Poor, poor [profile] calixais watching  Pretear.  And freaking out on the "preting."  Particularly with the kids.  I was so busy warning her about Revolutionary Girl Utena that I completely forgot about Pretear.  If you aren't familiar with Pretear, here's a paragraph from one of  [personal profile] dangermousie's entries on it that explains things well:

The concept has been designed by pervs. Or people on crack. Or pervs on crack. The good kind. Freud could spend happy months analyzing the set-up. Leafe Knights protect “leafe” (aka life force of all beings). Now there is Princess of Disaster who is trying to destroy all leafe and end the world. Leafe Knights (“leafe” makes them sound like pretentious California yuppies) are strong but they can’t win without a girl knight, a Chosen One (down, Buffy!) This teenage girl (whose title is Pretear) fights the bad eco monsters by ‘preting’ with her Leafe Knights (all male, ranging from grown-up hotties to children and one borderline toddler). What is ‘preting?’ Well, here is where the fun is. To fight, Pretear and a Knight become one. Yes. Indeed. And in a Karmic way, this happened right after I told Husband, this is the one anime I could see showing kids. No, it turns out, it was't. Oh boy, how it wasn't. 

Yes, to transform into her Magical Girl persona, the Magical Girl has metaphorical sex with every male in the show but her father.  And while transformed, the male has been absorbed into her.

For laughs, I went poking around The Pit.  I will not traumatize you.  I will, however, inform you that I discovered a Mary Sue named Sakura Petala.

And that's all you need to know.
