what do i hate about mew mew power? well, the contrast, quality, and heavy editing. it should've been lightly edited or given to some other dubbing companies, like ocean group or adv. Attachments:

Here's what I have to say about the character's voices: Zoey: She sounds like an obnoxious brat... Corina: She sounds like a SPOILED brat... Bridget: Ehh... Kikki: Yet again, a brat... Renee: Ok. Now she sounds depressed. Elliot: It got annoying after a while... Wesley: Not a bad try... I guess... Dren: AAAAAAGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! *runs screaming for the hills* Sardon: I never understood why he has a british acent... Tarb: EEEEKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *runs away screaming again* Deep Blue: I have to admit, it does sound a LITTLE better than the munchkin sounding-one in Tokyo Mew Mew...

^ I couldn't agree more lol. The Mews I got used to, and Tart was okay, but why Pai was English I also have no idea, and the first time I heard 'Dren' I was just like -eyetwitch- REALLY?! I was soo mad, Kisshu's my fave character lol. Yeah, that's another thing though: why change their names? I mean, yeah, it needed some editing, like the whole idol thing with Zakuro woulnd't have made since to some kids, but just because we're American doesn't make us so stupid we won't like your anime if you don't give them American names. x.x'' And, as far as other studios go I think Funimation would've been much better, I really liked what they did with Fruits Basket. But that's just me. I haven't really had any experience with dub studios other than that, so.
Anyway, I'll join soon, but right now I'm feeling lazy, so I'm a guest lol.

Personally, I think Dren's voice suited him, but that's just a personal opinion. I also liked Bridget's voice and Renees voice. At times, I found Zakuro's a little to nasal. What I personally hate the most about Mew Mew Power is....that it didn't have a proper ending and they said "to be continued..." when it never was to be continued. In a way, though, I think it ended in a nice way. After all, Elliot did say "Well, I think it's safe to say our girls just saved the world." It's kind of peaceful. Attachments:

what i hate about dren is .... well, he sometimes acts like a big goof. there is no meaning to that, he's just "that" big goofy perverted alien whom finds zoey TOOOOOOOOOOOO irresistible. besides, if dren would rape zoey, and if i was in this series, i would serious outsmart him and beat him up till gives; then it'll be funny. lol

Was used to be a creepy, cutesy child voice got turned into... GARY OAK! The thing is, Taruto could be very creepy when he wanted to be. He had a cutesy, eerie voice that, when combined with the right words and expression ("He might even take him apart and break him!"), he could be a just-plain creepy character. But if Gary Oak tried to be creepy? I would laugh. Good lord. The voices... XD BWAHAH! The voices! I love them and hate them! It's like a parody... "How dare she choose that fool! I mean look at me!" "I'm so tired I can't even lift this teacup." Though some of the lines were epic...

Sooooooooooooooooooooo many things wrong with Mew Mew Power... I'll list a few of them. 1. They changed the names. 2. Most of the characters didn't even have surnames/maiden names/last names 3. The voices... made my head explode. They didn't fit at all! 4. That Renee was named after a real person, Renee Roberts. 5. The story was so messed up that it was hard to follow, especially as a child 6. That Dren(Kisshu/Quiche) is Nerd spelled backwards, and Tarb(Taruto) is Brat spelled backwards, but Sardon(Pai) is just plain gibberish and doesn't mean anything special. Makes me wonder why they named him Sardon when everybody else was named insults spelled backwards. 7. The heavy editing was not needed. They even gave Zakuro a bra in her transformation, you know, because her boobs were shrouded in light, 4KIDS thought kids would look at them on purpose! And Bridgette didn't even get a transformation! 8. That all of this crap was done to make it 'suitable for children' even though it was already suitable for children. 9.Bridgette... was trying to make friends just to be popular... um... no. It doesn't fit. Even at the very beginning of episode 4, Bridgette was more similar to how she was in the original TMM. Which means... 4KIDS failed even more! 10. That 4KIDS did it. I don't know why, but when I saw the 4KIDS logo, before the show even got passed the intro, I already knew it was going to suck.
I'm going to stop there, before everybody falls asleep from reading.

Actually, the only human character that didn't have a last name in the dub was Mark XD. And Sardon is short for the word Sardonic.

Mark didn't deserve a last name XD but Mark was the only main character who didn't have a last name, so of the others didn't either... I don't even remember their first names @_@
...? Themes?

Here are the names and ages:
Zoey Hanson - Age 16(originally 13) Corina Bucksworth - Age 16(originally 12) Bridget Verdant - Age 15(originally 13) Kikki Benjamin - Age 14(originally 10) Renee Roberts - Age 17(originally 15) Elliot Grant - Age 16(originally 15) Wesley J. Coolridge III - Age 17(originally 21) Mark - Age 16(originally 13)
As for theme naming. In the original, the Mew Mews and aliens were named after food(Strawberry, Mint, Lettuce, Pudding, Pomegranate, Quiche, Pie and Tart. Even the alien in the PS game was named after the French words for King Cake). In the English version the aliens are named after personality traits that are unappealling. Even Cyniclons comes from the word Cynical XD. There's also the pun with Corina's last name(she's rich, we get it XD). And Bridget's last name means Green.

Those are the main characters, though. There are others... who's names I can't remember... Zoey's friends at school, in episode 5 of In a Nutshell, one of them said 'Wow, I have dialogue!' And Bridgette's friends in episode 3 didn't have last names in the Japanese version, so I doubt 4KIDS gave them a last name. There are also some people who don't have names at all XD
OK, well, I know that Renee Roberts is this guy that explored what is now the U.S.A., most kids learn about him in... 5th grade or something. There's also this other person, I don't remember exactly what (s)he did, but there was some other (famous?) person named Renee Roberts... Oh yeah, Ringo means Apple, and Berrii means Berry(OK, the last one was a no-brainer XD ) And yes, Keiichiro is very happy XD

In the defense of her friends, I doubt a lot of people wouldn't have known Moe and Miwa's last names if Aoyama didn't bring them up in episode 23 XD.
