Synopsis

Thirteen-year-old Ichigo Momomiya is at an endangered animal exhibit with her crush Masaya Aoyama when she is hit by a beam of light and sees a cat entering her body. She begins to demonstrate cat-like behavior the following day. A giant monster attacks Masaya and forces Ichigo to transform into a pink magical girl with cat ears and a tail.

A boy named Ryou Shirogane explains that the monster she fought was a Chimera Anima—alien parasites that infect animals and turn them into giant monsters. Ryou and Keiichiro Akasaka, the owner of a pink cafe called Cafe Mew Mew, planned to take the DNA of five Red Data Animals and use them as biological weapons by injecting them into Chimera Anima—an experiment they called the Mew Project. But due to an earthquake the day before, the DNA was accidentally shot into Ichigo and four other girls that she met outside the museum instead!

Now a "biological weapon," Ichigo must fight against the aliens and find her potential teammates—all while keeping her feline identity a secret from Masaya.

This is my first manga I ever read with knowing it was a manga. I had a lot of fun reading it when I was younger and I still love it to this day. It may have a lot of tropes that we all know, but it dose it well. If you are someone who is older I wouldn't recommend it. But if you know someone who is around 6-10 I would recommend it. I feel like it is a good icebreaker manga to help younger viewers get in to the community. I love how it wants to help the environment too. My only problem ...

Tokyo Mew Mew is definitely a childhood classic for many today. With the reboot aired this year, I decided to finally sit down and read the entire manga.
Let's start with what I liked. The premise was very unique. Animal magical girls fighting polluting aliens does not sound like a common pitch. And this novelty definitely gives the manga points. And, the art. I am a sucker for 2000s shoujo art with the large glossy eyes and youthful faces. The costume design is cute and while the attack names are a bit cheesy, it's very fun.

However, good art and premise does not make up for the ...

This manga doesn't seem to do anything exceptionally well. The plot is very basic and similar to many other magical girl shows. It's about a typical girl who suddenly gets magical powers and now has to protect the world with a group of four other magical girls. This basic premise isn't bad, but it's nothing special. The issue is that almost everything else in this series seems to also follow this "Alright, but nothing special" -formula.

For example, let's take the characters. All 5 of the "Mew Mews" have distinct personalities. There's the relatable main character, the spoiled and sassy rich girl, the shy girl who ...
