Development: 2</B></div> <div> I've seen the first and last episodes and I don't see much difference.  Nobody seems to have developed at all.  Maybe seeing the second episode will make me think different.</div> <bR> <div> <B>Sexuality: 4</B></div> <div> Disturbingly, the opening sequence shows for a brief moment a naked Sasami during a transformation sequence, and later another one where there are bits of Sasami fanservice.  </div> <bR> <div> <B>Romance: 4</B></div> <div> The whole Ryoko and Ayeka problem that was present in past series is present here, but is thankfully phased out in Magical Project S.</div> <bR> <div> <B>Drama: 6</B></div> <div> It's late at night right now and I can't think of much to say about it right now.</div> <bR> <div> <B>Action: 4</B></div> <div> It's a Magical Girl-type, so...</div> <bR> <div> <B>Comedy: 5</B></div> <div> There is a basic amount of comedy that can create a short laugh, and a couple of scenes that are hilarious the first time around, but nothing that will leave a lasting impression to keep you laughing for the rest of the day.  ...   Maybe that's a good thing.</div> <bR> <div> Magical Girl Pretty Sammy was created after Pretty Sammy made her debut during the Mihoshi Special and Tenchi Universe.  It was about time she got her own show.  While this short 3-episode series was funny and entertaining with a decent amount of drama that is just a bit lower than Sailor Moon, it was still only 3 episodes and never got a real ending... unless there's more in the works.  The good side, however, is that the series is easy to collect as it's only 3 episodes.  The bad side is that you'll need tremendous luck finding this.  Unless you shop on the 'net.  Pioneer is being lazy or maybe they're having problems, as they haven't released a Pretty Sammy DVD and didn't work on a dub for Magical Project S.  If there's anything Cartoon Network needs for children viewers of Toonami, it's just that.  Anyway, the short story is, this anime is perfect for those who can find it and not find Magical Project S... or if you already found and collected Magical Project S, then this is a good buy.  Ah, hell, it's good for anyone who watched and enjoyed at least one Tenchi series.  </div> <bR> <div> <I><B>That's My Story and I'm Sticking to it!</B></I></div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
