UK viewers with Sky platform can see this for free without subscription on KIDS genre listings channels 626 and 629 respectively. Pop Girl is run by the same people what gave us Anime Central a few years ago. Pop Girl has also been repeating some of the Mew Mew Power (Tokyo Mew Mew) episodes for quite some time now. Wink

Does this mean there's hope for Pretty Cure to run in the States? *spoilers* Not a chance.

You can also get it on Freesat, but like Anime Central and Propeller/The Anime Network, there's no way to get it on cable or freeview.

Oh, cool. I've been curious about this series, and the genre it belongs to. The only Magical Girl show I've seen is Nurse Witch Komugi.

It's the same one that aired in Canada. I don't know why it hasn't come to the States.

The US doesn't just swallow whatever Toei throws at it. Laughing

Yeah it it but from the reports of it I've seen it's no Sailor Moon million of edits job. From what I can tell it's got a few changes here and there like names, references to food and such, but isn't too bad a dub when it comes to the acting and characters personalities are still the same.

I've seen some episodes and while the name changes and new intro & outro would annoy some who have watched it subbed first, there's not that many edits that would make it qualify as a [DiC] Sailor Moon or 4Kids-like hackjob so i approve plus it being a Blue Water dub is always a good thing. Smile

Why? Did Sailor Moon leave that bad a taste then? That wasn't Toei's fault, thank DIC for that.

Nah, Sailor Moon is fine. DIC did the first 2 seasons, then Cloverway and Toei did the next 2.
