LWA has been bouncing around streaming services. First Trigger had it on YouTube, then it was on Crunchyroll for a bit and now it’s on Netflix. It wouldn’t surprise me if someone shot a tweet to Trigger and told them it was a good idea since they actually listen to us English-speaking assholes (their next original show is already lined up for CR even though it has no premiere date so maybe they just like us crazy foreigners).
If it’s as good as you fellows say it is, the people would have to be crazy to try to market it to the Japanese. America or Bust!
So Netflix needs an incognito mode, is what you’re saying.

I’d prefer a machine that could actually scrub away my identity and reform me into a pale, inoffensive, unthinking being, but I’d take an incognito mode, sure.
Heartcatch Precure is a good time; it’s cute and feel-good and funny. I think you’d enjoy that one a lot Persona. If you look up PreCure on Sakugabooru you can find some truly impressive battle scenes (1, 2, 3). The first PreCure or two was directed by the guy who did DBZ and Airmaster so I think his background in extreme combat has influenced the direction of the franchise as a magical girl Kamen Rider. Sailor Moon Crystal didn’t have a chance in a post-PreCure world.
TBH I’m mainly interested because the blue Precure girl looks like Dawn from Pokemon. I can dream.
Heartcatch is my favorite and is probably also the best one to watch for people that have never watched a Precure series before.
You should watch Heartcatch because the magical macguffins the show is based around are literally pooped out every episode and it deserves credit just for that.
Yeah HeartCatch is the best I watched so far, the art was excelent and the show take focus on dealing with problems so every episode has a bit of drama that keep the show fresh.
the others I watched were Happiness Charge and Princess and a bit of Futari Wa
(btw hi people long time no see)
Ah. So that’s what you call Aska’s butt-thrust in TMNT: Tournament Fighters (SNES). It’s been two decades and I hadn’t come up with a better way to describe it than “Aska launches her ass at you, and her body comes along for the ride.”
I always knew it as a peach bomber due to Peach in smash bros and alittle bit of Rainbow Mika. It’s a thing in women’s wrestling in japan apparently.

fwiw you can delete items from netflix viewing history now but it takes 24 hours
super conveniently you can only do it on the desktop site, hidden away in the settings menu. thanks netflix
but you shouldn’t need it anyway since you don’t need to watch glitter force at all. instead watch a better 80’s/90’s mahou shoujo without the repetitive formalic structure, and you still get that cozy saturday morning cartoon feeling. theres also some resmbalence of character development and plot.
If this is an appeal to tell people to watch Princess Tutu, then I endorse it
could be an appeal to watch tweeny witches, who knows
tweeny witches is probably the best show people refuse to watch because the english language title is an abomination and the original (magical girl squad arusu) is hopelessly bland
To be honest, I haven’t been able to watch the last two Gundam series because anxiety gets in the way, and I really like to chew what I consider ‘real’ shows. I need to be in the mindset where I can dissect each scene, but that sort of active attention is exhausting when every muscle of your body is screaming GET OUT YOU’RE IN DANGER.
Low-tier anime might be the solution I’m looking for. Although I wouldn’t lump Princess Tutu under that label. I’ve heard some crazy stories about that shit. It’s like that one strain of weed that even that one friend who does weed a lot is sort of scared to try.
I’m also waiting for good enough antidepressants to come out such that I can watch Shadow Star. You know, the series I’ve heard described as “like Bokurano, except without all the hope.”
(I consider Bokurano, taken as a whole, to be a spiritually uplifting show. I can philosophize on this, but sometimes I wonder if the true answer is that I’m just that much of an asshole.)
Princess Tutu is really good, and basically not like any other magical girl show at all, for better or for worse.
