Working on a project and randomly opened this episode that I don't remember at all (40), went to a random spot on the timeline, and came across this gem. The pauses, the delivery, the fourth wall break... It's just cracking me up, so I had to get a clip of it and share.

"You want the scoop on Sojiki?"

*silence*

"We don't have a thing to worry about! Against four Love Angels and Limone a silly devil like that is no problem!"

*silence*

"...but..."

*more silence*

One of these days I'll have to do a full rewatch, since Wedding Peach defined my childhood. I had a trailer of it on a DVD from an anime magazine (maybe Newtype USA?) and would play it nonstop, and then one day as I was about to, my mom entered with the first DVD volume.

I've always loved how classic series like Cutie Honey and Sailor Moon balanced beautiful heroines with genuinely menacing, sadistic villains. For my upcoming indie pilot, Pat and Amy: Hearts and Shadows, I wanted to bring that high-stakes energy back.

Meet Mistress Selene, the ruler of the Anti-Love Kingdom. She seems elegant, forgiving, and regal, when a minion fails she "forgives" them with the promise of one last chance but in reality, she takes genuine, sadistic pleasure in psychological warfare, turning people's hopes and dreams into weapons. She’s completely narcissistic, intensely strategic, and views everyone around her as disposable tools.

Examples:

• Nozomi Yumehara / Cure Dream & Coco - Yes! PreCure 5 (GoGo!)
• Akimoto Komachi / Cure Mint & Nuts - Yes! PreCure 5 (GoGo!)
• Megumi Aino / Cure Lovely & Blue - HappinessCharge Pretty Cure!
• Queen/Cure Mirage & Blue - HappinessCharge Pretty Cure!
• Nono Hana / Cure Yell & George Kurai - HUGtto! Pretty Cure

Note:

Coco and Nuts' actual ages are never revealed, but they seem old enough to hold down full-time jobs and serve as mentors to the Pretty Cures. Coco is literally Nozomi's school teacher.

The character Blue is unpopular and has been accused as a groomer within the PreCure fandom.

And I find the idea or the strong implication that the brooding *Hug! PreCure* villain George Kurai is Cure Yell’s future husband and Hugtan’s father very uncomfortable.

I’m sorry, but I just find it too weird that he spends time with his wife’s younger self while she is still a child.

Hello everyone! My name is Gioazu. I'm very happy to share with you my first magical girls novel (which will be part of whole series of novels). It is now available on amazon for free if you have kdp unlimited (It is written in spanish)

This story os about two girls named Celeste and Violeta. They are university students who live on a smalltown named Aguamarina that secretly protect the world from supernatural creatures named "Resentments" that are born of the negative emotions of dead people. Even tho they are not in a romantic relationship Celeste and Violeta are deeply in love with each other in a very platonic way and trust each other with their whole hearts.

If you are innterested on reading it let me know. And if you know someone interested please share it with them. You would be doing me a great favor!

The artcover was painted by the talented artist Josela. You can find her or instagram by the username "joselaferreyraart".

I wish you all a very happy day/night!

Pictures 1 & 2 are sketches of Lisa & Christine in their civilian and magical forms.

Pictures 3 & 4 are their transformation items, a pair of perfume bottles with Lavender and Cedarwood fragrance inside.

Picture 5 is of a Mare, the monsters of the week. They are infected humans who sap off the energy of others at night, inspired by the mythological creature of the same name.

And Picture 6 is a silly doodle. Poor Cedar...

Ask me anything about these girlies!

So I was recommended this as I wanted to watch a Magical Girl show with shonen/seinen level action sequences(I'm a guy after all,we love action)

I got warnings about fanservice, but it's almost non existent. There are no panty shots, explicit bath scenes or any of the risqué fanservice. The only thing is a few boob based gags(such as Mikoto groping Mai,but it only happens a few times),a whole episode about a lingerie thief and a siscon joke. The only explicit thing was at the end of one episode, Mai talks about bra shopping and we briefly see her in lingerie, but that's about it.(Note:I don't hate fanservice, but I hate when it's on underage characters or overdone)

The artstyle is so nostalgic as I grew up watching late 90s/early 2000s anime. The animation holds up quite well,and so do the action sequences. The show also balances humor well. I'm on episode 8 and loving it so far. For anyone else who watched it, what are your thoughts?

The ending song is also catchy,I find myself always humming the bass line casually😂😂
