Warning: This is my first time writing a review, so I might stumble over my words a bit. English is also not my first language, so my grammar might not be the best. I tend to ramble, but hopefully I managed to make this short and sweet.


This review is spoiler-free!


When I first heard of this anime, I was a bit hesitant to watch it. The costumes looked a bit weird to me, and the synopsis made me think this was a parody, which is not something I usually enjoy.

However, as I am a huge magical girl fan, I couldn’t just pretend this didn’t ... exist. I plan to watch as much anime of this genre as possible, after all. So I gave it a small chance.

“Two episodes” I told myself. “I’m going to watch just two episodes to see if I find it interesting.”

It did not disappoint. I was hooked halfway through the first episode.

The main characters are adorable and full of personality; the story is intriguing; the ‘villains’ are funny and silly at times and even the costumes grew on me. It’s a shame how underrated this is, even amongst fans of the genre.

All in all, this was incredibly relaxing to watch, and I couldn’t recommend it more if you like magical girls and wholesome, charming anime aimed towards children. If this anime caught your attention but you are unsure if you should watch it… Go for it! Who knows, you might fall in love with it as much as I did.

That is all I wanted to say regarding this. Thank you so much for reading and bye-bye!

Note: Excuse my poor English.


This Anime is damn a masterpiece !!!!!
It may not be that popular , but if you find it you must really watch it , and you'll regret ignoring it ! I watched it first time 7 years ago when it was aired on TV for first time in another Dub , I remember that I really enjoyed it ,but after this long period of time , I forgot what is was about , and after seeing it here on MAL I decided to rewatch it and enjoy it in its original version , and I was so ... shocked when I realized that the version I watched missed so much scenes , and changed some lines ... This review is based on the second time I watched it so keep this in mind !

Story (9)

The story is so unique , beautiful , heartwarming and so deep if you follow and understand it well . You may think that it's childish but it's really not ! It includes adults , and it's full mystery too... The story behind the Kirumins , and Both the Mikogami and Hatori families too are so deep , a bit complicated but also so beautiful !! The story mixed both emotional and comedy scenes in a such perfect way !!

Art (10)

I just adored the Art style of this Anime series , It got even the small details to be so beautiful , cute and matching with outfits and backgrounds ; such as the small cute hearts in Riko and Rimu's (that you won't see that much ) eyes or the stars in Nagisa and Ken's eyes are so cute !! Also the costumes have so much details in it that will keep you starring at them for the whole scene ! I'm pretty sure that you'll love it !

Sound (8)

The OP even that it's the same for the whole 50 episodes , but it's so freaking catchyyy !!!! You'll never get bored of it ! And I think that it was a good idea to not change it after a few episodes , and I can also say that I didn't skip it for a single time !! I think that it's a kind of wierd Thai song !
The ED themes are so calm and cute , specially the second one ! I really did enjoyed them !
The background music is so coool ! It keeps you excited and it really does fit every single scene ! Specially the transformations ones !

Character (10)

Every single character in this series has its own charm . I don't know how to describe it , for example Riko is a really curious , noisy and courageous person , while her sister is shy , kind and deep and she becomes a totally different person after removing her glasses ( I mean prettier ) .. Ken is special , and also a person who loves challenges a lot and his best friend Tamao is a genius but not a boring person , and he is so funny dealing with his crush on Rimu , and when she thanks him or worry about him , he turns red and his glasses crack ( as metionned in his descreption ) and this two guys with their unique charecters were able to be seen as a main charecter, and the same goes for the other supporting ones ... Adults in this series such as parents , teachers , bulters ... etc are most of the time supporting the group of kids ....

Enjoyment (9)

I really did enjoyed this series a lot but it's not a ten out of tem enjoyment because of the dissapointing ending ( I don't wanna spoil ) But it's a still one of the best Anime series I've watched ..

Overall (10)

Long review right ? hahaha

This anime is a damn masterpiece, from art, music and everything.
The op got me grooving all 50 episodes.
This anime is just breathtaking, it ends with a cliffhanger, plotwist and is an absolute masterpiece.
Leonardo DaVinci would definetely be proud.
This anime cured my depression, it made me have a positive outlook on the world.
Nothing stands near this, it's the BEST anime in the world.
One Piece is a no, JoJo is a no, Naruto is a no, this is an anime made by Jesus Christ himself, it's so perfect on so many levels that I'm actually in love.

Thank you, Jesus Christ.
