period. Time is nothing to it.

      Saturn power of destruction is because like Jupiter it contributes to destroying comets, hence, it has a ring.

      #19 Silence Glaive is a stylized Naginata not a scythe. The kind used by women is called ko-naginata. Notice the ko! see #13

      #23 0091 is from a certain robot show ;)

      #24 Rabbit symbols are vary popular among girls & house wives so it’s not necessarily because of Usagi

      #25 …

      #26 Same applies to other shows e.g. Aquarion etc.

      #28 & #29 It’s said in the dialogues if you actually listen… *shrugs*

      #36 name + suffix -maru (for boat) very common naming scheme

      #41 Huh? Didn’t Saturn & Pluto do, too.

      #42 military commander’s (fighter) wing colors (all squadron colors)

      #45 R comes from Japanese car nuts where cars are classified with alphabets

      #47 Thank Takuchi’s common sense! 😆

      #52 Thank Takuchi’s common sense! 😆

      #56 Because it’s a weapon or tool; the others aren’t but decorations. Well, except Jupiter’s lightning rod.

      #58 is the same as #57

      #62 I think she’s just a woman like any other who likes jewelry

      #63 see Gundam color scheme reason. Gundam Nobel *caugh*

      #67 You realize that now? 😆

      #70 Like Antaeus, he’s weak and can only be saved by a goddess of life (Gaia) or here love.

      #78 Because she lives unhealthy! 😆

      #80 Who would have guessed seeing how he leads the others.

      #82 Sailor Mouse did, too, if I remember right.

      #89 Necessary for writing those incantation/magic paper pieces in a traditional way.

      #94 It appears to be common to nickname the boss (name) “P” (honorifics); for example AKB48’s boss is Yasushi Akimoto=Aki-P

      Therefore or perhaps similary, Pluto is being contacted via “Luna-P” by Chibiusa who calls her “Puu”.

      #96 And which one exactly?

      In the same fashion…from the top of my head facts that are missing and are no brainers…unimportant but people care about:

    • “Sailor Scouts” misnomen for Sailor Senshi = Sailor Warriors (sensou=war) alternatively Sailor Soldier

    • The sailor senshi like western fashion clothing more than Japanese! Ever seen them wearing kimonos?
    • The sailor senshi never celebrated Tanabata or any other Japanese specific festives other than new year
    • Michiru is versed in Eurpean lady etiquette (drinking western tea cup) not Japanese (flower arranging)
    • Therefore, Sailor Moon isn’t very Japanese. 😯 😆
    • All the sailor senshis’ power tools are female accessoirs! Ha!
    • The sailor senshis’ powers upgrade every season.
    • The sailor senshi’s school uniform colors change with grade.
    • Sailor Moon/Usagi does job transformation a la Cutey Honey only in the first season.
    • Usagi’s friends and family rarly show up after Sailor R or Sailor S, especially the guys
    • Sailor Tin Nyanko’s uniform is Catwoman’s
    • Ep.110/111 the marine cathedral is drawn after the La Sagrada Familia in Spain.
    • etc.
    • the real deal … nerdy facts that nobody cares about 😆

    • As Magic Girl (Mahou Shojo) written in Japanese has ties to Witch (Majo) the cats serving as companions are born from western image.

    • All youma names are derivates or the same as their Japanese object name.
    • All the sailor senshis’ poses are 80’s idol poses! They are no longer in use (since 2000) or rather it would be embarrasing for contemporary idols.
    • The “holy grail” appears in the similar fashion as in “Knights of the Round Table” (1958).
    • In one episode where they go through the time gate and fight in some space is reminiscent to one from “Saint Saya” where (Saint ?) fights against a god within his created dimension
    • A bunch of soundtracks are descended from “Mamono Hunter Yohko”.
    • Black Moon is a (historic) stereotypical Japanese organization’s name who works against the government (Moon Crystal Kingdom)
    • Dark Queen Nehellenia uses a mirror (Black Mirror) which reflects her heart. This originates from the bible Proverbs 27:19.
    • Galaxia uses the mirror as avatar to speak to Nehellenia like the mirror and the witch in “Snow White”. The mirror promised her eternal beauty.
    • The sailor senshi only know western folklore as shown in ep.108.
    • An and Eiru’s clothing seems to have been inspired by middle-east or Osmanian fashion in Sailor Moon R. So is Tuxedo Kamen’s.
    • Not just the names of Eudial’s Fire buster I & II are a but also their design is fashioned like those from “Ghost Busters”.
    • The William Shatner connection!
    • etc.
    • If you want to have a look at how to write lots over Sailor Moon collected information but still just on the surface read

      “The Incredible Untold Story of Sailor Moon” by Theodore Jefferson

      Larissa Kayne: “The book that will be the definitive history of Sailor Moon in the United States”

    It seems an audiobook for “The Incredible Untold Story of Sailor Moon” is in the works.

    No it doesn’t. Don’t forget I’m there volunteering on Mondays.

    A lot of those you mentioned don’t seem to be terribly important or else totally wrong.

    But IIRC doesn’t Usagi’s mom show up in SuperS?

    I think the fact that the girls are more Western than Japanese in a lot of things might have to do with

    the fact that they’re living in a more Western orientated Japan than in the past. And AFAIG with

    Michiru: as a concert classical musician who travels around the world, it makes sense that she

    be into more Western hobbies.

    I didn’t know that about the school colors though.

    It’s interesting to note how the same production people also worked on Wedding Peach,

    which is why the two share similarities. I keep wondering if they played any pranks on

    Mitsuishi Kotono when she showed up for her first day of playing Potamos on WP.

    Especially the cast.

    That be something I always would love to ask her if I ever met her at a con.

    By rarely show up I mean you don’t see them in every episode like before. And yes nobody cares. 😆

    But then that’s I why I showed them for fun as well as how better it could be. It’s ultimately just a mind game otherwise it would turn out like the book if more serious.

    But as shown these obvious simple things the video makers didn’t mention indicating they weren’t watching it nor didn’t they come up with the facts themselves. If they did they would have known or noticed.

    Edit:

    Btw. there’s “Sailor Moon Reflections – The Inside Story of the Original Recordings of the English Version of Sailor Moon”.

    And now that there maybe a Tenth Planet beyond Pluto perhaps Naru gets to be a Sailor Senshi

    after all!….we can only hope! iloveit1

    Puni-chan is so much warped fun, it needs to be seen. She goes from being a sweet, loveable

    Well, I honestly didn’t know there was a attempt at an American Sailor Moon, kinda glad that never took off. I wish though that they could have kept sailor moon with a gun, that would have made the show more fun to watch on Saturdays, a 90’s magical girl that fires a gun.

    Both figures are nice you can’t really go wrong. badass1

    The white one she wears in the openings to the movies (the first two) and the black one she wears in Rebellion its her pre-witch form i personal like the black dress version more mainly because i like the dress style more and the pose she does. But its totally up to you ^^ like i said both look good! And they are a good price to bad i can’t buy things online ^_^: ;A;

    I’ve been rewatching one of my favorite series, Tekkaman Blade, which shares some DNA with Tenchi Universe. Also, it is a rebooted version of the Tatsunoko superhero series Tekkaman: the Space Knight. At episode 22, the audience finally sees the first female Tekkaman, Rapier, in action. Here is her transformation sequence, which is not much different than her older brother’s.

    Although Tekkaman Blade is a blatantly shonen series, does Tekkaman Rapier count as a “magical girl”? <.<

    It would depend on your definition of ‘Magical Girl’ . I’ve seen titles listed over at the

    Magical Girl Wikia like Ikki-tousen that some might argue aren’t actually Magical Girl.

    So I think it all depends.

    Well the subject of what makes a magical series a magical series is pretty opinionated and the idea of magical girl shows have gotten way more detailed and more “deconstructive” of the years.

    So if someone thinks if it belongs in this thread then its fine for it to be here. Its also fine disagree ( nicely!! ) this thread needs more discussion anyhow lol

    There are one or two shonen shows that i can think of that have magical girl elements but isn’t a magical girl series. None the less it can be talked about here as long as it has some element of course ^.^ and that element is of course opinionated. Just as long as its not inappropriate or obviously not a magical girl show what so ever then its totally fine kiyonesmile1

    And now at the end of the month we finally get the long awaited volume 2 of Puella Magi Homura Tamura Magica manga. about time as I was wondering if we were ever going to see more of our

    favorite Magi girl’s misadventures in space and time.

    The first one was soawesome1 , especially the whole Queen Mami thing. I can’t wait to get volume 2

    that I decided I’ll order it along with the Homura figurine.

    And again if no-one has seen Umi Monogatari pick it up now and watch it. It’s getting good now.

    Nope, because it’s technology and not magic power or coming from one’s soul.

    Otherwise Guyver, Kamen Rider and all other Sentai shows would also be Magical Girls shows.

    Well the Pink Ranger would have to qualify then too.

    You can actually stretch the definition of it too far if you’re not careful.

    And since Valentine’s Day is coming up how about everyone listing their favorite Magic Girl couples?

    My list:

    1. Momoko x Yousuke (Wedding Peach)

    2.Sailor Neptune x Sailor Uranus (Sailor Moon)

    3. Homura x Madoka (Puella Magi Madoka Magica)

    4.Fate x Nanoha (Nanoha)

    5.Marin x Kanon ( Umi Monogatari)

    also Samu x Warin in the same show

    6.Rue x Mythos (Princess Tutu)

    7. Rei x Akane (Vividred)

    Magical Girl Corrector Yui

    Created by Kia Asamiya the creator of Silent Mobius the anime that got me into anime(

    Silent Mobius that is). IIRC in the episode Labyrinth when Yuki and Toohru are talking

    about coffee there’s a scene from a Magic Girl show being played on Toohru’s tv.

    I’m not sure if it’s Corrector Yui or some other show.

    Also in an earlier episode(the one where Katsumi has to get a new apartment after the hotel where she was staying gets thrashed by the Lucifer Hawks) Lebia notices that Katsumi is a big fan of a certain Magic Girl show. Again I’m not certain if it’s Corrector Yui or not.

    If the criteria are a bit lax then there are a bunch (you probably were ignorant to notice):

    Setsuna (Sailor Pluto), Sailor Lead Crow from Sailor Moon

    Shayla-Shayla from El-Hazard

    Lala from Gundam for example

    Urd, her mother and … from Ah My Goddess

    Anthy from Revolutionary Girl Utena

    Well, I did ponder about Vesper from Ah My Goddess but he’s male and I think it should be at least a catgirl that has some skin to show.

    I did ponder about Nariya & Eriya from Vision of Escaflowne but they didn’t have much skin and they didn’t project power outside their body (if I remember right).

    Same for Uruuru & Saraana from Utawarerumono – Itsuwari no Kamen but I’m not sure they are one kind or mixed since they have different skin colors.

    While I never finished it I say it was pretty good. The plot was intresting but also kinda lackluster which is kinda why I stopped about a few episodes in but it does have a shorter version of itself that was made before the full series came to be.

    I’m thinking of giving it another try. at least the shorter version anyway ^^

    Aw!

    She really needs to stop by that cafe where all the Homuras take their break in Homura Tamura-chan.

    I take it the bottom one is when she turns into a devil. I still don’t understand that part. Or were they trying for a balance, since Madoka becomes a Goddess Homura becomes the opposite?

    And does this mean in her next life Homura is reborn as Jun from Devil Lady?

    Agreed Love can be irrational. IDK if I will get around to the movies or not. Right now I just want to get the second half of Homura Tamura.

    Need to see what happens next to poor Homura in her time travel adventures.

    I think Homura is one of those characters that I tend to get too emotional about at times,which is why

    Disagree, that is what she settled to be and what she will and have to do when the time comes

    I think my problem is I get so attached emotionally to my favorite female characters like Homura, that I find it hard to imagine any of them going over to the Dark Side permanently.

    Actually Homura would be the last of Puella Magi who I would expect to end up like that. Considering everything I would expect Sayaka would be the more likely candidate to turn into a Devil. Especially the way she goes all batshit crazy before she dies.

    This opinion is coming from someone who has seen Rebellion. SPOILERS AHEAD

    That being said (and people who even seen the movie disagree on this) but Homura turning out the way she did makes a lot if sense to me and i believe it does fit her character quite well. Now I’m not one of those “HOMURA DID NOTHING WRONG” types because yeah….she did but that doesn’t mean those things were total her fault.

    mitsuki lover wrote:

    Homura is against everything about Madoka’s “law of cycles” and with Madoka a representative of God… so Homura decided to get what she wanted and after suffereing so much for with no end in sight she became the representative of the Devil (the existence know as evil).

    Shes timeloop 100’s and 100’s just to see her goals and what she loved getting destroyed countless amount of times so of course that woukd make someone unhealthy reactions and logic in her case her logic was she became the way she did for love.

    Almael wrote:

    What people do for love isn’t rational.

    Exactly. Need i saw more? Her love become toxic and controlling. She finally got Madoka right where she wanted to and she even claimed she would never let her go again. Unhealthy relationship to the max…but it makes sense for Homura’s character …seeing all the hell she went through just to see Madoka go against it all and live up and rise up to her own ideal and of course Homura dragging her down (literally) was to become a being like the Devil as Madoka is a being like God.

    Now people might get offensive and upset that i claim it makes sense for Homura to have a toxic and VERY unhealthy look on love but considering what kind of world these girls live in….everyone has there damage for sure. Not saying i justify unhealthy relationship what so ever because i don’t at all. Let me be clear. Also i don’t see Homura as The Devil so to speak even though thats what she claims to be. I believe she just taking Madoka’s place is all. Shes just doing it a different way (payback is hell Kyubey) but i don’t see Homura as evil though Sayaka sure thinks so. But the way she did everything now all the girls can live normal and shes the only one with a burden. Does that sound evil to you? I mean she could done things differently yeah of course…

    Anyway this ended up a pretty big rant… wth2

    But a well thought out one. It’s interesting to note that Homura is one of the anime characters that has a listing in both theVillains Wikia and Heroes Wikia. Sayaka also has listings in both.

    Others examples of dual listings are: Yui from Fuushigi Yuugi and Haruhi from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.

    According to the Heroes Wikia Homura is a sample of kuudere. But in her case could it be

    she is also a bit yandere?

    Another interesting note is that Rei from Vivdread Operation is considered a combination clone of Homura and Fate from Nanoha.

    Homura’s action would actually make her what they call an Anti-Villain since in her case they are done to protect Madoka and insure that she has what she wants most: a happy life.

    What’s rather interesting is if you read volume 1 of Puella Magi Homura Tamura one of the stories actually has Mami as the main villainess!

    Ok…I think we beat poor Homura to death here and should give her a rest.

    I’m only going to add that I’ll be sending in my order for my Homura Black Dress Figure and

    vol. 2 of Puella Magi Homura Tamura this week.

    Sailor Moon Crystal Death Buster Hen starts on April 4th!

    New Opening and Ending are already out and i have to say im not wild about the new OP(yet). The sequence and the imagery i love but the song is just….eh. I do like the end song a lot though sung by Neptune and Uranus themselves and they get the whole end to themselves too! iloveit1

    I have high hopes for this arc ( i didnt even bother watching season 2 (i started to but never finished) )as its one of my favorites and i know the manga is very different verses how this arc was in the original anime and might turn old fans away since this is definitely not the same and definitely not child friendly as the original was. (And even that was kinda dark at times) anyhow here are the new songs!

    OP-

    I’m still on the fence about Crystal, though I have to agree with you Snow about the OP and

    ED for the new arc. AFAIG: Neptune and Uranus one of the best anime couples EVER! soawesome1

    (I think I said that before.)

    I sent in my order for the Homura figure and volume 2 of Puella Magi Homura Tamura

    today. I also saw episode 12 of Umi Monogatari yesterday. That was basically the finale but there’s also an extra episode 13 which is the OVA really.

    Again people if you haven’t seen it, you need to.

    Marin ftw! (btw: I can see Kanon and Marin as a couple even though they aren’t. It’s one of the few times where I have watched an anime and realized how natural it would be to do so.)

    No way. She’s closer to goth than steampunk. She would need either a tattoo, goggles, or metal.

    ^ i have that one only its a rubber keychain and it came with her soul gem instead of Kyubey. I just need Mami and Homura and then i’ll have the Meduka crew. Lol

    And i think Homura is more of af “goth” magical girl and Mami i think could pass as a ” steampunk” magical girl.

    Lastly i read the first vol of Puella Magi Homura Tamura last night and i liked it ^o^ thought it was cute. I loved Queen Mami and The Akemi-ya (i think it was called. Something like that) bar. Also the Madoka in the colored pages was the best. (Madoka rapping her questions and singing her problems is the best and i can relate to it XD lol)

    Volume 2 is out now. I ordered it with the Homura Black Dress figure Monday. Can’t wait to get

    them.

    I like the more humorous type of manga when it comes to shows like Madoka since you get to see another side of the characters.

    I’m not aware of any at the moment. The closest ive seen so far would be Space Patrol Luluco. Not really a magical girl show (yet) though it has the potential to possibly be maybe?? ^^; its still a good short series that deserves at least a look at.

    EDIT- Holy crap how did i forget about SAILOR MOON?! tenchiahhhhhh

    Sailor Moon Crystal season 3 starts on April 4th ^^;; as long as you have a basic understanding on whats going on you could probably skip up to it. Its obviously better to watch it in order and not skip anything but as long as you have least seen the original you should be fine.

    Or read the manga. Since it’s basically adopted from the manga.

    Not new but Umi Monogatari and Utakata are both worth taking a look at.

    If anyone wants a series that’s easy to marathon or binge watch then try Shrine of the Morning Mist.

    The episodes are only 15 or so minutes long so you can get through 4-6 easily at a single sitting.

    Again it’s not new but still something that should be checked out.( I don’t know if it’s OOP or not so you might want to check the current status for it.)

    Also even though it’s not a Magical Girl series per se check out Kaleido Star.

    Just guessing.

    Yes, in one or the other form… basically some form of incentive to do something without which you die.

    For example the “soul gem” in “Puella Magi Madoka Magica”, technically different but same principle, used to clean your soul. Slightly different see extreme similarly see Snake Plissken in Escape from L.A.

    In game-esque terms it’s like the “Mod-Soul pill” in Bleach to re-power.

    Another approach is BTooom where you need to obtain weapons to keep fighting/surviving.

    Edit: [continuing]

    In Liar Games it’s money.

    In “No Game No Life” every game is a sort of survival game but the last one maximizes it, even though the anime ignores the rules. Here, you use a gun to shoot and prevent being attacked. However, it uses up energy which can only be regained by hitting certain targets/con-/reverting allies (forgot exactly what).

    There are more interesting manga/anime/novel games I don’t remember right now.

    Are you talking about the pill that Rukia gives Ichigo at the beginning of the series so that he can

    transform into his Soul Reaper form?

    Yep. At least I think so anyway. Been a long time since I’ve seen Bleach blush1

    Same here. I have only one DVD and that’s from the early part of Season 1.

    Any hows I finally got my Homura Figure and vol.2 of the Puella Magi Homura Tamura manga.

    However it was a regular hassle to get them as I had to pay $7.16 extra (really $10) because the PO

    was snooty about the figure ’cause they said: “Toys aren’t media!”….ok…ok…I understand that but

    do you have to be so snooty about it and just give me my package is what I was thinking.

    Any way in vol. 2 of Puell Magi Homura Tamura among other things:

    Madoka sells her soul to Satan.

    Sayaka becomes a badass mecha pilot.

    Homura gets trapped in a picture inset.

    Mami and Homura get trapped in a dimension all to themselves.

    And the return of our favorite all Homura Coffee Shop! soawesome1

    Magic Users Club sounds like fun so I can’t wait to get it.

    btw: I think Shrine of the Morning Mist should actually have been titled in the English language dub: Priestess of the Morning Mist since it’s all about Yuzu really.

    Never thought I’d see this crossover…

    The fact that a real mod of this exists from back in the day brings the whole thing full circle.

    Over a decade old news. If I remember right a 3D conversion existed around 2000 (in another game or so don’t remember which). At the time it was amazing. I know this because I modded then, too. 😆 But the japanese wouldn’t share it.

    Edit: Btw. if they ever uploaded them

    This is the last chance to find them

    has there been a proper Magical Girl RPG? I mean with it’s popularity there has to be at least one in japan

    ” class=”bbcode_url”>Of course.

    There’s at least one for the SNES called “Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon: Another Story” (aka Sailor Moon RPG) which covered everything up to Super S (I think). So the SM franchise ended before 3D games became even common.

    Hence, there was this fan made 3D game I mentioned above. It was amazing and far ahead of its time that I considered impossible for hobby modders to pull it off. It looked more advanced than Half Life 1 but lacked surrounding content; obviously not enough time to fill yet. It offered 3D magic/item selections like today’s games, had transformation etc.

    I haven’t specifically looked beyond so dunno if there are more.

    Edit:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Sailor_Moon_video_games

    Now a day there seems to be a fan site offering rpg games:

    http://sailormoonrpg.com/

    On a side note: All the good japanese stuff fan made at the time were amazing comparable to or better than professional stuff. There were photorealistic 3D stuff for NGE (before Matrix came out). The amazing photo realistic 2D-pixel conversion algorithm of the Princess Maker engine. Remember early SNES used to be around 2-600kB in size while Final Fantasy 4-6 were around 3-4/6 MB including above game.

    He has some really interesting things on that site. There’s even a section for older games called

    “abandoned games” that have a old skool look. Even the Outers get their own RPG! 8-)

    I’m re-watching some Shrine of the Morning Mist dubbed on Monday.

    Any magical catgirls?
    Almael
    Member
    Well, there are lots of cat girls with magic powers but I doubt any can be considered a magical girl e.g. Natsuki Sasahara from Hyper police.

    The reasons are simple for

    – one, a cat girl already has her attire on so there’s no need for transformation.

    -two, a magical girl attire may actually degrade her image.

    -three, likewise a magical girl’s accessory doesn’t look right on a cat girl

    etc.

    so you won’t find many if any.

    MADOKA MAGICA MANGA GUIDE PART ONE~

    ***(now these are not going to be in perfect order as far as release date, also I might not be able to find cover art for all of them and what not and if miss a important one or goof something up, it would be great if someone lets me know thanks ^^ )***

    Puella Magi Madoka Magica ( volumes 1-3)

    ** All these other titles are to considered spin-offs and/or other timelines to the original story)

    Puella Magi Madoka Magica- The Different Story (volumes 1-3)

    Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Movie- Rebellion Manga (Volumes 1-3)

    Puella Magi Madoka Magica- Homura’s Revenge!- ( Volumes 1-2)

    Puella Magi Homura Tamura (this is a comedy and has nothing to do with original story at all) ( Volumes 1-2)

    **** I will include the Wraith Arc manga when it comes out outside of Japan***

    So this concludes part one and I will do part 2 sometime next week! Hopefully this helps and if you want additional info on the titles just let me know! kiyonesmile1

    I’m back just in time to see this as I have been re-watching Madoka (dubbed this time around) on Saturdays.

    I’m up to episode 6. I have to dip into my copies of the Homura Tamura manga every time I watch though just

    to help lighten the load, because you know how intense it can get.

    I’m also watching RWBY on Tuesdays. Blake and Weiss… soawesome1

    btw: Brynhyldr In The Darkness is another title everyone should try…well as long as you’re of age since it’s rated

    MA.

    Vividred is what I will be watching when I finish with Madoka this time around, something a little bit less angsty.

    btw: I want to do a Tenchi/Madoka crossover one of these days with Sasami winding up becoming a Witch.

    We need a poster of Blake for Halloween!
    Dance in the Pleiades is coming out from Sentai soon,if it hasn’t already. Also the name of the series that I mentioned either here or somewhere else is Matoi but I forget the rest of the title.
    Finally on to vol. 3 of Madoka Saturday. At least this time around I didn’t feel like stopping like I did the first time.

    I think it has to do with knowing what’s going to happen and all that, but also reading Homura Tamura after words

    lightens the angst a bit.

    Since I.G. did both Madoka and Vividread it’s interesting to note that both Rei and Homura have a similiar design.

    Though I don’t think Rei will turn into a Devil any time soon. Though she does have her own issues.

    Omamori Himari will be out next week finally!

    ANN:

    Viz Media announced during its Moonlight Party livestream event on Friday that it is working with Eleven Arts to screen the Sailor Moon R: The Movie (Sailor Moon R Movie: Promise of the Rose) anime film in theaters in the United States in January.

    The event will also screen the “Make Up! Sailor Guardians” (Make-Up! Sailor Senshi) anime short alongside the film. The companies will screen the film and short in both an English-dubbed version and an English-subtitled version. Theatergoers will also get a bonus gift while supplies last.

    Viz Media is currently streaming a trailer for the film, and is also [BBvideo=https://youtu.be/S3CPnHGwUuc]streaming a video[/BBvideo] introducing the voice of Fiore for the film, Ben Diskin.

    [BBvideo]http://youtu.be/jf8b0HafRa0[/BBvideo]

    The film originally opened in Japan in 1993. Geneon Entertainment previously released the film on VHS and DVD between 1999-2004.

    In the film’s story, when Mamoru was little, he gave a rose to a little boy named Fiore. Fiore promised that one day he would bring Mamoru lots of flowers. Now Fiore has come back to earth but his intentions are not merely to fulfill a promise.

    The “Make Up! Sailor Guardians” anime short also premiered in 1993. In the short, Usagi and Chibi-Usa are at a cafe and overhear two girls talking about who is the best Sailor Guardian and describe the traits that make her the best.

    I reckon we’ll get theater listings later.

    Of course we all know the best is Sailor Mercury followed by Sailor Venus and Sailor Jupiter! With Sailor Pluto being tops among the Outers! 😆

    Seriously though, is this the first time any of the movies have been shown in theathers outside of Japan?

    It’s true. Two films, one about 30 minutes long, the other about 45. I have them.

    Judging from the trailer, looks like the TV series may start as a drawn-out version of the movies. But it won’t be identical to the movies’ plots.

    Ok so that answers a question I had on another thread on whether or not it was going to be a full tv series or simply an ova.

    I think “filler” would be the wrong term, seeing how little we already know about the Academia world. Seeing as they’re starting at the beginning, it’ll be “building”, or maybe “revealing”. ;)

    Yeah I watched it on a site that had the subs, my guess if it is successful enough they will do a re-release of the movies with the series when dvd comes out for it.

    I was disappointed that it wasn’t available. It sounds like it be an interesting show to watch.

    Well there are sites that probably have the movies in eng sub and/ or wait for the series to come out to watch next year.

    Yeah,that’s a good plan to wait for them to come out. I’m still waiting on School Live, Monster Musume

    and others.

    Any who: I started watching Wizard Barristers yesterday. So far Quinn and Cecil are up there for favorite character.

    I just loved the cool way that Quinn took the guy down while they’re on the train. As for Cecil: I wanna plushie! 😆

    Starting Vividred tommorrow. AFAIG: the dub of Madoka was pretty good, I would have to say it was one of the best that I’ve seen. The main cast especially did a good job, but especially Homura’s VA.( I’m biased here…Homura fanboyism

    at play! blush1 )

    Rei on Vividred= Homura. Just saying that they’re pretty much alike in many ways down to their character design.
    Someone on Reddit suggested that the four main characters on RWBY represent the Four Classic Greek Humors:

    Ruby,Sanguine

    Weiss.Phlegmatic

    Blake.Melancholic

    Yang,Choleric

    For the most part it does seem to be dead on,especially with Blake and Ruby, but what do you guys think?

    Quote:

    The Psychological Effects of the Humors

    The Four Humors are not just gross, physical substances. They also pervade the whole organism as subtle vapors, even affecting the mind, thoughts, and emotions. And so, the Four Humors also have psychological effects, making them capable of affecting both body and mind:

    Blood promotes a feeling of joy, mirth, optimism, enthusiasm, affection and wellbeing.

    Phlegm induces passivity, lethargy, subjectivity, devotion, emotionalism, sensitivity and sentimentality.

    Yellow Bile provokes, excites and emboldens the passions. Being inflammatory, irritating and caustic, it provokes anger, irritability, boldness, ambition, envy, jealousy and courage.

    Black Bile makes one pensive, melancholy and withdrawn. It encourages prudence, caution, realism, pragmatism and pessimism.

    The Four Humors tend to have negative effects on the mind and emotions only when they’re excessive or aggravated. Otherwise, they can also strengthen positive aspects of character.

    I can see it happening.

    Yep, it does make a bit of sense, especially with Blake and Ruby.
    Wish Upon The Pleiades part of today’s mega sale at Rightstuf. I definitely want to get this one but will have to forgo for now since I have plans to order Kiddy Grade this month.
    With the entire thing about the girls on team RWBY representing the four basic humors:

    Ruby=Sanguine

    Weiss=Phlegmatic

    Blake=Melancholic

    Yang=Choleric

    I got to thinking how it would work out with some others so here goes:

    Puella Magi Madoka Magica:

    Madoka= Supine,up until the end of episode 11 and then she seems to become a bit Choleric.

    Sayaka= Sanguine

    Kyoko= Choleric to the nth degree!

    Mami= Phlegmatic

    Homura= Melancholic

    Vividread Operation:

    Akane= Sanguine

    Aoi= Supine

    Wakaba= Choleric

    Himawari= Melphleg(Melancholic/Phlegmatic mix…it shows in the way she decides to attend school via computer after

    “The Incident”).

    Rei= Melancholic

    Princess Tutu:

    Duck/Princess Tutu= Sanguine

    Rue/Princess Kraehe= Melancholic

    I also noticed that Dark Magical Girls tend to have a bit of melancholy in them which is probably why they end up going to the Dark Side no matter how briefly we.

    A good example of what I mean about Dark Magic Girls being at least partly melancholic is how Rei behaves in Vividread. The very first line she has in the series is : “I must do what I must do.” before she fires her first arrow, even though she knows the more arrows she shoots the shorter her life span becomes.

    Rue’s actions when she becomes Princess Kraehe in Princess Tutu is another example.

    In other words to be a Dark Magical Girl you have to be a bit either melancholic or depressed.

    Welp after re-watching episode 5 of Vividread I have to say Rei is coming in as a close second to Himiwara for my favorite character followed by Wakaba. I wish they’d explain her thing about insects though.
    When I was at the second hand store yesterday I saw copies of Red vs. Blue but no RWBY. Well I was hoping I’d find Kimagure Orange Road but you know that would be like hoping to find a mermaid at the bottom of Lake Washington!

    the interview with yoh yoshinari: animeanime.jp/article/2016/12/26/31933.html

    Details:

  • >They decided to start from Akko’s arrival to the school to work on the world building and the mysteries of Luna Nova. He felt that the world in the movies felt a bit small and wants to expand it.

    >One of the reasons he decided to do a TV series over more movies is that there are many things he wants to do. For example, in a movie the focus would always be around Akko but in a TV series he can even give focus to characters like Amanda or Constance.

    >Even if Yoshinari tried to trim it for a TV series, they still ended up having a large amount of unique mob characters on screen.

    >Yoshinari wants to make a show for kids that can be enjoyed by adults because Trigger has done nothing of the sort.

    >In terms of the story, he wants to balance surprising developments and delivering on the audience expectations. He mentions Gurren-Lagann as contrast, because Gurren-Lagann was a show that followed the usual pattern of super-robot anime.

    >He picked Hori as main animator because Hori is someone that can animate magical creatures and make them feel real. He says that drawing magic is easy but drawing magic that feels real is harder.

    >In terms of the feel, they’re aiming for something that combines the feel of a Japanese magical girl anime with the more classical foreign image of a wizard (like in Lord of the Rings or Merlin from the Arthur legend)

    >He hopes to be able to make the characters interesting and deep in the long term.

    I know it is suppose to be a kids show, but since Trigger is making LWA, i feel like there is going to be a death of a character soon. Maybe a truamatic event, it just feels like Trigger that way, start off good then throttle on seriousness.
