“PRETTY HEART POWER!!!!!”
Can you say... “Pretty lame rip-off!”
How about “Pretty pale imitation!”
No critique, people -- at least you’re trying to mimic anime!
Panda as a cub witnessed the magical art of “Anime”.
This feels more like a mere rip-off or parody of Anime -- may be something between Star vs. the Forces of Evil and Sailor Moon or something??? (Oh, so they can not reference copyrighted anime, but of course they can do a Japanese dub of Seinfield and Sony hasn’t a thing to say about it)
Oh, and another thing. Isn’t Anime supposed to be more detailed in design than animation? There’s a fair amount for animation (it’s all tight though) in this segment, but the model’s design lacks... detail.
Ironically, this stuff is animated in Korea at Saerom Animation, an Asian country as is Japan, from which “Anime” originated.

Of course you can find better (or actual) Anime on @toonami (only on [adult swim]) or Crunchyroll. Even Titmouse is better at doing anime than the various times that We Bare Bears parodies/references that style.
