4Kids doesn't own the second half of the series (by the way, I posted a topic about this earlier and it disappeared, anyone care to give an explanation?). From a 4Kids.tv admin:

Quote:
Sorry everyone - I've seen the 4Kids TV schedule - from now thru April and there is no Mew Mew Power on.

I've checked with the television scheduler and 4Kids does not HAVE any more Mew Mew Power episodes - they're working on trying to get more, but can't say when or IF this will happen.

I'll let know the second I hear anything!

I'm glad. Perhaps this is being done intentionally by the Japanese producers? This has happened before, but it was never severe enough to disrupt the television airings of the show.

Wow I am so glad, from what I saw on 4kids, Mew Mew Power looked like such a Salor Moon rip off.

..because Usagi turns into a catgirl?
I think you're confusing 'ripoffs' with genres (in this case Mahou Shoujo, probably a bit of Sentai too)

The show sucked, even if it was aimed at little girls. It will not be missed.

I'll miss the intro, it was addictive as crack with its poorly-thought up rhymes.

4Kids Entertainment is quickly becoming the equivalent to Uwe Boll when it comes to anime.

Eventually, the Japanese will wise up and stop selling the rights to there franchises to them.

You say that as if the series was something wonderful to start with. It really wasn't. It was just a derivative of every other magical girl show with a nicer-looking paint job.

Let us just pray they NEVER get their filthy hands on Nanoha.

There are some series that I'd like to see 4Kids get. Like Elfen Lied, Hellsing, and Berserk. That'd be fun.

We would probably have a Mulian invasion a la Knights of the Zodiac Surprised

That was seriously the most retarded form of censoring ever.

Nanoha is not no way a 4kids title, seeing as how it is not.. for kids (was aired late at night in Japan).

It's be hard to 4kids to get Hellsing or Elfen Lied seeing as how they've already been released by other companies.

I know that. It was a joke. Don't take it so seriously.

I liked Mew Mew Power. It was candy colored and a pleasant distraction. Sorry to see it go.
