Tokyo Mew Mew (東京ミュウミュウ, Tōkyō Myū Myū?), licensed as Mew Mew Power in North America, is a magical girl manga and anime series, created by illustrator Mia Ikumi and writer Reiko Yoshida.[1]

Originally published as a manga series, Tokyo Mew Mew was later adapted into a 52-episodes anime with the same title. The manga version also spawned several side stories, and a sequel titled Tokyo Mew Mew à la Mode. None of these spin-offs were given an anime counterpart.

Main article: Tokyo Mew Mew Spinoffs
Besides Tokyo Mew Mew à la Mode, there are short bonus stories that can be found in the manga volumes. This includes Petite Mew Mew series, and a bonus story titled Tokyo Negru Cat Girl, which preceded the main Tokyo Mew Mew story. There are also games, one for Playstation (released December 5, 2002) and one for Gameboy Advance (released July 11, 2002) ; both of them were released only in Japan.


[edit] Anime
For plot details, see List of Tokyo Mew Mew episodes 1-26 and List of Tokyo Mew Mew episodes 27-52.
The anime series was produced by Studio Pierrot with assistance from Ikumi and Yoshida and aired on TV Aichi in Japan. It consists of 52 episodes of approximately half hour each.[1] The anime’s general plot is basically the same as in the manga; however, certain events occurred differently in the two versions.[citation needed]

The animation/artwork underwent several changes around the later episodes of season 2 – mainly around episodes 40 to 52 – where the characters start to look more detailed and more bishojo/bishonen. For example, the style for Kish and Zakuro Fujiwara drastically changed in the later episodes. The animation style experienced other minor changes during the series, but this is the most noticeable.

[edit] Tokyo Mew Mew
Opening song

Ending song
Koi wa À la Mode[1] – "Love is in style" or "Love it with ice cream" – by Tokyo Mew Mew: Saki Nakajima (Ichigo), Yumi Kakazu (Mint), Kumi Sakuma (Lettuce), Hisayo Mochizuki (Pudding), and Junko Noda (Zakuro)
All of the background music was released in a two-part original soundtrack. Various other CD albums and singles contain the theme songs, the characters' image songs, transformation music, and two insert songs by Rika Komatsu[9] — Glider and My Days (Ano Hi wo Wasurenai). Glider is used as background music for one of Ichigo's attacks.[10]


[edit] Mew Mew Power
Opening song
Team Up! by Bree Sharp
4Kids' English adaptation replaced the original background music and songs with a completely new score — the original Japanese songs and transformation music were replaced by several new English songs.[11]


[edit] Adaptations
For details on English versions, see English adaptations of Tokyo Mew Mew. For other adaptations, see International adaptations of Tokyo Mew Mew.
Tokyo Mew Mew has been translated into English, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, and Korean.[1] Sometimes various alterations were made.


[edit] English anime adaptation: Mew Mew Power
See also: Editing of anime in American distribution
Mew Mew Power, 4Kids' English adaptation of the anime, features major alterations: The characters are renamed, episodes and clips are moved around, backgrounds are visibly altered, and scenes are cut — ranging from a few seconds to more than a minute each.[12][13]


[edit] English manga translation
The English version of the Tokyo Mew Mew manga was released in United States by Tokyopop. Unlike the anime adaptation, it keeps all of the characters' original names (There are different ways to romanize the characters' names: refer to the characters' articles for more information). There are mistranslations present (in the manga), [14][15] but it does not affect the plot of the story. The manga is published in its original right-to-left format.


[edit] Characters' names origin
The main characters in Tokyo Mew Mew are named after foods.[16][17]
With the exception of Berry Shirayuki, the Mew Mews are named after fruits – or other foods – that are similar to their signature colors: Ichigo's pink is similar to the red of a strawberry, Mint's blue is like that used on some mint-flavored candies, Lettuce's green is similar to some types of lettuce, Pudding's yellow is similar to the color of some types of flan or pudding, Zakuro's color is a red-violet similar to the red of a pomegranate, and Ringo's red is the same as a red apple's color.


[edit] References to foods in characters' names
Name Meaning Name Meaning
Ichigo Strawberry Kisshu Quiche
Minto Mint Pai Pie
Retasu Lettuce Taruto Tart
Purin[18] Pudding Gateau du Rowa "Gateau du Roi" ("King cake")
Zakuro Pomegranate
Ringo Apple
Berii Berry

All the main characters in Tokyo Mew Mew have the kanji for colors in their last names, with the exception of Ichigo and Zakuro.[19]
Ichigo's kanji (桃 momo) means peach and Zakuro's kanji (藤 fuji) means wisteria. In Japanese, "pink" is called "peach color". "Peach color", 桃色 momo-iro,[20] does not refer to the color of the peach fruit — a peach's color is written 肌色 hada iro[20] (literally translates to "skin color"). Although "Purple" has its own kanji (紫 murasaki),[20] "light purple" is written 藤色 fuji-iro (wisteria color). The kanji of the other characters' colors are also similar to traits of the characters, such as their signature color (for the Mew Mews), hair color or eye color.

Mint, Lettuce, Zakuro, Keiichiro, and Masaya also have the kanji of geographic features in their last names.
Masaya's, Keiichiro's, Ryou's, and Tasuku's last names are also the names of districts in Tokyo: Aoyama, Akasaka, Shirogane, and Meguro.[17]
