All the more to keep watching.

Right.. too many familiar names in this thread *not* to check out the series ....

Sounds like an entertaining enough diversion if naught else.

Conan-san · 2006-09-01, 12:31

Ok, Shota's dad was way too trusting in episode 7...does he know something, like Mamoru (Gaogaigar)'s folks did?

Maybe that huge syringe is supposed to be from Strawberry Panic?

And that fan of paper.. didn't Asuna from Negima own something like that? That'd explain the broom.. well whatever

I've planned to check this show out, because of this:

Ohmygod CUTE!

Nemo_N · 2006-09-01, 15:25

Yeah, I think Souta's dad knows something too...

And now I think Ibara is a little scary...

Believe me my friend, if you are looking for cuteness, you won't be able to quit this one!

While I was reading Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS thread, I realized one thing, that Gretel is almost like Fate was in Nanoha's first season, Gretel is doing everything for her "onii-sama", like Fate was for her mother.

Althought Hansel just mock her for her failures, not beating her half-dead, this is a childrens show, but what if she will switch sides at some point of the series and starts fighting for Akazukin and co. Remember, real main villain is Cendrillon (sp?), not Hansel or Gretel.

orion · 2006-09-04, 07:03

But in the fairy tales, Gretel protects Hansel. So if they follow that line, then Cendrillion would have to attack Hansel. Greta takes the hit and is injured. Hansel becomes angsty, caring brother. Hansel and Greta attempts to escape, but get captured. Cendrillion is about to cook the both of them and Akazukin arrives to save them!

*Cue Musketeer group stock footage, sweet phone stock footage, musketeer attack stock footage.*

Fight ensues. Cendrillion kicks their a**.

We lose Ringo finally. Oh well, the tsundere was only in the way of our Akazukin getting the guy. Thank you Cendrillion!

Kouta powers up and saves the day!

orion · 2006-09-27, 23:49

Speaking about Kouta powering up...

Spoiler:

Kyupi is definitely no Mokona.

blitz1/2 · 2006-09-28, 07:03

Looking forward to more "Juushi"?

Kensuke · 2006-09-30, 17:14

Episode 11 was definitely best and funniest so far, and a very big plus for dere-dere Ringo. This episode made me actually laugh, several times.

Vexx · 2006-09-30, 18:23

For some reason I'm having a hell of a time getting any torrents to work for this series. There's a fair number of nodes but they all forcibly disconnect. Not having this problem with other series currently d/ling.

Ah well.... (goes off to keep tinkering), eventually I'll have something to say...

I suspect that, at some critical moment, Ringo is going to display some true magical ability.

orion · 2006-10-01, 16:48

Nah.

Spoiler:

Anacone · 2006-10-01, 18:31

Again complete victory! Episode 14 proves why I follow this. It just gives good mood whenever I check it

. Although episode focused on Gretel (which is good thing) and had a bit sad mood. It had very funny moments with team Akazukin.

Spoiler for Episode 14 Screencaps, no action revealed:

bluemist · 2006-10-06, 19:46

Aah, guilty pleasure.

A few weeks ago I was channel-surfing here until I came upon this show, and... wait a minute... was that Yukari Tamura I hear? Whoa! Yukari Tamura at 9:00 in the morning! So I checked out the episode, and I'm totally sold! This relived my memories of how much I loved kiddie mahou shoujo shows like my all-time favorite Cardcaptor... wait... wasn't that Syaoran I heard? Wow! It was the original Syaoran! This is awesome! It's like a mix of two genres... mahou shoujo adventures + bishoujo animation... with instantly recognizable seiyuu.

Ever since, I've been checking out every Saturday mornings.. just like now. Better make a 10-episode catch-up.

Vexx · 2006-10-06, 20:25

Nothing wrong with this show... just not striking my bell. I watched a few episodes ... the artwork reminded me a bit of Petopeto-san. Can't deny the cuteness of the little winged helmet and squeaky shoes (another petopeto note) and it was an interesting transition from "reality" to otherworld.

Carry on, just not my cup of ocha.

Mgz · 2006-10-06, 23:59

too kiddy for my taste T_T

cute kid tho

It is shown at 9 AM on Saturdays.

It's a nice, wholesome magical girl anime filled with positive female role models. A nice change from all the violent, angsty, mature titles out there.

This title will definitely put a smile on your face imo.

Anyway, just as I suspected...

Spoiler:

My favorite ep. so far are ep. 13 and 14.

Sonhex · 2006-10-28, 11:10

Right, I have a confession to make; this series is my guilty secret anime pleasure for saturdays. I can no longer remain silent about it. The reason being that episode 18 was all kinds of awesome...

Does his learning the full fairytale has something to do with him opening the gateway between the 2 worlds? Kyupi is definitely no Mokona. __________________

orion Waiting for more taiyuki! Join Date: Jan 2004	Nah. Spoiler: She's there as a potential rival for Shirayukihime for Souta and now as a magician, in her mind only and not in reality. Totally discounted Akazukin, especially with that hand holding scene in the ED. She most likely has zero potential as she is from Elde imo. That's why Hameln tried to tell her to go back home. Makes better drama for her to try, fail and get rescued by the others. Of course, there could always be something there that requires a non-magican to do later on in the series that's important to validate her presence there. __________________

Sonhex Not dead. Yet. Graphic Designer Join Date: Mar 2004 Location: UK	Right, I have a confession to make; this series is my guilty secret anime pleasure for saturdays. I can no longer remain silent about it. The reason being that episode 18 was all kinds of awesome... Spoiler: ...what can you say about the City Singers of Bremen? Akiko Kobayashi and Chiwa Saito are great. This band needs their own album. I'd buy it. Other highlights include: Akazukin's 'Jushi jushi ju-ju-ju-ju-jushi' and the three insert songs by the Musketeers were the icing on the cake. Shirayuki-hime's was especially good. Hamelyn is no longer cool, pwned by seasonal vegetables. His fear of pumpkins thanks to Akazukin (Wah! Yarh! Wah! Yarh!) made my day. Least we now know that Hamelyn and Akazukin were childhood friends.
