----------------------------------------
First episode pre-aired today.

The animation is not impressive so far. Amatsuki make her introduction at her new school and seems like a friend easy to make friends with. The characters are cute I guess even for Sumire who seems to have a colder ulterior look.

There's some supernatural content that appears in the episode as expected. Overall, average start so far imo.

Is this a sequel? Other entries are listed as "Other", but from the 2011 series it goes as a sequel.

It's a direct sequel to Tokimeki Paradise, just look at the school outfits and the flashback with Haruka and Aoi. The episode was a bit weak though and the villains might be a bit weak compared to Tokimeki Paradise although a Shamisen playing villain taking souls is a bit original.

No wonder this felt like Nurse Witch Komugi-chan R. This is like a pseudo reboot of a mid 2000's series.

Not that I'm complaining. It's a nice change of pace to have a by the numbers mahou shoujo in this day and age.
I wish Cowboy Bebop never existed.

She reminded me of the girl from Hinako Note.

Is it ok to watch this without watching the prequel?

I'd watch the first 2 seasons before continuing with this installment.

New girls instead of a design change for aoi and haruka, I like it :)
Sacred energy and ant villains introduced as well.

I thought this was pretty good.

I think I will also go and watch the 2 OVA's from 2008 and the 2011 TV series to understand more.

Main character was likeable enough. Everything else was garbage. Mostly aimed at a pretty young audience.

It's the same VA and they have similar designs, so I can't really blame you for thinking that.

It was alright. Not terrible, but alright. Though I am a newcomer to this series. Loved how the magic staff turned into a flail. Caught me off guard and I had a chuckle. I'll see where this goes.

That are quite the colorful characters.

The enemy was hilarious. The battle was somehow like a hero show.

2003 called. They said they want their magical girl Anime back.

Seriously, this whole show I was waiting for some sort of unique take or twist on the Magical Girl that would make this Anime unique and got... "Wanna Be Pretty Cure."

likeable Meguru but Sumire is kinda forced her attitude, still they are at time to amaze us!

There are a lot of merits to the show. I really do love the MC and I'm interested to see how this goes. However, some of the stuff here was ridiculous. You all saw that fight seen. She was practically walking. Yet miraculously, they beat one of the strongest bad guys ever. Do you actually expect me to believe that?

I'm going to give it another episode, but if I don't see potential improvement, then I'll probably stop watching it. Anyway, those are just my thoughts.

I chuckled more than I should have.
It's nice to have a straightforward magical girl show once in a while, especially when it pokes fun of the genre in its own way. This will stay on my watch list.

Cheap pachinko advertisement. Reminds me of Komugi R, which was also spin-off of already mostly forgotten franchise, same type of comedic mahou shoujo, except I didn't watch previous so I'm not disappointed. Anyway I guess same fate for it here - low score and number of watchers.

When I saw this I heard screams of yurirfags anger


Also, holy shit it's Papika and Mimi.

Who ever said it was going to be in the first place? Not all mahou shoujo shows have to be dark nowadays.

Had no idea that this was a magical girl show or what it was about at all.
I found it boring, and I'm not into Magical girls so that might be why. But a cool dUbstep song at the start thought.

So I'm confused. Is this show a direct sequels to the other seasons, or can I watch it as a stand alone? I didn't realize when picking this up that it had other seasons, but the first episode seemed like watching the previous other seasons wouldn't really be necessary

I've watch all the previous seasons. I don't think it's necessary to watch them prior to watching this one. Though there might be some terms and trivias that you will miss.

I think the previous seasons is more fun compared to how this one goes so far, that reason alone makes it worth checking out.

I started watching because of the voice cast. The show sucked and I couldn't make it all the way through the first episode. This is the shit-tier of anime.

This wasn't original at all. The main character is like Hinako from Hinako Note and Sumire is like Homura Akemi from PMMM. It has a sailor moon/mermaid melody vibe.
Guess I'll continue watching it, but I prefer dark shows more.

Well this seems more interesting than the 2011 show, at least comparing first episodes. I like that this has a bit more drama to it, and prefer the art style.

That said, since it seems transparently obvious that the characters from the previous show will appear in this series, I wonder if it might be useful to watch both shows as a double header. I might try that.
