So it's basically Aikatsu and Pretty Cure mashed into one, only live-action. They even have the color schemes and everything.

Still living up to his "I don't care so long as I get paid" persona.

There's not gonna be a practical effect in this entire thing, is there?

Also kinda weird how all the evil henchmen are clearly not fully Japanese.

Oh gee-another magical girl series! Just what we need-live action or animated. In case you can't tell I'm being very sarcastic.

I'm happy to see this tokusatsu magical girl show is doing well and I that hope we get see more shows likes this in the future and maybe Toei might jump in the bandwagon. It has been long since we had any tokusatsu magical girl show since the days of the Toei Fushigi Comedy Series.

They didn't license the first season, so probably not.

No but since Miike is involved, needlessly terrible CGI is guarenteed.
