Sailor Moon

Alt titles: Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon

Sailor Moon main image

Life can be tough when you're a teenager. Enter Tsukino Usagi, an average, if somewhat clumsy, junior high student whose voracious appetite for sweets and capacity for tears are offset by her enthusiasm for life. Her normal existence is suddenly turned upside down when a talking cat named Luna comes into her life. Suddenly, Usagi finds herself with the ability to transform into the superhero known as Sailor Moon. Fighting the occasional monster may be the least of her worries, though...

Another magical girl 5-team, Sailor Moon follows the same sort of plot as Tokyo Mew Mew, but with a less eco-conscious theme. Often thought of as the 'original' magical girl team, Sailor Moon was very popular and often mimicked.

It galls me to recommend Sailor Moon at all, but it would be ridiculous to ignore the obvious similarities between the shows, with young girls, magical transformations, cheesy battles and cheesy humor (not that I don't like cheesy humor... ^_^), etc.

This is an obvious recommendation. I think that anyone that watches Tokyo Mew Mew will immediately think of Sailor Moon (I say this, because Sailor Moon came first). You will certainly like one if you like the other though. Sailor Moon and Tokyo Mew Mew both involve a clumsy, somewhat dim-witted main character that discovers powers to fight evil. The main theme of "love conquers all!" is here, and things turn somewhat corny; you also have the henshin element - even the five soldiers!

EternalSnow

Sailor Moon and Mew Mew Power are very similar in the whole outline of the show. In both series the girls are "chosen" one by one, both have those cheesy transformation intros (you have to know what I mean). Both main girls are hopelessly in love, and both of their loves have a special little secret of their own (although neither of them really know it). Also, both of the men in each series help the girls in battling the evil villains... you get where I am going with this, I hope! Same stories, different characters; both are great. ^.^

When I started watching Tokyo Mew Mew I got reminded of Sailor Moon. They're both magical girl anime where the 5 heroines have to protect the world from the bad guys. They also have a monster of the week formula and the main bad guy always gets away at the end of the episode.

Fans of magical girl shows will probably be overjoyed to watch both Sailor Moon and Tokyo Mew Mew. Both shows focus on ordinary girls recieving extrodinary powers, giving them the ability to transform into super heroes and defend the earth from aliens. Both shows balance saving the world with balancing your love life, friendships and school. Each series is upbeat and colorful, and the characters are cute and distinctive!

Ran

Tokyo Mew Mew is a condensed version of Sailor Moon. It has the same characters, a team with five members (each with a different color, weapon, and attack), and transformations; everything sounds so alike that it could be called plagiarism. The enemies are also similar: there's a baddie in love with the main magical girl, and a bishonen who fights for his loved one and saves her at the last second.

Sailor Moon is longer and therefore has more variety concerning the enemies, it shows the evolution of the characters over a longer period, and lets us see how they grow powerful and wiser as they age.

Hachiko

Both series are about girls who have become superheroes. They learn how to use their powers and learn to get along together.

chii

One special girl with 4 of her friends are given magical powers to vanquish evil. If you liked one you'll like the other.

Shoutai

Both from the magical girl genre, they're both really easy to get into. Even though the episodes can get a bit repetativ, they're both worth checking out.

dokurochan

In both shows 5 girls get the power to transform into superheroes so that they can fight aliens from another planet.

Aburi

Tokyo Mew Mew and sailor moon are the definitive sailor soldier anime. They have near identicial plots, themes, characters and cutscenes.

The differences are that Mew Mew is much much shorter, and I think a little sweeter. Sailor moon is a good bit deeper despite it's grade school feel.

wolfangel87

Sailor Moon and Tokyo Mew Mew are magical girl animes.  They each have underlying elemental themes and transformations that the heroine and her friends make.  A mysterious figure that continues to help the main character also appears in each to give her strength and courage to continue on her way.  Both are about saving the planet from an evil organization that is trying to corrupt it.  The characters each have parallels within them making the animes very similar to each other.

iKaity

Both animes are centered on a girl who one day finds out that the fate of the world rests in her hands. With the help of their friends they come to save the day!

If you like one, you'll like the other :)

Garylikesmanga

Romance is an underlying theme of both series. Both series are team based. The teams are made up of girls with mostly element based powers and they fight the monster of the week each episode. Both series have similar characters. Usagi and Ichigo are the lead characters. Both are lovestruck, and considerably ditzy. Mamoru and Masaya are the romantic interests of the main girls. Both are mysterious, brooding, and share a similar role. Ami is similar to Lettuce, the brainy, slightly reserved member of the team. Both share powers related to water. Rei and Mint are both externally abrasive, especially toward the lead character. Makoto and Pudding are comedic and athletic. Minako and Zakuro are both famous before joining their respective team. Both hide what they feel on the inside.

Card Captor Sakura

Card Captor Sakura main image

Kinomoto Sakura never imagined that by opening a book in her father's library, she'd be responsible for releasing wild magic into the world, yet that's exactly what she did. Too powerful to be let loose on the world, the magical Clow cards were sealed away long ago by their creator, Clow Reed. But all is not lost! For the guardian beast, Keroberos, was sealed along with the cards. Can Sakura, with the help of Keroberos, retrieve the cards before they wreak havoc on the town?

Both series revolve around a somewhat 'ditzy' girl, who later comes to possess special powers, which she must use to save mankind. Both of these series are also must-see's for those who like watching anime about good 'ol fashioned teenage-girl crushes.

sam222242

Both series show the friendship of the heroines and the other characters.

They both are about magical and things that would'nt happen in the real world with small pets that help the heroines out.

These two animes are a perfect match.

Kari5

Both these shows are wonderful magical girl shows. The main characters, suddenly given magical powers, must save the world with the help of their friends! And of course, there's mystery and romance!

nihonotaku

The similarities between Tokyo Mew Mew and CCSakura are so striking that I almost have to wonder if the former was intentionally based on the latter. That said, they both manage to maintain enough differences that one can watch both and still be interested in each. Cute mahou shoujo animes with a light-hearted feel.

Hyper Police

Hyper Police main image

In a post-apocalyptic future, mankind now lives alongside demons, spirits and other supernatural beings. Everyone is interested in coexistence, but every society has rotten apples. The bounty hunter group "Hyper Police" does its part to catch and contain criminals, and with employees such as the half-cat, half-human Natsuki and Batanen the werewolf, law-breakers better watch out.

If you liked TMM for the cute catgirl aspect, you'll probably like Hyper Police, too.. But that's the only the thing they have in common.
AyameNatsuki

Both anime have bright and friendly cat girls. Natsuki from Hyper Police is a bounty hunter trying to make the world a better place by example and catching the bad guys, and the girls in Tokyo Mew Mew make the world a better place by fighting a source of evil. Although they are aimed at different age groups, both are a great watch.

Kamichama Karin

Both series are about magical people with powers trying to protect something while struggling with love. If you liked one of them, then you'd definately love the other!

beeble

Kamaichama Karin main character is about Karin who is a "mini" goddess with the big poofy dress, spunk, attitude and all her little girl characteristics. Tokyo Mew Mew has a similar plot and main character named Ichigo who had the abilty to grow ears and a tail "more catlike" she also has a poofy dress, an attitude and all that jazz. I recommend these becuase they both have a magical feature to them and romance and they both go out to save the world. :P

Pretear

Alt titles: Shin Shirayukihime Densetsu Pretear

both are about groups of people fighting "bad" forces. even if the "bad" forces may not be completely "bad". tokyo mew mew is about a group of grils fighting and involves a little (or a lot depending on how you look at it) of romance, as does pretear. even though pretear is about a group of (optional: hot) guys and tokyo mew mew is cute girls.
