Glitter Force (Smile PreCure!) Netflix Exclusive - TV Show Review



Hello my fellow Bats,
Today I will be reviewing an Anime TV Show which is exclusively available on Netflix. It is called Glitter Force.

Glitter Force, originally called Smile Pretty Cure!, is an Anime Styled TV Show which has been created by Izumi Todo & Shoji Yonemura. We accompany a tiny pixie on her mission to recruit 5 pre-teenagers to defend their Home Planet from Fairy Tale Villans. The Tv Show originally aired on the 5th of February 2012 and ended on the 27th of January 2013. The Netflix Version Aired on the 18th of December 2015 and ended on the 26th of August 2016. The TV Show comes with 2 Seasons and each Season includes 20 Episodes which are each around 20 Minutes long.

Generally I am not a massive Anime Fan, however I am a fan of children TV Shows inform of Cartoons or 3D Animations. Although when I was younger I used to watch TV Shows such as Sailor Moon, Ojamajo Doremi and Heidi, Girl of the Alps. So the Style itself is not unfamiliar.

Due to the fact that I generally do not watch Anime TV Shows this one was bound to blew me away. We are met with a similar style to Ojamajo Doremi and Sailor Moon only more colourful and vibrant. The Colours are absolutely beautiful, the voice acting was very well made and the story was amazingly told.

I believe this TV-Show was mainly aimed at a younger audience due to its simple plot and rather simple scheme. Bad Guys are coming lets fight them and save the world. I personally am not bothered by this and enjoyed it a-lot more then I would like to admit.

Similar to My Little Pony these 5 Girls learn in each and every episode something new about Friendship and themselves, which is not only super cute but also something I would let my child watch, if I had one.

As for the Characters, they rather different from each other. There is one super Happy one, that likes to read fairy tales and dream, one that likes to study and be good in many things, one sporty one that likes to cook and another sporty one that loves to look after her family and is team player and lastly a shy creative one. So no matter who is watching there will always be one character you will be able to relate to.

At the end of each episode there is a pretty animation of the 5 Girls dancing to Pop Music which is really pretty to watch, the animation is not very amazing but also not bad. I personally did enjoy it a-lot and am still listening to some of the Music as it is really good.

I have seen alot of negative stuff about the Glitter Force, especially after it has been aired on Netflix and please let me tell you that not everybody likes to watch Animes in Japanese with English Subtitle, this would be especially a pain for children that cannot read properly yet.

Personally I loved Glitter Force and am sad that it is over as it brought so many memories back on Anime Styled TV-Shows I watched when I was younger. I also wouldn't off liked to watch it in Japanese with Subtitles, as I would like to watch what is going on and not read it.

I can recommend this TV Show to any Child or Adult which is still a Child at heart, the animation is well made, the characters are lovely and the story is greatly told.

This Anime is Vampire Approved due to its Positivity, vibrant Colours and lovely Story.
