Tokyo Myuumyuu or MewMew or whatever

Yep, that sort of name only works for shôjo series ("for girls"). Aaanyway, I'm playing the PSX game based on that series now. It doesn't seem to be part of the series itself, thankfully. Shows they're actually making an effort to design the game ground up and all that.

Well, to cut it short: as in any magical girl anime, a bunch of young girls (junior high school students) use something like henshin (transformaiton) wands to dress frilly suits which sometimes don't seem to protect much (viz Sailor Moon). It's pretty much the case, but this time, it's frilly suit+animal attributes (in an animeish, Digi-Charat sort of way).

From what I've been able to read and see in the game, there's:
Ichigo (Strawberry) - Pink Cat
Retasu (Lettuce... yes, you heard it) - White Mermaid
Minto (Mint) - Blue Peacock?
Zakuro (Grenade) - Grey Wolf
Purin (errrr... Pudding?!) - Golden Monkey (or something of the sort)

And it is quite a strange game. Oh, and there must be a 6th Mew, too. When they transform, they change their name to something like Mew Ichigo - which is quite stupid, considering it doesn't hide much of your name. At least those Sailor Moon names hid your real name properly. Well, I guess not many people walk around with cat ears and a tail.

Basically: they went to a country villa (of course, this is Shôjo World we're living in: everyone's got a villa!) that probably one of the guys has. Oh yes, there's Shirogane Ryo (the blond sporty kind of guy) and Keiichiro (the polite, French chocolate cake-making type). Not to relax: apparently to recollect some DNA data from a specific animal in the island. Which they don't know about. It's supposed to be similar to the sort of stuff they use for transformations.

Don't ask me in which cromosome they store the clothes. Really, don't.

Yeah, the story is pretty pink-colored and quite silly sometimes, but the game is actually rather entertaining, being based on a manga and all.
