>>286415862Thank you
>>286415844She got herself a whole bowl of ice cream. I'm glad to see her branching out into other formats. The catsicle was cool too. I'd like to see a root beer float, maybe some Dippin Dots.

>>286415844Do you think threads die as soon as the IMAGE limit is reached? Is that why you always spam?

>>286416015
>>286416056>Do you think threads die as soon as the IMAGE limit is reached?When the image limit is reached after bump limit, it's reasonable to wait.It's not reasonable to wait when we have 300 posts and it would take hours for the thread to die.

For those who missed it: Nijee's disguise was different in the preview than it was in the final episode.

>>286416169They made it creepier than the preview.This ep had some neat horror undertones, even if not too heavy.

Now left behind, Anna opens up to Jett-senpai about why she hadn't given the Pre-Kit to Mikuru.

Who voiced glasses and the other students that showed up?
>>286416238There was some Doki episode where we had completely different animation from preview to the actual episode. I think it was even the Rikka-Ira episode.
You can't just shoot him!
>>286416254The Ahoge is actually an alien claw and their third arm.It's proof that Anna is Mikuru's descendant.

>>286416258>Murayama IsaoHe's just going to write the whole season, isn't he?>AD: Ueno KenThat's nice.
>>286416266It makes you wonder how these things happen. Do they attach the previews weeks in advance and then just forget to update them with the updated visuals? Do they see the preview air, realize "oh no", then change the animation in the week leading up to the new episode? Do they animate/draw something, change it, and then are like "well we wasted money on this, might as well put it in the preview to make it look like we updated it"? I can see all three being possibilities at any given moment. Fascinating stuff.

>>286416327stop doing drugs
>>286416303Well this one is a two-parter.Maybe he's getting the first "break" after ep6.
>>286416354>stop acting like a normal human being with thoughts and curiositiesNo.
>>286416238I found one when I was watching Hugtto
>>286416327For this episode the character is a bit hard to see so I can see why they changed the preview. In the episode it's fine since you already know the character and the scene even looks cool, but as a preview it fails.
>>286416266Didn't Doki change Makoto's eggs or was that an edit?
>>286416411Nice.
>>286416258>Mikuru runs out to retrieve the Makoto JewelsI wonder if this episode will be the one to reveal that they can't transform without each other. It was mentioned in an interview but they didn't try it in the show at this point.
>>286416254Mikuru's tiny ahoge flopping around helplessly while Anna's massive one takes her from behind...
>>286416428Why seeing the character would be important? They aren't going to sell merch of her.
>>286416428>they changed the previewI've seen previews use shaded characters before. I have also seen other anime deliberately alter something in the next episode in the previous to make it look less suspicious. Some people in this thread kept saying it was Luluka from the start. Only very close to the episode's airing were people like, you know what would be funny? What if it was Nijee cross-dressing again? haha that could never happen...
>>286416342Thanks.Could the student council president be Eclair after all?
>>286416437They did, they changed it from white to transparent. These minor touchups are not rare I believe. I remember the other Doki one because the scene had a different angle and everything.
>>286416492Not one single person predicted it was Nijee before the episode aired.
>>286416470So that you can make sense of it, if you see a frame with barely anything distinguishable you're gonna get confused.>>286416492>Some people in this thread kept saying it was Luluka from the startThose were retarded posters, luluka is already herself.

>>286416521>>286410510>>286412201>>286414041>>286415270A lot of people predicted it.
What about the preview nana ayyy?
>>286416327The easiest answer is that some previews are made before the episode goes through some minor corrections, which is not weird for anime
Do you have more screenshots of Her?
>>286416641it's just a side character you obsessive freak
I think there was another one but I found this one in the archive. Left didn't happen in the episode at all.
>>286416641
>>286416602Has anyone here actually had a melonpan? Is it good?
hell, very recently we had the nana ayy lmao face in the previewsdunno why you guys are acting like this is so rare
>>286416703Its ok. It would never be my first choice. It is just fruit flavored sugar bread. If you have an Asian grocery you can find some
>>286416703I like it
Preview
Actual episodeHS had a lot of these. You could tell the staff was strained while making HS because there were multiple instances of animation notes that made it to airing.

>>286417176This scene was very sad and we're only on episode 5
>>286417176Anna, don't look.......!
>>286416571I remember one time the preview had Hime crying but her tears were like green boogers, and then in the episode they were normal clear color. and of course the green booger shot was right when they were saying "we'll charge everyone's happiness to the max"

So is tanpuri a goated season?

>>286418334I don't know what that means.
>tags: NTR episode
>>286416012FIVE FREAKING SCOOPS!WHAT THE FUCK?
Consider this:The spammer kept doing his usual routine of littering the threads with artbooks while the weekly episode was airing.If he truly cared about Precure he'd at least pause it to watch the episode. But no, he kept going because going over the image limit was obviously more important to him than actually watching the episode.And then he creates a thread after pushing both threads over the image limit. For what, you may ask? To discuss about the episode he himself didn't care about, and he himself ruined for everyone watching with his spamming.So why does he care now if people use "his thread"?
>>286418483>Anna brings umbrella to school for Mikuru's sake>even excited to share the new toy with her so they match>she sees Mikuru hang out with other girls being touchy feely>One of the girls offers to walk home with her, implying that they will share the same umbrella>Anna's overdramatic reactionI expect something like this from early Meroron, Rikka, or maybe Yukari during a bad day, not Anna of all people. I figured her mommy issues were bad but not that bad.https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/286393892/#q286396513My Meroron post was way too accurate, what the hell?
>>286418581Stop saying stupid shit.She's sad that she can't do any of that herself since she's practically all alone in the past.

>mom/daughter NTRThe doujins can't come soon enough...
>mom/daughter shitpost againNo wonder threads are so dead
>>286421537We are in mourning because Pochitan fucking died
>>286421462That question makes no sense. Swallows, much like any other living beings, are individuals whose capabilities vary a lot even amongst the same species. Furthermore, even these individuals move at different speeds depending on circumstances and their personal moods. And that does not even take into account the uncertainty of the frame of reference that the velocity is measured with regards to in the first place.Also, I just found out what the word "unladen means". I thought it just referred to some specific species of swallows or something.
>>286421552Don't make Kobayashi posts with Anna
>>286415844Why were people here freaking out about this girl last week?
>>286421578Sorry
>>286421601That was before people found out it's a freaky tranny
>>286420409I didn't mind the plot of them getting into a fight, I just don't like it when two characters are super close early into the story, so it didn't make sense to me that Anna would be jealous of the fact that Mikuru already has friends.The mysteries have required skips in logic for me for weeks now though (couldn't see the turtle as a flower, trusted that the stain was ketchup because that was what they said it was and paint smells very different). The older sister would have definitely been used to the time difference at that point so it didn't make sense that she would make a mistake like that.
>>286421616It's amazing to see the messages of a show for four year olds are apparently too complicated to current /pc/.
>>286421552>Also, I just found out what the word "unladen" means
>>286421620>>286420409You forget that it takes place in 1999, when people didn't have instant messaging services on hand at all times so the older sister couldn't contact Her.™ if she didn't have a cellphone (which she most likely didn't because it wasn't prevalent at that time)
Mikuru was too unlikeable this episodeAt least Anna's motivation(loneliness) mad sense somohow. But why the fuck mikuru got mad just because Anna didn't answered her phone once?Really shitty conflict, especially compared to maho snow land episode one
>>286415844Are we entering the Art Contest, /a/nons?Let's show those 5 year olds what a real crayon drawing looks like!https://www.asahi.co.jp/precure/star-detective/topics/260111.html>Mail a postcard with your drawing on the back to the following address:>〒160-0022>新宿一郵便局留 [〒553‐8503 ABCテレビ]>プリキュアにがお絵チャレンジ係>Postcard front: Enter the ~ below!

>>286421764I'm pretty sure they won't show art from a 40 year old guy from the other side of the world.Kinda defeats the point of the contest.
>>286421669>a cellphone (which she most likely didn't because it wasn't prevalent at that time)So far there's been quite a few characters with cellphones. Pretty sure more of those have been used than landlines so far. The classmate Anna speaks to mentions cellphones getting confiscated like it was normal, and she also said she got an e-mail/message from Keiko last night.I don't think they're really leaning into the lack of technology well.
>>286421776Does this look like the drawings of a toddler to you? The Japanese ojisans are pretending to be children to get their art on TV, why aren't you?
>>286421228Me
>>286421791>Does this look like the drawings of a toddler to you?Yes. Some kids start taking it seriously early.
>>286416169Kinda worrying that we're just on episode 5 and they're already finishing up episodes less than 7 days before they air.Shouldn't they have at least 10 episodes finished before the season starts so they have a buffer, and only enter crunch time at the end of the year?
>>286416428see >>286416209
>>286421920Idol failure reduced franchise budget as a whole
>>286421920>>286421940It's so depressing to see how fucking stupid you people are.
>>286421920You're a fucking retard
>>2864169811. Detective2. Popular3. SmartShe's not girl-failure like some people wanted her to be. Being able to tell the time in London like that means she has a lot of trivia readily accessible in her working memory, as expected of someone who admires Sherlock Holmes.
>>286417176Which one of them do you think is Anna's dad? I wonder if we'll get to see them as hags in 2027.
>>286421974Moron
>>286421974It's her
>>286421966You say that as if it doesn't just make the whole Kobayashi thing even funnier
>>286421966I'm so glad everyone loves Kobayashi in-universe too
>>286421920Sad but true the often precure has crunch time before an episode airs for an entire year
>>286421228Do you think Nijii has sex while disguised?Would he insult you for falling for his gay sex?>>286421734It's not about picking up the phone, it's about taking on cases without consulting each other. Mikuru does not want to let her clients down so it's very important to not make promises you can't keep.But they'll come out even stronger at the other end of this, since they both basically did the same mistake. They'll set up routines for this (and maybe Anna will start school so that they can be together constantly).
>>286422014Thanks for spoonfeeding me the answers, even though I feel kind of stupid now.The solution: Anna got her hair color from her.Also, just to make future discussion more convenient, their names are:- Red Yayoi: Rie- Anna's dad: Miyu- Student council prez: Rei
>>286422055>it's about taking on cases without consulting each otherMaybe you should watch episode, Mikuru was angry at Anna long before they run into each other
>>286416342Should note that Kindaichi = Kinda(one), and Rei means zero.
>>286422184Mikuru just got called to the school board director's office for a case. It's a big deal. Taking on this case probably felt like the most important thing in the world to Mikuru, so she cannot emotionally deal with the fact that the world doesn't play along.It's natural to get upset. Deep down, Mikuru knows that it's not Anna's fault and they'll talk it out, but right here, she is perturbed and not in the right state of mind to hear that Anna also has taken on a case on her own.The conflict has a really beautiful symmetry to it. Anna also wanted to call Mikuru when she accepted her case, but didn't for whatever reason. I dunno if it's jealous exactly, but the episode did a wonderful job of conveying that it was a strong emotion.SD is just fantastic so far.
Wow, I didn't expect Anna to actually change her body into a JK, I thought it was just the uniform. But she grew up and everything.
>>286422406Bet her mother used that skill a lot for the cosplay sex with men
>>286421220>>286422406HagGODs won
>>286422373SD's building up to a lot of plot points which is why some of the more impatient viewers are dissatisfied at the moment (Pochitan storing stuff inside herself, two parter episode, more London foreshadowing, student council, etc).It's going slow but if they nail the execution with all of these Chekov's guns this is going to be a modern classic easily
>they're literal witches>Lala's ship and AI plus Cosmo's transformation powers later on>now the magic disguise/transformation plus all the Gadget-like trinketsMurayama really likes giving the Precure a lot of extra perks and trinkets and powers.
>>286422432>nail the execution with all of these Chekov's guns You're going spend several months seething when the cool ideas in your head don't happen
>>286422432It'd be dope if they went to London for the movie. Haven't they been to Paris twice?I was hoping Idol Precure would do a world tour, but I'll happily take the detectives going to London instead.
>>286422432>but if they nail the execution>maho and st writer
the shading this episode was really good
>>286422509It was great, the whole episode had a sinister tone. The villain meeting was especially great.
>>286421552>And that does not even take into account the uncertainty of the frame of reference that the velocity is measured with regards to in the first place.Anon, you just outed yourself as a pseudointellectual RETARD.Now that you've learned what "unladen" means, you should also google what "airspeed" means.
>>286421856>11 years oldI wonder if she gets made fun of in school for still not growing past precure
>>286422590It's okay for 11 years old, and by the time 14-15 they learn just not to talk about cartoons in school
>>286422555I like how involved the villains are, especially Usonoir. And the pacing of having the Cures suffer defeat this early to set the stage for their actual finishers. Really cool.
>>286422572Ok fine, I'm a tryhard retard, happy?
>>286421962>>286421965Wow, it is a shock to be called that.I thought of myself as having above-average knowledge about the behind-the-scenes production of anime.But then again I'm mostly knowledgeable about 1-2 cour productions, maybe 4-cour ones work differently.Please, enlighten me, tell me where I am wrong!
>>286415844Who was the retard that said she was going to be Luluka?
>>286422680>Please, enlighten me, tell me where I am wrong!Cringe reddit tier sarcasm. Fuck off already, you’re shitting up the thread.

>it was Nijee after allI can't believe they baited us with the preview. It's a two-parter too, so they will keep stalling Luluka for a while. My bet is she will appear at cour's finale (roughly ep12-13).
>>286422811The teacher (?) is Eclair, Seitokaichou is her fairy
>>286422916>hag cureI wish.I wonder if Pochitan also will want to attend school in human form when she grows up?

>>286423142They're not similar at all, what do you mean?
Is it just me, or are the uniforms this season uniquely good? Even the JK uniform Anna wore for just one episode is like really cute.
>>286423178Sora too felt lonely and pathetic when Mashiro went to school, and look how it turned out!Anyway, you should worry about spammer shitting thread instead
>>286423170It's a screencap of a zoomoid retard from twitter, his thought pattern is probably along the lines of "why don't they just use whatsapp or discord lmao"
>>286423178Sora had a melty over Mashiro going to school.

>>286423119>crakkker en twitterWhy do you people share this garbage? Please stay in your containment app.
>>286423170People don't use clocks in England
>>286423119Ok fine, I'll bite. The reason why Anna never took time zones into account here is that she had no reason to assume that the phantom thieves were involved due to Pochitan not sensing any makoto jewels until now, so she would do the proper thing you do in this scenario and take the word of the client seriously. If you wanna add some extra justification, you can also say that she wasn't thinking straight since she was still reeling from the revelation of Mikuru having friends that aren't her. Anyways, please stop posting Twitter screenshots.
>>286423222>>286423199It's not really a similar situation at all, Sora lost her mind over the idea of Mashiro going to school in the first place while Anna started getting jealous after seeing her mom getting it on with other girls.
>>286423232>>286423264You realize it's not 2022 or before anymore, right? Nobody calls it that anymore.

>>286422886Arcana Shadow should first appear in April when her toy releases. Since evil cures getting a toy is something new, we didn't know how it would be handled but it seems like she follows the same rules as the usual when it comes to debut. The preview was kinda a false alarm.
>>286423331I'm so glad we're getting another meganee in Pretty Cure. It has been too long!

>>286423393Amane was already a big enough dork without the glasses.
>>286421141I thought she could be Shushutan but eye color doesn't match. Jett has the same eye color in both forms so it would be weird being different here.
She craves ice cream.
Couldnt they just share them and deescalate the situation? Between this and Minori shooting Kururun, I'm seeing why people dislike her. It's entirely possible that the Tropical Rouges are not the good guys.
>>286421346Pochitan is a monster.
>>286423452She knows the timezone in London, France,
>>286421462I am too lazy to look up which subs version this comes from. And before you ask: I know exactly what this is referencing (abbreviated as "MP"), but I just want to know if the anime actually did make this reference or these are jokesubs in order to gatekeep people.
The """mystery""" asideAt least that kinda deletes Pochitan is evil theories, but also>disguised Anna sneaking around, appearing as a shadow>same ep has her carefully avoid to say anything about being jealous of Mikuru >even gives the umbrella she took for her to another person and acts like it's nothingHoly implying.>>286423526Well ok not entirely. But at least Pochitan is really on the Cure side. Birbs were great indeed.
>>286423278>her momoh so you just shitposting
>>286422373>Anna also wanted to call Mikuru when she accepted her case, but didn't for whatever reason. I dunno if it's jealous exactly, but the episode did a wonderful job of conveying that it was a strong emotion.She thought that hanging out with her friends might be more important to her than solving a case, and didn't want to bother her while she was having fun.Just one of those silly misunderstandings, it's good to get them sorted out at the start while they still don't know each other that well.
>>286422702It's not sarcasm, I'm legitimately asking to fill in the gaps in my understanding.Why are you being so mean?
>>286423613Anna says she "never lies" but if we go by the assumption that she's from the bad future where Phantom won and lies are reality then maybe the concept of lies is wholly different for Anna in the first place?

>>286423596>I know exactly what this is referencingit isn't referencing anything you idiot
>>286423670Good Kobayashi'ing actually.Anna genuinely believes her world wasn't filled with lies, perhaps she isn't even consciously aware her behavior, objectively, is one of a girl who is just playing innocent while employing sneaky ways and concealing her actual feelings.
>>286423696What do you think the ニ in his name comes from?
>>286423710you're either lying or this is one of those things you have to be an old man to understand isn't it

>>286421601Because the preview was framed as if the girl was Luluka in disguise, stepping up to fight the precures. It was a bait & switch for those who are not in the know about toy release schedule.

>>286423924You're beginning to notice...
Plot twist: Usonoir is related to C. Auguste Dupin since the "C" stands for "Chevalier" which is French for "knight" and Usonoir has a knight motif.
>>286424025
>>286424084Someone post it
>>286424159it
>>286423670Bullshit. Usonoir is George Washington, the sole survivor of the unable to lie timeline before Phantom Thieves (the British) stole the declaration of independence.
>>286424025Her surname is also a reference to a fictional detectiveBut that only brings her to the same amount of evidence as Howa Kurea, not any more.
>>286424198Makes you wonder how Jett-senpai's birth affected the American revolution.
>>286420409I straight ignored the mystery due to how dumb it was, but the episode is pretty cool in terms of giving Anna some characterization.Keep this characterization up for a while, have Mikuru eventually confront her on the fact she is kinda... dishonest in her ways but her heart is in the right place at least, and you have some good stuff here.

>>286424084>>286424644What's funny about this is Usonoir notices his Generals when they're in a spotlight, and Minori is in a spotlight when saying that message.
Kobayashi appears to me as a much more typical "liar" than Anna, but I guess we still don't know much about her so yeah.>introduced as a detective larper>the whole "pen name" debacle>a popular girl in school, you know what that means right, you don't get popular by telling the truth to everyoneI wasn't fooled by Anna, but I'm not fooled by this one either.

>>286424820More X trash
>>286422572>you should also google what "airspeed" means
>>286424057I have a possible plot twist: Usonoir is corrupted version of Cure Eclair. Before the story started, she discovered Tome of Mirage, try to learn from but get corrupted instead. The exact same plot as Dokurokushi from Mahoutsukai.Shushutan is the purified version Tome of Mirage. In Japanese, Mirage is spelled "Miraju". The "Ju" (ジュ) is spelled with the same katakana as the "Shu" (シュ) in Shushutan. Japanese has its own katakana for "Su" (ス), so it is very suspicious for Shushutan to be spelled with "Shu", especially for a kid show.Cure Arcana is inflitrating the Phantom Thief because she realized Usonoir is Cure Eclaire (her partner) and trying to save her. We now know Jett-senpai has tools that can change the girls' appearances, so it is possible for her current look to be a disguise in order to fool Usonoir and the fairies. She is probably actually someone in her 15-17 (High School) or even early 20s, like Cure Eclair, and looks significantly older. A reverse of Koucho-sensei from Mahoutsukai (who looks young, but actually ancient).Basically Cure Eclair and Cure Arcana are flipped version of Koucho-sensei and Dokurokushi, and instead of trying to destroy the corrupted partner like Koucho-sensei, Luluka is trying to save her partner.

>>286425528Kobayashi tries hard but Anna is a natural top
>>286425528Good point, Anna doesn't seem like an Erika-tier autist so she must have had friends of her own in her own timeline, I wonder if they'll bring them up at all
Maybe I'm just a dumb ESL but this line feels weird. I think it would be fine if there were other metaphors beforehand but that line came out of nowhere.
>>286425594Anna definitely had people who considered her a friend, but did Anna feel the same?
Loved this one though. I was waiting for something like this to show up.
>>286425028>>and you lie as your breathe, always saying what people want to hear, not what you think, and I don't even know your true name "Kobayashi" Mikuru. Do you even know yourself who is your true (You)?If Precure leaned more often in actually good writing, they would do this to Uta rather quickly. e.g.>what are you even beyond the perfect little idol of everyone's wildest dreams?

>>286425594I dunno, this episode made it look like she at least didn't have a group of friends before. She could have some big "one" friend that hasn't been mentioned, but you'd think this would have been the point to mention she's missing a friend from the future.
>>286425930She is "detective" scared of ghosts and some anons would like us to believe this is the smartest girl in the room.Not Anna, who is an intuitive genius and a confirmed... bit of a sly person?

>>286426142Meitantei V3
>>286422373Well put for Mikuru. Of course she isn't blaming Anna as much as the timing itself, though as you said it might be possible she herself has not realized what exactly she is upset at.As for Anna, should be obvious enough that is jealous of her friend. With her overwhelming INTUITION she has quickly realized what are the implications of her being a popular girl in school, she might think of Anna as only one of the many, she might not find much time for her, their feelings might not align at all, you get the point. That scene for her is unsettling because her intuitive grasp of Mikuru which barely had any context was challenged.
>>286425972I miss the detective outfits.
>>286425907>this is an elite detective girl
>>286426081Fuck off, rorafag
>>286426312My wife and her mom...
>>286426081It's an obvious cultural difference between 1999 and 2026(7).
>>286426142Actually more accurate potrayal as far the actual character goes compared to what she might feel like(the silly AA memes where they compare her to Phoenix, she isn't actually like him at all but she sure would say otherwise).
>>286423278Yeah, the situation is somewhat more akin to Rikka getting jealous of MakoPi having a sleepover with Mana in that one episode or Meroron getting jealous of Uta living with Purirun. Maybe there's somewhat of a different underlying emotion involved like Anna not wanting to butt into Mikuru's normal life or Anna missing her old friends, but that doesn't quite seem to be the case. Anna says she didn't want to bother Mikuru, but she was acting unusually emotional enough that her statement seems like a straight up lie or at least a deflection from the primary reason for Anna acting the way she is.
>>286426396Anna's lonely. That's all there is to it.
>>286426396Anna is obviously lying there. She is jealous of her friend and is trying to make it sound nicer. Anna's whole point here is that she isn't so honest about her feelings
>>286426460I can help her...
>>286426183One fun thing they could do is relate the current situation with Anna's issues with her mom. Maybe Anna's mom is at work most of the time, and Anna has had a lot of times where she felt lonely but tried to suppress it. Mikuru hanging out with her other friends reminded Anna of that one time her mom she saw her mom having fun with her coworkers while she herself was feeling lonely.
>>286426530Yeah that makes perfect sense and follows well if the theory stands. Which probably does because it's been heavily hinted both by raw physical evidence and the "pen name" hint.>>286426396But Anna won't turn anything like Meroron. Jealous, yes, but selfish and cunty about it? She won't, worst case scenario she will be the one taking everything in while making sure to not bother Mikuru and to not be an emotional burden.

>>286426999That she is.They better not fuck it up, for now I don't like her just for being cute but because her character sounds much more interesting than average pinks.
>>286426530Let's not make stuff up just cause. The fear of having a lopsided friendship is already a good and relatable story. What has been shown is Anna getting frustrated at seeing her friend having a life without her and being fine. It happened with Liko in Maho too. At most, it has the implication of Mikuru resuming her everyday life without a care in the world after Anna returns to her own time, but I doubt that would be addressed directly
