This gives me huge Ichigo Mashimaro vibes. I can't wait for the first episode.

The visuals look fantastic! Smile After having watched Strawberry Marshmallow, I'm sure I'll have fun with Mitsuboshi Colors.

Mitsuboshi Colors has some similarities to Ichigo Mashimaro but it has more of a plot "clothesline" with the "justice organization" named "Colors" whereas Ichigo Mashimaro really is just girls goofing around without much of anything stringing the story along (aside from a couple of episodes that have a little more story weight). Not that "Colors" is exactly a super serious organization, if you enjoy girls just goofing around, there's plenty of that in Mitsuboshi Colors too.

I've said it a couple of times before but there's also a touch of Yotsuba&! in Mitsuboshi Colors in terms of the girls' interactions with various adults in the area in and around Ueno Park whereas, aside from a couple of teachers and Ana's mother, adults almost never appear in Ichigo Mashimaro other than as single-appearance shopkeepers and salesmen. (Okay, there's also the old man from the restaurant who becomes a bit of a recurring gag in the anime but I think he only appeared in the chapter of the manga that the restaurant episode was based upon if I remember correctly.)

Also, I don't think Mitsuboshi Colors have tons of (not blatant, but clearly sexualized) fanservice, unlike Ichigo Mashimaro.
