Well, basically they get infused with endangered species/'red data' animals (Ultramarine lorikeet, Iriomote cat, Finless Porpoise, Grey wolf and a monkey that I forgot the name of, because it's orange...) and, well, the rest can be picked up from watching any episode... unless something else has been changed other than names and ages in the dub :D (other than the lack of emphasis on the environment).

The manga is so much better at explaining, so if you're willing to pay try and get a second hand copy of Tokyo mew mew...

http://mmpu.smuncensored.com/ Is a good site too.

*wishes it aired over here* Lucky. All i get is subs... :)

No you don't. Not the English dub anyway. It is bad. Not bad but it could've been better. It seems they just wanted to dub it and get it to the English speaking public ASAP. You know Pudding right? The one infused with a monkey? She's like Chinese or something in the original right? In the dub she's just as English or American as the rest of them. I've been told that in the original Ichigo doesn't obsess that much about Masaya because in the dub it's all she does!!!!! Also their transformations have been cut, edited, and censored and they cut a lot of stuff out usually because of three things: 1)Cultural differences (and that's why the dub isn't called Tokyo Mew Mew) 2)Time. I don't think they have as many commercial breaks as we do in Japan so the dubbers take out useless stuff just to fit the time frame 3)Along with cultural differences they take out dialouge and scenes that are inappropriate for certain audiences. Why do a lot of dubbers think that shows like Sailor Moon and Tokyo Mew Mew (excuse me, Mew Mew Power) are made for little girls and that only little girls are going to watch it. Tons of guys over who knows what age and girls too watch it. Hope that's enough to chew on for now. :wink:

Haven't been watching it recently, but I did enjoy it to an extent. The monkey girl (Kiki was it?) was the highlight of the series for me. I just have a thing for stupid and goofy characters.
Probably too busy to be here right now.

Everything came from nothing, therefore everything is nothing.

There's nothing to worry about.

Kikki and I are the most alike because we try to do everything for everyone else but I like Bridgette the most just because I love her outfit the best and I love her weapon. Zakuro/Renee's weapon is cool, too bad it looks like a cross so they had to make it a stick in the dub. Can't wait till tomorrow's episode!

In 3 anime that I've seen the smart one is never the leader. Sailor Moon, Tokyo Mew Mew and Magical Doremi, the ditzy and clumsy one is always the leader. And the leader is always the most guy obsessed. In Tokyo Mew Mew you have your typical personalities...ditzy, premadonna, smart one, the fun one...it's the team shoujo fomula (stole that one from Mew Mew Power Uncensored).
