I always wanted to watch Cartoon Network/Toonami back then, but my family didn't have cable, so I didn't have much exposure to the Magical Girl genre until a few years ago. And Women are amazing, and they can have a lot of influence for good in the world! A lot of media has traditionally shown...

Yeah, it's tricky to find places to watch older anime. I don't remember how I found it, but I remember watching the first episode of Sally the Witch once. It was very silly! It was more of a straight-forward children's comedy sort of show. And wow, you have a lot more experience with Magical...

When I first became interested in Magical Girl anime I was surprised by how many series are out there! Are most of your favorite anime from the 90's, or do you have some favorites from other decades too?

It sounds like a fun show! So did you get into Wedding Peach through the anime or the manga first? And how did you get introduced to it?

I just looked up the opening, and it looks very 90's! I mean that in the best possible way, I have a lot of nostalgia for 90's anime style. As far as romance in Magical Girl things goes my first thought is Sailor Moon with Usagi and Mamoru, though there's also an emphasis on romance in Full...

Having a wedding theme is definitely unique for a Magical Girl manga/anime! How do they use weddings as a theme exactly? Is it mainly a visual theme, or do actual weddings happen? And how much emphasis is put on the love/romantic aspect versus the focus that is put on friendship?

I don't know very much about Wedding Peach, but what do you like about it? Also, what makes Wedding Peach unique or special when comparing it to other Magical Girl Manga/Anime? Full disclosure: I'm fairly busy right now and probably won't actually get around to watching the show any time soon...

Actually it looks like you made a Wedding Peach thread a long time ago. I'll just ask you about it there!

Nice! Before coming to Japan I had only been to Mexico and Canada (I'm originally from the U.S., so not too far). A lot of my experience with magical girl related things has been through Pretty Cure, but I've seen some Sailor Moon and a couple of other shows. I don't know very much about Wedding...

Have you visited any other countries/studied any cool languages? Also sometimes I get carried away talking about subjects I'm interested in (in this case different cultures and languages), so to avoid turning this into a long discussion completely unrelated to magical-girl related things...

Nice to meet you too! It's been really fun getting to live in Japan. My wife and I love learning about different languages and cultures too, and she was actually a nanny in Italy for a few months! She said the food was delicious.

I need to get around to watching Go! Princess Precure at some point. I've heard a lot of good things about it!

Uh-oh, if you're too old to be here I'm in trouble! Let's just say I'm still in my 20's ;) ...But I may not be for too much longer.

I enjoyed it a lot! I LOVE the visual design. All the cartoony space imagery was fun and I thought the visual design for the characters was fantastic. The music was fun too! I liked how un-phased Hikaru was by all the crazy things happening, and I liked Lala quite a bit as well. I thought...

Welcome! I'm also a fan of Precure. I just saw the first episode of Star Twinkle and it was really fun! Have you seen it yet?

Homura is definitely my favorite from Madoka Magica! I also love her dedication.

I'm fairly new as well, but welcome!

From any manga, anime, game, etc., who is your favorite Magical Girl character, and why?

I've still got a ways to go, but I'm enjoying Aria's story so far. I like the creepy library setting, and I feel like they do a good job building up atmosphere!

My impression is that they do that at the start of every year to try to get fans of the past season (in Japan at least, mostly little girls) interested in and excited about the new series and characters. At least I'm pretty sure I remember seeing something about a crossover movie with the Huggto...
