Tokyo Mew Mew Ala mode Question

I know I've asked a lot of manga questions in the past, but I guess it's better to be safe than sorry. *lol* Anywho, I'm a huge fan of Tokyo Mew Mew, and was very happy we had a review for it here.

But what about Ala Mode? I know it's not some hentai thing as many use to think when the series was first starting, but I still wonder. Is there anything in it I should know about? I own some issues of Nakayoshi, but due to my limited knowledge of Japanese, I unfortunately can't figure everything out...not to mention it's better to have the whole story instead of parts. ^^;

So anything? Anymore "girl fangirls over girl" moments like Mint and Zakuro? Especially asking about this one since the yuri fans obviously twist things to how they want it, and not how things always are.

Thankies!

The first series was thought of as being hentai?! Not that I heard of... they were a couple small scenes that might be concidered as wrongish, but still never heard of that... I didn't find the Mint/Zakura thign that bad either with the whole, she just idolized her thing, although it's one of those things you can't help fans by doing...

Anyways! Getting down to a La Mode, lemme think objectional... a guy crossdressers as a disguise... innocent kisses... umm I'd think that the most objectional thing in there was that I thought when they called Berry's "parent" a dad was a typo^^ ...and then her mom came into the pic and he really did look like that @_@... Heh just foudn that sort of odd!

Ummm I'll also add that the short 2 volumes does have a bit of a dark twist with comments such as "drinking rabbit's blood" were made :/ But really not alot. "Cleaner" than the first series you can say, in comparison.

Its pretty clean, and what tenchi mentioned is the only things I can think of... I have the series both mew mew and la la mode... I love it ^^
(who said it was hentai?! I missed that one... lol, not even close to it...)

Ok guys, thanks for the head's up. ^^

As for the hentai thing? It was something I remember people briefly bringing up. Like people knew Tokyo Mew Mew was clean, but when Ala Mode came out, they thought it was some sick hentai version of the manga. x-x;

Uhm....

The most objectionable things I can remember are

- crossdressing
- a bra strap

That's it.

Never read Ala Mode, but I love Tokyo Mew Mew!!! I doubt it's hentai, seeing as Tokyopop rated it as Y 10+. Had it been hentai it would have been rated MA 18+

Not that I can really think of. I love Tokyo Mew Mew too... umm... no... not really... her dad loks a bit odd though... O_o...

Personaly, I didn't really like A la mode... its ending was so... ubrupt? I wonder if Mia Ikumi was desperate to end it or something...

Yeah the ending was a bit .... I think in her commentary that it hinted that she basically wanted to get it over with :/
