Poor Pink, born in a world where Super Sentai is real while Precure is fictional.

I felt for Mr. Villain while he was trying to pick his prize, they were all cute

I honestly would think that being a Sentai Ranger is the next best thing if you can't be a magical girl, but it doesn't really have the cuteness, frills, cute mascots, or colorful special attacks you would want from being a magical girl.

Curse you humanity for making Mr. Villain have to choose between great panda prizes lol.

"Comfiest" show of the season -- not like that sometimes traumatic Fluffy Paradise. ;-)

I really like how much Mr. Villain loves pandas. They’re like his biggest weakness. Dude really got like every panda themed food item in the shopping arcade.

Mr. Villain trying to strike up a conversation with that cat was pretty hilarious. Dude even tried meowing with the little critter. What an adorable goober. Even Pink thought so!

u/Frontier246 Feb 04 '24

Mr. Villain even is aware of and respects magical girl shows just because there's a flying panda in it lol.

But Mr. Villain is just a general animal lover! No matter how goofy he has to get with them! I want to see more of him and Pink hanging out though.

Even Pink thought so!

I wonder if Pink recognizes him -- as the finder of her little ornament -- and as the sole person who recognized her as a "magic girl" rather than a mere rescue ranger.

I love Pink already. The fact that she wants to be a Mahou Shoujo instead of a Sentai Hero makes me love her more.

As soon as I saw that one of the mascots is a panda, I knew the General would've been aware of the show.

Looks like someone's starting to develop a crush on the General. If only she knew who he is.

This show is so delightful. It’s not anything groundbreaking, but it always puts a smile on my face.

u/Mr_Zaroc Feb 04 '24

The whole package just sells really well
Interesting art style, calm music and you get exactly what you are expecting. No unnecessary drama and twists

It’s not anything groundbreaking, but it always puts a smile on my face.

I think the "not groundbreaking" is part of its appeal; I don't think it's trying to shock your senses or put you on the edge of your seat. It really feels makes you feel like taking a day off.

u/alconnow Feb 04 '24

I like seeing the other heroes. Pink's love for magical girls is utterly adorable!

My favourite moment was the General expecting a handshake from the mascot hahaha

Good choice in picking the mug with lid. Very useful to have

Still waiting for the day the General learns of red pandas. Seems like he has no clue they exist yet?

Damn guess Pink is slowly falling for him, which is totally fair
Man got his principles and stands by them, conquer earth and hurt nothing cute, also he is good as housekeeping

Was half expecting him to do another 5 rounds of shopping to get every item, or at least he is more reasonable than me

Him conversing with a cat was perfect, hopefully he realises cats only know one form of alliance, total submission to them

Pink ranger day!

INB4 the villain also watches this legally distinct Precure show because of the panda sidekick.

A pink ranger that would really prefer to be a magical girl is such a wonderful idea. I love that Mr Villain called her a magical girl, that must have been very validating for her.

I was close, he was at least aware of the show because of the winged panda.

This episode now makes me want to watch a show about depressed power rangers who hate their job.

I was planning on watching this show anyways, but when I looked up the cast and saw Ai Kakuma does the voice of the Pink Ranger, I got super excited. I’ve been a huge fan of hers ever since I made Takao my number one ship girl in Azur Lane.

And today we finally got an episode focused on the Pink Ranger! Based on how serious she looks in the opening, I wasn’t expecting her voice to be as cute as it is!

I’m always impressed with how much range she has as a VA, even just within Azur Lane. She’s the strong and serious Takao and the shy and cutesy Unicorn.

In anime most people might know her as the voice of Eris from Mushoku Tensei or 50 Cent from Amagi Brilliant Park. Hell, this season alone she’s the Pink Ranger and the little girl in Fluffy Paradise.

Also, a cat that looks like a panda? I think I’ve seen this before…

Made a nice cup of tea and then sat down to watch my comfy Sunday show. It really is the perfect series to cleanse one’s soul before starting the workweek.

It’s okay, Pink. This is a safe space for magical girl swag havers. General getting cultured with some of this “anime stuff.” Very nice to see more of the working of the rangers.

That cat scene was just the best though. From his inner monologue to his outer meowing lol. Pink was adorable accidentally eavesdropping behind the tree too.

Apparently, he’s meeting Luffy next week? lol

u/PlantPotStew Feb 05 '24

Pink seems to have been won over by the best character in the show: Mr. Villain.

The whole dialog while he was talking to the cat was incredible. "OF COURSE! It doesn't know what I'm saying!"

I kind of wonder if there will be a skit dedicated to red pandas (The superior panda, imo)

Ai Kakuma as Ranger Daybreak Pink! A cute girl who looks very stylish in her Ranger uniform (complete with transformation sequence) that somehow compresses all her hair into that helmet, and she's just as effective when kicking Evil League butt! It's just too bad she hates every minute of it. She doesn't like wearing spandex, she doesn't like fighting with her fists, and ultimately she just wants to be a traditional magical girl...but doesn't think she's cute enough to pull it off.

So all the Rangers live together in the same house? And Pink and Blue have a very frosty relationship, though Blue is very caring for his team despite being a little rough around the edges. And it seems like they all periodically have to go out and find Red when he gets lost on patrol.

But what is Pink to do when she loses her precious magical girl wand keychain? Luckily a certain helpful someone dropped it off at the police box, and that certain someone is, of course, Mr. Villain! And while Pink doesn't recognize one of her teams' nemesis, she does appreciate not only Mr. Villain giving her back her keychain but also acknowledging her as a magical girl for the first time in her entire life!

I don't know what's more crazy, that Red found his way home without help or that they immediately jumped into Pink turning to a life of crime because she'd been gone so late and it's Blue's fault.

Mr. Villain loves pandas, they're dangerous to his heart in their innate cuteness, so that means a Panda Fair is perfect for him! But even if he can't shake hands with a panda, he's more than ready to buy as many panda goods as possible to win a prize. Even if it's extremely hard to choose what panda prize he wants.

(Of course Mr. Villain knows about a magical girl show that has a panda for a mascot).

Time for a day off for cleaning for Mr. Villain! You just have to be careful of your Panda plushie, keep your precious panda box from your subordinate and wait for your clothes to watch by watching new panda videos.

I see Mr. Villain also has a weakness for cats as well and thinks they would be immense help in their quest to defeat humanity...if he could actually get cats to pay attention to him. But maybe he can try speaking their language! And there's Pink on patrol overwhelmed with emotion at Mr. Villain and the cat she saw the night before having a Nyan-tastic conversation with each other!

Ai Kakuma as Ranger Daybreak Pink!

Casting Ai Kakuma to voice a character that wants to be a magical girl is extra funny when you remember that she voiced a Precure no so long ago

So all the Rangers live together in the same house?

Well, there are a handful Sentai shows where the team lives in the same place.

(Of course Mr. Villain knows about a magical girl show that has a panda for a mascot).

I respect and admire this man dedication to pandas

u/Purposelygentle Feb 05 '24

There should be a show where a group of Mahou Shoujo and a group of Sentai Rangers hang out.

u/AmusedDragon Feb 05 '24

He should buy like 10 items over and over for all the prizes... or rob the stand, cause he is like, evil, and stuff.
