Precure Live 2025 was enjoyable-puri.Too bad for the people who didn't watch it after the absolute shill episode last week.

>>283127620Are they... y'know?
>>283127620
Must be an Oricon article, or from AnimateTimes I bet.
Kaito blush>>283127491Jogi is definitely the more outgoing and charismatic of the two. You can see during their montage how Jogi really sparkles.I wonder if that's what made Darkiine recruit him and make him her right-hand man / favorite? She might like pretty boys, or just like seeing the most dazzling light being covered in jet-black dizzying darkness.Man, Darkiine x Jogi x Kaito might be really interesting. I just wish we knew more about Darkiine.
is cheap yaoibait really enough to make people like a character?this seems like a bad precedent if Kaito's just gonna disappear again until the finale and all the Jogi stuff will be put on hold until then
>>283127641...measuring?
Uta will cure Kaito's homosexuality!
That wasn't part of the latest LINE stamp release, I think.
>>283127662Nobody likes either of them, it's just shitposting.
>>283127555Kokoro unironically thinks that's normal fan behavior because she does the same with her Idol and Wink merch
>>283127677"Sword fighting"
>>283127555How come there's 0 fanart of Meroron with a Zukyoon daki
>>283127681Can she holy fuck?
Utabros, we won
>>283127677Each other's dicks with their hands
Kaito being the reason Uta gets a super form sets a bad precedent. Now we won't get the ex-generals giving Nana and Kokoro super forms.I wonder if they're setting the stage for "our love for Uta gives us the super form".
>>283127655I made a webm of the entire montage.See how Jogi has the Cure Idol shit grin at around 0:07? He's a born center, forced to muck around in the shadows while his shy and introspective partner steals the spotlight.
Bandai and Toei Animation's wet dream.
>>283127662I could see them focusing on Chokkirine for the next few episodes, redeem her, then do Jogi for the finale or prefinale arc.
>>283127693No, that's not the position for that. Trust me.
>>283127718>Uta reminded Kaito of a younger KazumaThat would be hilarious.
KOI NO MAKUI love you Kokoro-chan
>>283127727She needs the Christmas episode. I want the other two former generals helping her like what happened in Hugtto.
>>283127754>Uta reminded Kaito of a younger KazumaDespite typing up all that, I didn't think about that at all. I think you might be on to something.That'd be super hilarious.
>>283127718Do you have one of these for Headmaster and Bonerboy?
Just woke up, how was the latest Idolzzz snoozer?
>>283127827go back to sleep
>Kaito=Tako-san wiener that Uta wants to eatThat's... not a bad way to put it, Purirun.

>>283127987Dumb shitposter.
>>283128020I wasn't expecting ex-general fairy screentime this episode, but it's always fun when they appear. I like them a lot.
>>283127987Smart poster
>>283128039Cuttin might have become more of a generic Idol Precure fan but Zakkurin remains a hardcore Wink fan, it's funny to watch.
>>283127943Thanks 2chan, for reminding us that sex sells (even if it's gay sex aimed at little girls).

The reality is probably a Chinese factory somewhere.
>>283128080Can you fuck off now? You already spammed one thread, are you going to do it again?
>>283127987Suite had a tiny bit of hetbait between Seiren and Ouji, but that's nothing compared to Idol's hetbait. The previews of episodes 35 and 37 really egged people on, not to mention the entirety of episode 4. Pretty much everyone fell for it back then.

>>283128113The shot of their legs and feet going up as they fell back was the gayest part
>>283127620Now........................................................................
>>283128110Not in japan unfortunately.
>>283127864Lmaooo
I learned something new today.Anyone using "het" or "bait" are shitposters, no exceptions.It's too damn hard to discuss the episodes here because of this garbage.
>>283128156You can probably use something like White Rabbit to order from their online store, if you really want to.It's more convenient than going to Japan, although I have no idea how tariffs work these days.
>>283127987>TR>fujobaitHow is this possible when males are nonexistent in TR?
I'd most probably feel something if it wasn't Merorot saying that.What a shame.

>>283128203What part of he's shitposting do you not get?
>>283128113I've never seen Kaito this happy, he must really love Jogi
>>283128243He's never been anywhere near this expressive before this flashback.
>>283128185it's like this everywhere, shipping is all most people care aboutand it's not like anything else happened this episode

Thoughts on the episode by the Idol director.>https://twitter.com/kon_chiaki/status/1979724489115287937
>>283128271That hand at the end is very Ueno.
>>283128243Poor guy has been dead inside for so long. Maybe 3-5 years if he was about Uta's age back then
>>283128266>it's not like anything else happened this episodeDon't lie like that again.
>>283128271Look at that pained expression... he must really miss Jogi's dick
>>2831283113 years. He said he moved out from the town after graduating middle school IIRC.
>>283128317Nothing happened this episode. Point to the "something" that happened if you disagree.
>>283128297I like the implication that when he was looking out to the sea in episode 4, he was thinking about Kazuma
>>283128292
>>283128331New powerup, the fun scenes at the Pretty Store, and the fight are a few things.Fuck off.
>>283128317>poorly executed platonic friendship power up with a reused song that's just a pallet swapyeah I wonder why people aren't talking about it
A wise person on 2chan drew comparison between Jogi and Red.Jealousy is a terrible thing. Although I wonder what exactly Darkine offered Jogi to make him fall this far. Could she have used something like a Heart Kirari Lock to remove his jealous in return for his loyalty?>>283128266I don't mind the shipping talk because like you said, there wasn't much else happening this episode. But people trying to start fights over it are probably just trolling.
>>283128301>UenoI've never been able to really identify his style.
>>283128298Guess I'm just out of touch but I would have thought that doing an age gap ship like this would bring complaints from parents in 2025.
>>283128354>A wise person on 2chan drew comparison between Jogi and Red.I can do that too.They are both trash.
>first MeroPuri yuri>now Kaito is confirmed gayIt's like the universe is punishing hetards for being too cocky since the last season.
>>283128348>new powerupnothing>scenes at the Pretty Shillnothing>the fighthappens every single episode, nothingThank you for playing.
>>283128365Why is Jogi trash? He's cool and handsome.
>>283128371>tardsOh right, that was the other sign that someone is shitposting.Thanks.
>>283128355He was the AD for the ep (under Kuon Ragi), though the character designer corrected much of his work as the CAD. That hand is very recognizably Ueno though, he just draws them a certain way.
>>283128371It would be one thing if it were just that, but they strung along hetfags for 3 whole cours. That's extra sadistic
>>283128382>Thank you for playing.You think this is a game?
>>283128119It feels like Idol is riding on Wonderful’s coattails but it now won’t amount to anything now that we learned Kaito is still not over his friend (totally not homo).
>>283128398>Kuon RagiAhhhhI'll trust you on that recognizable hand, senpai
>>283128414Don't reply to shitposters that hate Precure.
>>283128371The most hilarious about all this is that they keep falling for the hetbaiting every single time.Literal crumbs will keep them going.
concert yea
>>283128354>probably
>>283128438What about shitposters that love precure?
gay
>>283128466yaoi hands
>>283128464There are posters that love precure and shitposters that love shitposting. They are not the same.
>>283128464Impossible.
Does this count as the first official full team panty shot of the franchise?
broken hearted
>>283128484Yes. It counts.
>>283128419I'm suddenly feeling bad for Uta.
Gonna repost this from the last thread.Our ever reliable Chinese uploader has uploaded the Idol live show:(1PM show) https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1cCWxzpESk/(8PM show) https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1MaWtzBEQmI still haven't finished watching it, but it's surprisingly fun. I had completely missed the ED2 single extra songs, but they are pretty good.
>>283128364that's probably why they made it so aggressively platonicBack when Idol first started I thought they were gonna do a Homare/Harry type plotline with KaitoUta and dip into the whole "idols can't have relationships" angle but I guess that was too spicy for parents
>>283128476What does that even mean? Guys tend to have big hands. Are literal kids posting here?
>>283128492Can you fap to it?
>Kaito's most important song was for a boy, Jogi, this whole timesomeone probably said that already, but it's a nice reminder and so unironically romantic. This isn't the first l implied BL in precure, but I think it's the cutest one because the guys have a very boyish and innocent feel when together, and one of them didn't die yet. This season isn't afraid to actually be somehow progressive with love, I hope they can pull this off well and make a gay version of Special Wonderful (implicit)They should call Narita, leave it to her to write a crazy episode for them
>>283128508>and one of them didn't die yetuh-oh...
>>283128508>and one of them didn't die yetBonerboy was still cute
>>283128419>My heart is broken but I promise I'll do everything I can to help you reunite with your boyfriend, Kaito-senpai!
like in 7 episodes from now at this rate
>>283128508meh, Gozyuger did this plotline better
geh
>>283128543Expected from a more mature show
That was the gayest scene in Precure since Mahou and the couple of gay magicians
>>283128563
This time it's very personal.
>>283128581HHNNNGGGGGGGGGG
>>283128500I don't know if I would call it aggressively platonic, I think a parent who watches with their kid will probably interpret Uta as crushing on Kaito with all of the blushing, but I guess as long as they don't overdo it from Kaito's side in return it'll be safe enough for parents.
>>283127614But it is censored shit mero... no swimsuit episode in kimipri due to Ishiba's censorship mero... which even dog had mero.. would precure next season have swimsuit episode as Ishiba has fallen mero?
>>283128543I mean, this is no peak BL, it's precure, a glorified toy commercial with soccer moms after it and a younger target audience. For a sanitized little girls show, this is still a lot, it will be their window to the genre>>283128524you are right, I felt for them, you can argue it was purer given that Kushee sacrificed himself for him, but he and the principal had mostly serious flashbacks, while these 2 are getting some very wholesome scenes, like, love blooming between them, and we'll get more
Hhmmm...
THEY'RE GAY! THEY'RE GAY HOMOSEXUALS!!! TWO MEN ARE IN LOVE WITH EACH OTHER!!!
>>283128677Yes!
>>283128677Gross!
Uta sweetie... he's not interested.
>>283128642>For a sanitized little girls show, this is still a lot,bruh fucking Kamen Rider gets away with more, this is baby shit
>>283128634Sanae will allow it.I consulted a fortune cookie to make sure my post is accurate, you can trust me.
>>283128695Poor Uta.
basically, this is a Kirarin/Pikario plot, but instead of sibilings, it's with gay lovers/friends. I can see where both Pikario and Kazuma are coming from, I do hope they go through with it this time, and maybe finally inserting some shady things about the industry as well because this season lacked that completely and kids need to know
As the person who posted that the new general was Kaito's ex during Jogi's debut episode, I would like to post I told you so.
>>283128735>maybe finally inserting some shady things about the industryafter the "being a stalker is good actually" episode I doubt they'll ever do that
>>283128752what is that place called again?
Who would want to associate with a useless general like Chokkirine?
>>283128697that's the point I was making: for baby shit, this is a lot, we aren't watching Hikaru or Yuri on Ice lmaoKaman rider has a boys audience, blood and darker moments, it makes sense for them to push things further. Do not forget precure suits are extremely anal and became worse by the years passing, so this is something.
>>283128770Mushroom Kingdom
>>283128739I always believed you anon
>>283128735This show isn't nearly idol industry focused enough to comment on that. It's more focused on the fan base side than the idol side.
>>283128674lmao
>>283128739/pc/ had been saying Kaito and Jogi possibly had a relationship (most likely homosexual) in the past for months now, but hetfags plugged their ears and refused to listen.And today, the inescapable Reality came to slap them in the face like the dumb whores they are.
>>283128779>>283128697Fuck off.
>>283128813Thanks anon
>>283128812>Uta after watching Kaito and Jogi's backstory
>>283128814true...but personally I can't get over the fact that their villain is literally a generic darkness queen instead of something related to the theme. The Witch of Delays had more depth to her character. They really aren't doing anything at all with the theme and that's frustrating because worshipping the idols 24/7 every ep just because, they're idols, is getting tiresome
>>283128827What do you gain from lying? There was a troll, you most likely, that said they had nothing between them and others said it was possible.
>>283128827I just thought it was bad writing to tie a minor character to a major villain and though Kaito's friend would be some one-off VotW
>That person didn't actually exist!!! It was you trolling!!!!1
>>283128870>The Witch of Delays had more depth to her characterAll of that was revealed late. Nothing says that they can't do the same again.
>>283128832nyo
Restraining Cures
>>283128813Mey mey deserved so much better than being kicked around by Daifuku. It felt mean spirited, hopefully they're mending things up with IdolI guess only pretty boys get to live gay romance
UTA NEEDS HER KAITO-SAN
>>283128904He got exactly what he deserved.
>>283128884Based piggy. I'll season you with my best spices.
>>283128888yes, but "Witch of delays" already suggested something more than "Darkiine" does, and I remember we got to know she was ill by this point.
>>283128941Not really.
<3<3<3<3
>>283128921why?
Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Uh oh, super melty
>>283128964"... and he was gay all along">>283128292
>>283128941we know Darkiine is some ancient evil that was born alongside Meroronit's already more than most generic evil blob villains
>>283128976kaito on the left
>>283128984Because he was trying to mess with Iroha and Satoru's date.They became friends afterwards anyway so it's all fine.
>>283129011
>>283128976Is this "sword fighting?"
>>283128964>the single earringwhy didn't anybody notice this before?
>>283129024it was noticed before
>>283129024i dideveryone who wasnt blind did
>>283129024You're very stupid, aren't you?
It finally happened, someone broke
>>283129012he was kicked by Daifuku when he hugged Satoru at the end, that's what I was talking about. That's his ending..
>>283129033Ace fucked THAT?
>>283129046happens every year
>>283129024He's wearing it in the straight ear anyway. Ire wears his in the gay ear.
Hetfags finally went insane after too much bullying
>>283129047You have to admit, it was a pretty nice kick.
seems like this time they might make things official. You could say that happened with Hugtto, but it was only heavily implied. This thing is plot relevant and Uta powered up with it
>>283128990
I'll support Uta till the end.
>>283129080I won't because fuck the rabbit
>>283129111
>>283129070Don't even try that. It doesn't need to be one or the other side, can't we just agree that it's a human piece of garbage and leave it at that?>>283129086I'm not sure what you mean.
>>283129123would Mayu be a fujo as well? Or she sticks to het only?
>>283129114Daifuku is cool. Komugi agrees.
>>283129144She embraces all kinds of love
>>283129144She's interested in her friends getting together.
>>283129144considering she's part Narita self inserting, only het. Narita seems to not be fond of gay stories at all, unless they're yuri lite
>>283129144Nothing points to her being a supercreep.
>>283129160Why is she posted shipping characters outside her show then?
>>283129123YesBoys and girlsBoys and boysGirls and girlsWomen and birds
>>283129144I feel like most precures would support love regardless of whether its straight or gay. Love is too precious to discriminate.Also, Mayu is quite gay herself.
>>283129165>considering she's Narita self insertingftfy
>>283129184Women and cats
>>283129024People noticed but brushed it off since Kaito wore it in the straight ear. It only become noteworthy when Jogi came in wearing the same earing on the gay ear.
>>283129186Mayu said she's never been in love so try again.
>>283129193Holy shit I never noticed that!They ARE a couple
>>283129186>supportyes, most cures are good girls with an open mind and aiming for a better world>fangirl over itI doubt it. But Mayu would I think. I hope for Uta she will as well, so she's not too heartbroken
So this is the special power of love, not bad...
>>283128721We're supposed to feel sorry for the girl who's led on and turned down dozens of people herself?
>>283129225>who's led on and turned down dozens of people herself?I really hope this is part of a gimmick.
>>283129194If she's never been in love how can she counsel others about it and intrude in their romantic affairst then?
>>283127555>every "het kaito" episode has yuri and yaoi shippinglmao even
uh, this place has been cohesively supportive of gayness, last thread went crazy for it. What happened? I thought most of you were chuds
>>283129241There's no rule that says you have to be in love to discuss love.
is Idol the most woke Precure since Hugttothey even made a potential love interest gay like western shows love to do
>>283129251U-uh... she's kind of hot...
>>283129252Isn't that great? Everyone cares about Kaito-sama now.
>>283129256You shouldn't discuss about something you know nothing about.
>>283127555I hate that they reduced most of Kokoro's screentime to a catchphrase because as a character she isn't half bad but never let her shine truly after mother's day
>>283129259Adorbs!!!!
>>283129283Another shitposter that doesn't watch Idol.
>>283129266NOTHING CHANGED, ONLY THE HAIR IS PINK NOWWAKE UP, YOU'RE COLORSEXUAL
Idol Smiling Echo!!!
>>283129267I still don't care about him much, can't forgive how he treated Idol back then. I'm more interested in what's going on with Jogi
>>283129314>I still don't care about him much, can't forgive how he treated Idol back thenYou mean supporting her? Yeah, damn him for helping Uta, right?
>>283129186From around Fresh onwards. Cures before that are a mixed bag due to being born in the late 80s to early 90s.Nagisa: Hates gay people Honoka: TolerantHikari: TolerantSaki: Hates gaysMai: TolerantNozomi: Dislikes gays a littleRei: SameYes 5 Yellow, Blue, and Green: TolerantMilk: Very homophobicAfter that there's no more Cure homophobes.
>>283129314>can't forgive how he treated Idol back thenUta did not have her revenge on Kaito-sama from episode 4 after all. Hope you don't mind.
>>283129252this place is overwhelmingly yurifags who hate straight romance and are celebrating because a gay ship killed one.I guess they were bitching about fujos last year because Satoru/Daifuku didn't kill SatoIro
>>283129328Stalking her around every corner is creepy as fuck, even for a gay man
>>283129335I can only see Milk and maybe Nagisa, to a lesser extent. How are Nozomi and Saki homophobic? Even headcanon wise, it doesn't make sense
>>283129354>this place is overwhelmingly yuriIt is not. You aren't on /u/, idiot.
>>283129252A man or woman's sexual orientation is their own business. As long as they don't rape my ass, I'm fine with most things.>>283129272It depends. Emotional support doesn't actually require much experience. It's like rubber duck debugging: Iroha needed to talk about her feelings. Mayu was someone she could at.Of course, there are more difficulty scenarios, but in this case, Mayu knew Satoru also liked Iroha, so providing the needed support required almost no experience. She just had to let their relation follow its natural course and at most nudge it along.
>>283129359He isn't gay and when did he even stalk Uta?
>>283129359Stalking Uta is pretty normal. A lot of guys do that.
>>283129354many yurifags ARE chuddies, anon. Yuri bait itself is a chud thing. Boys are gross but It's ok when girls do it, as long as they do not commit to it and I can fetishize them
>>283129379Is there even a precure thread on /u/?
Depending on how the #KaitoJogi arc goes, Reddit may nominate Idol for Anime of the Year 2025
>>283128926Save me some
>>283129351she's extra adorable here, don't let anyone ever hurt her
>>283129046*plucks forehead*
>>283129430Extremely cute Ako.
>>283129438>Jogi-kun... I can still feel your fist in me...
>>283129313Smiling Idol Echo?
>>283129433Hikaru stole that place already in regards to gay shipping
>>283129442Kanade would dress up as a bitch for Halloween.
>>283129422>many yurifags ARE chuddies, anonwouldn't a chud yurifag imagine himself raping the girls into straightness instead of seething about men though
>>283129464Yeah but Reddit doesn't nominate gay girls, only gay guys.
>>283129484>raping the girls into straightnessYou're confused. Those are hetfags.
It's kind of amazing how much Wonderful Precure is influencing this season in one particular aspect.
>>283129500>>283129484>>283129487Fuck off.
>>283129484Why would a yurifag want to turn a girl straight?You make no sense.
>>283129505True. Both seasons had gay characters, but Mehmeh was a sheep.
>>283129484that what I was saying with>as long as they do not commit to it and I can fetishize themnotice that in most "yuri" shows the girls never kiss or get an actual romantic moment? there's a whole anime making a point about this>seething about men thoughcan't help retardation>>283129487kek, should've seen this coming. Hikaru is gay too after all
This is the best episode ever! Uta has moved on from Kaito so now she will date me! I'm so happy!
This is what an optimal idol bean store looks like. By removing redundant variations, production and logistics can be made efficient. Everyone may not get their ideal bean experience, but they get a satisfactory experience at the best price.
>>283129538>Hikaru is gayNot even once in ST.
>>283129528When Nana and Kokoro were pushing away the airheaded Purirun, it reminded me of Mayu-sama and Yuki getting the clueless Komugi away from a confession scene on the sunset beach.It's the exact same thing.
>>283129561it's a nice detail
>>283129555Hikaru is literally married to Lala
>>283129552Don't shitpost with Himari.
>>283128990Guessing it will probably be like>Jogi gets purified>Kazuma and Kaito hug>Kazuma winks to Uta going I'll support you ;)>Uta freaks out while Kaito is cluelessGoing by how this episode played to both sides.
>>283129178>get new toy after fist bumping your motw crush
>>283129538>notice that in most "yuri" shows the girls never kissbut I've seen lots of yuri anime with kisses, it's usually more for fanservice than anything romantic but it's still there
>>283129442>許せない>"unforgivable"SEAESL cringelators at it again.
>>283129573>Going by how this episode played to both sides.What does that mean? What sides?
Hikaru and Lala are Mirai and Liko lite, but I'd argue it could be a romance like it could be a very deep friendship, it's not as implicit as Mirai and Liko. They're definitely soulmates tho, Hikaru thought about Lala until the very end
>>283129624They are all just friends. They will only ever be friends because Japan is full of cowards too afraid to push a relationship between them for real.
>>283129505>Purirun is the Komugi this season
>>283129599that's the point. They kiss so the audience gets off to it, like a soft porn, but there are hardly romantic moments
>>283129233If my gimmick is calling people out for their crimes, then sure.
I'm not a fan of this season but I'll support Uta's quest for Special Kirakkiranran till the end.
>>283129614Best and only subs for suite btwMeanwhile people ignore the better HC subs for doremi when commie for once like a broken clock made good subs
>>283129652you have to read between the lines, Mirai and Liko's romance was very implicit, but it was definitely there, they kiss in the manga>inb4 that's not canonstill licensed by Toei. Purirun and Meroron are also more than friends, you don't kiss your friend like Meroron did
>>283129538Sex with Hikaru oneesan
>>283129676What does she say there?
>>283129538>notice that in most "yuri" shows the girls never kiss or get an actual romantic moment? there's a whole anime making a point about thisThere's definitely starting to be a few more lately, though. MagiRevo, SasaKoi, IILWTV, WataNare.
>>283129683>you have to read between the linesI don't care. They are cowards.>they kiss in the mangaThere was no kiss and you know it. It was more teasing garbage.>Purirun and Meroron are also more than friendsMeroron maybe but not Purirun. She treats everyone the same.
>>283129688Something about how bitter she is and that she'd make a better partner than Joji. She doesn't plan to give up, ever.
>>283129573Kaito is never getting with Uta, due to age gap and everything. Long are gone the times of Cocoda and Nozomi. Also, Jogi is probably very jealous of Kaito
>>283129688The pleasure of being idlezzz'd inside.
>>283129716Two years ago isn't that long ago. I don't think they will be a couple anyway but you shouldn't say silly things like that.
Cure Idol... kimi wa....
>>283129619The Kaito/Jogi backstory was gay as fuck, but it didn't negate from the fact that Uta still has strong feelings for Kaito and that there will still be more to the relationship now that he's figured out Cure Idol's identity (which they are putting on a tour bus for later). It basically developed both the gay and the het, and while I don't think Kaito will show Uta romantic feelings during the actual show, Jogi knows how she feels and will probably be happy to support and tease her about it.
Kaito came back and took a break from his Idol activities in order to make things right with Jogi. He got interested in Uta because she reminded him of Jogi, but ultimately, once Jogi is healed and their bonds are restored, they'll sail away into the sunset towards New York where Kaito will do the right and proper thing and let Jogi shine together with him as the duo idol group he intended for them to be.
>>283129713>they are cowardswe can agree on that>>283129694I guess things are slowly changing now, that's a good thing
>>283129713>There was no kiss and you know it. It was more teasing garbage.NTA but they are kissing, you can see Liko pulling her closer. Would be nicer if they would do something that you didn't have to squint to see, of course.
Ep 37 subs:https://nyaa.si/view/2032879https://nyaa.si/view/2032878
Why are people pretending a four year age gap is an insurmountable mountain?
>>283129712mahou is so childish and cringe
>>283129794Jogi has no idol experience, it doesn't work thay way.
>>283129810Oh nice, even you are encouraging the shitposters here.
>>283129810See you in next week's 801 thread, Serenae
>>283129810>EOP enablercringe
>>283129810Canon screenshot
>>283129813Uta is a child and Kaito is 18. Like, he isn't an adult either, not even close, but he has a career already and lives like an adult. It's not just age, there's a big life experience gap
>>283129810This was the original dialogue before Toe nerfed it
>>283129862Yeah, and Mayu ships Tsubasa with Ageha.
>>283129810LMAO the subs
>>283129862so what, this is the same board that was drooling over Hana/George
>>283129862>there's a big life experience gapUta is an idol too, you know. The gap isn't as big as you think it is.
>>283129899That doesn't count because it just doesn't, OK?
>>283129819
>>283129899yes, but that was for older Hana. I don't think anons ever saw young Yell and George differently than a young hopeful girls supporting a depressed man
>>283129899And that George was at least 40 something. Hana liked him so much she married and had a kid with the George of her timeline.
>>283129911
>>283129932>I don't think anons ever saw young Yell and George differently than a young hopeful girls supporting a depressed mananon...
>>283129904Uta is pure and hasn't seen the stuff Kaito saw during his career. Uta is a magical idol, Kaito is an actual idol
>>283129940This is a fine image that sums up what Mahouzzz should have felt like for most of its run length. Would have been a top-tier season if it actually was this magical all the time.
>>283129932You were not here back then.
>>283129951>hasn't seen the stuff Kaito saw during his careerI'll bite, what stuff?
>Nana, Kokoro, Purirun and Meroron literally transformed for NOTHINGAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, this shitshow turned into Digimon Frontier's final arc.
>>283127681There's precedent on magical girls curing homosexuality. See Sakura and Syaoran or Ahiru and Fakir
>>283129983Guess you can't use the "we give our power to Idol" angle anymore, can you?
>>283129932She blushed at him and I'm pretty sure the staff confirmed that the middle aged George was Hana's first love.
>>283129998She doesn't even need their power! They jobbed got caught and then even after Uta freed herself they couldn't do anything against some black tape.
>>283129954Ok zzz spammer, I know Mahou is your b-tier because you keep posting about it, but what is your precure top-tier? Genuine question.
>>283130011>I'm pretty sure the staff confirmed that the middle aged George was Hana's first loveBingo.
>Kaito MotW binds Uta by herself but Wink/Kyun and Zukyoon/Kiss together>somehow Uta alone is able to free herself while the combined power of 2 of the others can't do anythingThis is so fucking sad bros... I haven't seen anything like this since Doki...
>>283130028
>>283129862>18>not even close to an adult18/19 is the beginning of adulthood and I was 18 a long time ago.
>>283130016Uta "jobbed" too but she had the focus episode advantage. Remember that Nana had that when she purified a general by herself. It's a strong boost.
>>283129826Kaito is a legend idol. He can pull strings to make it happen, or at least give Jogi a chance.Auditions aren't perfect, Jogi was good enough to pass and the judges made a mistake in passing up on him.
*seeds*
>>283129911Haaa~
>>283130075The other ones don't have super forms, though, so there's no way for them to beat a MotW on their own...
>>283130073So the z spammer is the Maho hater and the recent HaCha troll.And people say that shitposters aren't just one anon.
>>283130074technically. Basically, you really are just a grown kid that can vote at 18. Times changed too
>>283128080this is a crazy revelation in our puritanical worldkids enjoy sexy stuff in media too.
>>283130073I see. What do you like so much about Heartcatch and Happiness Charge?
>>283130028mahou is stupid childish boring shit
this suddenly appearing wtf
Hibiki Kaito-samaI'm super glad everyone is caring for him now.
How many episodes of Uta Roja saving the day do we need before we declare this Doki 2?
>>283130167Actually EXTREMELY important to the plot, as we knew all along.I officially kneel.
>>283130122They've done it before.
>>283130167can't believe all it took was making him gaywould people like Blue better if he was actually gay for Red
Cute boyfriends!
>>283130164>>283130203Heartcatch goes hard at times.
>>283130225It'd have given him a much better reason to reject Mirage and turn her evil.
Nana's outfit worn by an actual adult is way too lewd. I applaud whoever designed this.
https://youtu.be/qnp6nM1q0jc?si=K3Qiu3rGC1zLnjUj
>>283130204That was before the MotW leveled up and they needed Uta Roja to save them.
>>283130232holy FUCK
>>283130232"close friends*
>>283130225Being gay is a symbolic castration. It mean he won't touch the waifus

Tsubomi...
>>283130339And who do you think made that motw? Idiot.
Uta is PISSED that Kaito led her on by taking her on a date. She is not going to forgive this any time soon. Her revenge will be swift, merciless, and eternal.
>>283130378>Her revenge will be swift, merciless, and eternal.*keeps masturbating to Kaito-sama and orgasming within 45 seconds every time*
>>283130374The Sasuga Man?
>>283129813A 4 year gap is different when you're still growing. 20 and 24 is nothing, but 12 and 16 is huge in terms of development. 14 and 18 is pretty big.
>>283130424And in a few years the gap won't mean anything.
Idol's song is the only good finisher song to this day. Kokoro's is nice too, but not as good
>>283130424Yeah and so are Uta's titties which she will use to seduce Kaito into forgetting about the age gap
>>283130350Hey, there's nothing wrong with that but shoujo has a long proud tradition of pairing teen girls with adult men.
>>283128026hope you liked all the maho books uploaded
>>283130447But Uta is flat.....
>>283130453Age gap romances were romantic in 1994 but now you'll be canceled if you have a couple in your story where both parties weren't born the exact same day.
>>283130463O_____O
>>283129983It's nowhere near Frontier level bad. Frontier level bad would be if Uta spent the next 20 episodes jobbing to Kaito over and over again while the rest of them gawked from the sidelines.
No matter how much 3D gay porn gets posted here, no matter how much muh gay trolling gets posted, Special Kirakkiranran continues.
>>283130466Yes, thanks again anon, you made my week. I'm reading the short stories from one of them right now.
>>283130543Be honest, do you think Uta and Kaito will be a couple?
>>283130556noat most they might have a joke where Kazuma thinks Uta is Kaito's girlfriend after he gets purified but even that's probably too much
Cute beans.
>>283130453I know, I watched it as a kid as well. I'm not some twitter schizo screaming about pedophilia, but I have to admit that to me a 18 y.o. teen with a career with a 13 y.o. kid feels a little weird. And besides, I'm shipping Kaito with Jogi kek, but I don't want Uta to suffer!
>>283130626Fuck off.
>>283130587>thinksUta straight up told Jogi that she doesn't know how Kaito feels about her, but she knows how she feels about him. He might tease them though.

>>283130556I believed something would happen since episode 4, getting a date episode was really unexpected and I'm grateful for that. So far I don't see any reasons why I should give up.Short answer: it's possible.The yuri shit this season was garbage, it's not hard to deduce how I feel about Kaito x Jogi holding hands in a flashback.Be careful, Uta is still in the game.
So now that Uta x Kaito has been sunk, is Uta FINALLY going to address Nana's obvious romantic feelings for her? Been the elephant in the room since episode 2.
>>283130647so Jogi doesn't care about Kaito right? It's one sided

Buki tiem?
YAY BUKI TIEM
>>283131156
Last episode was pretty great. I think it would have been better if Kaito was a more established character and Uta's bond with him felt like it actually warranted its own power up, but 31 and 35 gave him enough that I could care about him in the last episode. I don't think the first 30 episodes helped much in that regard. Not really sure if the show is actually going for Uta being one-sidedly romantically in love with Kaito or if it's 100% platonic. Other seasons would be more direct if a Cure were one-sidedly in love with a guy, age gap or no age gap. The other Cures seem to think it's romantic, but Uta seems way more invested in hooking up Kaito back with Jogi than being in a relationship with him.
Ribbons represent bonds in this show, so it was neat to to see one come out of the fist bump between Idol and motw Kaito.
>>283131223I don't think it can be any clearer that Uta's feelings towards Kaito are romantic.>Uta seems way more invested in hooking up Kaito back with Jogi than being in a relationship with himOne does not negate the other, and she cares enough about him that she knows what she should prioritize.
I've seen enough. Idol is a Top 3 season.
>>283131258this ain't the electoral college my man
>>283131223>Other seasons would be more direct if a Cure were one-sidedly in loveIt wasn't one sided but Fresh?
>>283131258Meroron bitch mode is too big a gap for me to overcome even if I like the rest of the cast. I can't really rate Idol highly.
>>283131223>but Uta seems way more invested in hooking up Kaito back with Jogi than being in a relationship with him.She's not very honest with her own feelings. It makes absolutely zero sense for Uta to be blushing with saying picrel.It's obviously about her too.
>>283131287More like Mero stopped being a bitch ruined the season
>>283131250What's bothering me is that there is a sense of ambiguity when there normally wouldn't be. It was with a side character, but Idol has already had one one-sided romance so far, two if you count the love letter guy (I don't really count that since his crush lasted like a day before he redacted it. At least volleyball girl had closure before she moved on.)
>>283131287Shut up faggot
>>283131299>What's bothering me is that there is a sense of ambiguity when there normally wouldn't beAgain, Fresh. Remember Love?
>>283130838Merocute
>>283131258Retard
>>283131266Maybe the thing with Fresh was that Love only viewed Daisuke as a friend, which is why she didn't give him a clear answer. I like Daisuke enough to cheer for him, but if Love doesn't love him romantically, that's the end of that.
that combo after breaking free from the ropes was insane. i wonder what the peak of rojo uta's power looks like.
>>283131297Meroron has been more likeable at least but it does feel a bit like something is missing. I don't think Idol is ruined though.
>>283131299I don't think there's any sense of ambiguity, they're just showing instead of telling or stating directly, which isn't uncommon in Japanese works, or even in Precure. Last year you had people shitposting about how Iroha never reciprocated Satoru's feelings, sometimes saying "I love you" in an indirect manner is leaves a greater impact than it would if it were said straight.
Meroron has elevated Idol to peak levels since debuting.
>>283131337It felt to me like she was teasing him there. I don't think she would do that after everything he said if she didn't like him.
>>283131369fifteen years old body and mind.
>>283131299Are you being retarded on purpose?
>>283131369No. We had some great episodes after her debut but they weren't because of her.
>>283131381>mindNot in Purirun's case.
>>283131369Meromommy
>>283131369I do feel like episodes 12 and on are generally better than the first 11 episodes. The only episode I would say was kind of subpar after Meroron's debut was 13. 14 on has been mostly a blast with at worst an ok episode every once in a while.
>>283131358>sometimes saying "I love you" in an indirect manner is leaves a greater impact than it would if it were said straight.The whole point of "Special Wonderful" was to make the kids understand the difference between romantic love and love for family, friends and the like. A deliberate attempt to make the Iroha and Satoru bond be perceived as special.I'm still surprised some people don't get what they were trying to do last year.
>>283131332Merorotten >>283131369Merostink
>>283131399Purirun is a 15 year old angelMeroron is a 15 year old devil
>>283131358>they're just showing instead of telling or stating directly,That's like the definition of being ambiguous though. For the record, I don't think the Special Wonderful episode was ambiguous.
Subs turned koi into romance, doesn't koi mean love? Censored subs?
Each episode that featured Uta and Kaito it was properly portrayed that emotions were slowly starting to build up for Uta. Love is not something that is suddenly realized but builds up slowly over time and each time Kaito and Uta interacted you could tell something was blooming. It shouldn't come as a surprise that Uta ended up liking Kaito.Now these interactions are completely different to that of Satoru and Iroha. You could tell those feelings were platonic and Satoru never did anything you would consider flirty whether intentional or not. It wasn't until Satoru's accidental confession that Iroha had to ponder if her feelings were the same. Compared to Idol, this was a more forced approach to relationship.
Merosex
>>283131492Just say you don't know Japanese and move on.
>>283131494Wonderful did it better.
>>283131492words can mean more than one thingjust because you saw a word translated a certain way once doesn't mean it must always be translated that way every timejapanese words don't match on to english words 1:1
>>283131332Meroyum
Fujos are having fun with the season>>283131492Koi generally means romantic love, which means the other Cures definitely thought Uta was in love, though Uta herself hasn't clarified anything about the issue.
>>283131494I just don't understand how people would think Uta liking Kaito was forced when it was clear she was interested in him. I mean, he literally unlocked Trio Dreams for the group.
>>283131494>each time Kaito and Uta interacted you could tell something was blooming.>4Possibly romantic, though possibly just flustered by his star power>5Treated him like a normal mentor, no romantic development>11Kaito just encouraged Uta to follow her dream of being with her friends forever, 0 romantic development again>13Uta shows curiosity about Kaito's past while Kaito gives a non-answer, maybe slight romantic development if you squint>23Kaito gives idol advice, maybe romantic development>310 romantic development, Kaito just encouraged her to treasure her friends>35Possibly some romantic development, but the only thing clear is that Uta really cares about Kaito's well-being, like with her other friends.>37See above but with Kaito being even more obviously gay.
>>283131491I don't think it was ambiguous that Hana fell in love with George, and all she did was blush at him once. The framing is incredibly important, and I would argue that Kokoro calling it 恋 is more than enough of a confirmation anyway.
>>283131562Because if I don't like it then it means people who like it are trolls, and predictions by trolls never happen and if they do then it's bad writing
>>283131610You can stop with the Kaito is gay jokes now.
>>283131623I don't know, it seems plausible that Uta's friends are all mistaken about Uta's feelings for Kaito. I especially don't really trust Meroron on the matter.
>>283131623Hana did a bit more than that. The hug and how she acted after the final battle is a big clue.
>>283131525Boyfriends
They should take inspiration from the classic CCS and make Uta be genuinely in love with Kaito but he's gay so she will have to tearfully get rejected while cheering for his love.
>>283131680I don't remember Sakura being that bothered that Yukito was gay, but it has been a long while since I've seen CCS.
>>283131680>They should take inspiration from the classic CCSThey already did kind of, by adding filler.
>>283131494I just went back to reevaluate this scene in light of Kaito's potential romance with Kazuma, and holy shit, that 'secret' is pregnant with meaning.>>283131610Good detective work. This webm is a scene from episode 13 (the scene?).
>>283131705She pretends to be fine and then goes to the park and starts crying in front of Syaoran.
>>283131718Yeah, when I initially saw that scene, I thought that it was likely Kaito had a past love and that Kaito/Uta likely wasn't happening. I didn't expect his past love to be a guy though.
>>283131610She was attracted to him as soon as he told her he wanted to see her again, the episodes following was just her getting more and more attached, and sometimes more attracted to him. The other anon was correct about her emotions "slowly starting to build up", it doesn't always have to be the cocklust part of it.>>283131654She's never denied her friends' assumptions.>>283131664No, I was referring to how she fell for him early on. IIRC the staff implied that they later chose George to be Hana's husband because she was her first love (the episode where she blushed at him), but her feelings clearly came to a halt after her gave her PTSD.

>>283129252You're retarded if you think a sugary kids show means it's all gay. We casual viewers don't care about participating in your delusion.
>anti-het fag
Is it weird that I'm starting to think Idol is similar to HaCha?
>>283131761Merocringe
I only watch Wonderful through Twitter pics but damn. Today's levels of bromance was shonen tier
>>283132022?
>>283129862>nooo you can't date a teenage girl if you are over 17 years, 364 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds old
>>283132003There's some similarities here or there, but there's no Blue, and I don't feel like there's any moment that feels as blatant rewrite as Megumi's mom.
>>283132053>there's no BlueThank the lord for that.>I don't feel like there's any moment that feels as blatant rewrite as Megumi's mom.Meroron's quick shift was pretty sudden but I don't think that or Megumi's mom was a rewrite.
Finally watching today's episode. Why is she blushing so hard just after seeing him walking by? God, i hate little girls
>>283129165>Narita seems to not be fond of gay stories at all, unless they're yuri liteSo she’s like Naoko?
Why are they touching hands now? This is so fucking gay even for a kodomo
>>283132003How so? That would require Idolzzz to be good.
>>283132041It wouldn't seem weird if she was 16 or 17.
>>283132184Callback to when Uta encouraged Nana as a kid.
Calm down, Uta, He just complimented your song. Is another seashell showing up?
Lmao at this reaction
For some reason, it feels less weird to have precures date adults than it'd be if they were ordinary girls.Probably because of the usual power gap between adults and young teenagers isn't present? The Cures mostly act mature and the fact that they are basically the most powerful and important people in the world kind of lowers or maybe even inverts the usual power-imbalance which would normally make such relationships unappetizing.
Man, this is such a classic romance plot of girl in love helps crush restore his bonds thus making him fall for her. It might just actually make this less of a generic Precure romance than the last couple of ones
>>283130689>Uta/NanaThis is the real crackship of the season.
Time for morning coffee and precure!
Holy shit, Uta went full power of love mode
made me smile
>>283132311To me, that's the appeal of fictional age gaps. I usually don't like them when they're told through the POV of the older character, but when done through the younger one, it's basically a power fantasy to be able to capture the heart of an older, more mature person. I'm also pretty fond of the ones where the older character is a dumbass and just as inexperienced in love as the younger one though.
Peak episode>Kaito backstory>Kaito and Kazuma bromance with homoerotic undertones (Just like i like them)>Uta's love realization and power of love momentI rate this episode 10 out of 10
Finally, some long deserved bean spotlight!
>>283132391>I rate this episode 10 out of 10In any other season it would be a 5/10 at best.
>>283132391>bromancejust friends
>>283132391The bond of friendship
>>283132477Bromance and Best Friends is basically the same
>>283132501no, fuck off with your gay fantasies
>>283128364>Guess I'm just out of touch but I would have thought that doing an age gap ship like this would bring complaints from parents in 2025.Bros, your Coco/Nozomi, Hana/George, and Harry/Hagumi? Japan has never ever once cared about age gaps, they don’t view it as inappropriate for little girls to view, if anything it’s considered fanservice for them. They’re not Westoids.
WE WILL GIVE OUR POWER TO NANA!
Girls belong with older men, which is why every anon on /pc/ should get to marry their cure wife.
>>283132508Bro, i'm not saying they are gay. I am just saying they share a memeable friendship
>>283132572>I WANT TO HAVE BABIES WITH KAITO-SANThat's basically what she is saying. The balls of these children shows
Busted!The climax of this episode was cool but it was cheapened a bit because Uta did not interact much with Kaito and the cheap DBS recolour.
>>283132572Special platonic friend
>>283132625No she does have feelings for him but it won't matter. They already says he will go on a world tour soon.
>>283132501>>283132604Nobody asked or cares about your off-topic garbage.
