History Anime / HappinessChargePrettyCure

* UnexpectedCharacter: Everyone assumed the Pretty Cure cameos would be in order. Boy, weren't they surprised when Cure Dream showed up instead of Cure White?

* TruckDriversGearChange: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnOiG6Fv3Xg The opening]] ([[http://prettycure.wikia.com/wiki/Happiness_Charge_Pretty_Cure!_WOW! Lyrics here]]) does this once or twice ''[[UpToEleven per stanza]]''.

* OlderThanTheyThink: The costume-changing cards had people saying, "Hmm, Toei really wants those ''VideoGame/{{Aikatsu}}'' profits." However, they're actually a game mechanic from the Precure arcade game, which has been around for a long time; ''[[Anime/FreshPrettyCure Fresh]]'' fans may remember it as the way Cure Passion's identity was [[LateArrivalSpoiler spoiled]] publicly the week before her introduction (the character was plastered on the side of the cabinet).

* FollowTheLeader: Toei really wants those ''[[{{VideoGame/Aikatsu}} Aikatsu]]'' profits. The gimmick is even cards that give new costume.

* ShoutOut: Hmm, an action series about form-changing heroes who uses food-based forms and dances to fight evil. [[Series/KamenRiderGaim Doesn't that sound familiar...?]]

* TruckDriversGearChange: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnOiG6Fv3Xg The opening]] ([[http://prettycure.wikia.com/wiki/Happiness_Charge_Pretty_Cure!_WOW! Lyrics here]]) does this once or twice ''[[UpToEleven per stanza]]'', and no two keys are used twice in a row.

* TransformationTrinket: The [=PreChanMirror=] (Pretty Change Mirror) and [=PreCards=].

Earth is being attacked by [[MonsterOfTheWeek Saiarks]] from the Phantom Kingdom. However, the world is being protected by the legendary warriors, Pretty Cure. One of these warriors is Cure Princess, also known as Hime Shirayuki, the immature princess of the Blue Sky Kingdom.. Unfortunately, she can't even destroy a single Saiark. Seeing this, the magical being Blue grants Hime the Crystal of Love and tells her to find a partner. Hime decides to throw the crystal from the top of a building and become partners with whoever it hits. The crystal hits Megumi Aino, a lively but meddlesome girl who happened to be passing by.

Megumi is quick to befriend Hime, but subsequently another Saiark attacks. Megumi awakens the power of the crystal and transforms into Cure Lovely. Together with Hime, the two girls fight against the the forces of the Phantom Kingdom [[MacGuffin while searching for the magical Precards]], [[GottaCatchEmAll which will bestow any wish the owner desires once they are all collected]]. However, they are not alone: [[AloofAlly a mysterious purple Pretty Cure called Cure Fortune]] is also attempting to secure the Precards and take down the Saiark [[LonersAreFreaks all by herself]].

* TheCameo: [[Anime/FutariWaPrettyCure Cure Black]] appears briefly in the opening.

'''''Happiness Charge Pretty Cure!''''' is the eleventh entry in the ''Anime/PrettyCure'' franchise, commemorating the franchise's [[MilestoneCelebration 10th anniversary]]. It is the ninth separate continuity in the series, and will be premiering in February 2014.

* TheChosenMany: In departure to previous seasons, there are now many Pretty Cures on Earth. The main characters are just one of them... and [[TheChosenZero a bunch of underperforming ones, at that]].

Hime Shirayuki is the immature princess of the Blue Sky Kingdom and one of the legendary Pretty Cure, Cure Princess. When her domain is invaded by Saiark, an evil group originating from the neighbouring Phantom Kingdom, Hime discovers that she is not strong enough by herself to stop them. Fleeing across dimensions to Japan, she searches for someone to become her partner Pretty Cure and goes with the time-honoured tradition of "the first person I can see": Megumi Aino, a lively but meddlesome girl who happened to be passing by.

Megumi is granted powers by Blue, [[NatureSpirit the spirit of the Earth]], and transforms into Cure Lovely. Together with Hime, the two girls fight against the the forces of Saiark [[MacGuffin while searching for the magical Precards]], [[GottaCatchEmAll a full collection of which will bestow any wish the owner desires]]. However, they are not alone: [[AloofAlly a mysterious purple Pretty Cure called Cure Fortune]] is also attempting to secure the Precards and take down the Saiark [[LonersAreFreaks all by herself]].

** The first example in promotional materials is that Blue, the Bishounen showed in the main image above, is the first male god like being to grant the precure's their power after all the previous seasons had female rulers do that job.

* EatTheCamera: Done exactly three times in the first episode alone. In the first two (Hime crying over losing another battle and Megumi gushing over the Pretty Cures), SuperDeformed versions of the characters in question were shown inside their mouths, with the camera continuing to zoom into their mouths.
