I really wish PQ Angels had materialized to another magical girl anime. I think it would've been great to have after the 90s Sailor Moon phenomenon. Love their outfits, very Sailor Starlights-esque style.
Precure is nauseating and unfortunately to baby-ish for me to watch. Only 2 or 3 seasons erre decent for me to watch. The later seasons are just worse to me. Sailor Moon I feel appealed to a much broader audience even for anime target at young girls. I love magical girl anime but Precure is far from it for me to even enjoy. Very little creativity.
Naoko was forced to listen to Kodansha in the creation of SM, she thought that she can get away with the majority of things she wants with PQ Angels like what CLAMP did with Card Captor Sakura...but she was proven wrong...
^ Considering that Takeuchi has a total of five artbooks plus the Infinity one, she's quite prolific in the amount of her colored illustrations back then.
In regards to CLAMP and Naoko, CLAMP's original idea for CCS and TRC of Sakura fighting evil is not innovative compared to Naoko Takeuchi's idea of Sailor Moon of having a team of girls fighting a bad guy.
