When Pinky Mimi Delalune is posing before her "logo" (with her name in it) comes up, the background is very similar to the ending background of The Powerpuff Girls episodes.There are images of Sailor Moon cosplayers as well. During Pinky Mimi Delalune's transformation scene, there is a montage of images featuring Sailor Moon, and in one picture, her civilian identity Usagi Tsukino.Jean-Francois Moppemond seems to play a game of Dance Dance Revolution.Pinky Mimi Delalune seems to be a parody of Sailor Moon.
The combat suits of Seigi Sentai Pin-Pin seem to based off of the Sentai Rangers' suits. Unlike the other members of Seigi Sentai Pin-Pin, Jean-Francois is the only one to speak his own name, similar to the titular creatures of the Pokémon franchise.
An easter egg in the intro features a sentence that reads "I Love Gainax". The Studio Tanuki image in the intro is a parody of a Studio Ghibli logo image with Totoro (from My Neighbor Totoro). The pilot in general was likely intended to be a risque anime and manga parody.
When Rabby transforms into Pinky Mimi Delalune, the "P" on her combat suit is layered over her gloves. In the shots with Pinpin, Rabby and Jean-Francois together while the Pinpinganger is almost destroyed (by Takotank), and Rabby flying up from the Pinpinganger to transform into Pinky Mimi Delalune, Rabby's scrunchie is colored white. There are images of suggestive-looking women in Monsieur Tan's room. They also lived in a building with many rooms inside (likely either a hotel or a different apartment). Their suits also were more simplified, and they had circle-shaped "gloves" (of the suit) on their "hands". Candy having the ability to transform into her "magical girl alter-ego" Pinky Mimi Delalune, using a wand with a red heart at the end. Jean-Francois having his fur being more bluish and lighter (followed by some shots giving him two highlights in his eyes). When they open their eyes, it reveals that they instead have white sclerae with black pupils, instead of their beady eyes containing two highlights. Bunny and Candy's fur were consistently having their luminosity reversed (albeit with Bunny's fur being in a lighter tone of pink), and mostly having their eyes closed in a happy expression (though, Bunny's closed eyes look slightly slanted upwards). Besides Bunny being named as "Pinpin Lelapin", Candy being named as "Rabby Quawaillie", Stan Ookie named as "Monsieur Tan" and Jean-Francois having the surname "Moppemond":. Debilouman had a greener and lighter hair color, and also had beady eyes. In general, every character didn't have their personalities developed yet, with the minor exception of Bunny (who was shown to be more of a jerk than he was), followed by Jean-Francois (possibly being portrayed as the only innocent member of the Seigi Sentai). It uses both 2D and 3D animation styles. This is the only time Bunny takes off his shield when he's in his combat suit.

There is also the VHS and DVD version of it.Īn image of Pinpin and Rabby (with her scrunchie being on her right ear rather than her left ear, usually), likely being a promotional image during Bunny Maloney's development, are sometimes shown in the endings from some of Kabillion's English-dubbed episode uploads, a banner with the show's title as busts and in the "Halloween Exclusive" banner almost in the full view of their bodies, as seen in this gallery below: There were no fansubbed versions of it by people fluent in French, either. It can be found on its official website, but the site has now been taken down for unknown reasons, and viewing the foreign versions of it in the Wayback Machine refuse to load the movie, so at this point, the only language of it that is available online was the original French version.

Pinpin le Lapin: Attack of the Giant Red Octopus(in French as Pinpin le Lapin: L'attaque de poulpe rouge geant) or simply as Pinpin le Lapin (Japanese: パンパン ル・ラパン Panpan ru・Rapan) is a 2002 French animated TV pilot created by Studio Tanuki, Nicolaï "Méko" Chauvet, Utku Kaplan and Nicolas Flory, which was a sneak peek for a television series by MoonScoop and France 2 though, it was toned down and made somewhat family-friendly, as it still had some risque humor at times. The clean version of the pilot available. Pin-Pin SEIGI SENTAI - L'ATTAQUE DU POULPE ROUGE GÉANT - Version GotohWan One of the full footage videos of the pilot available. Pinpin le Lapin L'attaque du poulpe rouge geant This pilot is actually not safe for work, so it's the reason why its final product ( Bunny Maloney) has a lot of inappropriate jokes that’s not suitable for young audiences.
