History Anime / TropicalRougePrettyCure

** First season where the protagonist doesn't start as a second-year in high school, but as a first-year.

** First season to actually have intentional scenes of {{Fanservice}}.

* AdultFear: In episode 45, [[spoiler: Manatsu's parents have no idea where their daughter or Laura are in the middle of a particularly deadly storm brought about by the BigBad's plans.]]

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Cure Summer's is blue, pink and yellow, Cure Coral's is purple, Cure Papaya's is orange, Cure Flamingo's is red and sky blue, and Cure La Mer's is bright pink and light blue.

* BreakingOldTrends: The finale breaks a couple of trends that previous seasons have been holding up. It still holds up as an "epilogue" episode after the conflict with the FinalBoss.
** This is the second season in a row that doesn't have a DistantFinale whatsoever, instead focusing on the present.
** Surprisingly, [[Anime/DeliciousPartyPrettyCure Cure Precious/Yui Nagomi]] doesn't show up at all in the final episode, which has been a tradition since ''[[Anime/MahoGirlsPrecure Mahou]]''. She does appear in the post-credits in Japanese broadcast though.
** Besides of Cure Precious not appearing, there is no PostFinalBoss at all (usually it's a remnant of a MonsterOfTheWeek). In fact, the Pretty Cure don't transform '''at all''' in the episode proper, only transforming in the cold open as beginning as a minor gag which is revealed to be AllJustADream. The rest of the episode focuses on the Tropical Club graduation festival and [[spoiler:Laura's departure]].

* TheCameo: In episode 33, one of the video thumbnails on [[BlandNameProduct [=ToRobu=]]] features [[Anime/KiraKiraPrecureALaMode Himari Arisugawa.]]

* UnscaledMerfolk: The Witch of Procrastination's minions are all different non-fish sea creatures (seahorse, hermit crab, sea slug, shrimp) with humanoid forms, with the Witch herself looking like an eel with a build like Ursula from Disney's adaptation of Hans Christian Anderson's mermaid story.

** In the final episode, A picture is shown twice, first during the cold opening, and a second time after the memory machine's activation. In the second instance, [[RemovedFromThePicture There is a clear gap where Laura had been stood]], revealing the extent to which someone's presence is removed by the machine.

* WhamLine: The Witch of Delay's EstablishingCharacterMoment line, "I'll get to it tomorrow" and variations are this. [[spoiler:She used to be the Witch of Destruction, but meeting Aunete/Cure Oasis let her have a change of heart, making her constantly procrastinate the fight between Cure Oasis and destroying the world.
