Saban Brands has released a first-look at its new original kids’ series for Netflix, Glitter Force, which will debut on the streaming service worldwide (excluding Asia) on December 18. The series is an adapted version of Japanese anime Smile PreCure!, and will launch with a 20-episode first season.
Glitter Force follows five preteen girls who learn they are a destined to be a legendary superhero squad. As the Glitter Force, the fabulous friends transform from ordinary school girls into super-powered cool girls to defend Earth from evil fairytale villains. The team always manages to win the day with the power of friendship.
It’s like we’re back in the 90’s/early 2000’s, except with better voice work.
But Smile pretty cure was release in 2012-2013 xD
Such a stellar voice cast for this!
My first reaction was- Another Sailor Moon Knockoff?!
My second reaction was- why does this look so much like Madoka Magica like literally no kidding!
Worse is an English Dub of precure that they completely messed up
I grew up watching sailor moon. This to me is a knock off of sailor moon, sorry. The only difference is it is fairytale monsters instead of dark moon/evil card characters. Everything else from the way they change, to the tiara magic, to the fluffy lamb maschot, to the goofy moments and even the hair color and styles is no different then sailor moon. Its even based on the power of love and friendship. Now I’m NOT knocking the show. I watched it and I thought for younger generations who didn’t watch sailor moon, it is a very good morale based show, that I think young girls could learn from. If I had a daughter I’d be all about her watching it so it is something from her generation to remember. It’s great voice and animation, colorful and happy go lucky and upbeat, so yes I do like the show. It is however, a copy cat of sailor moon sorry.
I thought the same thing….even the opening is the same. The very fist episode she is late to class, like sailor moon…. and I think on episode 3 or 4… the little lamb calls her “bun head” …. I like this for kids though, sailor moon has some adult content. Watching it made me miss Sailor Moon!
I mean, to be fair all magical girl shows are ‘knock offs’ of Sailor Moon.
Sailor Moon was not the first or last magical girl show but rather just one of a very popular genre in Japan. All the things you’ve listed are elements of magical girl shows…
All I know that sailor moon is the best and there’s no show that can replace it and not even crystal. The original sailor moon I love and there’s no words that can explain how much I love sailor moon. I didn’t grew up in the 90 and it was my mom who presented to me sailor moon. I prefer watching the 200 episodes in Spanish then English because the Spanish really matches with the characters personality, emotions, and actions, etc. The sailor moon crystal I personally don’t like just because of seeing the art and how the characters look so stiff. Watching the crystal one would just bring me disappointments. Like I said before there’s no show like crystal or glitter force and etc, that can replace sailor moon. SAILOR MOON WOULD ALWAYS BE IN MY HEART FOREVER. Everything about sailor moon I really love and always will. Sailor moon will live forever in the hearts of all its fan.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
By the way I’m 16 and it has been 2-3 tears that I don’t see sailor moon. When school finishes and I’m in summer I will go in my second time watching all the sailor moon 200 episodes. I will start seeing sailor moon every year if possible which I believe it is possible since ill do anything to see sailor moon. Over the summer I will also see Candy Candy, another show my mom presented to me. My other anime favorite shows are pokemon, and avatar: the last airbender.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Overall that doesn’t mean I hate crystal or glitter force or any other magic girl show that wants to make it similar to sailor moon but differently and their own way. It just mean that I love Sailor moon more than anything else.
