Damn, this almost felt like an episode finale.

Tons of action from this episode including all the relevant cast, Ichigo, and these so-called alien invaders. Felt kinda rushed though. I mean, I wish I could've gotten more invested into the story or plot at this particular point.

Still, this was quite an intense episode.

Given how much the reboot can only touch up till a certain section of the original manga, I guess this is just it.

When the giant coccoon is still residing over Tokyo Tower, the presence of Mew Aqua is more important, but without the Mew Mews' strongest member, it's almost impossible to rally the group together. It's the same story for the aliens to have their brethren awake on Earth, and if they succeed, Earth will be reformed under their rule.

Ichigo and Ryo's banter is a moment in the manga, and now that she's back as a human, she's ready to do battle and come to save the Mew Mews. It's showtime for Ichigo, and the 5 girls can finally work together to put off the aliens.

If this is all they have, so be it.

I'm really glad about all the fighting we got to see the girls do here!
Having them all do their stock-animation and then just have them going at it after that was really neat.

As I said last week though, I've never been a fan of the sub-plot that is "Ichigo turns into cat and goes on wacky adventures" because it doesn't really do anything to the overarching story. All it does is confirming the already established "love triangle" that I've always found pointless and boring.

The animation also felt more rushed in this episode than we've seen in a while, but I'm kinda hoping that they rushed this to give us better quality for the final episode.

I REALLY hope it gets renewed for a second season though, they can't leave it here!!
Exited and scared for the final episode~!
The 2002 Tokyo Mew Mew adaptation is not as great as you remember it being.

The finale of Ichigo's time as a cat was fun to watch as usual :"3

The girls in action was fun to see, along with the aliens' reason to invade earth

Aoyama-kun so early wwww

Can't wait to see the finale of the reboot, its been nice so far

Aww, I don't want this show to end so soon, 17:40 and it looks too bright, my equator brain can't compute that.

So now, since Ayoma 'doesn't know' about Ichigo's secret, she can't kiss him since she doesn't know if it would turn her into a cat, which would betray her secret to him.

So keeping it a secret was just setting up more problems

And the aliens wanting wanting to protect the planet..by spreading pollution. Seems like this was well thought out

I have two questions. Are we going to pretend we didn't see an MC almost get raped by a horny cat? And second, who should Ichigo's main love interest really be? This blond is written much deeper than that stereotypical bishonen.

Therefore, "main" love interest is Aoyama-kun. But in the original series, they just wouldn't let that be settled for good until very close to the end.

Well, I understand that shoujo can be a good match for shonen harems in terms of "everybody wants to fuck an MC", but I feel like Aoyama's subplot just doesn't have any special drama or meaning other than Ichigo personally likes him.

I honestly don't really care about the romance plot, but i do love seeing Ichigo cooler side in battle, and of everyone too! Knowing finally the villains objetive was nice too. Really hope this reboot gets more seasons!

Nice that she finally figured out it's kiss-based.
Ichigo seems to have gotten stronger between their last battle and now. Tart and Bu Ling thankfully still have the same cute bond. I hope the finale lands well.

I just love how the theme song plays when Ichigo thinks about the things she loves. Even though this episode didn't advance the story that much, it still delivered a fine character moment for our heroine.

I really liked this episode. The girls were supporting and trusting eachother while fighting, waiting for Ichigo. They make such a good team together.

I like how this episode goes. I still remember the original anime, but I can't compare the 2 adaptions.

Girls are battling the aliens for the Mew Aqua and Ichigo finally realized what she's fighting for.
