Jewelpet

Now I watched ALL episodes of this particular season and I watched half of the rest aside the last two because it did not appeal to me and I intially just wanted to continue because I wanted to see Dian. Turns out he was a minor character. I like Tour instead now but its a bummer because I was hyped to see his story if he had one. Turns out hes just some reused 1 in a lifetime minor villian for every season and then the modern jewelpet just made him a 1 off filler cameo. That's the problem with the show... I'll get to ... that.

This goes out to the entirity of Jewelpet. Don't watch this. Its okay to watch if youre a young girl, but I see a lot of men in their late 20's watching this and "enjoying it" which spawns a lot of.. art of the animal characters who arent even generally furry and the minors in the show. Stop. I dont know how this show is still popular and how no ones mentioning this but it really needs to stop. Its a supposed niche made for kids and it gets stuff like that constantly?

The story... All of the jewelpet anime's stories are really generic. They're all predictable and if you've seen Precure then youd be familiar with the stories. So by default they're "Good" but not in a way that its their own. The jewelpets are just mascots/fairies and the main characters are just your flavor of the day pretty cure warriors. At the very least the show's equivalent of a mascot have more screentime. EVen if its character development is a mess, i'll give it that. Overall Jewelpet is really just there to rival Pretty Cure. It did okay, its popular af but it wont hold up to Pretty Cure.

The characters are downright ugly. The humans look real uncanny and they look more like an 80's anime character than a mid 2000's. Their expressions give off that really bad Clannad-esque expressions especially in Twinkle. Don't get me started with the Jewelpets. I dont understand how furries are so attracted to these... things. For starters, their main thing. Their eyes. They're basically 70% of their big ol head. They're really weird and uncanny to look at. They have unnecessary shine. I feel like the jewelpets of the Black Class have the "better" eye designs since they only have 1 shine rather than 3.. 4.. sometimes 100 if theyre close up.

the jewelpet's wear these necklaces. I dont know what they are supposed to be half the time. Dian has the orb, the bunny thing looks like a cherry but I dont understand the rest. I suppose Larimar's a musical symbol. The jewelpets also have these designs to look like certain animals but they never actually look like it. Only a few actually do. Overall the character designs are awful.

Now the backgrounds. I can see they're trying to do a cotton candy like artstyle or something. A lot of color. mostly pink but god it hurts my eyes. The backgrounds seem to be made out of pastel airbrushes or something. real ugly. Theres also sparkle like transitions that also blind me. The one in kira deco is fine though. The planet thing. Most of the time its overall awful but some its okay.

Sound?

idk but the sounds remind me of the pokemon in smash.

enjoyment?

i guess I did enjoy garnet... for.. reasons... no. 0/10. Garnet's ass is 10/10 though.
