I know movie trailers lie a lot, but this is a bit ridiculous

>>290208823Ha Ha!Shadow is gone forever!!
>Futari wa Precure is on western Disney+ nowWhat does this mean?
>>290208842Meant to reply to the last post in the last threadSo smart
>>290208789>the only way to defeat Eclair is by turning her onwhat did they mean by this?
>>290208856True.We all agree.
IT´S SOILED!
>>290208842No problem>>290208859She's funny
Kiss Eclair. Headpat Eclair. Kabedon Eclair against a concrete wall. Tuck Shushutan into bed with a kiss.
Apologize to the leakers.

POST ECLIPSE SHADOW FANART!
Your verdicts on the movie form?
>>290208957Looks like pixies
>>290208823Uta deserved to be in a better season.
>>290208898>>290208884I was pretty sure it was real even back when all we got was the acrylics, but I get being skeptical back then. Once we got the button, I knew for sure it was 100% happening though. Anyone who denied it past that point was just deluding themselves with lies.
>>290208957Looks like shit just like the regular form. Stupid fucking slime hair.
>>290208972>Cure White voices a plot critical white digimon in the final arcKek
>>290208957white is Luluka's thing now, should've stuck with Urple
>>290208957terrible
>>290209045>>290208972Snek Honoka.
>little girls are scared of Eclipse Shadow which is why she will last a grand total of 2 episodes instead of being the arc big bad that she should've beenWhat the fuck is little girls' problem?!
>>290209098post the likes
eclair is quite easily the strongest cure in the franchise
>>290209112But we have goddess haa..
>>290209112too bad she's gay and that's a huge debuff
>>290209098Brother they're four year old girls also these episodes are written and animated weeks/months in advance so they can't possibly pivot in response to feedback that quickly.
>>290208823It was already obvious in the trailers. You were coping then, and you’re coping now.
>>290209098Kids are scared by everything. Make familair character slightly darker, they get upset.
Are Luluka and Kurea, you know?
Is Kurea a well written character?
>>290209129Yeah, they intentionally planned it that way early on. Maybe not quite at the start, but probably before Luluka even appeared.
>>290209098Bandai caring about what little girls think hamstrung the series for 2 decades. Maybe the series can start getting good again now that they stopped caring about Cures fighting.
>>290209129We know do research with childrens' psychologists and specialists while writing the show from Brian's essay about working with Toei during the production of Smile.
Is Kurea straight?
>>290209147I won't have any definitive opinions on the plot/characters till the show ends. She's ok for now
>>290209148Obviously, but they do it with little girls' in mind.
Hello, /a/.
>>290209145Straight.>>290209163Yes
>>290209147I'm not sure why they'd make her the gay one instead of Luluka
>>290209183How horrifying.
>>290209183EEEWWWW!!!
>>290209191They're both the gay one though
>>290209191Did you forget about Luluka projecting when she was counseling that girl about love ?
>>290209136this is true for grown ups as well
>>290208789Don't worry Annabros. Soon Anna will get more and more supermodels.
>>290209098This guy is always posting about his daughter getting scared of everything. Everything scares that kid, the guy is probably overprotective as shit and blames her issues on everything else.
>>290209147She's boring so I don't think she's well written.
Time traveler here.Here are your next seasons.
>>290209215>>290209217Luluka was merely converted, Kurea is the one who started it
The Black and White.
>>290209271where the fuck is my Jurassic World Precure?
I hope the 2027 candles and bodyswap series doesn´t turn into shit.
>>290209306Sister, this is modern Precure. It will.
>>290209331*brother
>>290208885Hahaha, "Star" detective
Star Defective
>>290209299Cures managing a theme park could be fun.
>>290209283>next two episodes will likely have Luluka showing off her feelings for KureaCan't wait
What if Luluka loved spaghetti? Will Kurea turn Italian?
>>290208936Why's Minori eyeing Sango like that...?
>>290209401She'd betray the Queen of England and turn French if Luluka loved snails.
>>290209377The cures would've to be 20+ if we're going with work manager theme
>>290209402ultra lesbo
>>290209414If middle schoolers could run a bakery, then I don't think a theme park is an issue
>>290209429>run a bakeryKurea is a wagie.
>>290209437I'm talking about Kira Kira
>>290209401>>290209412it's so fucking funny how Luluka's craving decides Kurea's fate in society
Macor resolution.
>>290209402It's lunchtime, and Minori wants a tuna sandwich.
>>290209405Malk?
>>290209467Uta deserved to be in a better season.
>>290209437she's working there to gather information. she probably fucks the old man for information, too.
>>290209466They're both at least a little bit psycho. They really are soulmates.
Hahaha... You have no power here, Luluka the Gray.
>>290209555Luluka is the old men fucker, not her
>>290209568>Putting gummy bears on a ice cream cone...It makes me sick!
>>290208823>>290208898>>290209029>>290208884I'm very happy I decided against watching this.
>>290209568More like Luluka the Gay LOL
>>290208859Won
>>290209555Do you men have an old man fetish ? Fucking odd to bring up old men in every context
"Modern precure is shit" but which one is the first "modern" season exactly?
>>290209687The one you dislike the most, obviously.
But what if Luluka craves boys? where will Kurea work then?
>>290209729Minecraft youtuber
>>290209729Prostitute, like her fellow orphans
I am still shocked there isn't a Precure Academy theme. A whole academy to training Precure in a magic world. The pink would naturally be a random Japanese nobody who accidentally joined when the fluff-brained fairy for the season accidentally mailed the wrong invite out.
>>290209480Kurea's POV when she comes home from working at the patisserie...
>>290209687HaCha, but in reality, it was Delicious Party. Other candidates include Kirakira, Healin' Good and Hirogaru Sky.
>>290209755Aikatsu is definitively the closest that you'll get to that in the little girl anime realm.
>>290209687Going to say "modern" is Reiwa era. So everything past 2019. Which means everything past Huggto. Which means not every one is bad, I like Tropical Rogue, Delicious Party, even the first half of Hirogaru Sky
aisu gives me knowledge
>>290209797Precure WILL get around to it. Every idea that is pitched in these threads that is based on something remotely popular is something that they will have to do eventually simply because they don't plan to stop making them.
>>290209821ST started in Heisei so it doesn't count.The same way Kamen Rider Black RX is Showa or Kamen Rider Zi-O is Heisei.
>>290209687Personally speaking, I'd say Hirogaru Sky is the start of the "modern" era since the franchise has been on the experimental side since then compared to most other post-HaCha seasons at least. I don't think GoPri is wrong though if you want to go that far back.
>>290209821>I like Hirogaru Sky
>>290209834Maybe, I do think if they're bound to make more 50 seasons or whatever they're going to need to approach more outlandish themes little by little.Hell, detective is definitively something that they wouldn't have done circa 2016 when they still had a lot of girly themes.
On that topic, bring back the blue one-piece swimsuit
>>290209872who the fuck is this?
>>290209868Detective is definitely "Where were they going with this" kind of like LuPat. Which is: It had a very strong starting concept but there's no way they could keep this theme up for 40 episodes. They're already starting to slip on the Detective theme and we're only halfway through.
>>290207973they'd already know each other if that were the case, no?I think Kurea comes from an orphanage and Luluka is a rich kid with dead parents.add the detective stuff on top, and Luluka is basically batman.
>>290209888None other than: The kobasexy
you wouldn't lust over Mikuru if she's smart
>>290209844>Nobody wavedit's so over.
>>290209821>I like Hirogaru SkySame here, I love that blue cutie
>>290209897As long as there are mysteries the show is offering a detective angle.
>>290209834DINOCURE SOONER OR LATER >>290209844SAY HI TO BUKI
>>290209844
>>290209937>you wouldn't lust over Mikuru if she's smartShe isn't, so it's okay!
>>290209970what perfume?
>>290209953Having a mystery doesn't make you a detective. If that were the case, every show where we didn't know the true identity of the big bad is also a detective show.
What if Luluka loves fast food slop? I guess it's over for Kurea.
>>290209872Doubly so if they're wearing a shirt.
>>290210008Rei
>>290209999She'll only go for the milkshakes.>Wendy's frosties >McFlurry>Whatever Burger King names theirs
>>290209834>>290209868They'll probably start reusing main themes at some point. I'll be surprised if they keep it up past the 30th anniversary. There's technically some overlap already with desserts (Kira) and food in general (DP) though I would say those are still distinct enough themes. There are also times where a season's subtheme matches a different season's main theme (Like Fresh having card suites as an obvious subtheme but Doki having that as a main theme).
>>290209985retard
>>290210015I wish she could come back but it's clear she's probably never appearing outside of teh background again, may as well give her VA the death flowers
>>290210039>>290209999she's good looking enough to be a Mcdonalds cashier at least
>>290210046uh oh, the autist is having melty, again.
>>290210040If they reuse themes, they better reuse the tropical theme and go more exotic with it. I hate that Smile and Splash Star were the only rehash seasons when it's clear people like comparing counterparts.
>>290209687That statement is wrong so there's no reason to ask that question. Precure is doing great and SD is no exception.
>>290208855Toei wanted to monetize them outside of YouTube? the english channel spent all of last summer slowly uploading it, dubbed Digimon S1 and 4Kids Doremi
>>290210040>>290210073This but the worldwide-Precure ide again.
>>290210073>Smile and Splash Star were the only rehash seasonsThey aren't rehashes.
>>290209897>>290209953>>290209985Star Detective has more than enough episodic and overarching mysteries to justify being called a detective season. Seasons not really adhering to their theme is more of an early season problem anyways (like Smile not having much to do with fairy tales, opting instead to be more or less random).
>>290210060Why you think that?
>>290209985>Interviewer: I see (laughs). With things like the reason Anna Akechi time-slipped to 1999, it really is a show where the characters themselves hold a lot of mysteries.>Murayama: That is intentional. Star Detective Precure! has several layers to it. The main target of 3 to 6-year-old kids can enjoy the cuteness and prettiness of the Precure. Slightly older kids in early to middle elementary school can enjoy the mystery-solving. And then the parents watching with them can enjoy the bigger mysteries like, “Why did Anna come to the past?” or “What is Cure Arcana Shadow’s goal?” or “Who is Cure Eclair?” We consciously created points of interest for every generation to enjoy.Seems like the characters are more focused on the episodic mysteries presented on front of them because that's very accessible to kids or anyone picking up the show, meanwhile the long-term mysteries are easier for adults and dedicated fans to follow, in a way they're more meta because the characters aren't constantly seeking them (with exception of like the candidate arc, or a few eps like that one that they sent a letter to London, etc) and that's by design to make the show easier to pick up, which when you stop to think about it, that's Precure in general.
>>290209953>As long as there are mysteriesWhat mysteriesAlso how does the identity thing happening right now relate to detectives at all other than it happened at a detective agency.
>>290210086>4Kids Doremi
>>290210110>What mysteriesRead the last thread. You're literally watching with your eyes closed.
>>290210110you're being a retard on purpose
>>290210100Face it anon, she was a red herring like Seika and Waon who served her purpose and is now obsolete. We may get to see her in an episode later on, but she's basically vanished in terms of relevancy. At the very least, we still have the fanart.
>>290210073Splash Star has an entirely different main theme from FW even if its characters look like Nagisa 2.0 and Honoka 2.0. GoGo had a fairy tale focused general, but GoGo itself wasn't really fairy tale focused as a whole. Smile copies Yes 5 to some extent, but not its theme.
>>290210132I would agree, if she weren't inexplicably appearing in a plot vital episode next week.
>>290210132I doubt the non Eclairs will be completely irrelevant
sometimes a side character is just a side character
>>290210128>>290210130>wahhh wah wahhhhhOk answer the fucking question instead of crying your autistic little eyes out. This isn't any different from any other conflict they have any other season. This has nothing to do with detectives. Last season we had the mystery of Meroron's promise. Learn to take some criticism for once in your life and stop throwing a fit every thread.
>>290210168There was Kaito just last season whose ex turned out to be a general.
>>290210173shouldn't you be spamming bad takes about kirakira right now?
>>290210154>>290210156> if she weren't inexplicably appearing in a plot vital episode next week.If she suddenly becomes plot relevant again I'll eat my hat.
>>290210187I don't even remember Kirakira. What I do remember is every thread someone upsets a brittle little autist and he fills his diaper with "Fuck off, retard, I'll shoot you, how dare you make me feel upset" and that's been his contribution for the last 10+ years.
Really loving the detective themes this year
>>290210173There are more overlapping mysteries and moving pieces at once, which is more fun to discuss.That's why Meitantei has so many batshit crazy theories that don't even feel out of place, compared to say, HS where a lot of theories were obviously bullshit because the show was simply that empty.
>>290210220It helps that there twists that happened that no one has managed to guess even with all of the schizo posting flying around (like Kurea becoming a patissier because Luluka likes ice cream or Luluka getting an even edgier form)
Official nuishttps://x.com/BANPRE_PZ/status/2089193027491516712
>>290210307>vol.1 features Cure Answer, Cure Mystic, and Pochita in the lineupI wonder if vol.2 will feature both Shadow and Blanca? I'm curious to see the consistency of Shadow merch from now on.
>>290210323If they're smart, they'll keep her in the lineup.
>>290210309Wait a minute...They don't have mint chocolate chip!
Luluka needs to take responsibility.
>>290210181>exDon't say that. You mean former friend.
>>290209687Reiwa is modern Precure, which has been mostly bad with TR being the outlier.
>>290210426I like Delicious Party

>>290210458>>Idol>Really greatOpinion discarded
>>290210514This is one of the rare seasons where I miss the random "filler" episodes more than the plot heavy ones, because I just don't find this mystery going on very good.
Mikuru should've been gay
>>290210514>I miss when Star Detective was goodWhen was that?
>>290210535anna will never be born...
>>290210426>>290210458Wonderful and TR were great, DP and HG were good, and HS and Idol were decent.I don't think any of them are horrible.
>>290210532I think the overarching mysteries that popped up after Cure Eclair's identity was revealed have been pretty fun like "What is Luluka's motivation for beating Eclair?", "Where did Anna get her jewel?", and "Why is Mikuru so quiet about her connection to Mafuru?".
>>290210342Sorry, gayest cures are still Chocolat and Macaron, and I don't think anything will ever change that.>The episode that started with them reading sappy romance poetry to each other while blushingThe subtext was just text.
show lost me with this whitewash shit, aipri is my new baby show
>>290210711>aipriBasically a visual novel because the storyboard direction and animation is so fucking boring.
>>290210711bruh
>>290210731I blame OLM
>>290210731You're comparing an action show to a character drama
>>290210751wow that looks fucking miserable
Probably gonna watch Eclipse Shadow episodes and then drop this series.Probably watch an Eliza or Shiruku episode.
>>290210813The fabled 30 episode precure season..
>>290210804Actual little girls seem to be liking white designs though
Kurea and Luluka should've been the main cure
>>290210840It's not even the white designs, it's that she looks like a cake decorated with tacky dollar store sugar decorations. White as a design doesn't look bad, it looks bad when it's paired with something that doesn't complement or is so busy that the simplicity of white is buried.
>>290210859People say this every year since WP.
>>290210872*Hirogaru sky*Kirakira*Go Princessetc. etc. etc.
It was fun while it lasted. This is gonna be one of worst Precure seasons ever!
>>290210868The Pretty Rhythm series started with grounded clothing, Pripara started getting flashier, especially with the Cyalume Change outfits (in Precure terms it would be the "finisher" since it only appears at the end of a song).I don't like the state of the franchise nowadays, but those first 7 years (3 Pretty Rhythm seasons and 4 Pripara seasons) were a top-tier run. I still recommend.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWa4IiYIAIs
It was a fun episode.
>>290210912what about prichan and primagi?
Complaints about new designs always instantly vanish when they do a cool punch
>>290210940>prichan Kinda like Pripara but less funny.>primagiKinda like Pretty Rhythm but the emotions don't go as high.Like, it's fine if you want more, but it doesn't get better than those first 7 years.

>>290211039koba stop.. that's your daughter.
>>290211039>we're all gay little girls herenah judging by the threads you all watching the shows and rate them the fat otaku pedo way
>>290210711Same
>>290210813Aost exactly the same as Idol when Purirun got her memories back. The show effectively ended there and the rest of the show tanked afterwards.
>>290211273those shows are boring as hell and have obligatory shitty 3d lives every episode that don't even make sense narrative wise sometimesyou wouldn't stand it
>>290211289People are really saying it's le over because of a color palette swap? lolMeitantei easily has enough plot momentum to carry to the finish line.
>>290211337I assume a "same" would imply that he already watches it.
Apparently, pokemon is no more a weekly series soon so one shitty all year long toddler toy commercial less on tv. I doubt that will ever happen to precure though
>>290209178Want to sniff.
>>290209305Want to lick...
>>290211430I didn't believe you so I had to look further... damn.Times are changing, Ultraman stopped being year-long, One Piece stopped being year-long, Super Sentai stopped being year-long (the timeslot went to Project Red that now has half-year long seasons)... Kamen Rider, Precure and Conan are becoming one of the last bastions of the format, and even then Conan has so many fillers now that it's unwatchable without a canon episode guide.imo part of the appeal of kid's shows is having such a big episode count that they can insert a lot of episodic stories to let you get attached to the characters.I think Precure/Kamen Rider/etc could easily work with 3 cours (36 eps), but 24 just feels so short. I guess Pokemon has the advantage of having multiple years per generation, so it still could hit like 50-75 eps or so. Just stop to imagine for a sec a Precure season with 5 Cures fighting for screentime in just 24 episodes. It would be very hard to make it work.
>>290211587Starzz Defective is putting Precure deep back in the danger zone. With increasing production costs year after year it's not sustainable to have flopping seasons like that.Super Sentai died recently. Nobody can reasonable say that Precure has a bright future, commercially.
>>290211651You're retarded and I'm dumb for waiting for a reply at this hour of the night.

>>290214355Mayu was really the dedicated "best friend" of wonderful like Tomoyo. No real personality, just wants to see her best friend happy.
>CCS mentionedInteresting.
>>290214413Seriously, very, very interesting, provocative, even. I will be monitoring this thread closely to ensure it's on its best behavior to not mention other magical girl series in the precure thread, otherwise, the consequences will never be the same (I'll have a seething temper fit).
>>290214499Thank you.
>>290214181It's kind of obvious she's turning white before the movie. My guess is episode 31. Whether or not the Shadow form appearing in the movie means she can form change or not though is anyone's guess.
>>290211651The problem with Star Detective was the huge gap between between Arcana's debut and Eclair's debut with just nothing big there, toy-wise. It really needed one extra Cure in the 10s toywise.
Did Murayama go too far? Isn't it too soon for little preschool kids to think of this?
>>290214576Retard
>>290214576I think this is just cope, we've had this before and it hasn't had the massive drop-off that SD had.
>>290214584gross, she's giving eclair her rod, someone stop that little girl
Luluka is ready for her trip.
>>290214405I didn't expect to see such Tomoyo slander in a Precure thread.Out of the various Cures, I'd say Alice reminds me the most of her, probably because of the power of money aspect. If Mana and Rikka didn't have her own costumes, Alice would definitely have dressed them up.
>>290214584>all of those hearts in the left picNo, silly, those are platonic hearts
>>290214609In recent years they just kept debuting Cures earlier and earlier.It has been a long time since an actual mid-20s debut.
>>290214677>I didn't expect to see such Tomoyo slander in a Precure thread.You did, since you wrote >>290214405 yourself.
seething temper fit time?
>>290208789Nobody cares anymore, we're on to the next cure.
>>290214584>the guy on the leftdamn, little dude went off to the deep end with that one. Wonder how the parents are going to explain that one to him.
>>290214801>himthat's a girl
>>290214584Yuri so blatant even little girls notice it
>>290214769>only 1 person in the precure thread has seen Sakuralol this anon's paranoia is so silly, what do you think are the chances that nobody here has checked a different classic mahou shoujo?
>>290214677Alice is definitely up there. This title could apply to most Blues, thinking back on it. Like Rikka, who has no personality other than "I want to see Mana succeed". Then she had her Ira episode and most of the writers didn't know what to do, either.
>>290214405True.
Lately, the recent Precure series feel like they're full of kinda meh content...HiroPre -> Huge mistake making a guy with barely any main episodes and lackluster action into a Precure. Would've been way better if he'd just stayed as Gummy Bird. Plus, the final boss's handling was meh too.WanPre ->The cat crew basically stole the spotlight from the main cast. Sealing away the hand-to-hand combat killed the catharsis.KimiPre -> Blatant pushing of the male characters. Culprit Prurun, that annoying-as-hell Meroron just piles on the stress. The red idol's awful treatment.TanPre -> The protagonist duo's total non-entities. The blatant padding with the Éclair arc. Éclair's so overpowered it's like, why not just let her handle everything solo? The mysteries that stay stubbornly unclear while piling up more and more are getting on my nerves.
>>290214584Young yurichads, may they grow healthy and strong
>>290214799The group attack is incoming. We aren't getting another mainline. If anyone's going to be revealed a side Cure, it's going to be Mafuru. She arguably already was revealed to be such.
>>290214584You mean the pic on the left? That feels like the only one that has shipping.
>>290214816with that name? I doubt it
>>290214845>complaining about male characters in two instancesstopped reading, you're just "one of those"
>>290214845I'm not sure I would say 'meh', they have been trying new things but they do it in the most forgettable way. I remember almost every plot point of DokiDoki and Go Princess. I remember nothing about Wonderful or Delicious Party and those are 2-3 years old compared to DD airing almost 13 years ago.
>replying to a copy paste xitter shitpost
>>290212961She doesn't havd to try if she never had periods.
>>290214663Why is Luluka the only one who wears tights?
>>290214881Oh right and my mind skipped HiroPre altogether and went straight to Delicious Party because I forgot that even happened altogether
>>290214584I am really curious about how these kids talk about precure with their friends.
>>290214874Nah mate. I have no problem with heterosexuals otherwise I would have complained about Satoru which I think was fine for little girls show.
>>290214912>friendsHaha.. sure.>No one must know my terrible secret.jpg>>290214904You must acknowledge her silky legs/thighs
>>290214881>Interviewer: You have been involved with the series since Futari wa Precure: SplashStar. What do you think makes Precure unique compared to other shows?>Murayama: I think it changes depending on the era. For example, Maho Girls Precure! was a series where we didn’t do any of the complex mysteries or foreshadowing that you see in Star Detective Precure!. Leading up to that year, the target age for the series had slowly been creeping up, and we worried that the really little kids might be having a hard time following along. So the policy was to hit the reset button. The concept was to make it episodic, keep the story bright and fun, and return to a show that small kids could purely enjoy.Because they basically confirmed that the Doki-GoPri era was the show starting to target older younger girls (either by accident or intentionally so), but with Maho they backtracked a bit.
>>290214836>Like Rikka, who has no personalityFuck off.
It's funny but somehow I am finding Delicious party more memorable than many of the recent shows. Maybe having its own fucking movie helped or something.
>>290214923Which is funny because Doki through GoPri seemed to have the most simple "Beat the bad guy" plots.
>>290214930Iced Bluebird only exists to give Mana a reason to keep going.
>>290214845Then stop watching.>>290214881>I remember nothing about Wonderful or Delicious PartyMaybe you're just stupid?
>>290214944Delicious Party at least had something going on. The human fairy companions did wonders for making people remember the season, because they had more character episodes to compensate.
>>290214944Letting a movie decide that a show is memorable sounds weird, nobody gets super attached to the Fresh movie or Smile movie but the shows are considered memorable.
>>290214969Mana very specifically doesn't focus on one person, she's there to help everyone so she doesn't need motivation.
>>290214977No, I'm not to the point where I'm yelling at random posters while seething every thread because people bring up other Magical Girl shows, so I'm at least several standard deviations higher than the posters here.
>>290214969...are you thinking of Reika?
Are you ready to apologize?
>>290215002No, Rikka. Who, again, is such a nobody that people confuse her with the other blue ice-powered cure.
>>290208789How do you feel knowing that the hot and cool new Eclipse Shadow design will debut in what looks like a poorly animated episode and be quickly phased out by the bland all white design?
>>290214852I kind of feel bad if anyone's first exposure to yuri is whatever Kurea and Luluka have going on. Yukari/Akira and Purirun/Meroron are pretty unhealthy, but it's not too hard to find something similar if you delve into actual yuri. Something unhealthy to the level of Kurea/Luluka is a lot more niche outside of that one show or are only similarly twisted because of a different taboo reason (like incest, pedophilia, and such).
>>290214944I think Wonderful is very memorable but DP does a lot of fun things right and has a cast with no unlikable Cures or support characters.
>>290214977>Hey the recent seasons have been flawed, maybe the quality is just going do->STAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWP wew, gonna knock over your train set?
>>290208789Why is she going evil now?
>>290215006I am never apologizing to a stinky fish
>>290215023I still think it's funny that the breaking point for a lot of people is a color swap.The big cataclysmic event that is making more doomposters pop up... they changed the colors of a Cure.Big doopity woo.
>>290215014>people confuse her with the other blue ice-powered cure.I think he was asking if you were confused. Rikka is nothing like how you described her.>>290215043If you don't enjoy something then don't waste time on it. That's not throwing a fit, it's good advice.
>>290215059>now
>>290215037DP is the rare case that the Cure screentime balance is actually balanced, but it being balanced is proof that it doesn't make a show perfect.People can nitpick certain seasons for X or Y Cure getting the short end of the stick, but fact is, even a show with a flawled screentime balance can be really strong in other areas to compensate.
>>290215094Even more evil I mean. Did she get her ass whopped and needs more POWER?
>>290215096Or the people whining about precure don't actually watch the fucking sow
>>290215103she's just playing hard to get with Kurea
>>290215096I think DP was weak with Yui focus until the finale arc.
>>290214941Kobanaughty
>>290215036I know at least that very young teens will always ship toxic stuff first and be really deranged and edgy about it too, at least when it's straight stuffThey will be alright in comparison
>>290208895I know it was pretty obvious this was gonna happen but they really spoiled in the ED huh?
>>290215023How i feel depends how quickly its phased out. The only time we saw Megumi's incredibly sexy idol precard was in an aoyama episode too and im still a little mad about it a decade and a half later.
Will this be her super mode?
What was the secret Luluka didn't want the others to see?
>>290215232LolLmaoIt will last two episodes at best
>>290215342Kurea's dick size
>>290215096Yui didn't really have much focus until near the end.
>>290215354Two eps is fine since it would allow another animator to step in for part 2.Otherwise the design is only going to thrive in fan art.
>>290215354I'm praying it even lasts that long. I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if it was a one and done.
>>290215342Her white form seems like an obvious answer. Luckily for her Anna and Mikuru don't actually care enough about Kurea to stick around and watch.
>>290215354I'm surprised how optimistic people are about Eclipse Shadow's screentime after Dark Sky and Dark Komugi got a whole whopping 5 minutes before getting canned
>>290215399>Kurea spends the whole episode reminiscing>The two barely gave a fuck outside of grandma showing upwhat the fuck is their problem?
>>290215311Close enough, welcome back Cure Joker.
It doesn't matter if it's half an episode or two of Eclipse Edge, Blanca is coming directly after anyway.
>>290215399Anna and Mikuru are the two most undetective like detectives.
>>290215422Because context matters, they were in a trap created by the villain.
>>290213962>>290214017>>290214098He was making a joke, calm the fuck down nigga
Luluka nails
>>290215232Come on don't be rude anon. Aoyama's artstyle is not the prettiest but at least it's consistent unlike that ugly ass episode. He didn't participate in that one.
>>290215430If you have to put that in your filename then those people probably have a point.
>>290215452they still might learn something new out of it? Unless Kurea told them the story for a hundred times and they are bored of it.
>>290215430>filenameLmao you read them like a book
>>290215430Eclipse Shadow is absurdly chuuni too, but at least it's practical to animate. If Cure Joker ever gets animated, I pity the poor people that have to deal with that.
>>290214912I remember watching CCS as a kid but not talking about it to other kids because it was for girls and I didn't want to be made fun of, but then later I found out every kids with nerdy interests was watching it.
Once both Kurea and Luluka are on the team they'll avoid dropping all the details and will keep being vague about any important information until the last 5 episodes, won't they?
Should I watch Luluka's show? Haven't watched a Precure show in year but the main girl is cute. Why is she in black though?
>>290214912I did never talk to anyone about powerpuff girls when I was a kid
>>290215401Even corrupted, Komugi was adorable.
>>290215431Eclipse is just a form to represent the final battle/climax.Twilight had something similar but it's not as pretty.
>>290215534I could see them being vague about the final boss's true identity and maybe even what Anna's deal is until the last 5 episodes (which would all be January episodes). I hope Mikuru at least stops being secretive about why she knows what she knows soon after the team unlocks the group attack.
>>290215577I really don't mind what they did with her gaogao form, it was actually a good moment for her and Iroha. But if the other alternative to keep the episode going was that boring ass fight with a bat then they should have done more with this idea.
>>290215637meant for >>290209271
>>290215552the edge
>>290215577I can't see her in your pic
>>290215655>meant for>when you deleted the original postthat's a spaghetti if I ever saw one.
>>290215639>that boring ass fight with a batThat was funny.
>>290215311Based on what they're suggesting lately Arcana Shadow is aready a super mode of Arcana with the power of darkness. I guess this new form will be her fully giving herself in to darkness before she's brought back to light.
>>290215691DRATS!MOOSE AND SQUIRREL!BLAST THEM!
>>290215679Wow, what's that from?
>>290215710Wonderful, sillyUnless you mean the sheet, some anon scanned the settei some time ago
>>290215692Arcana Shadow is a half assed half fallen form if anything and that's why she doesn't have a finisher.Eclipse Shadow were she discards her Precure name entirely is the probably the real deal dark form too bad her episode is by Aoyama.
>>290215735>setteiOh right, I forgot about that. Thanks.
>>290215687I think I have the stupid
>>290215748>fallen formWhat is that supposed to be and where are you getting that she doesn't have a finisher from?Shadow isn't purifying anything so why would she use one?
>>290215759You're not stupid, cutie pie.*tickle tickle*That pink dwarf that's babysitting you however...
>>290215748>that's why she doesn't have a finisher.She doesn't have a finisher because what is she going to finish? The monsters? She has no reason to destroy them in this part of the plot. The Cures? Well they can't be "finished" can they?The Arcana Star Rain is enough even if it's just a special attack.
>>290214941Hotbayashi
>>290214941Her episode when?
Arcana Star Rain is fucking garbage. The hit rate is low and even when it hits, it's either deflected or tanked. No wonder she jobbed to Usanoir.
>>290215691I've wasted so much of my dna back in 2024 because of her
Anyone knows if that channel making videos of 4chan threads in japanese is still making /pc/ videos? I remember a couple of them months ago but I don't have the link to the channel anymore.
Stop calling Precure a baby show. It's for grown-ups too. Even my ojii-san watches them. He even regularly takes me to kig shows.
>>290216041How much does your ojii-san pay you?
>>290215185>Kanade: "Jackpot..."
>>290216064umm I don't know what you mean by that but he always treats me to Precure gummies and I always share them with him
>>290216108Koba...
>>290216186We need another real green cure.
WHAT'S YO MAMA'S MIDDLE NAME?!
>>290216198She never said thatNot even once
>>290208957Cute like the normal form! I'll give Mikuru at least a dozen grandchildren!
>>290216108I love this
>>290209098The guy's daughter doesn't care but he's using her as an excuse to meltdown about everything dark happening Smart, I'd do the same thing
>>290216322Hurt by >>290216315 ?
>>290209098His kid would have a heart attack if she watched a Disney movie, imagine this kid seeing Jafar or Hades
Which Cures secretly want to be babies again? Based on vibes I'd say Mashiro and Kokone
>>290213122I really hope the movie features one gag with Wink and the Detectives. She already was involved in detective episodes in Idol, she'd be a natural addition to the gang.
>>290209098>>290209246t-b-h I think the whole "Dyspear scared little girls" thing came from a GoPri staff that also had a daughter that was terrified of her.Little girls don't care about stuff like "oh it's just going to be 2 eps" or "oh, surely the pretty cure will make out alive", this is like one of the first media they're ever watching so they don't even have expectations in the first place.
>>290216436All the Yes5, and the Smiles
>>290216108Interesting
>>290216479damn you just reminded me of the Smile episode where they get turned into toddlers
>>290214801Magical girls have perennially suffered from being highly appealing to little boys without being something they can be open about enjoying. I'm happy they let Wakana-kun slip in there, it must have taken a lot of courage to send that in.
>>290216436Does Anna not count because she's too much of an open baby for mama?
>>290216535That was my favorite episode.
>>290215527Here in Brazil everybody talked about Sakura just fine, it was the Pokemon equivalent for girls (since both shows were airing at a similar period).
>>290216633I think Smile has a lot of memorable episodes in general. Like the relay race one where everyone cried at the end including me
Happy Birthday Kome-Kome!Post cute pics and say something nice about this precious rice fairy!
>>290216811I want to give her a big hug
Happy 61st birthday, Ikue Otani.
>>290216873Happy Birthday Pikachu~
>CCS mentioned>Muh seiyuu autism>Pokemon mentionedYup.
>>290209098>>290216457>>290209246You guys have to remember the target audience is 4 year olds, they literally sell precure branded diapers.desu, this whole season feels like the worst of all worlds>try to appeal to older komodo/big friend audience with mysteries>can't make the mysteries too complex>try something novel with an "enemy" cure since noble phantom thief is legible within the genre convention of detective pulp (esp in JP)>Forced to continually leaven the conflict to avoid making viewers miserable, resulting in a rushed arc and sawtooth toneArcana Shadow is especially bad because the writing isn't even wrong, a 15-16 with a narrow support network, strong reasoning, incomplete information and weak emotional skills would probably make many of the same mistakes Arcana actually does, she tries to bank against externalities while failing to fully account for the externalities of her own actions, so her reasoning becomes pure in abstract and brittle in reality.It's a good set up for conflict space and Kurea/Luluka having a shallow relationship isn't itself a flaw either if it's specifically leveraged as a plot point but proper execution and pathos needs more stable pacing that isn't interrupted for >5 minutes of magical girl stock footage. I think it's really telling that the Hanninda have been literally scaled down in power for the last two months because there's simply no time to have a MOTW fight and also a mystery and also develop Luluka (and later Kurea).idk, it just feels like the writers wanted to write for a general/marginally older audience and produce something tonally, in the vein of CCS but can't fully commit. Like, I can imagine and 8 year old really liking Arcana Shadow but I think for a toddler, precure fighting and then Arcana getting even more edgy is probably just a bit scary.
>>290216873Also the wolf kid from heartcatch
>>290217109>precure branded diapersDon't lie.
>>290217116She voiced the kid Tsubomi adopted?
>>290217192Tsubomi's son yes
>>290217109I didn't bother reading your post but I'd probably care more about Kurea if she wasn't the most boring Cure since Chiyu.
>>290217109>she tries to bank against externalities while failing to fully account for the externalities of her own actions, so her reasoning becomes pure in abstract and brittle in reality.the fuck is this word salad
>>290217254If you didn't bother to read it how did you know he was taking about Kurea?
>>290217330chatGPT post
>>290217179There are no branded diapers but there are pantsu which is maybe what he mistook them with. Or maybe he's referring to disposable underwear you could get in convenient stores (which on the packaging also says are not diapers). There are Precure fabric I think, which you could sew into cloth diapers, but no there are no disposable diapers.
>>290217330Maybe it makes sense in his head.
>>290217372He was? I just made a guess.
>>290217372Got him gud...
>>290216873I always wondered why I've been rock hard seeing Pikachu.
>>290217454>seeing>not "hearing"That just means you're a furry.
>>290217403>There are no branded diapersYeah that's what I thought.The image of throwing a diaper stamped with Precure full of piss and shit into the garbage is too much, even for Toei.
>>290217527I suppose you are right.
I wonder how exactly they are going to fix Luluka in 2 episodes. Meroron seemed like a hopeless case too 2 episodes before she properly joined the team, but Nana stepped in out of almost nowhere and managed to do it. At the very least, I can't see Kurea fixing Luluka by herself since there's definitely some reason Luluka is so driven to defeat Eclair.
>>290217604So you're the one spamming these abominations in here for days now.
>>290217625She will find out that she was tricked by monocle guy and Anna will talk some sense into her.
Hag sex
>>290217650Posting 2, at most, is spam now?
>>290217625Don't forget that the movie revealed Blanca but Luluka still seems a bit stand-offish by her own.She's either going through an arc where "she joins but her heart isn't 100% there" (like Yuni in ST) or that's her new default even after joining.
>>290217681Don't think even for a second that your sordid routine here goes unnoticed.
>>290217689I wonder if the movie will have a legit character development for Luluka, I can imagine the western fanbase complaining that they feel excluded since we're only going to get it around January next year.
>>290217595There are actually branded tissue paper though, the kind that's rolled around a cardboard tube which I imagine is for general use and not the task you'd associate with tissue paper rolled around a cardboard tube. I sure hope that's the case for that particular product.
>>290217704>your sordid routine here goes unnoticedAnon, you are just admitting to looking at them.
>>290217749Yeah, it's generally impossible to ignore thumbnails in a thread.
>>290217736The ST movie had Lala and Hikaru go through some, didn't it?
>>290216873oh it is Hana's VAand Candy-kuru too I guess
>>290215120Is Luluka really the type to play hard to get?
>>290217738I forgot about that...I think they've stopped licensing Precure to such products. The last one I saw was GoPri's.
>>290217794Yeah, I would say it's required viewer since I kinda remember Lala having a lack of episodes in cour 3, so basically the movie acts as the "Lala focus episode" if you squint enough.Like obviously both Hikaru and Lala bond with the alien, but Lala starts with the wrong foot so we get to see more bonding between them.

>>290220253Mafuru talks about the precure and what they do and the camera pans over their faces when she says "Children who have nobody to rely on".All in all, it's a strange set up. Kurea hasnt seemed to have mentioned school a single time. She's just mentioned the patisserie and detective work. Two girls travel across the world just to stop usonoir from stealing big jewel. I mean some cures dont mention their parents at all and one can have a missing parent (Himari in kira or Hinata with her mom) but it doesnt mean they are dead or anything. But Kurea and Luluka's situation is just too strange. And it's probably why it's the only thing Luluka has on her mind right now. Her bond with Kurea is the most familial thing she has right now. Not necessarily gay. Also context clues in the episode do indicate Mafuru is the Kobayashi grandma despite the new hair: Mikuru's reaction, similar hair/hat to Anna, bad at drawing, Kurea's exposition within the episode had her use the same design from Mikuru's flashbacks.ran over
>>290220196They didnt reveal it. They just give context clues and strange situations that beg the question. And then an anon in this thread will get mad if you ask this about the SDs despite it being obviously starnge and he brings up cures that didnt have parents show up at all in their seasons as some sort of justification.SD since the start had a very blatant theme about about how important the bond mothers have with with their kids are
Kurea STINKS
Uh oh, the bunny is loose.
>>290220656I always felt this was like telling a woman that she smelled bad
>>290220704My friend in highschool gave his gf some perfume and she got pissed. Shit was funny.Speaking of that I wonder if Kurea and Luluka will call him jett senpai
>all the agency people we have seen so far are fucking Japanese and have spoken no english outside of AMAZINGbro what's the point of London
>>290220775Huh? They were in London?
>>290220836That's what the story said at least. Kurea and Luluka knew Japanese so well.
>>290220375>>290220542I thought that but I'd figure that they would have come out and said it if they were orphans.
I'm going to see if I can buy precure merch today. A tour guide yesterday, a more casual one, was bitching to me how Japan is fucked population wise at the moment and he's pissed at his son for getting a vasectomy after having only one kid. I wonder if she watches precure.Makes me wonder how long we will have stuff like Precure or kids programming there but I'm sure he was just having a bad week.
That was weird moment.
>>290220980They're probably waiting for Mikuru's arc so they can drop the whole "oh we have dead parents too" btw
>>290220640>SD since the start had a very blatant theme about about how important the bond mothers have with with their kids areIf that's the case then why haven't any moms shown up?
>>290221063The dude sounds a bit nuts so I wouldn't worry about it.
>>290221089For the cures? Because they are all dead. But in the earlier cases pre episode 15 there were a lot of "this tiara was from my mother. this painting was from my mother. my mother took my cat to the salon. my mother bought me this stuffed rabbit". Stuff like that.
>>290220776The idea of him screaming "THE FUCK WAS THAT" right in front of frowning mipple makes me laugh
>>290221125The population does seem relatively older compared to an American cities so far. Also some girls do dress like anime girls here and they cant pull it off. Saw someone dressed in a Luluka-like black dress but she was a bit too chunky for it.
>>290221127If that's true then why would they have a theme about moms and the bond they have with their kids if the Cure's mothers are all dead? It's kind of rubbing it in their face, isn't it?
