The storyline is straightforward. There's a girl named Ichigo who falls for a guy named Aoyama. He seemed to like her from the start. :). Anyway, while at the museum or somewhere similar, an earthquake strikes. She's with four girls she doesn't know, and then BOOM! She's confused but recalls seeing a cat. :) Cool, right? :D She transforms into Mew Mew and, with Ryou's help (who’s quite attractive), she sets out to save the world. She has to find other Mew Mews: Mint, Lettuce, Zakuro, and Pudding. My favorite was always Zakuro; no surprise there, I was twelve and captivated by her stunning figure. :D The Mew Mews must stop Kisshu, Tart, and Pie from helping Deep Blue return and destroy Earth. There are countless funny moments. :D Like when Ichigo can’t control herself and turns into a cat, among others.
The plot was incredibly engaging for a twelve-year-old me. :D But reading it recently, I found it rather juvenile. Still, I believe it's a fantastic manga story for girls aged 10-15. :D
The artwork was decent, but I was annoyed by the noses. When characters looked left or right, their noses resembled something from "The Voldemort Family". :D
I adored every character in this manga. Every single one. Zakuro was my favorite initially, but after rereading it a few weeks ago, I think Kisshu is now my top pick. I found myself thinking, "Ichigo, you silly catwoman. He loves you. He's great! You don't deserve him." :D
I thoroughly enjoyed this manga. :D So, I fairly rated it 6/10. It wasn't the best thing I've ever read, nor the worst. It was pretty good.
This is indeed a charming manga. It follows the classic magical girl genre but incorporates an intriguing element of endangered species. The blend isn't bad at all, as the characters exhibit traits of their respective species. Unfortunately, that's where the depth ends. The girls' attacks don't symbolize the animals they were infused with, and the colors don't quite hit the mark either. For a series that emphasizes powers derived from endangered species, it could have delved deeper. That said, I still enjoyed the manga. The characters are endearing, and their names are surprisingly memorable (though I can't fathom why anyone would name their child Lettuce or Mint—perhaps it makes more sense in Japanese). The storyline is engaging too. There's a point where you start questioning who the antagonist is, but revealing that would spoil the fun. When the girls are together, they act like any ordinary group of friends, displaying even more chemistry than the Sailor Scouts from Sailor Moon. This reminds readers that despite having superpowers, they're still regular girls who might use their abilities for personal gain. I wish some of the drama had been trimmed to focus more on the characters. The story heavily revolves around Ichigo, and I would have loved to see more development for the other girls. The recurring drama involving Ichigo and the 'love triangle' gets tiresome at times.
The artwork has a cute aesthetic that I actually prefer over some older magical girl manga. The designs of the girls' outfits are fantastic, blending cuteness with a touch of sexiness. The illustrations are fluid throughout the manga, and the layout complements the action scenes well. Overall, while there's room for improvement, this manga offers an enjoyable experience with its unique premise and lovable characters.
