I've started watching Yes 5 recently and I've got to say, so far, it's by far my least favourite season. Aside from the characters being extremely one dimensional, the romance plot is really unsettling. Not only is this guy really a talking raccoon plushie that the girls occasionally carry around, he's also their school teacher who frequently dashes out of class with one or more of them or is late because he's busy doing things with them.
What is it with Japan and thinking grown men dating middle school students is romantic? I'm pretty sure someone would have called the cops by the third episode. |

Considering he's a teacher, he'd have to be at least 5 years older than the girls and that's being really generous, but I'm guessing they avoided giving him an official age specifically to avoid that issue.
I don't think there's much of a disconnect between the civilian and hero sides, but there's definitely a huge problem just keeping the characters personalities straight. Coco (and Nuts to a lesser degree) are completely different people when they're in fairy form. Rin changes from being the typical sporty tomboy to being mushy-mushy over boys and wanting to make jewellery. There's even an episode where the characters worry about Nozomi (the lazy, scatterbrained, klutz) because "she's never late!". And Milk is a terrible, terrible person who isn't remotely endearing. She does nothing but cause trouble for Nozomi, blame her for things that go wrong, she steals from her, insults her, refuses to apologise, all while the other characters are just like "don't be so hard on Milk!". I'd always heard that this was one of the more popular seasons and I'm really struggling to see why. Perhaps it's just more well regarded in Japan. |

Been watching Happiness Charge and I will say... I am enjoying it so far and I am absolutely in love with Aino Megumi aka Cure Lovely, The big love spreading throughout the world!
The villains are really enjoyable and I just love with Cures in this. Cure Princess is also very adorable and she reminds me of when I was in middle school. Like a female version of me basically. ![]() And Ribbon is just so adorable and loveable! She's always encouraging Hime and then we have Blue-sama~! Love the guy. But... I'm starting to wonder if Deep Mirror is Blue or if he is like an evil version of him, since in the mirror, it is obviously Blue's size and appearance. But I will just have to find out... ![]() I could go on for hours talking about Cure Lovely, Princess, Honey and Fortune but I can't post long posts. ![]() (Happiness Charge 4ever!) |

So, anybody gonna watch Princess?
It was a serviceable debut, nothing really stood out for me til the fight scene, which was really fluid and dynamic, also the animation does seem more consistent than HapCha. |
