Are Luluka and Kurea, you know?
>>291398728We are moving from one liar (Luluka) to another liar (Mikuru)
>>291398728It was alright but the plot is finally approaching
>Cute Hinata thread or Heartfart shitpost girlThis is the thread

>>291398696NTAIt can be, though it can also mean physical health issues, or less commonly it can just be a healthy person being low on sleep or having had a very stressful day.t. had depression since 2000 and have had trouble holding on to my limited and very shaky sanity since 2011 or so

>>291398728It was good but don't expect Mikuru to have much focus.
>>291398782Anything is a hole if you try hard enough.
Her returnAlso who´s mum va?
*pushes u*
Stop using HibiKana and other hotties for your weird schism
>>291398853He doesn't watch precure anyway
Thoughts on this butt?
>The biggest case in Mikuru's detective career is Anna going back in time and the promise to help Anna return home>The biggest case in Luluka's detective career is Kurea's true identity being the king and world ending prophecyI can see why the anime groups Luluka with Mikuru and Kurea with Anna. On the surface it is 4 detectives working together but it is actually 2 pairings working with each other. Narrative wise, Mikuru and Luluka are in the role of detective while Anna and Kurea are both the biggest secrets Mikuru and Luluka need to solve to finish the cases and also happen to be their most important partners while also being the answer/hint to the truth in their hearts. Plot wise, this means Mikuru and Luluka is positioned to be troubled girls with uncertainty in their hearts. In short, "It's destiny, it's love"
>>291398709Thanks for the non-spam thread again.
the episode is sharing the same two names in the credits as a sailor moon episode from 30 years ago
Who´s final boss?
>>291398985I really loved Sailor Moon SuperS's first ending song.
>>291398985>look at this worthless fact I found on my xitter feed!
>>291398985Incredible
Started Hirogaru Sky.Were people complaining about the 'tumblr' noses? I can see a schizo bringing this up when it aired.
>>291399038The red splotch around it makes it look like her nose was cut off.
perhaps the old hag has amnesia
>>291399038they look funny
>>291399038Some people made fun of it calling clown noses.I get what they were going for and you do get used to it, but I think they could've made it look cuter? The cheek blushes in Meitantei look attractive and it's a similar effect.
>>291398985Interesting, well thanks

>>291398985I'm surprised there hasn't been a season that retreaded Sailor Moon outside of Akira/Yukari.
To all the /pc/ anons that have killed themselves over the years: life is horrible and you did the right thing. I hope you're all in a better place now and watching Star Detective from up in Heaven. It is the best season.

>>291399420Smart
I was hyped for Cure Majesty but she ended up being underused.
>>291399319Guess you lost
>>291399451Not growing up permanently was the biggest problem.There were meta reasons, characters like Haa-chan and Komekome had eletronic touchscreen toys, meanwhile Elle-chan was just a plushie toy like Chiffon, Hagtan, etc.This matters because while you can raise the characters in eletronic toys like tamagotchis, they probably didn't want to make the plushies "outdated". Granted you could argue that Toei finally crossed this like with Arcana Shadow becoming Arcana, but they're compensating with the movie and possibly another transformation in the TV series down the line (just a theory for now).
>it took 36 episodes
>Oh yeah, we forgot the plot. Time to make Mikuru start acting suspiciously because we're out of time.
>>291399508The Laura tamagotchi could also grow legs and become LaMer.
>>291399542She already acted suspiciously in the flashback episode. So it's consistent.
This spoiler is a booby trap. A wizard casts a curse on you: from now on, before you watch a new episode of Precure, you have to cuddle with a /pc/ anon. You will spontaneously combust if you try to watch an episode without snuggling an anon. This is a lifelong enchantment with no cure.
>>291399554Few people know that the Laura leaks from the toy actually first came from /pc/. Japan was commenting in our /pc/ screenshots.

Actual Precure-affecting news>TOYS R US EXITS JAPAN AFTER 35 YEARS, AS DECLINING CHILD POPULATION CONTINUES TO CRUSH REVENUEHoly SHIT.
>>291399542Mikuru has been consistently reacted strangely to keywords like fake/lie on multiple occasions
>>291399667I wonder how much that will affect Precure.
>>291399667Wait why are Japanese children dying in such massive numbers that the population is dwindling?
>>291399690It's called... growing up.
>>291399690It's a chain reaction because adults aren't making enough kids, magical batter, liquid of the eden, big bang, baby making sex.
>>291399225Anon, that's bestiality.
>>291399667NOOOOO I LOVE TOYS R US>>291399690It's because they're all getting isekai'd into harem shows.
>>291399744
>>291399702Um, okay...? Even though people grow up, the child population usually does not decline because the human race grows faster over time. It's kind of funny how people rush to be snarky even when what they're saying is actually pretty fucking retarded.
>>291399674Pretty much this. Also seeing her grandmother. She seems to have a very visceral reaction to not being truthful to people.
>>291399776Have you not seen the global birthrate over the past two decades?
>>291399780She's a very emotional girl who can't hide her feelings
>>291399674I know that she reacted to the lady that may or may not be her grandma but when did she react weirdly to lies? That's more Anna's thing.
>>291399799>5bn 1987>6bn 2000>7bn 2011>8bn 2022The 6 -> 7 and 7 -> 8 jumps were still the fastest in human history
>>291399744JettMiku is about to start
>>291399776>the child population usually does not decline because the human race grows faster over time. You need to look up Global Birthrates, that trend is reversing, big time.This isn't just a Japan problem, this is a worldwide phenomenon. Other countries fight it with immigration, but even the countries people migrate from are having this problem. Effectively, there will eventually be no more market for kids because the next generation will be much smaller.
>>291399835Oh hell no Mikuru is not addicted to fairy dick

>most reasonable explanation for stuff in this episodeMafuru didn't really react to Mikuru because she's aware that Mikuru wants to hide her relation to her for reasons, and Anna somewhat recognized Mafuru because Mafuru resembles her mom (due to being her great grandmother) or she saw an old picture.>Less plausible but not quite full schizoMafuru did not react to Mikuru all that much because she is not her grandmother but rather her grandmother's ex-partner/estranged family member and isn't all that aware of Mikuru's existence despite Mikuru being aware of hers.Anna recognizes Mafuru instinctively because her mother really is Mafuru or maybe a magic clone.>full schizoMafuru does not remember Mikuru despite being her grandma because her Makoto Jewel was messed with.Anna recognizes Mafuru instictively because she is outright her reincarnation or born from her Makoto Jewel (Mafuru's jewel is orange, and Anna has orange hair...)I'm looking forward to see how all of the loose ends are tied up in the next 14 episodes.

>>291399969*smooch*goodnight sick bitch
>>291399667Precure, which is specifically designed for children, will also face such a day, but at least it is safe until its 25th anniversary.
>>291400060>or she saw an old picture.Geez but she didn't see her mommy old picture when she was starting to go to school to see how she looked in uniform as it's perfect japanese mom-daughter tradition?Why she would recognise her greatgrandma but not her own younger mother if Mikuru is the one?
>>291400060Bot post
>>291400097Maybe Anna always knew Mikuru was her mom, but yeah, I can't really buy that. Even if she were smart enough to figure out something like that, I can't see her hiding it better than Luluka knowing that Kurea was Cure Eclair right in front of her mom. She doesn't seem good enough at keeping secrets for that.
>>291400092Precure is perfectly fine.
Please remember that want to keep the answers to the mysteries easy enough for kids to understand
>>291400145No the fuck it ain't After SD's decent execution we're getting at least two years of kiddy gay shit because aisuslut was legit lightning in a bottle and attracted too many adults.
>>291400142I suppose Anna is Makoto Jewel personification from future who became Mikuru adopted daughter is the most sensible plot for now.But from other side in many scenes especially in reactions Mikuru and Anna act in same way too much to not be related.
>>291400178Literally no one figured out what the episode 13 prophecy meant until episode 31 happened.
>>291400185This post was google translated
>>291400182Not sure if the next season will have enough time to react, I would say in 2028 is more likely but then that's the next anniversary season so I'm not 100% sure that they would want to save a gag/SoL season for that? Or maybe BECAUSE 2028 is the anniversary season they have decided to go with something gag/SoL-centric for 2027, it helps to balance out the unorthodox VS orthodox.
>>291400217>This post was google translatedYours too.
>>291400236The anniversary seasons tend to be the unorthodox for one reason or another: Fresh (at least compared to the first 5 seasons), HaCha, Hugtto, and Hirogaru Sky (maybe not quite as much as HaCha and Hugtto were, but I'd say the hero theme and the lack of focus on villains make it relatively unorthodox). Wonderful, Idol, and Star Detective have all been relatively unorthodox, so it's possible that the anniversary season will be relatively orthodox to compensate instead. I guess that might depend on if the next season is also relatively unorthodox or not.
>>291400236I can see a fun anniversary season to kickback and relax with a big climax. Shit, the anniversary season could be a whole crossover of the franchise with the 100th cure being the center of it.And a tickle tickle for Komugi.
>>291400296As of this point in Star Detective, there are 91 mainline Cures. The 100th mainline Cure would have to be a midseason of the 25th season unless they save it for the 26th season for some reason. They could, in theory, have 8 cures for next season and then have the 25th season lead be the 100th Cure, but it's generally too difficult to balance that many main characters. Most seasons with at least 5 Cures don't really balance screentime evenly except for Yes 5, and balancing 8 is much harder than that.

lmao my sides
>>291400283they're experimenting more since Tropical Rouge, DP took a pause, and then HS went at it again and they never stopped since then. Ideas and themes are slowly running short, plot points as well, so expect them to make more "unhortodox' seasons in the future to stay afloat, which to me is a good thing but some anons will flip their shit at it because they're traditionalists2028 anniversary season will either be very experimental, more than what Hirogaru sky was, possibly giving us a special kind of MC (but nothing too far from the usual good girl or else toys won't sell) and setting, or it will be a big celebration and that would be introduced by 2027's themes being birthdays and wishes of all previous seasons like Happiness and Hugtto tried to be, but better, with more references. Or maybe, a soft reboot of the franchise and the original Futari wa. Then we will get a great season (post anniversary seasons never miss) and then maybe some more basic seasons, but still relatively experimental Precure could do a lot of fun and new stuff with its core formula, but children being its main demographic and fan's attachment to the franchise as it is holds it back
>>291403256'28 will be heaven precure
>>291403256Moron
>whoa the hanninda is really strong this episo-top kek
one thing to expect is that, if Precure runs for at least 15 more years, and it's not too unlikely, expect to see the food theme being used two more times, I wonder how. Also in less than 10 years, they will start to use AI, it's inevitable, not to make a whole season of course
>>291403270that was Hirogaru's hinted theme, and to a way less extent, Doki's. Skearhead was literally the devil and lived underground, King Jikocchu was a demon corrupting people's souls into doing sins
>>291403287Using AI to gen video is a meme due to how expensive it is and all the consistency and quality problems.A much better approach I've seen recently is giving AI control over 3d software and then rendering the final product.
So... why is Nijee ALWAYS disgusting himself as a woman?
>>291403379he's a literal fairy. Goemon is a fairy too, but the other kind
>>291403352current AI for big anime isn't worth it, but advancements in the next 5 years are going to be huge. They will use it for the animation sweatshop part, storyboards and most of the screenwriting will still be done by humans, I guess it will be by law. Toei has enough money to make their own generative AI too, and they will use it to brainstorm some ideas or make cheap merch
themes left that are still somehow acceptable for little girls>Halloween/Yokais>robots (the cute ones serving you dinner)>Japanese folklore >circus, will get paired with something else>environmentalism, as a main theme this time>amusement parks>balet>dolls and toysof course dinosaurs and ninjas are badass themes, but not too likely for a show like precure. Any other themes?

Serial Experiments Precure
Even if he doesn't catch the real reason he still notices Mikuru isn't acting like normal and ties to lighten her mood, how cute!Also, him accepting Anna and Mikuru was really out of the line but at least he has stuck by them by thick and thin, always providing whatever support as both inventor and companion. Hope we can see them together once Anna returns to 2027, as family or otherwise.
>>291403590>Hope we can see them together once Anna returns to 2027, as family or otherwisewe absolutely will, the ending said so

>>291403152ah sorry *hihg
https://x.com/m_katsuhira/status/2106543746129289695Schizo theories all around. Dont know why when eclair was played super straight
hehe
>>291403707>Mikuru being secretly one of London's fairieshuh, I like the theory, it's different
>>291403707Mafuru acting like she met Mikuru for the first time when they're supposed to be related is weird no matter what kind of mental gymnastics you do
Mikuru and Luluka are 100% human. Anna being half fairy might make more sense
kek Mikuru being a fairy solves so many of the weird points with the plot, I'm in on the theory
>>291403707>some retard on twitter said something!!!For the love of god at least try make your own theories you lazy retard
>>291403743Unless she simply knows it's not her
remember Shalala?
>>291403707Cure Eclair was really straightforward, but the twists after that aren't really. The true nature of the episode 13 prophecy and the whole third race thing definitely caught people off guard, and it's definitely weird that Mafuru didn't really seem like she knew Mikuru when the other way around is obviously true. Mafuru acting is definitely plausible, but then that brings up the question of why she would feel the need to act in the first place. They are obviously building up to something with Anna having a Makoto Jewel because of unconventional means that isn't obvious at first glance, and I suspect next episode may have a vague hint towards some Anna-related mystery. I suppose we're in the part of the show that focuses on Anna and Mikuru's mysteries though I wonder when the answers will be revealed.
>real Mikuru is still in LondonCan't wait to see our notMikuru's fairy design
Mafuru IS Mikurus mom, and Annas grandma, but she doesnt know it because Anna hasn't altered the timeline to make her reproduce with _________ to create Mikuru yet. Its a closed loop time paradox. Everything before and after SDpre requires SDpre to happen in order to exist.
Anna would notice her own mother's name or at least, something, anything, so maybe Mikuru is the actual fairy's name
>>291403892Mafuru's like 60, she would've had Mikuru when she was in her late 40's in that case.
>>291403900It's kind of funny how many people just outright think Anna wouldn't know her mom's first name and maiden name. That's technically possible I suppose, but it would have to be intentionally kept a secret.
>>291403379>why is Nijee ALWAYS disgusting
>>291403892probably no, too complexMafuru knows something, she's either pretending not to know Mikuru or knows that it's not her
Uh you guys realize she had friends and a normal school life before she met Anna and this whole thing started right
>>291403952We don't exactly know her life before she transferred in other than "She was with grandma in London", so that doesn't really disprove anything.
>>291403493isekai fully to fairy worldwitchcrafting (crafting magical artfacts with magic or simple crafting in general)alchemy (you can sell a lot of interesting toys with this theme)fairy tales, nurseryorigamijournalism club
ok so Mikuru is a fairy but also not a fake Mikuru, meaning Mafuru is ALSO a fairy, meaning Anna is FULL fairy too but doesn't know yetand this is why they didn't had precure, or guns, in London to stop it from being attacked by evil qilfrey
>>291403919Mafuru is also a fairy, everyone's a fairy.
>>291403856I only remember evil Shalala turning against her friends.What a twist that was in HS hmm? Pure cinema.
>>291403438It will absolutely not be worth it even in 5 or 10 years. AI animating a 3D world is 100% possible currently and will be even better in 5 to 10 years so I can see AI 3D becoming the norm.
>>291403672Did your arcana shadow come with a pre-cut hole?
Ah, nice, now EVERYONE in the fucking show is a fairy. You guys are becoming professional Precure writers.
>>291403672have fun Anon, it was a very good episode
This is stupider than the Eclair fusion theory
But the school principal knows Mikuru though
>>291404033Everyone in precure is a fictional character
>>291404033I know right, thank you>>291404062Because he's a fairy too
>>291404064SHE'S REAL TO MEEEEE
>>291404033You mean like a magical creature or like gay? Because they are all gay.
I can feel it! Before or on the episode group attack is revealed, the true nature of the miracle that ties together Anna and Mikuru will be made manifest.
Well if they're all fairies then adult Mikuru never had sex with a man. I'm willing to embrace this theory to see the complete defeat and utter humiliation of hetshits.
>>291404109No explicit statements of relationship, just a heavily implied solution to the problem in a post credit still shot in the finale. Everyone will know, but anon will be able to say it's not canon forever.
Ohayou~
>>291404107Good job detective!
>>291404181Hinata and Ran seems like a good combination. Nothing against Minori who I also like, but those two seem like they could be related, or best friends before precure or something.
Just a reminder that staying in human form drains energy from the fairy, since it's not their natural form and they can never stays indefinitely in human form.
>>291404236do you even have any evidence of that?
>>291404236There doesn't seem to be a time limit though. I think it's more like a concentration thing.
>>291404254Multiple.They return to their original forms whenever they're exhausted.Watch more Precure.
I have faith that Murayama won't betray the yuri alliance
Yuri is kill. No more yuri.
>>291404278>staying in human form drains energyis one thing>they return to fairy form when they're exhaustedis a completely different thing
>>291404289BASED again
>>291404278You tend to lose your concentration when you're exhausted. It could still be a matter of concentration with no energy requirements at all. You should list Jett's addiction to high calorie sweets as evidence of your claim though.
>>291404236Jett only turns back into human form if he's caught off guard, so this might be a case where fairies don't really need energy to stay human.
>>291404032No.>>291404056It was. What are you hiding, Mikuru...
>>291404289>>291404341>the final boss is the anti-yuri who is destined to get beaten up and purified
>>291404289>>291404341>yuri haters are villainous gay menI knew it
>>291404308?The two things are true at the same time.Ultimately they'll always, at some point, revert back to their fairy form to regain energy.
>>291403672Cute Mashutan. I was thinking of getting her a bean but I could just do that
>>291404346>>291404351Jett is hundreds of years old, I think he has a good control of his mimetic powers.Also he needs to be a human most of the time, since he's the receptionist for the store.
*purified your yurihate with 4 lily rods ultimate attack*
>>291404358Whoa anon this a blue board!
>>291404358>Kurea's POV
>>291404424"Good morning, Kurea..."
>>291404471Imagine waking up to this...
>>291404383I do want a Mashutan plush badly, but it'll have to be later in time. The Mashu in the picture is from a sticker sheet thing I bought at an import store.
>>291404236What about the Phantoms and Jett then? They do seem to have impressive powers but don't quite seem to be bottomless wells.>>291404403Going at least by his human form being younger than the other SD fairies who have shown the ability to assume human form and his personality Jett might be relatively young for fairy standards, through he is a genius after all.Also, his main motivation to keep human form at most times is that he finds people seeing his floating yellow kitty form to be absolutely embarassing
>Luluka, whose symbol is a lily, is loved by Goemon, a man among men>Those who hate Luluka are Nijee (crossdresser faggot), Ageseine (ever-seething female), Usonoir (delusional self-centered fool), and Decchi (evil manchild)I'm noticing
Cure Mystique? More like Cure My Stick
>>291404598>What about the Phantoms and Jett then?Usonoir reverted to his fairy state permanently after losing all his powers to the Cures. The same happened to several villains in the franchise.My point is: human forms are not forms the fairies can sustain indefinitely.
Obviously, Mikuru and Anna are both born from 2 seperate halves of Mafuru's Makoto Jewel which will break apart in a future episode as Mafuru sacrifices herself. One half gets blasted into the past to become Mikuru, and the other piece gets blasted into the future to become Anna. They will be the first set of mainline Cures that are actually sisters ... sort of.
>>291404659Usonoir never had a human form
>>291404064Plus a couple manzai comedians.
>>291404601Luluka is also liked by Mashutan (loving big sister/mom figure), Shushutan (Shushu), the other detectives (gold hearted girls with joy and whimsy), Jett (good hearted prodigy) and children... Perhaps you need to have a dark putrid soul to hate Luluka.
>>291404675He could if the wanted, he opted out for a giant menacing robot body though.
>>291404662>They will be the first set of mainline Cures that are actually sisters ... sort of.I believe the sister route more than the mom/daughter route.
Back when the episode was live I couldn't help but find it funny how rather sinister Jett looked in he new movie clips in the OP...He might not be able to take the Star KiraRing Brooch apart to study how it works but he surely can partake in some other delightfully devilish activities.
>>291404737Oh please, usonoir's armor has been in his hand for like 10 episodes now
Pochitan is getting an early start on spooky season.
>>291404379I mean, one can make the argument that anything a person, human or fairy does is "tiring" being alive in itself is something that consumes energyBut even if I go by that, the point is if it's something that can affect you enough for it to not be sustainable, like how wearing clothes no matter how lightly objectively means we are carrying extra weight and losing more energy, but we can keep doing it 24/7 without feeling tired because of it and most people won't even sleep nakedWhen talking about a special transformation ability, how tiring could be? As far we know it can be as tiring as wearing a hat, if it consumes energy, it certainly is not in a way that matters for Jett's daily life
>>291404737He's not turning evil
>>291404722>I believe the sister route more than the mom/daughter route.Both are delicious...
>>291404687Right, forgot about those
I love cute glasses girls.
>>291404786
>>291404817Kokone tried her best.
>>291404792I'm not saying he is turning evil, I'm saying he can turn his attention to other equally interesting endeavors... Like the one in the file name.
>>291404798Yes they are.Nice doodle
>>291404817too cute to be scary
>>291404662>They will be the first set of mainline Cures that are actually sisters ... sort of.Komugi and Iroha, Mayu and Yuki.
>>291404786Usonoir counterpart
Cute.
>>291404890And strong.
>>291404926good lesson for kids
>>291404926Nana will eat Uta out
>>291404926What about cum?
>>291404968>>291404983bad lesson for kids
We need more Precure characters to dress like this.
>>291405020Agreed, Luluka and Kurea's fit are very nice.
>>291404983
How come Decchi and Mafuru both say AMAZING?
>>291405020There are three characters in the picture.
Nice to see how great Mikuru's art still is.>>291405035Not them.
>>291405051He's her old disciple gone rogue.
symmetrical dokkin!I wonder f anyone made this joke before!
Slightly creepy.
>>291405085I don't know but I like it for several reasons
>>291403743Mafuru could just be pretending? Also why does the school principal give Mikuru such leeway?
>>291405101Anna will never go back to her time, she'll fuse with Mikuru so she can later give birth to herself.
I guess it's obvious but it seems worth noting that Mafuru's eye color blended with Mikuru's eye color makes Anna's eye color.
Is Star Detective Pretty Cure better or worse than Animal Town Pretty Cure?
>>291405085Blessed by Mother Haa~
>>291405168yes
Poor little guy.
>>291404662That would be really dumb and convoluted though.
>>291405168>Animal Town Pretty Curewhoa an Anon actually slipped timelines
Bullying is wrong.
>>291405149she's not a magical lesbian baby let it go
>>291405206who is this angle supposed to appeal to?
>>291405180She is fine with it!
>>291405168Better
>>291405149Funny, you used to say Jett's eyes + Mikuru's eyes... after this episode is Mafuru's...I don't think you're being loyal to your conjectures at all.
>>291405149Get in line, Jett has been here since EP02
>>291405240>let me tell you what posts and arguments you've made in the past despite the fact that posters are anonymous and I do not actually know what posts or arguments you've made in the pastStop shitposting
Mikuru reacted to the old lady again.
>>291405085I like how Liko is sliding her finger into Mirai's buttcrack, so naughty
>>291405240They might not be, but I am and I will keep this one for as long as it might be useful!
>>291405253Fairy fuckers unite!
>>291405216You say that as if magical lesbian babies weren't already a thing in precure.
>>291405125So their heads can stay fixed in space while their bodies move like chickens?
Come on Mikuru, now's your chance.
>>291405265meds anon
Forgot it's spooky season
>>291405273Toei, make the girl that dreamed to be a detective and the fairy that dreamed of assisting a detective fall in love and my money is yours!
What if Mafuru is actually related to Tsubomi?
>>291398728IT'S HER KOBATIME
>>291398709Not anymore
The heck is Anna talking about?
>>291405345
>>291398985That's actually pretty neat thanks
>>291405361The flashback episode when they learn about Kurea and Luluka's past.
Mafuru could be the cure that saved Mikuru in the past. She is the only character Mikuru has reacted to we dont know about. I doubt it will be anything too outlandish. The circumstance that kept Luluka on the bad side longer after eclair came was really fucking stupid but pretty handwaveable.
>>291402373It exists still almost everywhere outside of America. Toys r Us is still big in Australia, even.Sears only managed to ruin the American franchise.
>>291398985WOAH. This is so cool, what episode was that a good one?
>>291405361She's saying that for the sake of the dumb kids.
>>291403256Cmoooon Mirror Cure season
>>291404786Why do they keep drawing her macho in the show anyway?
>>291402373>>291405387That was almost a decade ago. They're building a bunch of new stores in the USA now. I dunno if that's because business is actually better now or just investors making a gamble but they're coming back
>>291405393>>291405376Speedwatcher-chama...
>>291405432Glad to hear that. There used to be a really nice one near me that was shaped like a big blue toybox, and you would descend down a ramp to the entrance. Kids deserve to have that experience again.
And that ended up being a big nothing.>>291405376>>291405393No, it seems like there's something more going on there.
>>291405412Just watch Mahoako
>>291405416Bears are strong and/or she's actually the strongest. Little magical baby creature being the strongest magical being in the series universe wouldn't be unprecedented.
>>291405455Thanks for the signature.
Nice sneak attack by Mashutan.
>>291405361We don't know, that is the point. She says that it's from somewhere else that she remembers her afte Jett brings up the stuff about Kurea's memory IIRC.>>291405403Hnnnnngh, thank you... (˘˘)
>>291405458Murayama woudl never do this
And a piece of Dark Candy to chew on
>>291405485fluffy boobies
>>291405449>And that ended up being a big nothing.They might have ended that plotline but they started another one by hinting at Kurea having ties to the special fairies.
>>291405522Holy would.
>>291404926Idols are all the same
>>291405444I like when the three of them are sharing a shot, they are the best...Also, the neck of Anna's shirt now kinda reminds me of Jett's neck fluff.
>>291405416>Why do they keep drawing her macho in the show anyway?Pochitan... might be a boy.Pochiboy is a serious possibility.
>>291405361She must be someone prominent in the future too.
Getting a little tired of Mikuru hiding things. Besides that, the episode was a good one.>>291405544A big nothing.
Nice to see that Usonoir is going to start taking a hands-on approach to Makoto jewel hunting.
>>291405596Yeah the Mikuru vagueposting is starting to get annoying, little kids' shows always dripfeed the plot but Mikuru looking worried and not saying anything when Mafuru shows up and no one paying attention to it is stupid even by Precure standards
>>291405596grandma is hiding something too.... shes jealous of the miraculous duo... anna and mikuru.... because her own partner is.... dead..................
Also, Anna's mom is back for a few seconds.
>>291405682>she drives with a sidecar>the sidecar is EMPTY NOW.............
>>291405455I don't want lewd cures raping each other, I want mirror cures learning to live in human society while tormenting their other halves.
>>291405682>>291405596Mikuru's mom could've been Mafuru's fairy partner and she died, which is why Mikuru looks sad while seeing Mafuru and Mafuru doesn't recognize Mikuru (because she's only seen Mikuru's fairy form)
>>291405522I could never lewd Candy.That said,Let's see how many licks it takes to get to her center
>>291405682Do you have to post like an idiot? She didn't seem jealous. I wouldn't be surprised if her partner is dead thought. I would however be very mad if the one that's dead is Mikuru's grandma and she was a tease the whole time.
>>291405727Ok, drop the fairy form nonsense. We know the rules of a fairy having a human form in SD and Mikuru is too young.
>>291405727Alternatively Mikuru's mom was just a normal human and Mafuru's partner and ended up dying. What's 100% sure that Mafuru isn't Mikuru's mom because the woman holding Mikuru's hand in the opening looks nothing like her. Though how Mafuru doesn't recognize her own granddaughter is another bit of convoluted writing if that ends up happening.
>>291405672I wouldn't say so, Meitantei has a balance of foreshadowing and actually deliveirng on-screen, if you want to see a show that's just vagueposting the whole season then watch HS or WP.
>>291405759Instead of being dead I think Mafuru's partner might simply have turn evil... the "It's Decchi Agein" kind of evil
>>291405682>>291405727YES................ this makes too much sense to be a coincidence... And dead parents are definitely something toei will do too... like kokoro..........Ogod I just remembered the extra empty chair from episode 1 too. This is coming together
>>291405696You're on to something. As always Meitantei has top tier symbolism.
>>291405817Fuck off.
>>291404662If they do something overcomplicated like that it would both be confusing and stupid especially since they went out of their way to make the first half mystery extremely watered down and unimportant. Also I would hate it and cant speak for anyone else but that would rot with ao many people.
>>291405696The sidecar is for usonoir
>>291405785Wonderful was very good with its hints.
>>291405780You're assuming she doesn't recognize her. She could just not be making it personal because she knows people are watching them.
>>291405778>We know the rules of a fairy having a human form in SDWe actually dont. We dont know shit about fairies in this series unless it was told in the movie which I havent watched. They're waiting for the last 5 episodes to reveal anything. The very least we can have is more fun episodes like the past couple of ones but nope we have to go back to the retarded dripfeeding.
>>291405864It's ironic that he went to a halloween festival like this and it did turn out to be a costume in the end.
>>291405887>mental gymnastics
>>291405455Not really the same. I've been wanting an evil Precure season since forever and the structure would be like a season if it starred Dark Precure.
>>291405910Not as much mental gymnastics as assuming Mikuru recognizes her own grandmother but she doesn't recognize her in return. Mafuru probably isn't going to make a huge deal about it in the first place.
>>291405893They haven't revealed tons in a single place but you can piece the puzzle pieces like that one early episode about Jett opening the shop + the island episode + the fact that the villains are fairies + the reveal of the special fairies with different eye shapes + the fact that top of lily is a connection between humans and fairies + Mafuru being a detective but not really having an explicit partner so far (which means he probably died).There's a lot there, they just didn't connect the dots between A, B, C, D, etc all in a single place.
>>291405893Interview stated that you have to be an older fairy to have a human form.
>>291405828>As always Meitantei has top tier symbolism.
>>291405971>Mafuru being a detective but not really having an explicit partner so far (which means he probably died)
>>291405946>>291405887Mafuru = Mikuru's grandmother is probably just a red herring and she and Mikuru's mother were merely partners and then something happened to Mikuru's mother. Mikuru's going by a pseudonym (the Mikuru = Mirai theory is a good one) and Mafuru's probably only seen her baby pictures at best which is why she doesn't recognize Mikuru (if that even really is her real name)
Where the show made it confusing is that Mafuru and Mikuru's grandma look different from hairstyle and hair color (we have only seen grandma from behind in a flashback). We first see Mafuru who is like 8 years older than the flashback of loli Mikuru. But where the show made it confusing was that when Kurea talked about how famous Mafuru was, they use a frame that looked like Mikuru's grandma. So she might not be her grandma. But also the school principal knows Mikuru and does things for her while also knowing mafuru so mafuru could just be pretending and they have to keep their relationship secret.
>>291405919Seriously, an 'evil' season is overdue. Childish shit like taking candy (mwah) from babies or doing silly pranks while the 'heroines' try and fail to stop them is ripe for comedy. But Precure takes itself a little too seriously it seems.
If Mafuru is Mikuru's grandma then why couldn't she take five seconds to talk to her? She cares about the scattered fairies but can't care about her own granddaughter that's right in front of her and is obviously uncomfortable.>>291406021>the Mikuru = Mirai theory is a good oneNo.
>>291406074>If Mafuru is Mikuru's grandma then why couldn't she take five seconds to talk to her?This is an easy one. Because nobody talks to each other this season. "You want all the mysteries to be solved so easily in the mystery season?"Good chance the season ends and we just say the mysteries were fucking shit.
>>291406171>"You want all the mysteries to be solved so easily in the mystery season?"I can see those posts really hurt you
Dumb theory time.What if Anna recognized Mafuru from the OP scene?
>>291406196lol
>>291405919>>291406051We need a 2+2 setup starting with a duo of Cures and the villain side having 2 evil Cures that get redeemed at different timings for extra angst.>Second evil Cure: "I can't believe you joined them... I'll never be like you, never!" [she yells while half crying]A bit like Splash Star but everyone being full Cures.
>>291406171>Because nobody talks to each other this seasonYes they do.
>>291406196They're essentially the summation of what is turning SD into a weak season. The characters arent allowed to talk. Even basic questions until climax episodes. The characters are just standing still offscreen.
>>291405828I think Idol is going to reign for a while on that front.
>>291406271>They're essentially the summation of what really triggers my autism
>>291406330KEK
>>291406213I said this was dumb but I'm not exactly kidding about it. I just don't know how it would work, either Mikuru gets sent to the past or Anna was sent to the future maybe?
>>291406021>Mafuru = Mikuru's grandmother jfc they look identical, why do you complicate this in a show for little girls
>>291406074Going by Mikuru's expression when she sees Mafuru both in Kurea's memories and in current time their relationship seems to be in a rocky spot, the difference is that Mikuru wears her heart on her sleeve and so Anna and Jett can notice she is troubled while Mafuru does better at hiding her feelings through they seem to slip off a bit and it's likely no one on the Makoto Mirai branch knows her well enough to notice she is hiding something.
>>291406271You're only saying that because of the interview that said they talk off screen.
>>291406359If Murayama wants to keep fumbling sure.
>>291406074Because this season isnt good and is poorly written the more episodes that come out.
Shiruku can.
>>291406386So how do you explain Mafuru not recognizing Mikuru at all? We can go the hurrr durr amnesia route but that's shitty writing even in a kids' show.
>>291406386NTA but do they? Mikuru's grandma we only see from the back so far and she has completely different hair.
>>291406271I agree that it's a sign of a terrible writer to forcibly withhold information from the viewer. But what's really weird here is how mafuru doesn't know seem to know mikuru at all. Maybe that plays into it somehow.
>>291406252>We need a 2+2 setupAgreed>redeemedNo I don't want that, I want them to keep being a thorn in the protagonists side even if they stop working for the bad guys. But keep the extra angst and drama of the family splitting apart.
>>291406390>Mafuru does better at hiding her feelingsThat would come off as her being cold though and they usually don't do things like that with ladies in Precure.
>>291405449Mafuru's obviously Anna's real mom
Many ojii-sans fell in love here
>>291406456Or she is just pretending but that seems to be shit to do for the target demographic of the show. School principal is doing a lot of shit for Mikuru too and knows Mafuru. So why?
>>291406435Mafuru is putting on a face in front of her granddaughter and Mikuru is hiding their relationship. Considering there is someone targeting the london branch, it's easy to understand why they would do that and why she would send Mikuru to Japan.It's really that simple.
>>291406456>I agree me
>>291406549i am many
>>291406552We've already seen memories being locked away so maybe mafuru's were taken as well.
>>291405838To be fair, it would only be like the Doki thing except with time travel involved, kek. I'd accept it if it means Anna and Mikuru get to literally combine.
>>291406563That would make sense if Mikuru wasn't already a Cure.
>>291406440Go back to the episode with Kurea's memories and take a look at the representation of past Mafuru when her being the Proof of Dawn is brought up.
>>291406271I've been thinking the same thing, to be honest. For all the "detective" theme they've desperately been trying to do throughout the entire season, the main characters do a very surprisingly little amount of actual questioning of extremely basic shit like who is this person, why is Mikuru being so obviously aloof, etc. It's really getting to be annoying by now, so I'm glad other anons are waking up to it as well.
Oh the fag who wants a mystery show to spoil their final plot immediately is back
>>291406299>the conch represented Kaito wanting Kazuma's se(a)men in his assYeah, no season's beating that
>>291406503>evil cures without redemptionYeah no, Precure is about love at the end of the day. I only brainstorm theories based on what's actually possible, and I know Toei enough to have a feel or where they could and couldn't go (at least in regards of Precure).
>>291406563The show is very obvious about its tells. In this episode alone you had Nijee visibly shaken when the dangos were mentioned and Anna recognized Mafuru from somewhere, going as far as to point out that it wasn't just from the Decchi forced flashback.With Mafuru? Nothing. No side glances, no sly smiles, it was as if she met Mikuru for the first time. All we have connecting them is the similar designs and that's an easy red herring to throw at the audience.
>>291406552We just had an episode of Decchi casually walking around the Japan branch and actively stomping the London branch. Of course Mafuru wouldn't want to get Mikuru involved in that.>>291406623She became one after entering the boarding school.
>>291406663>immediatelyAnon, there are only a few months left. That's not immediately.
>>291406271An interview has already talked about how they try to not overwhelm the viewer with too much info at once, they prefer to spread the amount of info across episodes instead of forcing an entire season's worth of plot in a single episode, leaving the little girls confused or bored.
>>291406712>She became one after entering the boarding schoolThat's my point. Mikuru is always in danger now so why can't Mafuru speak up a bit now.
>>291406651The episodic plots are the ones that they solve, the ovearching plots are mysteries for the viewers to piece together.This has been something consistent for quite some time.
>>291406740These people are treating a kids show like it's an actual adult mystery season. It's pretty hilarious
>>291406762>>291406683Because she's being watched. Everyone in this show is being watched by the bad guys. It's obvious why Mafuru is pretending to not know her or why she's not staying around the branch.
>>291406683While Mafuru didn't show any real reaction to Mikuru, it's still a distinct possibility that she's simply playing along with Mikuru wanting to keep her relation to Mafuru a secret. There's a strong possibility that the school headmaster knows of Mikuru's relation to Mafuru which is why she goes to school there like she may have for Luluka and Kurea.
>>291406802They're only being watched when the generals are there, otherwise they're safe. There was no real reason for Mafuru to hide her identity, if she is Mikuru's grandmother.
>homoposting starts>posts about SD bad also pop up
>>291406878??
>>291406878
This season is doing a good job of having people discuss theories. I love a good mystery. Seems we'll be getting plot heavy next episode
>>291406802I don't think there's anything that implies that at all. Otherwise the bad guys would have known about the bring Eclair's memories back plan.
>>291406924Latecomers will never experience this joy. It's something you can only have by watching weekly with /pc/ during this year only.
>Uta I need to poop
Eyes on the prize, Kurea
>>291406714I don't think it's a bad thing for a show that's focused on mysteries and twists to save some for the final arc. I would be more worried if there wasn't semi-consistent dripfeeding throughout the season. There's definitely the risk of the finale arc having to answer too many answers at once and feeling rushed as a result of that, but there's still almost a third of the season left. Another recent Toei show Digimon Beatbreak had a shit ton of loose threads like 7 episodes before the end, and most of those got tied up satisfactory. That show was a lot worse about dripfeeding answers and worldbuilding throught the season than Meitantei was, so I'm not worried yet.
>>291406740I am pretty sure little girls are already fucking bored. They dont have to worry.
>>291407101I think you need to stop projecting your troon ass opinion onto little girls
>>291406456>I agree that it's a sign of a terrible writer to forcibly withhold information from the viewer.Mikuru having TOTAL SPEECH PARALYSIS again and again when Mafuru is around is one of the worst examples of this.Three quarters of the seasons in, this is inexcusable.
>>291407101If little girls weren't paying attention to meitantei then it wouldn't have the movie as a box office record.
>>291407158It is pretty standard and relatable behavior for a young girl though. It must be an emotional topic
>>291407159No, just the ratings are down year to year. Seems to be the toy sales too.
>>291406663Every day he has "that time of the day" when he starts this timeloop over and over.
>SDfag is panicking more people are shitting on the dumb writing
>>291406977What's luluka doing...
>>291407089>spoilerI don't care what garbage does.What's the point in having a mystery if you don't get to see what happens after the reveal? There has to be a proper conclusion to things or people are going to think about what could have been if it was revealed earlier.
It's only natural people will get antsy when the Arcana mystery was a flop. EVERYONE shit on that.
>>291407213>singular like the show has a single fanYou really can't debate without strawmaning, eh?
>>291407272Only one person is defending the dumb shit so far at this point. Cant wait to see the what turd Murayama writes for this mystery.
>>291407267Unless you're a long-running series like Detective Conan, most mystery stories have their climax near the end which is when the mystery gets revealed, be it books, movies, visual novels, etc.You're complaining about something that's common place.
>>291407186>It is pretty standard and relatable behavior for a young girl though.Relatable for psychopaths and rape victims maybe?It's extremely artificial in this cartoon.
>>291407089Anon please stop replying to dayzzz schizo.
>>291407268Ah yes. Can't wait to see what the "Luluka's world" of Mikuru's arc is going to be.
>>291407330The only thing you can possibly imagine would be difficult for someone to talk about is rape?
>>291407313>Only one person is defending the dumb shit so far at this point. You're delusional.
>>291407343>Luluka's worldThat was appalling, most people already chose to conveniently forget about this nonsense.
>>291407313This is as dumb as saying there's only one anon worried about how SD is going to wrap up the season.>>291407326>You're complaining about something that's common placeMaybe but them still going slow with the reveals makes it seem like the final cour is going to be crowded big time.
Well, that settles it. Mafuru raped Mikuru
>>291407343>>291407399>1 minStop samefagging, thanks.
>>291407330Oh shut up, you're that one faggot that keeps pretending that characters having feeliongs and personal agendas is a "plot hole" just because it isn't optimal to solve the situation.An action not being optimal isn't the same as bad writing, if the character has no agency then it just becomes mechanical and devoid of flavor.
>>291407431Oh no
>>291407430Is that also how Anna was born?
>>291406299This character is synonymous to shitposting these days.
>>291407343>Luluka's worldI didn't like that because it was an unsolvable mystery.That doesn't mean that Mikuru is going to get the same treatment.>>291407332Please stop trying to end discussions by accusing anons of being you.
>>291407430
>>291407343That hinged on the prophecy being vague and mysterious, so you could theorize it was going to be a "gotcha".There are no prophecies around Mikuru so they wouldn't pull that off again.
>>291407511>accusing anons of being you.Ironic.
>>291407511>That doesn't mean that Mikuru is going to get the same treatment.The world will go to 0. That can mean anything from a computer having a 0 on it to the universe ending. It's worthless.
>>291407492>Dd you have air conditioners in 1999?!
>>291407536We need to come back with the yuri posting.
>>291407572>The world will go to 0Oh, that. Yeah, at New Year's the world is changing from 1999 to 2000. What does that have to do with Mikuru?
>>291407625Careful, he'll meltdown about that too
>>291406252I think a Bart + Lisa dynamic works, they love each other but still argue and fight. It's an untapped pool of concepts to do evil or bad cures within the kodomo genre.
>>291407648Good!
>better pretend I'm mute in front of Mafuru the great for the next ten episodesSomeone give the writer an award.
>he's still going at itbro needs to have the last word, so childish
>>291407712You somehow have worse deductive skills than the kids watching the show, impressive.
>>291407735We all know Murayama isnt a good writer. He can do separation endings well, though ST's is vastly overhyped here.
>>291407752>You somehow have worse deductive skills than the kids watching the showObviously the kids have more patience than him too.
>>291407765Only to you, dayzzz schizo.
>>291407765sorry, meant for >>291407712
>>291407765>we all know>ST's is vastly overhyped here.Those two phrases contradict each other, first you pretend your opinion is common sense, then you admit Murayama is liked. You're dumb.
>>291407677>Bart + Lisa dynamic worksLol what does this mean exactly?
>>291407765>We all know Murayama isnt a good writerLook at what he's worked on for Precure and say that again.>https://prettycure.fandom.com/wiki/Murayama_Isao
I can't believe there actually are people who get confused by the idea that a mystery story has mysteries that require using clues to be solved
>>291407841He's just going to say they're all shit. He has a hateboner against him for some reason
>>291407841>Mahou, ST, and SDYou arent selling me here. Also you forget all the shit outside of precure nobody talks about because nobody cares about it.
>>291407841Anon, you really can't predict what his behavior is going to be after posting this? Probably some typical>all are shit! shit I say!He's a midwit pretending to be high IQ.
>>291407841>miracle leapIs that the one which everyone became Nodoka's backup dancer and waved miracle lights while watching Nodoka solo the boss?
>>291407712What?
>>291407815While Mahou and ST are agreed to be bland seasons here, Mahou's ending is good. ST's is good too but people act like it's an all time finale. It isnt.
>>291407878People complained about Doki for other reasons, but I don't remember anyone complaining about how Aguri's back story was shrouded in mystery until the end. I didn't come back to /pc/ until early Wonderful, so I'm not sure if the mysteries of other seasons were that complained about. I remember people having fun with Idol's Meroron mystery even if some didn't like how that got resolved.
>>291407924Not all ideas in a movie come from the main writer you know, if the movie director wanted to have a movie exclusive form because of promotion reasons (to incentivize people watching the trailer to go watch the movie), then Murayam just had to insert it.I think Miracle Leap is a good movie even if maybe not a good "crossover" movie. It's rare for Precure to do a groundhog day story like that.
If Mikuru isnt the mom, I'm not going to care about the separation.
>>291407878>a mystery story has mysteries that require using clues to be solvedI swear I'm not that idiot from earlier but Luluka's world didn't. It was impossible to figure that out.
>>291407712This, it makes zero fucking sense. There had better be a REAL GOOD FUCKING REASON why she's being intentionally mute for weeks and weeks, but there won't be. It will be a complete wet blanket shove under the rug dumb reason because they're rushed at the end and Maruyama has to wrap things up and forgot how to end it.It happens a lot.
>>291407765ST outperformed WP in all metrics btwMaho gets continuous stream of merch every year without fail. Also got 2nd season on it own unlike a mess like otona
>>291407924It was the last of the Spring All Star movies and one that most seemed to enjoy.
>>291407947>While Mahou and ST are agreed to be bland seasons hereNo it isn't.You really have to stop appealing to consensus when you know very damn well you're a minority here. When /pc/ does tier lists ST consistently gets rated well.
>>291400797>>291400684
>>291407947>While Mahou and ST are agreed to be bland seasons hereThe fuck? I've never seen anyone call ST bland, it has Lala for god's sake.
>>291408025Ah you just came back to your origins, you STILL fail to understand why the Precure franchise wouldn't have a cheap fanservicey scene even in a late timeslot.
>>291398709The whimpering sound Jett makes in this scene is adorableI kind of assumed that Mafuyu was the grandma but I guess not.
>>291408025You think it's going to be a good reason? It's going to be as simple as "Mafuru told me not to tell anybody" and that will be that.
It's basically 1 guy with super autism about the show not revealing everything + zzzfag being his cheerleader.Those faggots are so lame.
>>291408103It's possible there's a reason Mafuru and Mikuru feel obligated to hide it with Mikuru doing a worse job of it, but the possibility of Mikuru knowing about Mafuru but Mafuru not knowing about Mikuru in return is definitely open
>people expecting Mafuru's first face-to-face with the Precure gang to be "MIKURU, YOU, MAIDEN NAME MIRAI, ARE MY GRANDDAUGHTER" and are thrown for a loop when she doesn't do thatreal autism hours frfr
>>291407968>I'm not sure if the mysteries of other seasons were that complained aboutI don't remember any major complaints in Hugtto, ST, or HG in regards to the main mysteries going on.
>>291408031>has to measure against WP for successlol>Maho second seasonThe team was able to get together and Mofurun is popular. >gets continuous stream of merch every year Nope. It got a reprint of a toy this year cause they had some production quality fuck up during mirai days apparently.
>>291408110The show did end up thinking of pretty good reasons as to why the London Agency didn't tell Jett shit about Kurea and why Luluka hid Kurea from London in the first place, so I think there's good reason for it.
>people expecting Mafuru's first face-to-face to reveal anything at all.real autism hours frfr
>>291408148So it's more than one anon? That's progress I guess.In all seriousness, I'm sure that you aren't paying attention because the discussion has gone beyond that now. And stop calling everyone autistic when you're the one acting like that.
After Maho2 and SD I'm starting to think that Maho and ST were flukes or that Murayama just had a way better ghost writer working on those shows.
>>291408249Maho wasnt very good. Star Twinkle was good.
>>291408159I swear to god, people here have goldfish memory.All seasons had nitpickers complaining about plot while they were airing.
>>291408249>STMaho was absolutely nothing special, bottom half Precure season, and ST had that one producer to tard wrangle him.
>>291408159No they had complaints against them. They all do. SD is really angling for the finale to completely tie over the whole season though.
>>291408286I said major complaints, not nitpicks.
>>291408290Maybe when coming back the heat of GoPri that would be a valid take, but rewatching Maho after the Reiwa era made it feel genuinely solid.The Maho Marathon a few years ago was great.
>>291408337"major complaints" are nitpicks most of the time.They're people pretending that certain details break the show completely, but then those complaints get forgotten 95% of the time when the season becomes 2 or 3 years old.
>>291408290>Maho was absolutely nothing specialThat is just a lie and I'm not one of those anons that think Mirai and Riko are gay.Maho is definitely special due to the family bonds being the strongest in Precure.
>>291407823Siblings who fight but stand up for each other if someone else tries anything.
>>291408413That is HS but /pc/ still shit on HS even now...
>>291408388Post examples from those seasons then.
>>291408453>but /pc/Three anons at best. There's one schizo who's been spamming the same ageha tsubasa pic whenever you bring up the family argument, doesn't mean the whole thread hates HS.
>>291408487Pochiboy drinking his milk
>>291408249Maho 2 and SD are great though
SD has been enjoyable for me recently due to the lack of leaks and previews
I guess the thing with Meitantei for me is that the plot dripfeed is a fun experience in itself, but the actual mysteries are pretty low key and unexciting, hinging on a lack of communication between the main characters. It's not something I'd complain about given that this is a show for young children, but past series have had more exciting developments so the show can feel underwhelming. There's just a dissonance for me.
>>291408413Nah he is right. Maho sucked and mofurun is what saved it.
>>291408528>Three anons at best. >There's one schizo
>>291408663You can only bring up lack of communication with the recent Mikuru stuff, the abyss between Luluka and Kurea was understandable since Luluka was too far gone and closed her heart.
>>291408663>It's not something I'd complain about given that this is a show for young childrenI don't see why that should stop you.
>>291408663>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.Basically the episodic mysteries are for the kids while the overarching mysteries are for the older girls/adults. It's an intentional choice.
Is it me or Luluka is still refusing to call Kurea name
>>291408453HS family bonds are pretty weak for a couple of reasons1. Elle's parents are still alive, so any sense that Sora and Mashiro are her parents is kind of weak.2. Ageha, Tsubasa, and Elle having a weird love triangle weakens any family vibes the three of them might have helped to generate otherwiseMaho's the best when it comes to family vibes, but I'd go so far to say that Suite is better than HS when it comes to family vibes since Hibiki and Kanade end up feeling like older sisters to Ako instead of forcing themselves to fill a parent role, and Ellen ends up as Hibiki and Kanade's mutual sister/pet's wife due to her relation to Hummy.
>>291408814So it's boring for everyone.
>>291408834IIRC, I haven't been keeping track but the Japs claim she likes to use anata to refer to Kurea directly, which is like how wives refer to husbands in the context that she uses it.
>>291408663If I learned something from Donbrothers is that sometimes the bonds formed and the little moments shared along the way are more meaningful and enjoyable than the resolution of big mysteries and that is okay too.The main theme of SD might be detectives and mysteries but it's quite obvious that bonds, family and dreams are just as important for the story it wants to tell.
>>291408913I have not once heard kurea use anata in a wife manner. She says kurea plenty. She just doesnt talk at all.
>>291408663Communication would not help with the mysteries you guys whine about>Hey Luluka why are you upset>Fuck off>hey Kurea do you know this girl?>nope>Wow Mikuru you kinda look like my mom>but I have totally different name though?
>>291408964Luluka I mean
>>291403131very intimidating lesbians not so tough when grandma is around
>>291408908Technically the episodic stories being geared towards kids has been true for a long time, why do you think they have so many one-off stories? So people can pick it up easily at any point of the season.Precure has always been a show that tried to be acessible to mainstream normalfags, it IS a show for the family.
>If I learned something from Donbrothers is
>>291408913Those japs are getting too into the ship.
cringeKEKS can't take the kino that was Donbrothers.
>>291408528Yeah
>>291408970I'm personally looking forward to when Anna reveals her mom has a completely different name and the seething that results from that.
>>291409030I blame the show's writers
>>291409062I told everyone near the start that Murayama would never let one of his cures ever have sex ever. They'll all be virgins still 30 years later.
>>291408663Communication was Wonderful's thing, anon.
>>291409062It's why people are assuming Mikuru using a pseudonym. This show will be shit on though if Mikuru isnt the mom in some way.
>>291408804Because I respect their intent for the target audience to figure out the mysteries themselves, and I get why they aren't stimulating for my adult brain. (The other thing is that I find that I struggle to care about the fairy lore.) I do wonder if the children have connected Mikuru = Anna's mom yet. I remember watching Sailor Moon before going to school in 1st grade and wondering why she didn't just reveal her identity to Tuxedo Mask.>>291408957>bonds, family and dreams are just as important for the story it wants to tellProblem is that the mystery of the week format gets in the way of this. Kurea's character pretty much exists as an accessory to Luluka.
Precure season but MC only has a year left to live
>>291409062Why do you people keep bringing up that up as if it was some kind of gotcha when we have a world altering giant gem the villains want looming around and amnesia perpetually haning above the Cures at all times? It also could be as simple as Mikuru hiding her real identity in 2027 for some reason...
puri
>>291409179That's what we thought Healin' Good would be about. The "Nodoka will die at the end" theories were strong in the first cour.
>>291409062Thats a common theory. The big thing that would cause seethe is mikuru not being the mom at all.
>>291409021This made me crack out loud
>>291409179https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8izWRTFPrxsWatch this show, it's from a shoujo magazine (so basically for little girls too).
Outdoor bean!
>>291409152>Because I respect their intent for the target audience to figure out the mysteries themselvesThe season spanning mysteries are for an older audience.
