I don't usually watch comedies, but this obscure show really surprised me. It uses its theme in such a refreshing and entertaining way. The animation stands out mostly due to the visual gags, which are well done, and the voice acting is superb. Just don't go into this expecting much of a plot or action. Berry and Chroma only fight because they enjoy playing their roles, not because they actually hate each other. Despite this, the characters take their roles very seriously, especially Chroma. He's a villain who wouldn't harm a fly but he's the funniest character in the whole show. Berry Blossom is a sweetand naive girl who can also be feisty. And Chizuko is the rational one of the trio, except when she's in fangirl mode. However, she doesn't take as much initiative as I hoped she would. Side characters like the mascot Mashirou and Chizuko's grandpa get some time to shine too. Over the course of the show, we learn more about the world and even explore the characters' backstories. Watching a magical girl show from the perspective of a villain's sidekick was also fun.

I didn't think it was possible to find a wholesome magical girl parody, but this show is just that. It's a shame that it doesn't cover the whole manga, so it doesn't really have a conclusion. Even so, if you enjoy subversion of tropes and goofy characters being goofy, it might just be your cup of tea.
