** While the franchise is obviously huge back in its native Japan, the franchise quite possibly rivals ''Franchise/DragonBall'', ''Franchise/LupinIII'' and ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure'' in most popular anime franchises ever in Italy (especially ''Anime/YesPrettyCure5'' and ''Anime/FreshPrettyCure'', in contrast to other parts of the world, which see the former as a ContestedSequel, and the latter being [[OvershadowedByAwesome Overshadowed By]] ''Heartcatch''), where even RAI (Italy's UsefulNotes/StateBroadcaster, and notorious for [[ScrewedByTheNetwork screwing over many animated series for live-action, which makes this especially notable]]) offered to partner with Creator/{{Toei}}'s Europe division for dubbing all future seasons of ''Pretty Cure'' into Italian and help with sales. [[ScrewedByTheLawyers Unfortunately, after]] Creator/SabanBrands [[ScrewedByTheLawyers bought the worldwide rights to the franchise]], RAI was unable to pick up the Italian rights past ''[[Anime/HeartcatchPrettyCure Heartcatch]]''. Fortunately, one of the terrestrial broadcasters picked up the rights to ''Anime/SmilePrettyCure'' (albeit still labeled as ''[[MarketBasedTitle GlitterForce]]''), and it was probably the first country to get the show Free-to-Air after being on Creator/{{Netflix}}, showing the enduring popularity for the franchise there.
