Hyper Doll - Mew & Mica The Easy Fighters description
It's difficult to tell if this super-heroine adventure is meant as spoof or a real story: the tone is silly and the fragmentary story line makes little sense. Although they appear to be ordinary (if curvaceous) high school students, Mew and Mica are really alien androids, assigned to protect Earth from the monsters summoned by the mysterious Dr. Zaiclit and his henchmen. In "Earth Is in a Bind," he sics a gigantic grasshopper and a jellyfish-octopus on Tokyo, a combination that can be defeated only by the Hyperdolls. In "Peace on Earth," a monster earthworm threatens the planet until Mew and Mica reduce it to so much live bait. The Hyperdolls aren't particularly endearing characters. The only person who knows their true identity is their classmate Akai, a computer nerd who attempts to keep them focused on their assignment. They respond by making his life miserable--until a hologram of their boss appears (atop a pizza in "Bind") and orders them back to work. The story starts and stops, with no real beginning, middle, or end, and will appeal only to uncritical anime fans: Hyperdolls makes Tenchi Muyo! sound like Kant's "The Critique of Pure Reason." Rated for ages 13 and up for nudity, violence, and occasional profanity. --Charles Solomon |

WARNING: You may laugh your head off...
|
| Mew & Mica are two super powered aliens sent to earth to defend it from ouside invaders, but end up fighting the mutated creations sent by Dr. Zaiclit. In their off time they pose as high school students, and the only one who knows their true identity is their male classmate, Akai. Then there is Akai's old female friend, Shoko, who dosen't know their secret but is beginning to suspect something is strange about the two. As for why she and everyone eles can't tell just by looking at them...well, I guess it's just like Superman and most super hero stories inspired by it, where you just have to suspend your disbelief and accept that everyone is fooled by the hero's rather transparent disquiese. Also, the dolls don't want anyone eles finding out about their identity, so they make the threat to Akai: "Don't tell anyone, or we'll twist your head off!" I know that probably makes them seem less than heroic, but maybe the author decided he wanted his heroines to have a dark edge to them. The animation is fair (I've seen much worse-it's better than Poke'mon, at least,) the music score is good, (in the dubbed version, the opening song is also sung in english,) and both the English and Japanese voice actors do a great job of potraying the characters. However, the story kind of drops you off in the middle, and about the only back story you see are some brief imigaes that flash by during the opening song, where we see the hyperdolls coming down to earth. Here is my advise: for anyone who watches this and wants a more complete version of the story, read the manga from Studio Ironcat. |
