There are still so many questions to ask...Luluka walking away in this ED felt like an important symbolic visual message, and the latest episode really answered one big question a lot of people had from the start.
So who's going to be the 4th Cure to join the team?
How was the episode?
>>289641132They're probably gonna solve the Eclair Makoto Jewel timebomb problem by splitting its current power between Kurea and Luluka and she will turn into Luluka Blanca.
>>289641164I'm waiting for an edit of this showing her holding panties.It WILL happen!
>every single cure in Meitantei is physically weak, too reliant on gadgets and shields, or minmaxed with low staminaThese girls are in serious need of a training arc.

>>289641426The gradient..like Luluka has. But I'm pretty sure this isn't her
>>289641295She can't really be intimidating cause she's a real cute anime girl lol. Exactly what happened with Fate
>>289641426That's Answer's hair.

>>289641620Delayed for at least another 10 episodes.
>>289641628>activates eye powers>is able to dodge things with a much higher accuracyThis is disgustingly accurate...
>>289641410Welcome to Precure
>>289641628The meme really has Sasuke warped in that same perspective though
>>289641531Movie arcana shadow could be a clone like Dark Sky in the HS Kanshansai.
>>289641628I had two anime immediately come to mind when I saw that, the sharingan of course but also pic related
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MEGDe0HzLuUhttps://www.asahi.co.jp/tvprogram/detail.html?id=75827: I Became a DetectiveScript: Satou Dai / SB: Nakashima Yutaka / ED: Iwai Takao>Having regained her memories, Kurea discloses to Anna and friends that she was never a detective herself. While still reeling from this reveal, the owner of a restaurant arrives to request that they search for one of his cooks.I've known this since HaCha, but it still throws me off that cook is pronounced コック. Did a double take when I heard "Cock-san" in the preview.
>>289640666It is.
>>289641628lol
>>289641850so she's a fraud
>>289641901It just means the detective of the pair was Luluka.
>>289641850>Script: Satou DaiOh snap. Didn't expect him getting involved
>>289641850> Cock-san>the owner of a restaurant arrives to request that they search for one of his cocks.Lewd
>>289641935He wrote 22 too. I remember thinking how well that episode was set up and flowed.
>>289641935He did episode 22 of the same season
>>289641164All Hail Shadow!
>>289641210If Toei is ever questioned about it, they'll just be all "oh, it's a scrunchie, duh!"Even though anyone who is an 1990s/early 2000s otaku will know immediately that it's a panties referenceIt literally cannot be interpreted any other way
Why does Eclair have a ballet theme when Kurea hasn't done shit with ballet?
>>289641932>the detective of the detective pair was Luluka
>>289641426Answer's movie only super mode.
I saw that Meitantei was approaching the half and started watching it last week.As someone with zero bias since I wasn't browsing this thread to see any of the complaints and praise, this was genuinely an enjoyable time, I think this is easily one of the top 1 or top 2 seasons of the 2020s, and on par with the 2010s seasons (which imo was the best Precure era).I think that I can praise the show for is how it has such a clear vision and you have stuff to look forward to, dunno how it felt watching weekly but at least in a binge there's a surprising number of elements that roll over from previous episodes to later episodes. Again it's nothing "new" but it has been one of the weaker aspects in the 2020s seasons since it feels like they rely more on Slice of Life than older seasons did (Kimi to Idol had a lot of this).
>>289642015can you provide an example?
>>289641760That's not the same as Eclair's and Sasuke fish eye lens perspective though.
>>289642039I think you're full of shit, they spun their wheels for like 10 episodes while we had to wait for the characters to actually start on the Eclair mystery. We're halfway through the show and we barely know shit about most of the characters
They still need to nail Arcana Shadow's arc, the entire show still hinges on her.
>>289642103Pretty much this, her story arc is the only thing I really give a shit about in this show at this point.
thank you eclair candidates!
>>289642058It's an extremely common anime trope, anon.
>>289642089Again I'm not taking into account the weekly experience, I'm sure some parts are slow but as a bingewatch it's both quick and each episode had something going for it in the bigger picture, even if small.Precure as a whole is a franchise about spinning the wheels, but I can say that this was a better time than binging WP or Idol (which felt more random in nature, at least big chunks of the show).
YEEEEEEAAAAAAH TEDDY BEAR
>pretty much everyone guessed that Usonoir would no longer be the main boss>a lot of people guessed that a major conflict for the next few episodes would be Luluka and Kurea drama>Pretty much no one guessed that Luluka would seize power and become the new main bossKek, /pc/ got its ass kicked by a toddler show. I knew SD would catch people off guard somehow.
Lily status?
feet...
>>289642268Dead on account of Luluka being too menhera. Nothing a little punching can't fix though
>>289642274footfags won bigly
So is she still under control of something or what? It's such bad storytelling by Toei. Literally takes Toei all of 10 seconds to explain why Luluka is like this but instead they keep it stupidly vague for no reason.
So will Kurea not work at the fucking bakery anymore or something? Was the bakery not real even? Was it an imaginary place she made up with her amnesiac cure powers? I assume she made Anna's cake in 2027 though.
>>289642388Imagine being too impatient to watch a show for Japanese toddlers.
>>289641628hahahahaha
>>289642347>>289642405anon pls
>>289642405>>289642441So this is Eclairs amnesia powers
toei philippines putting a lot of effort for this ep
Kurea's transformation is lewd, somehow even lewder than Luluka's
>>289642464no wonder the faces looked so off the whole time
>>289642388>but instead they keep it stupidly vague for no reason.She learned from the best
Is Kurea straight?
>>289642551Yes. She will have a husband with at least two kids, one of which is Anna's friend and she didnt know Kurea was her mom because of the last name change. Anna's birthday party will NOT be just her and a gang of 40+ year old women
>"her first case"This implies that despite living at the Pretty Cure Detective Agency office, and despite having the established genius detective Luluka as her partner, Kurea has in fact never actually done any detective work.
>>289642551As a rainbow.
>>289642628do enjoy loudly announcing that you don't watch this show?
>>289642555N-master does it again!
Bros.......... I don't think Luluka and Kurea will get Mayu's seal of cute and canon.....
>>289642659Is this English?
>>289642628And she wasn't a precure either. When she stopped Usonoir and lost her memories, it was the first time she transformed. That's why Luluka had said that was the only time she saw Cure Eclair.
is Luluka from the future?
>>289642705yeah. you didn't know?
>reusing Skyland imagery
>>289642705Something like that.
>>289642725do you have a spam quota that you have to fill or are you just this much of a faggot?
This episode had so much style, like that scene where Luluka is listing Usonoir's 3 mistakes and the shadows start turning off 1 by 1.
>>289642388>Detective Precure>awaaa why aren't they revealing all the secrets already??
They should cast Yoshitake Chihaya as a cure
What is Usonoir supposed to do now?Just be butthurt fairy for the rest of the show?
>>289642533Some anons here would go insane watching Kamen Rider, especially Heisei stuff.
>>289642751Yes lets dump it in the last episode
>>289642725HS was three whole years ago, anon. Little girls have become adults by now and are in college. Cut Toei some slack.
Luluka x Kurea status?
>>289642294But toxic/doomed yuri is the current meta.
>>289642725>>289642799
>>289642779Yeah, Arcana Shadow straight up said he was never supposed to be the Great King of the prophecy.
>>289642800Bottom
>>289642800
>>289642294>Dead on account of Luluka being too menheraBro never read yuri. That's actually a buff.
>>289642833>Usonoir is not the king of the prophesy>Luluka says if they don't destroy Eclair's makoto jewel, they won't have a future.Is Kurea the true dark king? Or maybe the true dark king needs Kurea's makoto jewel so if they destroy the jewel, they save the world before the real king has a chance to show up.
kaze ttetori ttewatashi yori jiyuu kana
>>289642779He could become the Pikario of the show (minus people crying about him deserving to become a Cure).
>>289642779She was so badass in this scene. Reminded me of good old white devil.
>>289642951>He could become (completely unrelated thing)
>>289642955>>289642936>>289642799>>289641860>muh references
>>289641234I'm more concerned about Jett possibly getting possessed by the armor, not becoming a Precure.>>289641137Last episode gave a lot of scenes ti a scared girl who was hanging out with the actress. Maybe she stops being scared and becomes a Cure at some point?
>>289642979Correct. Toei is creatively bankrupt. Creativity doesn't procure profit. Stealing from other IPs and remixing what works into a product to maximize profits is what Toei is doing now. Creativity means nothing if it doesn't sell.
>>289642983>Maybe she stops being scared and becomes a Cure at some point?is this your first season
>>289642973Both were a villain that then "became" a supporting fairy for the rest of the show.Since Usonoir went so deep in the deep end, I assume he could retain a tsundere attitude as well.
I don't like how Luluka and Kurea's basic female friendship is looking like atm
No one cares about HS
>>289643042Girlboss <3
>>289643025did you miss the part where's he's still an evil little shit?
>>289642693Who will Mayu ship over now?
>>289642250Most people wouldn't expect a Precure taking over for a villain. Its a pretty good twist, especially when some of the more recent seasons were too linear.
>my houhai are watching>i'll show off a little
>>289643069t-b-h I didn't watch the livestream, just scrolled screenshots.
>>289643113I hope a car hits you
>>289643089>Second transformationSo she basically had 0 contribution til this point
>>289643066>>289643089>flesh fang
>>289642388I don't think its vague. Writers established that Luluka didn't want her friend to become a Precure again or regain her memories for some reason, everyone underestimated the lengths she's willing to go to achieve this.
>>289642533you do know that in 1999, NOX/Kensei Odaka would be around 5 years old, right?if anything, Luluka was the one teaching him the ways of vagueposting!>Luluka: Hmm? when you want to keep a secret from someone, you always dodge the question, and answer instead with something like 'Only the heart knows (Kokoro no Misoshiru)'>Young NOX: Mi-Miso soup (MisoSHIru)?>Onomatopeia: 5 years old
>>289641112Eclair is the Great King and Luluka is trying to stop it.
Everyone was expecting Luluka to join the main characters and a new big bad to debut last week, but now everyone is acting like totally knew Luluka was gonna become the new leader of the Phantom Thieves until the group finisher debuts at least.
>>289643089Imagine the friction
>>289643042i hope it leads to much fanart and memes
>>289642705I don't think so. We'll probably need subs to know.
>>289643153Anyone who was following the spoilers understood she wouldn't join right away.
>>289643135In a way it's starting to feel a bit like Homura in Madoka, isn't? Especially if she turns out to be a time traveler as well.Luluka is willing to go so far, yet she clearly shows to be fond of Kurea.
>>289643135>Writers established that Luluka didn't want her friend to become a PrecureShe's not the doing it for that reason though. She's trying to destroy Eclair's makoto jewel to save the world. Or at least that's what she said and we've no reason to doubt her.
>>289642705I think she just knows a prophecy that the others don´t.
>>289642701Honestly that feels like a twist that we should've seen coming. It just explains so many little things so neatly.
>>289643194>Especially if she turns out to be a time traveler as well.Do you ask chatgpt for summaries of this show or what
>>289643010Nope, but this a Detective themed Precure and red herring are a thing.
Lily... lost?
>>289643236Yes. Instead of telling Kurea that her Makoto jewel is the spawn of Satan and will destroy the world, she instead went full Menhera.
Why do people think Luluka has to be a time traveler? Did everyone forgot the story's premise? Mashutan's whole thing? She doesn't need to come from the future to know something bad will happen.
>>289643286>Why do people think Luluka has to be a time traveler?They don't actually watch the show
Will Mashutan enter no fun allowed modeI'll miss you little fox
>>289643286Everyone is a time traveler. That's the new theory.
>>289643242
>>289641850>Kurea discloses to Anna and friends that she was never a detective herselfI told you all that she was dumb.

>>289643286I don't watch the show I read posts and screencaps here and deduce the story from there
>>289643153Most people figured she wouldn't join, but I'm pretty sure no one even entertained the idea of her being the main boss for the next few episodes
>>289643194True, there are similarities.I feel like the explanation of why some characters are time traveling will make or break the season.>>289643212I mean before this episode, it seemed like she didn't want Kurea to become a Precure again to protect her. We know her endgame is to destroy the jewel.Honestly, her actions this episode are a decent reason to doubt her.
>>289641638Why arent Luluka and Kurea making out?
>>289643373>why some characters are time travelingthere's only Anna and Pochitan you moron
>>289643374Why would friends make out?
>$18 for a toy that might cost $3 in the USSasuga Japan
>>289643400You mean $30 in the US. You havent been in a US toy aisle it seems these days lately
How many adult cures do we have now?
>>289641860
>>289643400>Top of Lily FragranceDon't buy this for your daughter if you want have grandchildren one day.
>>289643420Why even try to lie like the gaslighter you are when everything you say is easily disproved?Moron.
>>289643460But imagine all the cute girls she could seduce
>>289643473What matters isn't really the fragrance, it's the toy bottle.
>>289643473And to follow up: You can get SIX perfume bottles for HALF the price Toei is charging for one.Unless Toei is filling its Cure Eclair fume bottle with scents of actual lillies and VAs bath water, there is absolutely no reason to be charging that much for that Chinese-produced product.
>>289643508>Unless Toei is filling its Cure Eclair fume bottle with scents of actual lilliesit's called top of lilythere has to be top quality lillies in ittoei would lie would they??
>>289643491Even with the toy bottle it shouldn't cost as more than a beyblade.
>>289641628heh
Who was the animator for Eclair's transformation?
Anon while watching his first season of Precure, and after they've watched everything.
I hope they show up again. I was so happy to see Rei and Eliza.
Precious Shushutan
>>289643666this is so fucking funny I don't know why
>>289643374Luluka hates Kurea
>>289643374This was after they were done making out
>>289643670>jpg_orig.jpg
Cat girl is a nice girl.
Shiruku.sama is my favorite of the Eclair candidates, hope she will show up again.
>>289643234
>>289643843she's too popular as she is i guess
>>289643775Yes. You add :orig to the end of the url to get the full size pic. This is what you get when you don't.
>>289643866Imagine the sweaty wrist
>>289643670Why is Rei looking at me with the sex eyes
>>289643866yes. this WILL be merch
>>289643892
I want to ask Shushutan how babies are made.
Jett-senpai!
>Shushutan, the fairy of vagueposts
Stellar looking episode. I love that Arcana Shadow is still an antagonist. Props to Toei, it has been a very interesting series.
>>289643571So nobody knows?
Arcana Shadow in the darkEclair in the lightThis is the last time they spoke as friends
Yes yes you are a time traveler, who cares.>>289643981Vagueposting is an art, deshu.
>>289644002This reads like an advertisement.
You guys are not ready to see Mashutan become new boss after Luluka went down
>>289641210IT HAS BEEN TWO HOURSWHERE IS IT JAPAN
Never liked how arrogant she is. She deserves the suffering desu.
>>289644063Villains need a bit of chuuni arrogance.
>>289644046I was born ready
Luluka is a bad woman
Is Eclair the one prophesied to destroy the world?
>>289644010Sorry I didn't see your post. Shinpei Sawa I think.
So what? Kurea is the gay one and now Luluka is straight? This is nonsense.
>>289644046>foolish girl. I am fond of you but in the end I just wanted my families book back to how the world!
>>289644116Luluka is the one getting "purified". Guess who is the one in the prophecy?
Damn, I just realized that this flashback was before Kurea became precure. Because Top of Lily currently is her transformation item and she clearly wasn't aware of this therm/fragrance at the time. But they mention fairies and stuff. Suspicious.
>>289644125please stop using google translate
>>289643922this is merch already.the shushutan plushie actually has that tail grab gimmick.
>>289644139>Guess who is the one in the prophecy?I already said Eclair.
Kurea fans..... won.
>>289644146>she clearly wasn't aware of this therm/fragrance at the timeLuluka literally says it to her face
Toei used CGI for the hand in the transformation bank.Sigh...
>>289644165Yes? That's how you know Kurea didn't know. It's the same flashback.
>>289644123Have they ever worked on Precure before?
>>289644016>Arcana Shadow in the darkAre you blind?
>Usonoir was soloing Anna, Mikuru, Luluka at the same time without taking any damage>Kurea transformed for the 2nd time in her entire like and destroyed himNot even moonlight was this good
>>289644023Another potential temporal paradox mmm
>>289644124Kurea told Luluka she was into boys and now she has to pay
>>289644016All the new cuties are saying it's Oshi no Ko or some crap like that but it's really just Naruto and Sasuke.
>>289644193Credits in animenewsnetwork mention>Soaring Sky! Pretty Cure (TV) : Key Animation (ep 50)But I don't see anything else
>>289644212Moonlight would have taken him down without losing her memories like an idiot.
>>289644113She's a bad girl.At least it's better than the inconsequential Purirun amnesia arc from last year. They're trying something with Arcana Shadow so lets see.
>>289644244No she'd just have lost her fairy LMAO
>>289644228at least it hit something
>>289644221Pretty sure she's into Anna and Mikuru, which is a valid crashout and now she has to die
>>289644250Eclair will say they can only be friends and never Lesbians(at least with each other) again.
>>289644252Different circumstances means that wouldn't have happened.Also, children aren't allowed to post here.
THIS WEEK ON SUPER HERO TIME
>>289644244Kurea wasn't the one who lost her fairy tho
Both Luluka and Kurea is straight
>>289644306As a wet noodle
The real twist is that Luluka will keep saying Kurea is the King of Terror but then Mashutan will go "No Luluka. You are the King of Terror!".
I hate Kurea so much, it's unreal.
>>289644332Luluka hasn't done anything wrong so she can't be the king.
STRONGEST PRECURE
>>289644252
>>289644310Wet noodles are straight then they are being hung...
>>289644348shut your bitch ass up Luluka, it's time for anal
>>289644354>Luluka hasn't done anything wrong so she can't be the king.correct. She was just manipulated by Mashutan, the true evil.
Is he seriously going to spend four hours watching one episode
>>289644046>>289644108this fucking "thing" already pisses me off to no end, if it does that then good riddance, hope we can kill it for good.
>>289644391The power of pastry chefs...
>>289644391I don't like her transformation.
>>289644440>Wanting to kill the sexiest character of the season
>>289641112I want Cure Arcana Shadow to step on me
>>289644456I do not give a fuck about furries outside of Yuki, especially the ones who can't shut up, they make me sick.
>>289644440Mashutan is very cute.>>289644456Nobody wants Rei dead.
So is Usonoir actually strong or not? Was Luluka fueling him this entire time?
>>289644443Pâtissières can do this apparently.
>>289644489She was fueling his Armor maybe. But his power of Lies seems to be genuine and the stuff we saw while he was a giant monster was the Jewel+him, no armor involved.
>>289644489If Luluka was that strong she would have just taken the jewel herself.
If Eclair is the great destroyer then how will she take out the world? Like Evangelion(everyone turns into goo) or like Ideon(She explodes and everyone dies)?
Midgetan...
>>289644489>the other 3 together couldn't do anything to himHe is strong. He is just unfortunate to go against the strongest cure in the history
>>289644489did you miss the part where he was holding Eclair's jewel hostage?do any of you retards watch this show
>>289644489At this point I think someone else is manipulating both Luluka and Usanoir. It's either that old lady who talked with Luluka in Kurea's flashback or Mashutan.
so let me guess, the next few episodes going to be Kurea and Luluka beating the shit out of each other while Anna and Mikuru try to make themselves useful by dealing with the small fries and generals like usual?
>>289644571I watch it.
>>289644560Affordabletan
>>289644560What a fairylet. Also no Jett-senpai even as a limited edition for old hag bigfriends makes me cry everytime.
>>289644581Mikuru's grandma (Anna's great grandma) is evil.... and she will reveal Mikuru's real name.
Those useless generals could've helped Lieblack-sama out during the fight....
>>289644597>Kurea and Luluka beating the shit out of each otherLuluka isn't dumb enough to face her head-on. At least not yet.
>>289644611jett gets a cure friends plush instead
>>289644492Theory that Kurea was a originally a ballet dancer is taking shape in my mind.
>>289644620moron
>>289644631she knows Kurea won't cave her face in since she's the one who wants her now, so she can work with that
>>289644581>At this point I think someone else is manipulating both Luluka and UsanoirWhy? Is it so hard to believe Eclair's makoto jewel is truly a danger for the world?
>>289644664What if Eclair happened to lose control? Nah, it's better to send the disposable generals in case an accident happens.
>>289644708>Is it so hard to believe Eclair's makoto jewel is truly a danger for the world?Not him but yes. It being so powerful doesn't really make sense based on what little we know about them so far. How did a dummy like Kurea have one that's so strong?
>>289644718watch as she recover by herself and make it another hype moment of hers since apparently she's the MC now or fucking something, fuck Anna amirite?
>>289644708It might be a danger for the world but if that's the case then that means the London branch would support Luluka's actions.
>>289644482>Nobody wants Rei dead.Just like I don't want you dead either, anon
>>289644708I think it's really more about different timelines and such. If Eclair's Makoto jewel is around then some specific future she wants will disappear.
>ballet dancer>flexible enough to do grand jete>banana shaped feet when pointed Luluka is so lucky... she gets to lick those...
>>289644748At least Anna is the MC of the movie right?
>>289644752they do, why do you think they are withholding info this hard? we don't even the fuck a Makoto Jewel is.
>>289644777whatever, not like I'm going to see it firsthand anyway
>>289644777
>>289644768>I think it's really more about different timelines and such.Maybe, but the prophesy of the dark king is still a thing as far as we know. So maybe there's some connection between that and Eclair's jewel.
>>289644774Luluka hates her.
>>289644784>why doesn't the show immediately reveal everythingplease stop eating glue
So what do you guys think of our !MC Anna, so far? She's kind of useless like Future Trunks isn't she?
>>289644822>hate lick hot...
>>289643692The little sound she made here was so cute.
Ep 26 subs:https://nyaa.si/view/2137551https://nyaa.si/view/2137550
Current Toei hates Time Travelers after all.
>>289644827there's not immediately revealing anything and then there's revealing nothing at all, if we go with common sense when they asked for Luluka's info, Kurea would've been mentioned too, but nope, need to know basis and all
SD has, surprisingly, very few filler episodes
So the book actually talks about how the world will be engulfed in lies because of Kurea becoming a cure again?
>>289644871Three scoops!?Two scoops was a good price.
>>289641308Karin x AranBased Narita sensei delivering
>Girls hate each other>Hmm yeah let's ship them together
>wasn't a detective>but lived in the agency together with Luluka>was very close to Luluka apparentlySo what exactly was the reason for Kurea to even live in the detective agency and be close to Luluka wothout being fellow precure?
>>289644874She was only a cure for a single night
>>2896448831-10 is mostly filler, any episode where Anna isn't talking about muh mommy or how she's a loser stranded in 1999 alone is pretty much a filler
>>289644871Serenae guys I love your stuff
>>289644902I guess the Detective Agency was short staffed, and hired Kurea as a fighter. Kind of makes them scummy right?
>>289644903But she knew Luluka from before she was a cure. She lived in the agency even. And in her toy she said Luluka was her best friend.
>>289644933Kurea wasn't even a precure before she self-destructed
>>289644902Personal chef.
>>289644953They just gave her precure kit and said go help Luluka lol.
>>289644871three scoops? that's crazy
>>289644903but still Luluka's partner, which means she work for them nonetheless.
>>2896449181-9 very much each introduces a new civilian character or general so definitely not a filler
>>289644902Luluka is a good partner who tells her significant other about her secrets instead of trying to keep things hidden for no reason
>>289644901Kurea is down to breed her but Luluka is acting like a bitch as per usual
>>289644960The face of love and peace
>In July of 1999, who holds the stone of truth shall become a great king. And the world will be enveloped in the shadows of lies>Kurea gets her makoto jewel (stone of truth) in July 1999 and become Eclair. Kurea's the king? Seems kind of obvious but this show isn't exactly subtle anyway.
>>289644974She's not a detective either.
>>289645005See? I told you Usonoir was actually the good guy.
>>289644902Her girlfriend
Why make deductions when you can make cakes
Will Anna and Mikuru actually fucking ask about all the background shit from Kurea or are we being edfged for another 20 episodes,m
Eclair doing the splits...
>>289645005Kurea is the King but a certain miss Shadow by shattering said jewel will envelop the world in lies, I guess.
So Kurea's jewel is a problem (too strong for anyone to handle). Eclair only has one sock because the power is incompleted. This means Eclair can be even stronger but maybe because the power is incompleted that Kurea can use it without danger. My prediction is that Luluka's cure form is actually originally black, her white form is just her absorbing a part of Eclair's jewel power to lessen the burden on Kurea.
>>289641850>Kurea discloses to Anna and friends that she was never a detective herselfEclair literally calls herself Star Detective™She has a Pre-Kit Mirror Loupe™She says "CUREtto Case Closed™"What gives?
>>289644871Thanks for the subs.
>>289644902Bet you we dont find out next episode despite Kurea being there and ready to talk.
>>289645053Funnily enough, it's fucking Nijee and Jett-senpai asking the stuff that needs to be said.
>>289645056>Kurea is the King but a certain miss Shadow by shattering said jewel will envelop the world in lies, I guess.Or maybe Kurea will envelop the world in lies since she's the king. And Luluka and the others will have to save her somehow. Maybe they do it by dividing the power into all 4 of them or something.
>>289645084Ew pink nails
>>289645084That part was cool. HD Reflection
>>289645104True Star Detectives don’t need to ask
>Patissier>Ballerina>Fighter jetShe is perfect
>>289641850Good times.
>>289645104>it's fucking Nijee and Jett-senpai asking the stuff that needs to be said.I've always expected good contributions from our precious boys in this season.
>>289645133>BallerinaThat's minus three points at least.
>>289645058so many potential for Luluka and Kurea to grow, meanwhile the other is just a bum sharing their weak ass forms, grim
>>289645135What’s the difference between a chef and a cock
>>289644902>the Curetto agency was just Luluka and Mikuru's either mom or grandma.>They saw in Kurea, potential as a detective and decided to recruit her.>probably Luluka tried to mentor Kurea a few times or they had one or two cases as regular human detectives. possibly Ms. Kobayashi was the precure, but tried to keep that on the downlow, even from Kurea and Luluka.>at some point, K & L met their fairies, Mashutan and Shushutan.>something happened to Ms. Kobayashi, probably she died or was killed by Usonoir. leaving K & L as the only ones who know about the PHANTOMs, Luluka possibly acquired the TearArcana rod and became Cure Arcana>Usonoir finally locates the great Jewel. Kurea somehow awoke her potential and became Eclair. she sacrificed herself shattering the jewel.>Luluka managed to save her life but left her with in the bakery shop, hoping she doesnt come back.>usonoir somehow got ahold of the eclair jewel. Luluka learned about that... and the rest is history.probably thats how it happened.
>>289645133can she do my taxes too?
>>289645061>what gives?>"i just did that for marketing reasons"
I'm excited about Luluka being (forced to be) less reluctant in her evil but also sad that she'll eventually turn good anyway. I hope she at least has a fully corrupted and out of control form before then.
>>289642250>>289643135Literally posted about this last week or the week before and everyone ignored it.The hint was in the show the whole time. The first episode the prophecy is revealed, Usonoir reveals it as a generic "a great king will appear" prediction then reframes it around himself, with the rest of the cast copying his framing. Given that most, if not all prophecies in the show are shown to be red herrings and Cure Eclair is symbolised in show as a monarch butterfly, it really wasn't hard to figure out who the great king actually is.
>>289641210OPEN
Something is wrong with Kurea
>>289645169That doesn't explain why Eclair's jewel is a danger to the world.
>>289645104Nijee was pretty kakkoi this episode.
It does make me wonder though. When did Luluka figure out Kurea was the True King? When she first transformed? I doubt she was against Kurea becoming a cure before the first transformation.
>>289645208She's fine, not her fault that some people get things crawling in their skin and wounds that will not heal.
>>289641210>>289645205WHAT IS TAKING JAPAN SO LONGWHERE IS IT?!
>>289645058I wonder how Anna and Mikuru, the two MCs get relevant.
>>289645169>They saw in Kurea, potential as a detective and decided to recruit her.More like they somehow knew Kurea is the one in the prophecy and kept her close to watch her but Luluka was too incompetent for the job and Kurea transformed anyway
>>289644871god's work anon
>>289645203It was mentioned a few times.
>>289645242Probably when Kurea first trasformed. Luluka is a genius detective after all. Besides Mashutan have some divination powers as well.
>>289645208>>289645209She absorbed a major portion of the Makoto Jewel.
>>289645269Those two are MCs?!!!!
>>289645200>I hope she at least has a fully corrupted and out of control form before then.She's not brainwashed, how are you guys still not getting this
>>289645269Who are you talking about? The side cures?
Is Usonoir going to be Mikuru's grandma's fairy?
>>289645356we dont know yet where Luluka got the rod and her dark jewel.for all we know it could be damaging her.
Why didn't Kurea just impregnate Luluka
>>289645269who? this is the lulu show
>>289645269Who
>>289645200i just want her to be broken down and powerless completely after Mashutan betrays her and she blames herself for doing the same to Kurea, and Kurea saves her by sharing her power with her so she can be Arcana again. The tears and her dependence on Kurea is going to be delicious.
Mashutan is manipulating her but Luluka's actions are still her own.
>>289645393Later when she wins her over.
But seriously when do Anna and Mikuru get relevant? I wonder if Mikuru was ever meant to be a cure.
>>289645252>Luluka is being so edgy she took over PHANTOM. and wants to kill everyone now.and yet, this extreme heelturn feels way more reasonable than FUX's sheer idiocy. and NO, the fact that he is finally fighting back the nightmares next week and doing what he should have been done months ago is not gonna make me forgive his retarded ass.
>>289645435I'm assuming you blanked out the earlier 25 episodes?
>>289645440I thought Luluka just wanted to smash a jewel.
>>289645356>>289645200Luluka's supposed to be the kaito kid of the series, it would be weird if she was a straight up villain. Japan loves the "noble gentleman thief" trope, so when Luluka says she needs to break Eclair's makoto jewel, she's probably being sincere.
Makoto Jewel could be:
>>289645435she's the Komugi of the show, don't expect much from her other than the poor plot shoehorn that came to her dream and gives her a reason to fight the big bad.
>>289645440nobody has any clue what the fuck you're talking about
>>289645444Kurea the center Cure. because lets be honest, Jett-senpai is next.
>>289645460according to Luluka, she wants to defeat both Eclair as well as anna and Mikuru, because if they dont, there 'wont be any future'.so yeah, she wants to kill them.
>>289645444Rei would have been cuter.
>>289644016TR reference
>>289645484Jett Senpai will reverse engineer Usanoir's armor. He's not becoming a cure.
>>289645440you should probably kill yourself for being autistic enough to watch sentai after the age of 8 desu
I just saw the listings are up for the new Precure Coloring book but I won’t drop a link just yet. I loved the reveal of Cure Eclair by the way. When do we get episode titles in a few days?
>>289643346How can they possibly defeat a Precure with infinite attack?
>>289645520What part of stop fucking begging do you still not understand
>>289644016>>289645502!!
Why does these lines look so fucked up? She could just say that they must defeat all meitanteis, or she could say that they must defeat "meitantei Cure Eclair" without "precure", because she didn't give shit about Answer and Mystique before.
>>289645520>When do we get episode titlesIn a week and a half or so.
>>289645590>not watching the fansub
>>289645534But he’s not though? And you always say this so I’m going to ask you again what will happen if he "stops fucking begging" according to you? I’ll wait for your answer.
>>289645459Yeah when they didnt do plot relevant shit for 23 episodes
Is Usonoir paying for the ice from now on or what
>Luluka already knew Usonoir can't control Eclair's makoto jewelThis means the reason for shattering the jewel wasn't to stop Usonoir at all>In this episode, we learnt that the reason behind Kurea memory loss was highly likely to be Luluka>Luluka wants to destroy the jewels>Luluka wasn't please with Kurea regaining her memory>Luluka is set on to steal Kurea's memory againSo Kurea is the king and the only way to stop her is to destroy her power source and erase her memories
>>289645480Komugi is the strongest cure in the entire precure franchise
>>289645616nobody is going to buy things for you anymore now get out
>Turn A referenceNice
Kissu~
>>289645641So is Kurea actually fucking evil?
>>289645658probably her power could be such she could unknowingly destroy the world. not because she's evil.
>>289645658Only if she has her old memories. Just delete her memories and make new memories with her from now on. Thus Luluka's question to Anna and Mikuru
Maybe Mashutan isn't the evil one. It might be Shushutan...
>>289645590>We must def- ACK!!!
time to get some help
The most senpai fairy will become a Pretty Cure.
>>289645690both of them are evil, Pochitan is the neutral (read: good) one
Who's actually going to be the main bad guy though they need to beat up in the end
>>289645728Would that be Mashutan or Jett?
>>289645734Jett
>>289645690Imagine the shitstorm from underaged merch owners
>>289645720not even close? she wanted Kurea dead now
>>289645734The one pulling the strings behind the scenes.
>>289645733I wonder what Jett's alignment is.
>>289645749There's already a purple Cure, there's room for a yellow...
>>289645768just your usual commanding officer.
>>289645728Why does Jett senpai have black pupils? Is that a male fairy thing in this universe?
The only reason Luluka or Kurea is not the MC is because they don't want their role model character to be evil or mentally ill, right? Anna and Mikuru serves no purpose in this story.
No one likes Anna and Mikuru anyway
>>289645734The Book or some other corruptive influence. Perhaps a primordial being like Kaguya from N*ruto.
people like Mikuru, for all the wrong reasons anyway
>Cure Eclair has a similar pattern to the eyes of the Generals>Cure Eclair uses one eye when using her eye powers, and the motifs of the generals have one eye open and one eye coveredYeah, totally not sus at all!
>Luluka was the the big bad all alongREDEMPTIONFAGS GET FUCKEDTHE AGE OF DERANGED SADISTIC PURE EVIL PRECURES IS NOW
I think it would be really funny if Luluka is also misinterpreting the prophecythe vagueposter gets vaguepost'ed
People only like Mikuru for being a joke character. No one seems to like Anna. Pochitan is a popular plush though among kids.
>>289645846I'm positive some you are just genuine retards
>>289645856>No one seems to like AnnaThat's not true.
I love Anna and Mikuru for the right reason
>>289645878Anna is so cute.
>>289645846I find unsettling how Mashutan seems to be totally fine with murder... bitch's even smiling
>>289645904<3
The blue hag is showing up everywhere.
>>289645856i like her when crying and whining about her mom, at least that is some semblance of character being shown, she's gone so low that's her only serious moment defining trait now
>>289645397>hmmm.... so how can i kill my ex-girlfriend and her pesky time-displaced friends now?...
>>289645926
Remember when Luluka said she want Pochitan's power?
>>289645641>>289645658This is reminding me of Kamen Rider Decade, for context that's the first big Heisei anniversary season where the MC (Decade) travels between alternate realities of past Kamen Rider seasons.The key point is: Decade himself is said to be the harbinger of disaster and certain characters treat him like a sort of demon lord fated to destroy all the worlds.It's a show where the MC has a cursed existance that could (in theory) destroy all the Rider worlds.Maybe Luluka is operating from a similar standpoint, Luluka is Narutaki while Kurea is her Decade.
>>289645878>>289645904>>289645922Yeah thanks for confirming that nobody likes her
>>289645955moron
>>289645950to return to her own time maybe?
>>289645955Decade sucks.
Liking Anna or Mikuru is like liking the human characters in a kaiju movie, you're weird.
>>289645975It's not objectively good but it's really fun.
>>289645950to save Kurea just in case she fucks up and killed her (she won't lmao)
>>289645974She's not a time traveler
>>289645979There is nothing wrong with liking the comic relief(Mikuru) in a serious movie.
>>289645904She's not Anna, She's Kaitou Kid!, She's a man...
>>289645950Retcon.
>The show will answer the mystery of who was the Pretty Cure who inspired Mikuru to become a Pretty CureWhy do I feel like this show is going to dive into more time travel hijinks and it's going to be either Anna or Mikuru herself?
>>289646045She looks more evil than the generals do.
>>289645607It doesn't look any better.
>>289646048it better be, this time travel gimmick is way undercooked at this point, they might as well be in 2027 and the plot can still the same regardless.
>>289646048>Why do I feel like this show is going to dive into more time travel hijinksThat would contradict an earlier interview so probably not. I think it's obvious that it was her grandma.
>>289646048Did you forget her grandma from the very first episode
>>289646045yup. pure evil. has to be dededestroyed
>>289645950Luluka explained what Pochitan's role is.Pochitan exists to reforge the great jewel, this is done by recollecting the makotojewels.assuming her plan is just to destroy the eclair jewel so eclair doesnt destroy the world, she probably wouldnt dare touch Pochitan since the great jewel is also needed for the universe to still be in one piece.

>>289645645I'm glad we still have men of culture in these threads
>>289646084>Not only did Anna not recognize her mom>Mikuru also doesn't recognize her grandmastupidity runs in the family I suppose
Jesus ChristAnime almost never scares me, but this made my blood run coldLuluka is terrifying
>>289645734>>289645833>Who's actually going to be the main bad guy though they need to beat up in the end>Perhaps a primordial being like Kaguya from N*ruto.There are plenty of examples of that in Precure movies, they typically have the more redeemable OC with a cute design, and then an adult/ugly irredeemable villain behind the scenes to eat the final attack.
>>289646136Scary? She's cute.
>>289646084>grandma cure
>>289646136I wonder how the kids watching this are feeling right now.

>Jett-senpai will have to take care of 4 idiots in the end.Poor guy.
Shiruku, the forgotten.But on the other hand...
>>289646172assuming she'll even live after Kurea is done with her
>>289646224That would be fun.
>>289646123Melee all rounder DPS
>>289646048A Mikuru arc in the third cour would be a good way to keep the momentum going.
Just look at Kurea and Jett-senpai, without Anna and Kobayashi clients would be forcefully kicked out 100% of the time.
>>289646116to still be in what???
I would stop my GF too if she had stuff like this going in her eye so I'm totally onboard with Luluka
>>289646297She can't even shoot beam from her eyes
>>289646274What’s Kobayashi wearing on her neck
>>289646314She's going to shoot something out of it she should get it checked
>>289646297>>289646340The eye represents that she currently has half power, right? (I'm saving the ep for tomorrow)
I don't want doomed yuri, just give me normal yuri, Maruyama
Murayama looked at the doomed yuri arc in Kimi to Idol and said>Oh, we can do that now?

>>289646521Hopefully she blows up again.
how would u guys react if Luluka hit Eclair with tha you ain't nothing but a hound dog?
>>289646408Yeah, Meroron felt like she was supposed to be a general for a part of the season. Seeing Luluka getting that treatment here is bizarre now, even though I can see why from the story implications.
>>289646549>Meroron felt like she was supposed to be a general for a part of the season.
>>289645846>People expect Luluka to get fixed by the time of the movie>inb4 the reason Luluka works with the Cures during the movie is because she has nothing to do with the movie events and if anyone is going to take down Cure Eclair, it will be her
>>289646539Luluka is not living to see tomorrow, picking a fight with a gorilla is bad enough and now you want her to go super saiyan?
>>289646549>Meroron felt like she was supposed to be a general for a part of the seasonNope.>Seeing Luluka getting that treatment here is bizarre nowShe's been a general from the start.
Total Mayu-sama Luv
>>289646549how many of you niggas are seriously getting folded by a preschool show?
>>289646585>People expect Luluka to get fixed by the time of the movieNo one expects that. Everyone knows her cause is right. Eclair's the king, her jewel is evil.
>>289646601Komugi acting like she's the MC, get back lil bro
>>289646616If the jewel is evil then there is no need to erase memory. Kurea is the problem here
>>289646604Luluka's motivations for being the baddies is understandable (my gf is going to kill herself and the world with her power blabla), point is KTI had Meroron with the same kind of corruption plot but they pussied out and had her reform in one episode while Luluka's going to be the main baddie for one cour at least that I hoped Meroron would have been in Idol
>>289646728It took Meroron longer than that to chill out.
>>289646728>Meroron with the same kind of corruption plotthat's not what happened at all
>>289646372Honestly, I don't blame the guy. Maho and ST have great yuri but after writing two seasons of overly fluffy yuri (for the most part), I can see why a diehard yurifag would be in the mood to write toxic yuri instead, at least for a couple of months or so. Asuka/Yuriko drama was him trying out that sort of thing for a season where he wasn't the main writer, so I did kind of see Arcana Shadow and Eclair drama being a distinct possibility even early on.
>>289646768Please never post again. Precure is not like that.
>>289646728Meroron didn't chill out for like a fourth of a season if you count when she started acting out as episode 18. Though you could argue she was a problem since episode 12 even if no one took the red flags seriously back then.
>>289646801then it's time to be like that

>>289646414This reminds me, Kurea could already jumped very high before transformation. She might be even more of a physical monster than Sora or Manatsu
>>289646899I predicted about 90% of this episode's "twists" in previous threads and you don't see me bragging about it. Just jack off to the cures and gulp it up.

>>289646895Yeah Luluka should have just explained everything to the audience by episode 2.
>>289646601MUGI!!!!!!! YAY YAY YAY!!!! WANDERFUL!!!!
>>289647022>give everyone what they wantOk, husbands for all the Cures from 99.
>>289646728The plot setup in Kimi to Idol wouldn't quite justify Meroron going batshit insane, the thing she did by acting like a mini-yandere and monopolizing Purirun was wrong, but still within a "reasonable" circle.Now the plot setup in Meitantei has more at stake that it justifies Luluka acting out of the box.
>>289646981wow!! holy shit dude!! that's so cool you're really above it all.
>>289645644Thats not what I said and when did I say to buy things for me? You’re an absolute retard.
>>289647029not the same thing, dumb merorot
>>289647056>the thing she did by acting like a mini-yandere and monopolizing Purirun was wrong, but still within a "reasonable" circleAbsolutely not.
>>289645644You keep saying this all the time and you haven’t answered my question.
>>289646801Kira Kira had Akira/Yukari, and Idol had that mess with Purirun/Meroron (which was solved by Nana of all people acting as a therapist). Even before that was Mana/Rikka and Mana/Regina though people tend to overlook the toxic yuri elements as the wacky yuri harem antics overshadow them. It's also helps that Mana is the type of monster that can somehow juggle two menhera and end up fine.
>>289647082She was treating Purirun well and still participated in the fights.By default Luluka actively attacking the Cures is arguably more far in the evil scale.
>>289647063Thank you sir, you're a cool dude too. It's just a skill that I've cultivated from all my years of consuming anime so I can predict simple plotlines like this.
That's it, I'm making the Cure Arcana Shadow villains page.
>>289647094Blah, blah, blah.Stop talking about things you know nothing about.>menheraYou literally just learned that word, stop using it for everything.
>>289645644That’s not for you to decide who will buy things for who and he didn’t even say that you moron. What are you going on about?
>>289647144>You literally just learned that word, stop using it for everything.That's a huge clue that you only browse Precure threads, that term isn't even new.
>>289647122>She was treating Purirun wellAnd how did she treat everyone else? Her attitude was completely unreasonable. Luluka at least has a good reason for what she's doing and she was never part of Anna's team.
>>289647126haha yeah thanks. you have a good night my friend.
>>289647063>>289647126

>>289647187It's new to you.Rikka is the sane, reasonable one of the Doki girls, she's not a psycho.
>>289647216We're going to get Naruto tourists if you do that.
>>289647216this except >>289641760
>>289647239That's the whole reason he posted that. If someone does use that then a new thread will have to be made.
>>289644901welcome to yuri nation my friend
>>289647257Same for >>289641760, if anyone tries to make a new thread with that then someone else make a new thread tooNo stupid off-topic eye shenanigans garbage, just make it Precure related you duncesAlso wait until this thread is archived, stop making earlies
>>289643127DELET THIS
Eclair Shadow is basically confirmed now that Luluka is the baddies
>someone bumping every single thread on page 10 again to get this thread archived fasterIt's all so tiresome
yeah... sorry
>>289647340shut up you're not sorry
>>289647195Damn, missed an Erika post.
>>289647350
>>289647369squish the blue
How many earlies?
>>289647375As much as people hate to admit it, Naruto is Precure adjacent.
>>289647340>>289647375>>289647392Fuck all the way off.
No but seriously, stop bumping threads on page 10 to make this archive fasterKnock it off
>>289646895>>289647009>>289647029Is it really this hard to follow a show for toddlers? Jesus, the great king returning and the world being covered in shadows are two separate clauses. >why doesn't Lukuka just...because Eclair being active is a pre-requisite, not the end point
>>289647396>Rin is NarutoI never made that connection.
Hmm... No.
