| Anyone have a series they think deserves more love? Well, here's a thread for us to fangirl/convince people into reading them! I'll post mine later... |

| ALL OF THEM. Except Sailor Moon, Precure and Madoka.
Particularly Ojamajo Doremi, Princess Tutu and Otogi-Jushi Akazukin. |

Particularly the ones that haven't been subbed, like the original Minky Momo and Esper Mami. |

| more specifically of an answer, Himitsu no Akko-chan for me. since the 1962 manga, It's been remade FOUR times. once in 1969 with 94 episodes, another in 1988 w/ 61 eps, 1998 w/44 eps., and lastly a Live-Action movie in 2012. so far the '88 'movies' have been fansubbed (albeit hard to download) and the Live-Action has too (probably because its new and people like the pretty j-drama actors) and that's it. heck, forget fansubbed, I can't even find raws of these shows. I've always wanted to watch Akko-chan, and I'm so entirely sad no one even gives her a glance. atleast Sally the Witch has some street cred for being the first MG show, so people feel like they have to know who she is. maybe Akko just needs to be a precure  (art found on this blog http://osomatsuri.cocolog-nifty.com/ ) |

| One show that I wish was more appreciated is Mahou Tsukai Tai (Magic Users Club)
It's in the boys/shonen demographic, and I know those have a bad reputation, but its probably the only show I've seen that successfully blends the heartwarming lessons and drama we expect from our favorite girly magical girls, while still adding in an extra spice that's expected of Shonen.
It's also pretty funny, and it has fanservice for BOTH genders, hallelujah! (that's all I ask really. If you feel the need to add jokes and excitement involving human anatomy, make it funny and for everyone please)
AND it has designs by Ikuko Itoh! (Sailor Moon, Princess Tutu, Fan Fan Pharmacy) so it even LOOKS good.
here's a nice little write up/review about it: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/buried-treasure/2008-08-21/magic-user-club |

| The series I think that needs more love is Wedding Peach because it's not a very well known series and it's a very good series too. The Manga has a very good story line and so does the Anime even though the Anime has some changes from the Manga. In my honest opinion Wedding Peach is a very underappreciated and underrated series that needs more love and to be more known too. |

| Yeah that is one of the reasons why some people don't like it and why the series is so underrated, but the problem is that some people don't give Wedding Peach a chance and that they always want to call it a Sailor Moon Ripoff/Copy which makes me very angry because I am a huge fan of Wedding Peach and I love the series very much just like I love the Sailor Moon series. As a fan of both Wedding Peach and Sailor Moon I will say that Wedding Peach is not a Sailor Moon Ripoff/Copy because it is it's own series and that it has a different storyline too. You should really give Wedding Peach a try it's a very good series and I definitely recommend it too. As for the negative comments that are posted online most of them are from the haters who never watched the Anime or read the Manga or who only just watched like one and/or two episodes instead of from people who actually watched or read the entire series. So don't pay attention to the haters and their comments. Watch or read the series to see what you think and see if you like it too.

| Yeah that is true that some people also call other Magical Girl shows that are made after Sailor Moon ripoffs/copies too which is very ridiculous because not every Magical Girl series is like Sailor Moon. Not to mention that Sailor Moon wasn't even the first Magical Girl series that is made because the first ones that were made are Princess Knight, The Secrets of Akko-chan, and Sally The Witch which were made back in the 50s and 60s. It's true that Sailor Moon is the first Magical Girl series that changed the Magical Girl genre and made it better than before since the 90s because back in the 80s, 70s, 60s, and 50s the Magical Girl genre wasn't about transforming into superheroes and saving the world since it's was about normal girls who have magical powers and use them in their daily lives instead of using them to save the world back then. I agree that there is nothing wrong with creating a Magical Girl series as a long as it's original and that it has a good storyline along with good characters. I also agree about Nintendo changing a lot of video game genres and making them amazing too since we all see like a lot of fighting games and stuff, plus nobody complains about video games having the same genre because as long as the game is good then they will play it. Yeah haters can hate because their opinion in the end doesn't matter. Oh okay you can watch the series when you have the chance. |
