| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- FORGET LILLIAN. FORGET ELENA. THE ULTIMATE FUCKING MARYSUE OF THIS SHOW IS DEFINETLY MOMONA. GUESS WHO'S SECOND PLACE? FUCKING RUBY the whole ep has miura being this lameass third-rate villain, with cayenne probably knocking some sense into him later. God I hope Lillian comes back, she's my favorite character. She may be stereotypical but at least she's deep and isn't OP as MOMONA. They are SO PULLING THE FINAL ATTACK CARD with Mormons ending it with a Big Bang. Ugh, another stereotypical ending, just like jewelpet tinkle. I was hoping that it would have some sort of twist, guess not. Momona not wanting to hurt the beast and try reasoning with it is CLEARLY FORESHADOWING. The ending would have Momona not resort to violence and save everyone with her magical girl powers of goodness. You Madoka rip-off except that madoka was way more developed than you. Her being scared is just a cheap trick to get viewers to believe that she's human and get sympathy. SHE WASN'T EVEN SCOLDED, JNSTEAD PEOPLE TRIED TO COMFORT HER. YPFUCKING HELL SHE COULD HAVE GOTTEN EVERYONE KILLED THAT MARYSUE. I'm sry I'm so angry I expected a lot more from this show. 3/10 |
| I was hoping for a realistic themed ending, in which you have to sacrifice something for another. Life is shit sometimes, but it doesn't mean you can't be happy. That was the ending I was hoping for, maturing and learning the good but still holding on to that endless imagination. Looks like I was wrong. |
| ....so all I gather from those 2 posts are "ARGH WHY ARE YOU NOT AS DEEP AS MADOKA!?" This is a show for little kids before the otaku crowd. While it has been fairly serious, we are talking about the same series with little jewel animals with their little jewel phones/pads. Seriousness flew out the window at the plot summary. While yes, a kid show can be mature and serious, you're complaining that Momona is trying to empathetic and see if she can find a solution that means less violence. ...call me crazy, but isn't that technically 'mature' for the target audience? |
Orion_Eden said: Here's the thing. You're saying that you want realism, cruel twists and subversive content out of a kids' show. You even go on to compare it unfavorably to Madoka, a show that kids should most definitely NOT be watching, not until they're well into their teenage years. You are watching a show for very young kids, people who don't quite have a strong grasp on morality or the ways of the world yet, therefore, the shows that they watch must be simple and straightforward. You are crazy for wanting complexity and realism out of Jewelpet, or even, any kids' show. And then slamming it for not being up to the standards of an adult show like Madoka. i have never said i was hoping for something as crazy as madoka. if you haven't been keeping up, zexcs within interviews stated that lady jewelpet would be something entirely fresh and "new". The lady thing is amazing, and as a kid's show it's pretty cool. However, this is the thing. They are hinting mature themes, they put violence without blood and have characters literally punchin each other like second-rate romance dramas. They are trying to make this too romantic and too stereotypical. The character designs are just reused, and they just had to put in the magical girl card. I am of course expecting something new since they had promised something entirely new, but since they had put in the magical girl card at the last minute i will rant. Even momona being lady because she was proper and full of goody niceness was pretty decent, even though it wasn't original. They just wasted character development and a whole good story of developing an ordinary girl to someone respectable and kind. so because they had use magical girls as a theme, i am expecting something not sterotypical and original because why not |
| Eh, I was hoping the beast would possess Momona, after all the brightest light casts the darkest shadow, but Momona shines too brightly for the beast, lol. I love Momona though, and her idea of trying to understand the beasts instead of locking them up is not such a bad idea, and so far the other ladies who have shot the jewel arrow weren't successful in eliminating the beasts. I was hoping for a new OP/ED for the final cour.. but.. *sigh* I guess those special eye catches from the fashion competition Sanrio held will do. |

| LOL. I liked this. I like how there's a pure, immature character like Momona who sees the world just like pure innocent kids see it. Her decision to talk to the beast first was what I would expect her to do. But I don't know why it didn't work when she tried to shoot that arrow again, after she found out that beast's true nature. Probably like someone said in one of the previous episode discussion threads, they want to leave that for the finale XĐ I don't think Miura will turn into some kind of a villain, I think that will be terminated before he manages to do anything, considering the amount of episodes left too. Okay, they will resurrect Lillian, that's for sure, but I really really hope Lady Rector will stay dead. :D |

| Momona is literally too pure and that's a problem, the door of chaos opened, Miura lost it and a bad ending is waiting for everyone if something doesn't happen |
