What do we think about villains team?
>>285730605https://x.com/curehibiki01/status/2017758059830120884WHO SHIPPING PROBLEMATIC?
Calm Down Japan.
>>285730605They sure look like villainous villains about to do villainous villain things for villainous reasons
>>285730638Yeah, PreCure magic baby!
>>285730605The big boss looks like a bigger version of the hanninder lolWouldn't be surprised the whole team is a fake team assembled by Arcana Like first half of Maho
>>285730750Thank you zoetrope anon
>>285730605Main villain seemed very threatening, like actual threatening in that shot where he's taking Ruruka, but I think he's going to be a Dokuroxy 2.0. since this is a detective season and showing off the main villain so soon might be a red herring when 4 season before SD waited for the very end to show it. We'll have to figure out the real villain throughout the show and we might end up with a secondary set of villains, Murayama often switches villains halfway or uses twist villains.The generals are the best ones we got design wise since Hugtto, that burly guy reminds me of Guaiwaru and Oresky, Gyaru girl will be tons of fun to watch
The splash star homage is because it had the first villains to turn into precure.
>>285730605This is my first Pretty Cure so I don't really have a metric to judge them but so far they seem cool. It's nice to have the enemies of detectives be phantom thieves. Reminds me a little of Lupinranger vs Patranger.
>>285730878Maho and ST both had main villain fakeouts so it's pretty likely.
>>285730961>first precurejust know that they weren't putting this much effort in a season since years. Watch some other seasons before, SD looks so good it might sour your enjoyment of other seasons
Will SD be watchable for yurifags
>Anna's mom has a different seiyuu than Mikuru>but on the other hand she's just listed as "Anna's mom"It all feels like a huge red herring to me
>>285730982>main villain fakeouts so it's pretty likelyA twist villain trope is almost guaranteed, though this guy looks genuinely evil, so much so that the opening emphasizes it. I do wonder about the secondary set of villains. These guys are thieves who are after people's treasured things, but the show has a time theme as well, so I wonder if we're getting space-time related villains later on that know about Pochitan.
>>285730987>just know that they weren't putting this much effort in a season since years.I'm sure the same thing was said about Idol. You guys overhype things way too much.
>>285731082this is a woman, isn't it?
>>285730987>>285730961Last time we had a 1st episode this good was Star Twinkle, what a coincidence that it's from the same writer.
>>285731041>same hair>same eye color>same earring (transformed vs adult)>same transforming itemThe only mystery is with whom she gave birth to Anna
>>285731082>>285731102It is a lie from Shadow Arcana
>>285731100>you guysI liked Idol's first episodes but I was one of the anons that wasn't into it at all when the season got revealed since the trademark, quite the opposite. You are blind if you can't see that, at least concept wise, SD is much more complex and exciting compared to Idol who had a very simplistic premise from the start
>>285731100First half of Idol was really really good though
Yuri bros what scraps are we getting this year? Who will be the cat / Meroron of SD?
>>285731041A character having different VAs for child and adult version isn't uncommon

>>285731155 Ruruka and Eclair
What's the connection?Other than being overly sexual
https://x.com/yutakadetective/status/2017814792292208684
>>285731169>>285731127It is pretty uncommon for female characters to have a different seiyuu when they're older, but that's literally the only evidence corroborating Mikuru and Anna's mom being different people. There's also this scene in the opening which is kind of weird, but doesn't outright point at them not being the same person.
>>285731182ambiguity of Japanese language
https://x.com/JacobPrecure/status/2017843572809118206
From the OP alone, I'm inclined to believe Eclair is the patissiere girl. Miyadani Risa is credited as the sub-character designer this year (Yano is doing both the GochiUsa and the 100Kano designs as well), and she already designed characters as important as the villain generals. From the side characters in the foreground (the classmates in particular look different), you can see how her characters have more angular faces, as well as smaller irises. The girl in the glasses and the teacher look similar in this vein.But the patissiere's face is drawn similarly to the main characters: rounder, with irises that fill out the eyes more. It's worth noting that Haruyama was the chief animation director for the villains in Idol, so it's likely that Miyadani was the one who corrected her own designs in the OP.
https://x.com/sosii__79/status/2017798036173558080
maybe Mikuru has a sister? Still, Anna's mom looks exactly like her, not even similar, it's just grown up Mikuru with a different voice and the same pendant she is using now. I think this might be that kind of scenario people think is too obvious to be true but it's actually true
>>285731215There are weird inconsistencies like fairies being a common knowledge in 99 but not 27

>>285731264They're going to have to touch upon it in the second episode because surely Anna will at least find it a funny coincidence that Mikuru has the same first name as her mom, unless she changes it for some reason in the future.>>285731276Alternate timelines could be a very real possibility too, hence the different voice actor between 1999 Mikuru and 2027 "Mikuru".

>>285728491Yes, I am aware that 昔 doesn't necessarily mean "ancient". I added that word to preserve the humor of the line. Using 昔 there is a little bit funny, as Japanese fans can attest to. It's a bit stronger than using, say, 過去. I stand by my translation there, I think it fits.Continue to throw your criticism at me, I don't even care if it's rude. I will sift through the tone and use the constructive points to make the best subs I can.

>>285731336To explain Seregae's point hereBy using 昔 (mukashi - ancient) to describe going back in history to 1999, to the Japanese, it's like Anna calling a console that you grew up with "retro". Suddenly the things that you considered modern and now "old"

>>285731664The first combination Cure…
>>285731664This kind of proves my point if anything. You can see how the style of the pastry girl's face is closest to Eclair's, versus the other two who look more angular.
>>285731644alas, that's true. Idol's unearned revenue will give Toei more reasons to not put any effort whatsoever into writing and directing a decent show.

>>285731732>the gay>the musclewhy did you mention that one general 2 times?
>>285731712Yeah, because Eclair's identity is meant to be a mystery.But Yano's faces are noticeably softer and rounder compared to the Mirisa characters.
>>285731759The only thing bad is Kazuma and Kaito taking away screen time from Chokkorine and DarkquineOtherwise Idol is perfect
>>285731780Versus a recent Mirisa illustration. The blue haired girl is her own design.
Arcana Shadow is the first character in the franchise to be openly evil while holding the "Cure" title, since Cure Supreme from All-Stars F, who was also a villainous Cure. However, she did not reveal her true colors until much later, while Arcana Shadow openly is a rival to the Star Detective Precure.
>>285731138Ruruka pulling a Goyan would be too good to be true but it's an exciting theory that she formed the phantom thieves herself. She's the most prominent out of the villain group
Mommy Arcana...
Hey imagine if they started going closer to Anna’s timeline over time and started meeting a Cure from each season a-la Decade
>>285731867unironically this was the best season idea for the 25th anniversary, but I'm glad we're getting it now
>>285731867Thank god this isn't an anniversary season and there's no shitty forced crossovers

Hopefully Niji-sama and Ruruka will be good partners.
>>285731215Honestly, the op seems to imply more strongly that Mikuru's mom and Anna's mom are the same person (which is going to imply some silly time antics, like the two timelines being parallel but offset by 28 years for some reason)

>>285732043Technically speaking, what's stopping the scanlines on a CRT television being vertical instead of horizontal?

We know eyes are supposed to change color this season when a cure transforms>sky blue girl has her same hairstyle and hair lenght, but we know hair grows from short to long for every cure>patisserie woman has the same bangs, round face and the butterfly. She's the most likely to be her except for the fact that she might be a woman with a husband, or a big sisterAlso: all of their flowers are on the left side, Eclair's is on the right.Girl with drills also has a flower on her left side, but she's the only character with a flower, besides the cures, who shows up in the foreground. However her eyes are wider than Eclair'sWho knows, maybe it's like someone said and each of these girls is a part of Eclair since they all have flowers and things belonging to her, but if a fusion cure is unlikely, they all are red herrings most probably

>>285732165The analog signal had closed captioning embedded into it, so you can embed more efficiently by doing on the 4-unit side rather than the 3-unit side.If you were to remove the television's shell, or retract the overscanning, you might even be able to see the little "static noise" lines at the top or bottom.

>>285732382Lots of stuff that would be weird in the real world have been common in precure before, despite it not taking place in some alternate reality, also doing time travel just for it to be a different reality would be a waste
>Duo transformation is 110 seconds long >same length as the full Idol group henshinPlease, God, don't have this season fall to the same "2 minutes of runtime gone to save budget" curse.
So as a first timer to pretty cure, I have a question about their transformation. This time the two of them transformed together and interacted with each other during the transformation, but they each have their own version of the transformation pendant. Would they each have a different transformation sequence for transforming solo?
>>285732450Uhhhh that's what every season does
>>285731041You're overthinking it. The 6 years old will have their minds blown by the reveal. An obvious twist isn't a bad one necessarily.
>>285732450We got longer henshins in exchange for the finishers being quick instead of the whole baked animation like idol
>>285732450It's the first episode, anon. It's fine.
>>285732382I agree there's something weird going on. It's almost like we shouldn't take things at face value. Depending on how smart Jett is, it could be confirmed as soon as next episode.>>285732401Hugtto. It's also a common enough type of time travel that it's definitely fair game for even a toddler show and not particularly hard to explain. It would be more convoluted if Anna did end up further back in her own timeline, and they had to explain how the mechanics of how rewriting the past worked.
>>285732401You'd have a point if this wasn't a Maruyama season, both Maho and ST were very smartly written from a worldbuilding perspective so the little oddities in SD are definitely intentional.>>285732429Except it was Anna who found the fairies strange in 2027 while they were something normal for Mikuru. Either fairies and Precures have disappeared in the span of 28 years to the point that kids don't even know they existed or it's an alternate timeline.
>>285732367do you think the semi circles mean something?>Maybe bottom left is actually the fairyBut Shushutan has green eyes
>>285732456They're not going to transform solo
>>285732456Usually, Cures that start off as duos need to be together to transform. There's only one exception, and it was strange enough that pretty much no one saw it coming.
>duo hensin episode one (1)>boy introduced in episode two (2)why is Toei speedrunning this?
>>285732252Heat pumps and bimetallic strips are the keyt to everything.
>Fuwa can wormhole through space-time>Pochitan can time travelAny villain able to kidnap and command both fairies is invincible.
Easy explanation for this is that bad guys won and wiped out precure in Anna's timeline
>>285732488The fairies seem to be related to the precure detectives tho, so maybe it's just something that a regular person not interested in detectives would know about, mikuru is the one with abnormal knowledge
>>285732456If one of them was to transform solo, obviously the sequence would be different because they'd have to cut out all the parts where they're together. A henshin like this goes so hard into the duo cuts though, that I think that would be hard. They're not going to draw a whole new henshin bank though, too much money, even though it would be cool.Contrast that with (Idol Precure spoilers) Zukyoon & Kiss' henshin. They transform together, but there are still plenty of solo cuts for each that it was easy to cut the sequence so to show only one or the other transforming, which did happen a few times.
>>285731102>emphasised chest and flared skirtWhat do you think?>>285731100Honestly I think I liked early Idol more back then. It had great humour. But I have more faith in SD. Rather, I have faith that Toei will recognise it's led by an established writer and won't meddle with the plot as much as they must have done with Idol.
>>285732549>meddle with the plot as much as they must have done with Idol.Do you think evil toei execs are out to hurt you specifically
I'm glad this season is keeping the armpit shots, it was the best part of idol
>>285732330What is funny is that outside of /u/ (one tard really) everyone pretty much abandoned the idea of shipping Anna and her mother. It's going to be a cute mother/daughter duo which is a good idea for a Pretty Cure season, 23 years after the first one aired.
>>285732590Well, you literally can't. You'd be banned off of the discord/reddit for unsafe thoughts.
>>285732488Maho 2's time travel antics logic was consistent enough (even with a puppet director) that I'm pretty certain that SD's will also be consistent. There's always some extra leeway to suspension of disbelief that's needed for time travel stories in particular, but I think it'll be mostly fine.
>>285732526That is a possibility also. At least they won't be able to ignore it for long, they'll have to address the issue in episode 2 already.
>>285732590I wouldn't call it funny, it's quite scary to see a retard doing it not only to himself but also to other with his delusions.If anybody wants to invest any yuri coins Eclair x Arcana Shadow seems more likely, but knowing this writer there won't be any seeing they were afraid to even show anything in Maho2.
I got goosebumps.
>>285732590Real yurifags are having the time of their lives with the incest. The problem is that /u/ is pretty much the only place that lets them be public about it (in the West) whereas most other discussion places are "No fun allowed".
>>285731082What if we get another Hugtto situation and have the main villain be related with one of the cures?
>>285731215>this scene in the opening which is kind of weirdAnna's mother gifts the transformation item to her, and it is conveniently identical to the one Mikuru has in the past. This is likely because they're the literal same object. Mikuru has had it since childhood and as an adult gifted it to Anna when she knew she was about to go back. What this scene here hints at, to me, is that eventually the cures will go even further back in time to when Mikuru was still a kid. Anna is going to gift her the pendant, creating a closed loop, and her early exposure to the cures will start her fancy for detective stories, which she will eventually pass on to her daughter too.
>>285732667>Real yurifags >themJudging by /u/ thread it's basically one person.
>>285732609thought police is here
>>285732641This you?
>>285731233Remember when we thought Kaito's pendant was going to be relevant and then all it did was turn into a different shape for a few episodes with no explanation and no one addressing it?
>>285732728*Remember when we thought Kaito was going to be relevantft
>>285732654It would have been better if she actually stole it and got arrested.
>>285731839Supreme wasn't a real cure, she just called herself that to copy the others.
>>285732667This situation immediatly made me remember a manga series about an eldritch dreamscape it was yuri and it turned out one of the girls was the other's daughter through time travel shenanigans.This is fun.
>>285731254You know what would be kino? Eclair is a MMDW case and all of them turn into her.
We're never getting real yuri like Sora x Mashiro ever again.Just accept it.
>>285732728Yeah, Idol was badly written. But expecting every season to be HS/Idol tier is severely underestimating the potential of Precure.

>>285732861Adorbs!!!

you literally cannot trust cure arcana shadow.
>>285731670All according to planSD will continue the march towards ATH with a dominating performance expectedSome friction ahead but, if we break through the Heartcatch resistance at 12.68 then... See you on the moon

Mikuru will lose her memories of Anna when she goes back to the future and regain them when Anna gets back.Cue heavy crying.
>>285732932Dino season going to do crazy numbers
>>285731733Yes. Adult Uta is an egocentric narcissist brainwashed by the idol industry. Her "friends" are now her unseen composer and her influencer shill. Stepping stones to her greatness.
This episode, along with 16bit Sensation, convince me that the 90's were a mistake.
>>285732977>Mikuru will lose her memories of Anna when she goes back to the futureThat's not how time travel works
Luv Mayu
Would be funny if the price for Anna traveling back in time was knowing her mom's name
https://x.com/wakuno_lemon/status/2017830959991984526
>>285732754Its like if people in the production team were constantly fighting about him, at first he was the obvious love interest for uta, then he disappear for like 30 episodes on top of not even being that recurrent to begin with, then he returns and becomes a precure, but then no one seems to care about that and they move on without him as he go back to being a background character

>>285733003We'll get a sequel series in 10 years about how uta was forced to graduate after a dating scandal
>>285733063Would be funny if the staff all disagreed which Uta ship would win, and somehow, the Uta/Nana person was the one that managed to convince the main writer.
>>285731919>the most popular cure in years and all ot took was making her evilDown on my hands and knees praying they see this and decide to give us more evil / corrupted / dark cures. I also wonder if the idea was in any way influenced by the reactions to HS's finale.

>>285733103It adds to the drama though and everyone knows how dramatic Maho and ST were.

>>285733100They'll have to address Anna not thinking it's weird Mikuru has the same name as her mom somehow
>>285733133It's blatantly Amane 2.0
>>285733063>then he disappear for like 30 episodesHe still had small appearances.
>>285733133I think the HS ending and All Stars F are the most obvious factors. Meroron may or may not have been Toei testing the waters for how little girls would treat black antagonistic Cures (and according to staff at least, they seemed to eat it up)
Mikuru doesn't look 40 year oldMaybe she time traveled forward for 10 years and start raising the orphaned Anna
>>285733178>according to staffOne member of the staff, you mean. Not exactly a reliable source.

Did we meet before? I'm Mikuru by the way and my dream is to become a star detective"
Are the people criticizing Idol now the same ones who invested their whole year in their precious KaitoUta and was all for naught?I feel so much bitterness in their posts directed to Uta personally.Makes me wonder...
>>285733120I already knew they weren't going to do it, but I wish they at least did a friendly version of an idol scandal, doing a show about idols without even touching on that feels like what would be if wonderful never did the "dealing with the death of a beloved pet" episode
>>285733250Notice that I didn't say major appearances. He was still around but not in a major role.
>>285731919Evil Cures were a mistake. Always have been.
>>285733168Is it really weird for two people to have the same name?
>>285732697>Anna has to beat up her deadbeat dadCould be cool
>>285733191Stunning
>>285733280Idiot
>>285733286No, but a person who looks like your mom with the same name after you learn that you went back in time to 1999?As shown in the episode Anna isn't exactly retarded unlike Mikuru and pays attention to little details so she should find it weird, or a funny coincidence at least.
https://x.com/RiMOLVER/status/2017870740197163011
>>285733288Jett is not going to become evil.
>>285733305Maybe not an scandal, but I wish they at least did something about idol graduations, it feels like they even joked about that with their "Final show" which wasn't actually meant to mean it was their last show
>>285733330Remember she only learnt it was 1999 at the very end of the episode, so if she doesn't start putting the pieces together next episode, that's when you can start saying something else is going on.
>>285733338Jett is so much worse than Tsubasa it's unreal.
>>285732464Not true. Group transformations are typically one minute long or so. Look at ST specifically. You have the interwoven group henshins and then the final 'we are' group pose. Idol was a specific case where instead of everyone just saying their names, after the full group henshin they also added each individual cure presenting herself before the big group shot. They artificially added an extra 50 seconds that other seasons avoid.
https://x.com/RbqitFSsr439200/status/2017749285081911418
>>285733330>but a person who looks like your momThat clearly didn't register when the two met because Anna didn't know she was in the past, she only learned about that at the end.
Pretty cool how SD starts in the future.

>>285733338Correct! Evil Jett, however...
Good thing I watched the first movie recently so I can appreciate the Back to the Future memes.>>285733269I do personally feel that Idol has pretty severe issues, but I ended up loving the season all the same. Kaito being hetbait is more funny than anything, and I'd argue that him not getting with Uta was telegraphed as early as episode 13. Though, I expected the reason to be a past female love he was obsessed about, not a homie.
Cute mom that may or may not be a cure.>>285733448I'm not sure but the 24th is on a Sunday next year.

>>285732474There's also the curious detail that Pochitan is described as a fairy of time and space on the website, instead of only being a time fairy.The time travel itself is starting to look more and more like a red herring.
Nodoka's rival.
>>285732791I actually just wanted to bring the pendant up to confirm we all saw it was a different shape for a while and I'm not just mentally insane.

>>285733063Not really? The staff clearly liked him going by the interviews (and tweets). The problem was how they didn't integrate him into the main plot/cast.
If the SDs are stuck in 1999, how will the Idols crossover with them in the movie?

>download serenae subs>"it's fanfic!!!">watch crunchyroll subs>"they are ignoring the nuances!!!"If precure had a live dub I'd watch it just to spite these posters
Feels like everyone is setting themselves up for disappointment with how wildly you're all speculating about the lore.
>>285733640Nah, just last season, the idol season of all things, we had an ikemen sing a song everyone assumed was romantic only to end up platonic yearning for his ex-best friend. Red herrings are fair game again, especially for the detective season.
>>285733538The popularity contest will be impossible to win for Anna.>Arcana Shadow the dark beauty antagonist Cure (wtf)>Jet-senpai the perfect shota inventor>Niji the fabulous looking Phantom Thief throwing red roses straight to your heart>Mikuru the Cure mom and true MC of 1999

>>285734044Is it possible she's a Pixy Misa type, where her civilian form is innocent and unaware of the evil things her transformed side is up to?
>>285733994I thought it was funny some anons thought that Cure Arcana Shadow dancing with the other Cures in the ed that was shown early was proof of her being a good guy pretty quickly, only for the actual op to show her blasting the shit out of Answer and Mystique. I think she'll first transform about the time her toy officially releases (mid April, near the end of cour 1) and she'll be an enemy until the halfway point or maybe as late as the 3/5ths point right before the group attack toy is released.
>>285734091probably her sister, not teacher
>a Pixy Misa type
>>285733269"Idol went to shit in the second half" poster here, it's actually the opposite. I don't mind Kaito Uta, really, but I do mind that it was paced really poorly, but most importantly one of the earliest tells the season was falling apart for me was when they completely erased Uta's attraction to Zukyoon. She was salivating at the mere thought of her and then it just stopped being a thing.
>>285734196Aww, did the mention of a non-Cure show hurt you?

Why does Japan add "tto" to things?
>Precure is not gonna have mother/daughter yuri you retard!Just like it wasn't gonna have pet/owner yuri right?
>>285734283Why?
>>285734387It's a conan reference.
>>285733524All "time travel" is space travel too if you don't want your ass to end up in the vacuum of space. The Earth ain't sitting still.
>>285734272I can understand Anna not realizing in episode 1 since she didn't realize she was in 1999 until the end. If Anna doesn't think something's up by the end of the intro arc though, then I suspect the Mother's day episode will have a pretty big twist that prevents her from realizing her mom and Mikuru are the same person (or somehow suggests they really are two seperate people).
>>285734360So by eyes color alone who is Anna's father?
>>285731674Pacts were like the first mahou shoujo transformation toy of all time, and they're always popular, that's why they repeat them from time to time. It's an evergreen design.

>>285734527While I don't love the designs on their own, I think it fits well with the artstyle of the show, the vibe of those 2000s seasons is kinda comfy.
>>285734519He's also the ST guy though. First episode packed in a lot (and the general did allude to Arcana Shadow), so I can forgive no general meeting yet. If we don't get one by the third episode though, it might be over...
>>285732787>Sora x MashiroDestroyed by Mashiro x Battamonda KINO
>>285734553Mikuru's time at least. For some reason Anna doesn't know of their existence.
>>285734487So, they both will end up with boyfriends after timeskip?Ouch
>>285734273How come the cgi in idol precure looked so shitty compared to this?
>>285734553Apparently Ecclair already exists
>>285734589Can you be more sad and pathetic.
>>285734273It's actually pretty funny watching Toei get better and better at 3DCG.
>>285734519Maho was trying to have generals like the FW second half and Max Heart, more stoic monstrous generals. ST had better ones and it seems like SD could be more inclined to ST in this aspect as well.
If she's her mom, then why isn't her name Akechi
>>285734630Yeah, I could be a Sora x Mashiro shipper.
>>285734602It looked fine.Cease your yapping already.

>>285733790I could probably do subbing but I've never tried really, but goddamn people like this make me glad I don't. Not just here but across all of /a/. you can't translate anything without being shit on constantly no matter what decisions you make, and then in the same breath they complain that fansubs are dead.

Baby season. The fairy's design is growing on me.
>>285734794
>>285734821I think Pochitan looks better with the pacifier. I can't explain why.
>>285734672That's happy to be one.
Mission failed, for now.
Saw a post comparing Meitantei and Hirogaru’s season opening episode and it made me horny for Sora.
>>285734269Dropped so hard I forgot that was a thing, lol.
Reminds me of how smug Yui was.
>>285734692Time to use AI subs. Those Fresh subs aren't gonna get better over time.
>>285730605oh my god i thought it was Stoleass in the OPStoleass is my demon mentor by the waythat's about all, peace out
>>285732771The way I saw All Stars F, is that "Cure Supreme" is the white version, meanwhile the black version is just "Supreme" and that's why she was allowed to fight other Cures, just a semantics thing.I guess they're doing this to a lesser extent in SD by calling her "Arcana Shadow" and they'll probably take out the Shadow later.
>>285734862Is this organism a she or a he?
>>285733538>>285733724As a 90s kid I'm going all in on Anna. That is my answer!

>>285735069We had "light VS darkness" just last season bro
>>285734567You mean this?
I like how she has a notebook.
>>285735074I loved how the suspects all got a name and occupation card like a mystery drama.
>>285734979I thought it wasn't, because not paying in the shop because of "fairy" is fucked up and can land kid in a lot of troubles
>>285735136Imagine making a baby with Mikuru!
>>285735106Until they forgot.
>>285734044Agreed. That lying human holding her hostage on the other hand...
Anna and Mikuru bonding scenes always feels extra cute because of the lurking twist.The context of them being mom and daughter but they just don't know it yet is wholesome.
>>285735136Very erotic... Anna could break somebody's pelvis with that excitement
>season with two PinksInteresting.
>>285735136>Anna introduces twerking to 90s kids
>>285735136Mikuru is suspiciously good at shaking her ass. She must have practiced a lot in her room.

>>285735230Retard
>>285735160I see what they're doing, but I personally never got used to taking notes on my phone, so it just seems normal to me.
>>285735230I too like Hugtto.
>>285735160Similar to the notebook in the movie...
>>285735283>>285735293>>285735371I mean that they both have Pink personalities.
Interesting bit of info, Mikuru was helped by a star detective in the past so that's why she wants to be one. You don't think they are going to do more time travel, do you?
Mikuru is funny but Anna is kind of bland
>>285735222>The context of them being mom and daughter but they just don't know it yet is wholesome.It's a very good idea for a Precure season.Mom and daughter duo, but with a twist that make them be the same age.The first thing Mikuru did is buy her future daughter some shoes.
>>285735264
>>285735351>I see what they're doingNo you don't. She's a detective, it's part of the trope, not a 90s reference
>>285734527
>>285735434I like how Anna is the competent detective and Mikuru is the retard
>>285735448God damn that daughter is hot.
>>285735433>Mikuru was helped by a star detective in the pastEcclair.
>>285732861
>>285735408Thats even more retarded
>>285735136Mikuru does it best!
>>285735433She was probably helped by Cure Eclair in the past. Or maybe it'll be Cure Arcana, and Cure Arcana Shadow will use that to her advantage
>>285735497>Mikuru does it best!That's how she made Anna on bed.
>>285735408Thats even more related
>>285735497That's why she ended up pregnant...

Cute eyecatch.>>285735458Thanks. Was that the one that showed them thinking what their weddings would be like?>>285735487Isn't her name spelled Eclair?
>>285735448A lot of moms watch Precure with their daughter so they have their perfect self-inserts to enjoy the story.
Reposting hints for Eclair's true identity in the OP:Eclair's flower highlight is on the RIGHT sideMost prospective candidates are DNQ because their highlight is on the LEFT side.The only girl who has her flower highlight on the RIGHT side is the blonde gyaru you see for a few seconds.
>>285735434Just like Maho
>>285735592>eyecatch isn't just a toy shillSovl
>>285735613I got a feeling she was a cure the instant she showed up on the screen.

>>285735625When was the last time cures got turned into marketable water bottles?
>>285735654And it's not screaming product names at me.
>>285735351They don’t have phones?
>>285735620And ST. That's Murayama for ya.
>>285735691I love white women
>>285735720Healin' Good.
>>285735691>Laura is Laura
>>285735613I could see this. Eclair having a gyaru-esque personality is strangely fitting for her design, and gyaru/chuuni is a really, really funny yuri pairing.
>>285734821there better be a REALLY GOOD reason as to why Kyubey 2.0 literally dragged Anna to the past without explaining.and yeah, Pochitan said she wasn't done explaining Anna the deal, but she could have waited before throwing herself at the pendant.
Does that count as The Jump?>>285735779I think it was a misfire due to her not finishing explaining things yet.
>>285735779She literally wanted to explain more but seems like the device just spontaneously activated so it was too late.
>>285735691lol
>>285735779Idiot
Thanks tl.
>>285735654>>285735727Soulless
>>285735774It also fits with the theory that Eclair was who inspired Mikuru, the dork unknowingly getting inspired by the stacy could be very funny. But that also sounds like a cute pairing. Sorry, anon who hoped SD would be more straightforward with its ships...
>>285732776Wakusei Closet?
>>285735691Iroha always struck me as more of a HaileyMary fits a granny like Mayu
>>285735779>but she could have waited before throwing herself at the pendant.That seems like an arbritary thing to say, Pochitan seems to have a natural excitable personality, so an accident was bound to happen.
>>285735779>why Kyubey 2.0 literally dragged Anna to the pastShe never said it was pastMore likely she came to invite her to the fucking birthday party at detective agencyHow retarded can you possible be, if you can't even follow show for 5 years old girls
>>285735691Now come up with Glitter names for all of them.
Thanks again, tl.
>>285735879>Eclair was Anna's real fatherNo, damn it, the last thing we need is another crackship yuri season. Ah well, might as well have fun with this wild ride. Mother/daughter incest is already a vague possibility
>>285735861I watched crunchysubs so i didn't know that. But I've seen enough conan to know the pun for the Hannindas
>>285734406And it did
I like him so far, he's showy.
>>285735907>More likely she came to invite her to the fucking birthday party at detective agency
>>285735982Obvious fan service for female big friends. Murayama was polishing his craft in ikemen with Maho 2 for this moment.
>>285735982>Narcisu 2.0 and Anna's future father
KimiPre was turning me into an armpitfag and I'm not getting a break here.
Remember that a toy shill anime from over a decade ago had a magical gender bending plot twist therefore it's fair game for PreCure.

This might be one of the best transformations in Precure history.
>>285736188I haven't really ranked them, but it's definitely high tier. The OST being perfect helps a lot
>>285736188The henshin theme alone is worth the price of admission.
Damn, this is cute.
>>285736208*blushes*
>>285736213>>285736188What the fuck are you talking about?It's too long for how slow and low energy it is.
Oh and apparently they know they are cute.>>285736213>>285736221The music sounds great.
>>285736108It isn't my fault that they were like this.
>>285736182Cure Nightmare will have some company.
>>285736253It's the clock taking up too much time.
>>285736338I like the clock because you can hear the seconds ticking away before their fated farewell
She's so cute.>>285736253It's long but I like it.
>>285736253It's got the vibes of classic spy and detective movies, especially with the trumpets and swingy sections.
>anti-het C H A D
Patiently waiting for 40 year old Arcana Aunt
Oh, so star detectives are Precure.
>there will be timeskip in final episode for all cures except of AnnaI understand why, but kinda sucks leaving her like that
Nice, foreshadowing.
>>285736423Yes. The Meitantei (lit. Famous Detective) Precure are like the "Legendary Idols" Idol Precure where they have a title aside from being Precure
>>285735882Sounds about right. Maybe I should re-read it.
>>285736253>low energyLmaoTell us what you consider high energy transformations then you ADHD autistic ridden child.
Sorry but she's so fucking cute. It's going to hard to pick a favorite this year.>>285736465I see.
>>285736447>Anna will stay in the past and have sex with her mother and move in once her younger self has left
>>285736456Does it really count as foreshadowing if it shows Arcana Shadow with the villains in the OP and then with the Cures in the ED 2?
>>285736502NTA but Cure Connect was just last season
An out of stock footage finisher? That's unprecure.
>>285736213Milky is number 1.
>>285736447Anna is a support character, sent to 1999 to assist Cure Mystique.
Cool, he did the smoke getaway.
I rewatched the new season with my friend and he says that it's already off to a better start than Idol. This is his second Precure season but he's still behind on Idol, I think he fell off around the mid-30s when it was really slow. Gonna have to catch him up soon
>>285736253It's definitely way too long, honestly I wouldn't even put it in the top 10 of reiwa henshins.We just had ZukyuunKiss last season and that was a great dual henshin that didn't feel like it dragged its feet.
>>285736535>I always thought I looked a little too similar to my 2nd momAnna, probably
A happy resolution to the case.
>>285736640Show some classics to him rather than just [current season]
>>285736644>It's definitely way too longIt's ok for a first episode since the animation is brand new for the viewer, but it's going to get annoying very fast.And no that's not the case with all precure henshin scenes.
That's why the trees looked like that.
>>285736683I wonder if it was a coincidence or she still rigged the throw in her favor.Honoring the promise even though she didn't need to would be something funny to think about.
>>285736683I actually fully expected bride to throw it directly to her, even after it was revealed that she never asked for it.Glad screenwriter having same thought
>>285736570Probably an episode 1 thing, though I wouldn't be against swapping out the background and monster with the Cures and explosion being the bank.>>285736626Committing way harder to the phantom thief aesthetic than the Bundoru did, I see.>>285736716Saves them time on composing an extended version for the full group henshin, at least.
>>285736644I liked Zukyuun-Kiss but this one this more with the dual aspect.
>>285736737Anna has 5 months to stop 9/11
Can't wait for 4 minute henshins every episode after the 2nd cour
>>285736686I still have quite a few seasons to watch myself first. We'll get there eventually but it's a lot to coordinate. I did show him the first episode of Futari Wa and he did find it interesting that Precure started with only two girls for the season, as well as all the Precure-isms that are still around
>>285736716The good thing about the long henshin was that the battle itself had very little stock footage, unlike Idol for example where pretty much every fight was stock footage spam.
>>285736786Anon I don't think you're a good detective.
The ancient past of 1999...>>285736739It's kind of hard to rig it in the first place.
>>285736644>>285736766Personally I do love a transformation that "drags its feet" haha..
>>285736786Nobody except burgers care about that, Anna probably doesn't even know it happened.
>>285736786Anon...
>>285736819Hope springs eternal that they'll have a duo season again and this time screentime will be distributed evenly.
That was an amazing first episode. It was so packed with stuff and it's done a a good job of setting the mood for the season. The case was fun too.
>>285736871>screentime will be distributed evenly.pffffffffttttttt haha
>>285734811>weThere's a few retards here that love trolling and there's no bullying aside from that, don't make it seem like everyone's involved in it. I really appreciate all the drawfags and TL anons.>>285734692It depends on where you go I guess, I've translated a few things before without being shat on. Maybe I just never translated enough to receive hate.
>>285736819Show him some crossover movies like DX3 or All Stars F and let him be in awe at the insanity.
The named the Legend Idol Kaito-san just like the new ikemen villain because he stole Uta's heart
>>285736786>trying to stop an inside job
>>285736887I don't think there will be a case every episode, but the first episode having one makes me think that it'll happen more frequently than I expected (like maybe 1/3 to 1/2 of the episodes)
>Getting into a het relationship and getting impregnated only so you can give birth to your true lover
>>285736887>Villains don't hang out together>Fight is too shortIt's like you already forgot why you praised first episode of idol
>>285736821I can tolerate it if they can switch up dialogue for the henshin. There's plenty of opportunities for that.
>>285736917Those have a lot more payoff when you're familiar with the seasons involved. I think once he finishes Idol, Wonderful, and Hirogaru Sky the new Idol movie would be a good one to show first
>>285736893I remember FW, back when screentime was perfectly distributed
>>285736935Stop that. Mikuru loving Anna a little too much doesn't mean she can't love her husband too.
>>285736821>the battle itself had very little stock footageFor the first episode yes.Jett-senpai will give them the Mirror Loupe and the finisher stock footage will debut then.
Bedbreaking mother daughter sex
>>285736786They'll say they deserve after the Fatman bomb
>>285736914>subsThat reminds me of that one memesub for the kirakira all stars movie that got a lot of hate because people expected them to be accurate. I found the whole deal incredibly hilarious
>>285736958I'd recommend against watching Wonderful because the Idol movie does a better job of addressing the fact Komugi is NOT going to get old with Iroha in 2 minutes than Wonderful does in over 20 hours.
>>285736935I wonder why Anna's dad seems strangely nonexistent. She doesn't even bring up the possibility that the pendant that mysteriously disappeared might have been from her dad instead from her mom.
>>285736969You clearly don't remember FW then
>>285736958Don't show him Wonderful if you don't want him to drop Precure permanently, I don't think a tree hugger season is a good watch with the bros.Honestly while it's true that you can enjoy more layers of a crossover when you know the media, there's also a different appeal in being a newfag and seeing all those crazy designs and action all at once, I showed my friend All Stars F and he loved it, it was the only Precure media I ever showed him but it's proof that it can still be enjoyable.
>>285735074give us a hachiroku, toei
>>285737037*mysteriously appeared
>>285737047Wonderful is one of the better written and directed seasons.
Nice ED. There's some strange device in the upper right corner here though.>>285736933Yeah, I don't expect one every episode but it should still be fun.>>285736942I've never cared for long fights. The Cures spending time together is more important to me.
>>285737007Jett gets to do THAT with these two?! Lucky!
>>285737037It's directly related to why she's clueless about the existence of fairies in 2027. That's right, Jett-senpai sacrificed himself for the sake of yuri but his wife and daughter refuse to let him be such an unrepentant yurifag.
>>285737082Ah, it must be that ancient artifact from the distant past: a cassette tape
>>285737031>over 20 hoursNo PreCure season is that long unless you count intros.
>>285737093Who?
>>285737093Uh, don't look at the ending. Poor Jett's the one who'll get his spine snapped...
>>285736887It was really nice that they brought back generals in the op, I thought that was gone for good along with villains directly fighting the cures
>>285737078WP is more of a show to enjoy by yourself, if you're going to watch with the bros you need at least generals before episode fucking 29.Precure has a balance of cuteness and chuuni action, WP leans too heavily towards cuteness with the Cures not being able to punch MotW.
>>285737135Mikuru's husband.
That's what I want to know. I've never heard of that before.

>>285737159In fairness garugaru were literally animals. Beefed up and slightly tougher but nothing like normal enemies that are really tough and keep the individual inside safe. They have no real protection from punches like, say, Kyuutaro gets a season later. Before the wonderfuls themselves the biggest problem were the monsters themselves being an insanely edgy premise that leaned close to promoting animal cruelty.
>>285737183Hetfags must be grinding their teeth...
>>285737183It's so adorable.>>285737306Why? It's really cute.
>>285737306It's been really funny to see them humiliated these past couple of weeks
>>285737256I have a lot of precure strange devices :)
>>285737186I don't skip them but they're not part of the plot, therefore not to be counted when discussing whether a show addresses something or not.
>>285737368Damn, nice
>>285737306>>285737338Can't help but notice the post times.

>>285737392What does this mean? We must investigate!
>>285737401wahehehe...
After the first episode I think we can all agree that Anna is the top of the relationship. Mikuru is more energetic but she's an insecure clumsy dork, while Anna feels naturally assertive. Mikuru is also shorter and with lighter skin, making her more feminine. And frankly a daughter topping her mom is much much hotter than the opposite.
>>285737392What did you notice?
>>285737218>>285737267Stop being dumb
>>285737368This makes me want to take out my Cardcaptor Sakura VHSs but they're in storage ):

>>285737736Later it will really create a big mess. I'll hopefully be moving soon maybe I'll do it then
>>285737837That's a cover from a game.It has "Nintendo DS" written in it.
>>285737805Sadly, I don't have a Battamona summon bank webm on hand, just one of all 4 Undergu generals.
>>285737867Same thing
>>285737871>Battamona
>>285737778You literally just nitpick all the regular popular titles that have consistent threads in the board.It's as generic of a list as seeing two people drinking coffee and assuming they’re the same person.
>>285737826Who?
>>285737919Yeah I'm sure you believe that unironically.
>>285737966Yep

>>285737401Okay sell me on it, I think I've seen the meme but is it actually a good game?
>>285737998If you got caught in crossfires by a schizo with a terrible aim, then you would start to complain as well.
>had a good thread with actual discussions, especially compared to livewatch one>rorafag decided to ruin it at the end
>>285737922You won
I won by watching Conan.
>>285737405Cures tend to stick to their beliefs.
>precure mentionedhe's here...
>>285738139Fuck, HOW did you find me...
>>285738083I'm aware
>>285738032Yes it's genuinely fun, the cases the punchy and have charismatic characters, you have two phases: The ones where you investigate and the trials, in the trials you have to theorize with the clues and testimonies to solve the mystery.Play the first case of the first game and you'll be hooked already. The DS version and "Trilogy" port are both valid.
>>285738099You won
>>285737430It's JapaneseHonestly sometimes it feels like they do this crap on purpose
>>285738184*the cases are punchy
>>285738251>Check these digits
What does everyone think about Liko 2.0
>>285738032>think I've seen the memeThe objection? It's everywhere often because it's a legit great game with a great story.
