Notice that with the final version of the Sailor Moon fandub they include a preview of their dub of Cosprayers?

I think this show is bad enough that a fandub might actually IMPROVE the show.

That's pretty funny I don't know how much the dub would improve it, though, since the sub quality isn't astoundingly bad. It would be interesting if they changed the script, though!

Anyway, I just finished watching episode six and... I didn't think it was as bad as some people were saying. For me, it answered some very, very important questions:

1) What Priscilla's favorite food is.
2) Whether or not Scarlet is actually a masochist.
3) Does the small Miko like to bungie jump?
4) When is the crucifix bondage going to come? I CAN'T WAIT ANY LONGER FOR MY SWEET, SWEET CRUCIFIX BONDAGE!!

For those of you confused by the crazy puppet, you should watch the ending sequence again. The miko that was being tortured sleeps with that stuffed uh... person.

Whelp, episode 7 is out. Enjoy the 2nd to last episode of this bad series. Before people ask, here's the translator note for the 'Takama no Hara' bloodline.

Well, I just finished watching episode seven of Cosprayers and... holy crap it stopped making sense again. It started to almost make some sense in episode six, but here it just blew everything apart. I'm just going to post a few of my thoughts on the episode...

1) Did anybody notice that the giant statue looked like a person with breasts and a giant tentacle sticking out of its crotch, or was it just me? No, seriously. I mean it.

2) I can understand why Crus never fell in love with Scarlet, what with her being so fickle and all.

3) Why was the creator of the charm bracelets encouraging the Mikos to defeat the enemy? I mean, of all people, I would have at least expected HIM to know what was going on.

4) Why did the Black Mikos try to kill our heroes before if the girls were helping them?

5) Why is Koto called "Miko Reiya", but when they transform they say "Reiya Change"? Are they all called Miko Reiya?

6) Where was Koto going to in the first episode, anyway? A Cosprayin-- er, I mean CosPLAYING convention of some sort?

7) How is it that Scarlet can destroy an entire tower with a single blow, but she couldn't defeat the dark knight without Koto? Did she really gain THAT much power in such a short period of time?

8) I've been trying to make some sense out of how Crus was torturing the girls in episode six. I think that he was doing that to show the Black Mikos that he was on their side, but still helping the girls.

9) Why doesn't the Black Miko Reiya have arms?

10) See? I told you so, Chobits! *flex*

1) yeah... it's some symbolism. go ahead and beat your head over that one...

5) all the girls have a unique 'reiya' name. Scarlet is called Sister reiya. Priscilla's reiya name has something to do with india, Remi and Iko's reiya names come from their respective 'locations. I think Iko is from some south american location and Remi is from the middle east. Miko Reiya is just yelled alot cause she's the one blindly running around causing havoc to boneyjellyfish's mind.

6) She was at a class field trip, but she decided to go outside cosplaying since the shrine they were at was one of the locations of her favorite game, Dorifai3 (dream figher 3)

9) if you look carefully in previous eps(yeah I KNOW you want to ) she's been wearing a stright jacket this whole time for some reason. more of that BDSM fetish stuff I guess.


That make things clearer? *snicker

I think that Aztec/American Indian girl always brings that stuffed... um... thing with her, like the Indian girl with that dog... which... um... I want to eat...

6) Wow! What a coincidence that she just happened to bring her Cospraying... sorry, CosPLAYING outfit with her.

9) Yeah, that's what I was wondering about. Why has she been wearing the straight jacket? I suppose your answer was good enough, though... it just proves to me that the anime was made for men who like bondage.

I'm guessing this series doesn't get any better. Oh well.

What ever gave you that idea? I'm going to give MOE another chance after Cosprayers ends and Smash Hit! starts, but if that ends up being as bad, I'll be pissed ~_~

Wow! this surely is a series with many twists, I mean, about that Takitsuhime, she's good, she's bad, she's good, she's bad... oh well, the moral of the story?
Spoiler:


what a series! XD

PS: about the "Takama no Hara", shouldn't it be "Takamagahara", which means "the plain of high heaven"?

Both are common terms for them, which mean the exact same thing. See the translator note as I mentioned a few posts back.

You should be watching this series, Keitaro! It has many uses other than lack of entertainment. For instance:

(Location: random bar)

Tough Guy: "I lost this leg of mine fighting a shark with me bare hands. He jus' about tore me apart, but I beat him up, I did!"

Me: "Oh yeah? Well *I* watched Cosprayers!"

Bar: *GASP!*

4) hmm... I think you mean those four dark princes? well for all we know they may just want to propose to those hot cosprayers... in their own way... maybe their traditional method of proposing to a girl involves threatening to kill her first...

5) I think it should actually be Mikorayer instead of "miko reiya", it just means she's the Miko Cosprayer. Miko means shinto priestess/shrine maiden, which is what Koto cosplays... err... cosprays. Scarlet is Sisterayer since she cospl(r)ays a Church Sister...

8) Well, it's just a way of teaching us to have faith, I guess... or something. That to have faith in god, even if he tortures you and appears evil and does all kinds of suspicious things, you should always believe in him no matter what, accept all those tortures and sufferings from him happily... or bad things happen... like the destruction of the world...

The opening to Cosprayers was confusing as hell. I think I explained it SOMEWHERE... basically Koto put her Miko Fighter Misuzu outfit in her backpack, and was going to do a ritual to "gain courage".

I think you missed what I was asking. I was wondering if Crus made it appear that he was torturing the girls in order to get the Black Mikos to leave him alone.

Pretty Cure is far better than this dreck.

And it's animation budget for one episode is higher than that for the whole CosPrayer series.

I think not, since he said in ep 7 that they (Crus and Himiko) had intentionally put the cosprayers through trials, so I guess that's just a part of the trials as he stated. It's just a test of strength and faith IMO. Besides the idea of torturing his comrades to trick the enemy is simply too... rational for such a nonsensical series

a side note, the "miko" in the black mikos has quite a different meaning from the "miko" of Koto's miko reiya. Koto's "miko" means shrine maiden, black miko's "miko" means imperial prince.
