| Welp, an action based finale with lots of action featuring Ichigo and the team. It felt similar to the previous episode but it is what it is. I felt kinda underwhelmed though as the episode just decided to go with a big fight. On the other hand, it did have its appeal of emotions with its cast, in particular with Ichigo again. Oh and Season 2 announced. |
 |
| In the end, this is your classical ending note that's stereotypical of most post-2000s Mahou Shoujo shows. The Mews Mews working at their hardest to allay the Hybrid Anima: Dust Wyvern from the aliens. and Kish sure wants that closeness with Ichigo. It's almost as if like he's a yandere in that regard (which he is in the manga). Despite the fake Mew Aqua bring destroyed by Kish, Mint finds one and with all her might, purifies the entire vicinity around the Tokyo Tower which the Dust Wyvern has been sputting poisonous gases, along with Ichigo getting a sizable upgrade to take down the monster. Although the latter has lost a valuable amount of time, while it may not be enough to make it to the concert date, Aoyama seeing her safe and sound is much more precious, along with the oh-so-typical confession under the rain with a hug. Oh, this is surprising to get a Season 2 in Spring 2023, presumably to continue the manga's pacing since it's perfectly halfway. In some ways, this remake is kinda of a disappointing one. Bring back an old series with new marketing, and that's all you can do to justify its existence. |

| The slow version of My Sweet Heart playing in the end of the episode almost brought me to tears ngl. |
| Didn't expect to hear "My Sweet Heart" playing at the end, what a wonderful way to end this season <3 |

| Pretty weird way to end the episode, I thought there'd be a season 2 announcement at the end. Mint got a moment to shine although it made Ichigo's powerup at the end kind of lose its meaning. It was nice to hear the old OP again, I definitely hope there's multiple versions of it and that it ends up youtube (official upload, obviously) sooner rather than later. It's nice that Ichigo got to have her romantic moment in the end but in terms of action it was kind of disappointing. They somehow randomly learned to cover for one another? When? If there's a sequel I hope it's a little bit more entertaining, action-wise. Edit: youtube delivered!!!! |

| Nice they could defeat that big moth and save the city and especially Aoyama and Ichigo confessed their love to each other in the end... also some teasing regarding the next opponent, up to the 2nd season, we'll see how it goes. |
 |
| This episode was genuinely amazing and I really liked how they included *that* song in the end. |
| Signature. |
| Nice wrap up to the Tokyo Tower arc, the fight was fun to watch Using the OP of the original anime...man I'm touched (and very teary ue) Aoyama and Ichigo confessions finally!!! Can't wait to see how they adapt the latter half of the series now that season 2's been greenlit 7/10 for me, a decent remake u.u, |
| I have no words and at the same time I have TOO MANY words! This is my second favourite episode after ep 6, this was fantastic!! The fighting is so dynamic, and I loved seeing how hands-on all the girls got in the fight. I had my doubts about giving Minto a "major decision" to make this late in the show, but tying it into her being able to sense the Mew Aqua was actually kinda genius! Minto's and Zakuro's shared arc came together so well, and having Zakuro help Minto get to the Mew Aqua was also bloody genius! As I've said from the beginning, I never cared much for Masaya & Ichigo's relationship growing up, but they've done them so much better this time. Their characters have been more interesting, and their interactions have felt way more natural, making this final scene so much more touching than it ever was in the manga (for me). As I didn't watch the old adaptation I probably wasn't the one the "My Sweetheart" cover was really made for, but I was still crying my eyes out, it was a fantastic idea to put it in there! I'm thrilled that we're getting season 2 as soon as April and can't waaaaaaaaaait~! |
| The 2002 Tokyo Mew Mew adaptation is not as great as you remember it being. |
| not as good as the original but stilll cute and fun trip down memory laneee :3 |
| It was ok overall but I'll be skipping S2. lol |
| It was great to finally see Mint be the MVP and kicking butt fighting, pretty excited for season 2 and man, Aoyama, that's a keeper, usually on this shows the love interest is whatever but here she doesn't deserve him instead lol. |
| hmmmm that's it??!? no kiss!!?!? LAME!!!! 3/5. 6/10. |
 |
| The 1st season really feels underwhelming. Fighting was boring, characters are flat and this is just my personal opinion VA voice is not good (at first I didn't really think mich about it but as I keep hearing it I grew to dislike it. They sound like a 7 year old) Now I just hope there's an improvement in s2 4/10 |

| Hated this remake, as expected when they remake 26 ½ episodes into a mere 12. Everything simply felt inferior to the 2002 version. It was rushed, making the characters and their relationships feel unnatural, Zakuro's voice actor didn't fit her at all, they skipped characters like the Blue Knight, moved things such as Ichigo turning into a cat earlier (and her cat form isn't as cute, but whatever), and it just wasn't enjoyable, nor did it carry any of the emotion the original did. The 2002 version also had it's issues, but it was still so great, lovable, and fun, that I can't help but feel salty from this. As for the confession scene, it's one of my favourite confession scenes of all time (or maybe even scenes overall), but here I didn't feel anything. At least they played a new version of the 2002 opening right before the confession, which I liked. |
  |
| It was okay. For being my first anime... I don't remember anything about the original story, heck maybe it wasn't as good as I thought lol but it wasn't for nostalgia and the fact I'm on a magical girl watching spree, I probably would've let my childhood anime stay in the past. maybe I should rewatch the original Hopefully season 2 will be better. |

This was just the first season, loads of the things you're complaining about them "skipping" just hasn't happened yet. Also, this adaptation has stayed way closer to the source material a.k.a the manga than the 2002 version, and surprise, the manga's pacing and writing was never very good. You people really refuse to see good things in this adaptation due to your nostalgia for the old adaptation. As someone who never grew up with the 2002 version and only read the manga I can confidently say that they made some major improvements to the characters and pacing here, and they deserve due credit for that. You people make me loath the 2002 version more and more with every passing day, because now all I connect it to are bitter people with nostalgia glasses. No, the new adaptation is not perfect or great, but it's a good adaptation of the manga, maybe if you people mature a bit more you'll come to realise that one day. |

No, the new adaptation is not perfect or great, but it's a good adaptation of the manga, maybe if you people mature a bit more you'll come to realise that one day. I should probably have clarified that my opinion doesn't come from any nostalgia, since I literally watched the 2002 anime in April this year. So yes, it is as great as I remember it being, but anyone that thinks that is of course objectively wrong and it's all because of nostalgia. I simply thought it was better and more enjoyable, but having differing opinions is fine, I don't expect everyone to agree with me. As for the things they have skipped, I of course don't think that they are actually going to skip them completely. They will probably appear later, but I do think when they are placed is important to enjoyment. And whether the remake has stayed closer to the manga or not does not matter at all for me. I'm an anime only, what I care about is how good the anime is, not whether it follows the manga perfectly. This is unless the manga does everything better of course, but you said yourself that the manga didn't have good pacing and writing, so shouldn't it be a good thing if the anime tries to improve on that? Maybe they improved the characters and pacing from the manga, but I certainly don't think they did so compared from the 2002 anime, but that's just an opinion. I apologise for making you loathe the 2002 anime. I was indeed bitter when I posted my original comment, but I just wanted to rant. (And I guess I'm immature for not preferring this one???) |

| The episode was good in term of story. But it's very infortunate that the animation was so poor in this remake... |
| This was a very medicore show with a weak main lead but the other girls were good enough to keep me watching. |
| I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon. |
| I couldn't held my tears when I realized My sweet heart was playing in the background... |
| Thia was a nice reboot, but I forgot how tiring the whole romance thing can be in general. Masaya likes you, Kish likes you, Ryou likes you, Obese-drooling cat likes you... like dang. It's like, "Oh no here we go". I can deal with two people liking the MC, but more than that and I'm kinda like aaggh. Other than that, it was nice to kinda go through Tokyo Mew Mew again. It's kinda one of those shows that give you a little of everything, sometimes to a fault. I love maids, I like magical girls, and so it's kinda fun despite the romance stuff. I smiled a bit hearing that familiar theme while she was running. |
| Fine ending. One day we'll get a kiss haha 5/10 |
 |
| Man, did not expect hearing My Sweet Heart in this series! Slowed version too, surprisingly good for an emotional moment. Enjoyed this series quite a lot, haven't seen mahou shoujo series this good looking in a while. WAY better than the first anime too! Glad they decided two make this two cours, halfway through I was worried it's gonna be rushed. 6/10 |
  |
| Eh? I thought this anime was alright. 6/10 |
| The wave of nostalgia that hit at the end when they played the old opening nearly killed me. I was not prepared for that. I am satisfied with that season ending, can't wait for season 2! |
 |
| My Sweet Heart playing at the end made me tear up. Dang! |
 |
| really cute ending, honestly my sweet heart playing was the highlight of that. It was a great cover, looking forward to s2 tho i didnt find this as a whole amazing, but it was fine for me and pretty enjoyable as a fan of the og. |
nifetiseBOY said: So they couldn't use the Mew Aqua they already had (which they found in the bottom of the ocean)? I liked the OG version but the plot holes in this one are glaring. The male characters are not well written, especially Shirogane. He's very toxic and I'm concerned for all the fans who like him or even ship him with Ichigo. 5/10 I loved the cute transformations and colorful attacks. Not sure if I want to watch the second season when it comes out. What do you mean? Mew aqua can only be used once, that's how it was in the manga as well. Any plot holes in this adaptation are also straight from the source material. |
