** "Heartcatch Precure!: The Movie" was apparently popular enough in France that it was simply dubbed into French, and has a surprising number of fans in the West, which brings the question why no Movie Theater/TV Station wants to air that film.

* EvilIsSexy: What some fans think of the Desert Apostles, judging by fanart. Kumojaki got a lot of love from the BaraGenre crowd.

* CrossesTheLineTwice: [[spoiler:Erika, Itsuki, Coffret, and Potpurri gutting the bodies of three Snackeys to wear their skins as disguises in Episode 47 already sounds super dark and disturbing even in context... but them being able to pull off their PaperThinDisguise and momentarily successfully tricking the real Snackeys (even with Coffret NotEvenBotheringWithTheAccent) brings it back to a lighter shade of BlackComedy]].

** There is an infamous doujin based on this series [[http://i.imgur.com/biWARhI.jpg out there]] that has the characters modeled after ''Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar''. Come ''Anime/DokiDokiPrecure'', the title of Episode 23 has the words '''[[AnimeThemeSong Ai Wo Torimodose]]''' in it.



* {{Squick}}:
** The Heart Seeds needed to save the Heart Tree -- the fairies poop them out. Um, ew. This leads to rather humorous OhCrap (no pun intended) moment in episode 28 when they realize what was about to happen after saving so many Heart Flowers at one time. Thankfully, after a while the Heart Seed sequence gets cleaned up just a little, though you still know they're pooping.

Heartcatch Pretty Cure isn't THAT dark. It's rated G for All Ages and it's Pretty Cure, not Madoka Magica.


* WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: Heartcatch is regarded as one of the darkest ''Pretty Cure'' installations to date, as many of its character episodes bring up serious topics. [[spoiler: And that's not even getting into the whole predicament and suffering Yuri experienced throughout the series, as she has two people closest to her ''dying''. And no, they didn't come back to life after that.]]

* DemographicallyInappropriateHumour: Episode 1 has a scene where Chypre & Coffret hides under Tsubomi's shirt to evade Sasorina's capture, with said villain revealing she suffers from ACupAngst. This is the first time the franchise has ever done a BoobBasedGag.

* TrueArtIsAngsty: ''Heartcatch'' is noted as [[DarkerAndEdgier having far more serious character drama than seasons both before and since]], and even [[spoiler:ending in two sympathetic characters being outright KilledOffForReal]]. It's also to this day the most acclaimed season in the franchise, often praised for tackling a serious tone in a way approachable for its young audience while at the same time creating some of the most developed and memorable characters in the franchise.

* InferredHolocaust: No one really stops to talk about or mourn for the many people who would have likely died from [[spoiler:Dune pummeling the earth during their final confrontation.]] And even if [[spoiler:all the people we see survived the world being turned into a desert long enough for it to get restored to normal, what would happen to all the marine life that can't survive that long in those conditions?]]

Go! Princess was an Acclaimed Flop.


* ToughActToFollow: This season is so popular that the ones that followed have come across as inferior. Until ''Anime/GoPrincessPrettyCure'' came along, the ratings for the [[Anime/SuitePrettyCure previous]] [[Anime/SmilePrettyCure four]] [[Anime/DokiDokiPrettyCure seasons]] [[Anime/HappinessChargePrettyCure after]] ''Heartcatch'' had a rather significant drop. It doesn't help that this series has some of the highest ratings in the franchise's history, right after (if not up there with) the [[Anime/FutariWaPrettyCure original series]].

* EvenBetterSequel: To ''Fresh''. While Pretty Cure fans enjoyed Fresh for fixing the flaws of Yes 5 [=GoGo=]! along with being the first series to have a villain redeem herself and become a Cure, [=HeartCatch=] is regarded as one of the best series due to its characters and dynamic fight scenes.

* FanFicMagnet: Tsubomi's little sister Futaba from the finale. Quite a handful of fanfic writers and fanartist have spent some time thinking of what she would be like as a Cure.
