Fight Ippatsu! Juuden-Chan!!
Fun show, almost ruined by the need to cram in plot. Still full of dirty jokes, lewd battle-damange, and violence against women.
Akio Watanabe was one of the Key animators on this and I can see it in the characters (especially plug, who reminds me a lot of Elsie from TWOGK), despite him not being a designer on this.
Going to watch the specials next, hopefully they have a nice focus on fun.

Oh is that what happened? Man, that's like, blue balls x10 or something.



Oh man that reminds me that I have to start Zero's side of X4 soon. Little bro and I are playing through. We did X's with Ultimate Armor and just laughed at how pathetically easy the game got.

Yeah it was major blueballs. It was rough having to wait.

Is there any show worthy of :corvo now?

I really actually did get a kick out of reading the reviews. What's something as mindfuck as Madoka that you haven't watched yet, Corvo?

So it can be exactly the same as it was before? I find that it's far more interesting to see the characters interact in his absence as it opens up a wider variety of scenarios.

Araragi better brought back Oshino with him, or he can just gone forevah.

Well thanks PrecureGAF. I kept telling myself to stay away from this franchise after Heartcatch, but every time I see a picture from this show posted, I say to myself: "Wow, those are some pretty awesome character designs", then I remember it's a Precure show.

But now I found myself unable to resist the temptation now, so here we go!

DokiDoki! Precure - 1

Oooh, this actually looks kinda dark! All this despair and tragedy, and the only way to stop it is to make a contr-

Oh, there it is. Happy-go-lucky opening. Madoka jokes hold no meaning here.

So we start off with who is probably the nicest nicey nice character in the history of nice. And her blue-haired friend is telling her to be less nice and think more for herself. Pfft, the world needs more people like her. So they're at Tokyo tower huh? Funny, I remember another Magical Girl adventure show wher-NOPE NOPE. I did not see that show at all and therefore will not make any reference to it.

What the hell kind of a disguise is that? You can't disguise a celebrity with only glasses and expect people not to notice! Superman's disguise is more tricky than yours!

Good crap! When did this shit become Itchy and Scratchy? He literally ripped that guy's heart out!

...

Y'know...For me to have any possibility of enjoying this show with its crazy logic involving people's common sense, I am going to pretend that it takes place in the universe of Gurren Lagann. Why? Because hey,
maybe this entire franchise gets their powers from Spiral Energy. It makes sense when you think about it, with all this energy from the heart crap. Maybe they're on another planet in the same universe. I can't think of anywhere else where a giant crab coming out of nowhere would in any way be considered acceptable by anyone.
Either all, I don't think I should be questioning common logic in a Precure show. So I'll stop at this point.

If Apple made a phone like that, they would have a monopoly.

She's obviously in another castle. Do you people never learn?

This is probably the first mahou shoujo where the main character's hair changes into a radically different color when transforming. I mean, I was expecting a lighter red or something, but whatever.

Okay, first episode and not a spec of unnecessary merchandising. It's definetly a bit darker than Heartcatch so far, so lets keep going.

I was in the mood for some yuri romance, and cajunator said I should watch this. Pretty good so far. I like Akira (I think that's her name. A-chan. The redhead).

That OP...

This was certainly something. The garden sleeps soundly tonight.
Animation was pretty standard and plotwise it felt like it really wants you to experience the source material but I suppose that's the status quo with this sort of thing. The ED sequence was the best part of the whole thing. Also that teaser at the end.
I give this 3*(5^-1) SDBurtons
