Lighthearted, silly show for those who like cartoon frenemy dynamics such as Sam Sheepdog and Ralph Wolf or LazyTown or Team Rocket. Despite the magical girl premise, the real star of the show is the hapless nominal villain Chroma, who is as handsome as Alucard from Castlevania yet as much of a mostly harmless softie as James from Pokémon. But only mostly, as he does win over his enemies every so often, albeit from his own evil organization rather than his supposed enemy Berry Blossom. In the end, this is not a show that is going to make big changes in the world or anything despitemisleading initial hype about this heralding a magical girl renaissance. In the tradition of many other gag manga (see also: The Way of the Househusband), all it wants to do is to put a smile on your face with its goofy, outlandish premise. Its roots are quite apparent in the way multiple episodes are really just a few short manga chapters strung together, rapidly jumping from one situation to another with only the thinnest veneer of an overarching plot. So maybe not something that necessarily translates the best to anime format, but it did make me want to check out more of the manga, so I guess, mission accomplished.
