History Manga / TokyoMewMew

* TheBumblebee: Bu-ling and Ringo.

* [[GodcReatedCanonForeigner Akaii Ringo]]: Mew Ringo (apple), the [[spoiler:Mu Aqua-fueled]] Humboldt penguin. A healer and the second [[TheBumblebee Bumblebee]]. She appears only in the [=PS2=] game. And no, despite her resemblence, she is ''not'' related to Ichigo.

* DidNotDoTheResearch: In a late episode, a huge tree Chimera Anima is created and begins producing extreme levels of oxygen. The real problem is that humans do not have such severe reactions to a 100% oxygen environment. Yes, it is damaging, but not in that short amount of time.
** The thought experiment that the Saint Rose Crusaders cite and replicate in the second half of ''a la mode'' was actually a '''miserable failure''' in real life.

* SakuraGirl: Ichigo's mom.

* [[BornOfClay Akaii Ringo]]: Mew Ringo (apple), the [[spoiler:Mu Aqua-fueled]] Humboldt penguin. A healer and the second [[TheBumblebee Bumblebee]]. She appears only in the [=PS2=] game. And no, despite her resemblence, she is ''not'' related to Ichigo.

* ChinesePeople: Bu-ling and her younger siblings, as well as Long Yuebin from the anime.

* EigenPlot: The manga's Mew Aqua arc

* AlternativeForeignThemeSong: The 4Kids dub has a typical, girly pop song for its theme.

* LesYay: Minto and Zakuro, to the point where it probably goes beyond SubText.

* [[{{Bishonen}} Bishounen]]: ''Tons.''

* MrViceGuy: A lot: Ichigo is a [[BigEater glutton]] who accepts the call only when Shirogane offers her free samples of his cafe's sweets; Aoyama is such a {{Sloth}} that, unless Ichigo is involved, he never does what he wants because [[StepfordSmiler it's easier to just smile]]; Zakuro's full of {{Wrath}} and reacts with violence (physical and psychological) to any problem and her mere eyes are enough to scare the cafe's customers; Minto is a textbook example of {{Pride}}, treating everyone but Zakuro and Shirogane with disdain; Shirogane is so [[{{Greed}} greedy]] he asked for money to help Ichigo with her homework and never paid the ticket of the Tokyo Dome. If they were heroes, we'd even have {{Lust}} (Kisshu) and {{Envy}} (Pai)...

* MrViceGuy: A lot: Ichigo is a [[{{Gluttony}} glutton]] who accepts the call only when Shirogane offers her free samples of his cafe's sweets; Aoyama is such a {{Sloth}} that, unless Ichigo is involved, he never does what he wants because [[StepfordSmiler it's easier to just smile]]; Zakuro's full of {{Wrath}} and reacts with violence (physical and psychological) to any problem and her mere eyes are enough to scare the cafe's customers; Minto is a textbook example of {{Pride}}, treating everyone but Zakuro and Shirogane with disdain; Shirogane is so [[{{Greed}} greedy]] he asked for money to help Ichigo with her homework and never paid the ticket of the Tokyo Dome.

If they were heroes, we'd even have Lust (Quiche) and Envy (Pie)...
* MurderTheHypotenuse: Poor, ''poor'' Masaya. He gets this in-universe from [[StalkerWithACrush Quiche in his attempts to take Ichigo]], and IRL from hordes of crazy fangirls.

* NewEden: Mu Aqua is some powerful stuff.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Mew Pudding encases a Mu Aqua droplet in a Puringring Inferno, which accelerates its destabilization and makes it harder for the other Mew Mews to get it under control.

* NotSoHarmless: Quiche, Tart and Pie start out unleashing chimera anima on the heroes and running away when they fail, but their schemes become more effective over time and present a real threat to the lives of the Mew Mews and other civilians. They never completely succeed, but the heroes have to work harder to stop them each time.

* TakeThatKiss: Quiche's introduction is to jump from a roof and crash one of these to Ichigo.

* ThoseTwoGuys: Miwa and Moe

** TheLancer- Zakuro

* SpiritBomb: Reborn Strawberry Surprise.

There is also a manga-only sequel written by the head illustrator after the head writer left. ''Tokyo Mew Mew a la mode'' renders Ichigo utterly useless (no, really) so that a [[TheWesley shiny new character]] named Shirayuki Berii/Mew Berry (Tokyopop name: Berry) can take her place. Many fans [[FanonDiscontinuity like to pretend it doesn't exist]].

* {{Americanitis}} : ''Mew Mew Power''. Especially ridiculous as the 4Kids version was shown in multiple other countries, many very different from America.

* PinkBishoujoGhetto: Despite not being a {{bishoujo}} series.

* AnimeInLaws: Ichigo's father disapproves of Aoyama at first and challenges him to a kendo match. Ichigo intervenes, and convinces him to accept Aoyama.
** OverprotectiveDad: Shintarou
** LetHerGrowUpDear: Sakura

* BreeSharp: Sang the English dub opening theme song for "Tokyo Mew Mew" and most of the songs for "Mew Mew Power."
