This tape marks a definate turn in the series... All those of you who thought Magical Project S had no depth, and was perpetually happy, should watch this. The tape starts with an episode to wrap up a cliffhanger, and ends with one of the more touching scenes in US-released Magical Girl anime. Anyone who's picked up and peeked at the back summary of the tape knows that this is when Sasami (and Misao) find out that Misa is just Misao's alter ego. What most people probably don't realize, is just how much this realization will affect and strain the two girls relationship. Honestly, episode 19 of Magical Project S (available on this tape), is probably one of my all-time favorite episodes. But maybe I'm just a sucker for a good plot twist.

This volume (6 of 8) ends with a touching story about Misao. Can their friendship survive once Sasami figures out what is going on? See how the perfect kids resolves this crisis.

Pretty Sammy fanatics know that 4 different instances of this series exist. Pretty Sammy originated in a follow-up to the Tenchi Muyo OVA called the "Mihoshi Special" and later re appeared in one of the fantasy within a fantasy episodes of the Tenchi Universe Series. Next came the OVA, and finally this Magical Project S TV series.

Pretty Sammy is so cute, you might just eventually want to see all of these. ^_^

It has a good story and also funny at the last episode I never seen that twist coming.
