The official website of the new anime adaptation of Reiko Yoshida and Miya Ikumi’s Tokyo Mew Mew manga announced the second season on Wednesday, revealing an announcement video. The anime is scheduled to air in April 2023 on TV Tokyo, BS TV Tokyo and AT-X.
The Magical Girl manga was published in Nakayoshi from August 2000 to December 2002. Yoshida and Ikumi serialized a two-volume sequel titled Tokyo Mew Mew a la Mode in the same magazine between March and December 2003.
Studio Pierrot adapted the manga into a 52-episode television anime that aired from Spring 2002 to Winter 2003. 4Kids Entertainment licensed and dubbed the first 26 episodes. The new 12-episode anime adaptation produced by Yumeta Company and Graphinica aired in the summer of 2022.

essence
Thirteen-year-old Ichigo Momomiya is at an endangered animal exhibit with his crush Masaya Aoyama when she is hit by a beam of light and sees a cat enter her body. She starts showing cat-like behavior the next day. A giant monster attacks Masaya and forces Ichigo to transform into a pink magic girl with cat ears and a tail.
A boy named Ryu Shirogane reveals that the monster he fought was a chimera anima-alien parasite that infects animals and turns them into giant monsters. Ryu and Keichiro Akasaka, owners of a pink cafe called Cafe Meow Meow, plan to take the DNA of five Red Data animals and use them as biological weapons by injecting them into chimera enemas—an experiment they called the Meow Project. But the day before because of an earthquake, DNA was accidentally shot at Ichigo and the four other girls that she found outside the museum!
Now a “biological weapon,” Ichigo must fight against aliens and find his potential mates – all while keeping his cat’s identity a secret from Masaya. [Written by MAL Rewrite]
