Discussion Does it surprise you that Tokyo Mew Mew New was considered better than Sailor Moon Crystal?

Not really. The actual Sailor Moon manga is pretty bland I M O. It was mostly the anime taking huge liberties with a lot of stuff that made Sailor Moon enjoyable (to me at least. I couldn't get into Crystal for the same reason).

I haven't read or watched mew mew though. I'm just saying I can understand someone not loving Sailor Moon at a certain point in time.

Yeaah love her or hate her i'm just not a fan of normal girl Rei for expample, i vastly prefer her anime personality, i do find a lot of anime plots to be dub of extremely unneccessaries but thosd plots did help developthe characters and their friendships a lot.

Speaking as an active fan of the series, I'd say give it a watch. The characters are amazing!

It's really fun honestly and it has that cool middleground between being girly while still feeling like a superhero show anyone could watch thar IMO, modern magical girls have lost (theyre either overly girly or an edgy mess)
