Do they get old and fat/pregnant?

not on-screen, it's more about passing the baton to newer generations really
The target-audience should have answered that question. That, or I'm just horribly out of touch with the youth of today.

I totally didn't get this idea from a doujin.
But I was thinking more on the lines that the baton comes back to them like 15 to 20 years later.
Is it not every little girls fantasy?!?
no.

Heartcatch Precure shit
.
This is getting into heavy spoiler territory, but
a Precure from the past has to come back at one point because the girls are being shite. It is not the focus of the show, but it acknowledges the difficulties of calling said character out of retirement (and by that I mean she's like 70 years old)
I guess we'd really be stretching the definition of a children's show at that point!
Or just straying into Madoka territory, whatever.

Yeah, I guess that's sort of what I was thinking
only with them being a little younger where they still have to have a job, raise young kids, pay the bills, etc.

Could be a future investment.
Manga UK is set to release Eden of the East: The definitive collection in about 2 weeks. That is really cool since I have lost my DVD collection of the series. Now I can re-buy it plus the movies and the OVA for only £20.
Anime companies are improving and I hope they reap their reward. Now I have to rebuy, the other DVDs as well

If Funimation would do the same instead of repackaging the tv series (again) and selling the two movies separate. Though Ill get the tv series before it gets that ugly Super Amazing Value Edition labeling.
Gotcha. I'll find something else for now.

To use for myself?
Yeah, now that you mention it, it doesn't even have that super ugly ''value package, look we are cheap'' label. Seriously, Manga UK is doing an amazing job. Other companies do this ''Anime Legend'' for their re-printing of older Animes and it looks daft.
Beautiful!

Need more Utena impressions, I am sure your 4 episodes have enticed everyones appetite.
Last year there were a lot of first time watchers. It was a feast.

And now you've heard most of them. Funny how that works.
It's not a motif in any magical girl show I know, although it has been used for comedic effect in Photon and as a trope in Noein.

Hey, some people need them once they grow old and weary! Ideally no one here would have to go through such an experience.
Sadly I'm at school right now and I don't have Utena with me. It's part of an effort on my part to keep myself from burning out on the show like I've been prone to doing as of late. I can't wait to get back to it though!

Hmm, speaking of themes where the artist credited appears to have sprung preformed and single use from some producer somewhere when the song was released... does anyone else listen to les5-4-3-2-1? (Cutey Honey Theme.)

Well everyone knows that 30 years old is the otaku expiration date.

Pretty good episode (Chiyo having to find
was hilarious), though with the previous episode being Chiyo's summer home again, this episode being the sports fest again and the next episode being the cultural fair again, I have to wonder if they're just rehashing the entire first season here. Not that I mind that much since it's still so good.

Now I really want a Precure designed by Ume Aoki and animated by SHAFT. Surely their budgets aren't that different from Toei's.

I seldom post here, but I saw on my Twitter feed that Gundam: The Origin (0079 manga) will be getting an adaptation on 2014.
I wonder if they will keep Furuya and Ikeda, while they still sound good, they don't have the young voice anymore.

I'd hope they retain them.

As a side note, I really approve of the Gunbuster fever that seems to be spreading throughout this thread. All I can say regarding that is: fuck yeah.
I'm actually a little surprised about how positive the reception has been to it. I mean, I really love it but it's extremely dated and has some pretty noticeable pacing issues but apparently that's not stopping people from enjoying it.
Ume Heartcatch is fantastic.

Not to pick on Otaku USA or anything but I like how they source Crunchyroll, which sources a twitter which links back to the original story whose only source is the website that relates to the twitter account in question. I don't see where they got their info from.
In addition, 2014 seems like a million years away. I guess the only reason it would be so far out is so that it could start coming out once they finish with Unicorn as I've completely forgotten when that is supposed to end I am probably wrong.
Some things were jarring
the red headed girl's 180 from glaring bitch to best friend within 10-15 minutes
when they got emotional at the wrong times
