Line #10 FanFic/PrettyCureFullColor


1	One of many OC fics for the ''Anime/PrettyCure'' franchise that have sprung up around Livejournal, this one is written by xdisc and features a "season" theme.
2
3	The MagicalLand that this particular group needs to save is the Realm of Sky, which protects the weather of all worlds (but you probably shouldn't blame natural disasters on them). They kept the balance with the Season Keys, four immortal pieces of a tree. Yes, you read that right: two leaves and two twigs. In comes the evil group Neomonde, attempting to steal them. Rather than let that happen, ruler Princess Sora sent the Keys to Earth just before she was captured. In come three junior high school students, who become Cures with three of the Season Keys. (Later on, they're joined by a fourth member.) Time for some princess-saving, ladies.

29	----
30	!!'''This fanfic contains examples of:'''
31	* ActingForTwo: InUniverse, In one episode of season 2, the girls play both the Section 2 girls from ''Manga/GunslingerGirl'' and their respective fratellos.
32	* AlphaBitch: Sakura was initially this, although mostly attitude-wise. She didn't have many friends until the Cures came along.
33	* AlternateContinuity: Takes place in one, like most Precure seasons.
34	* AmbiguouslyGay: Clawind. The author of ''FanFic/PrettyCureHeavyMetal'' had good reason to quote [[Film/{{Watchmen}} Rorschach]] and say "Possible homosexual? Must investigate further."
35	* BettyAndVeronica: [[spoiler: Until episode 25,]] Aki was the Betty and Sakura was the Veronica.
36	* ByThePowerOfGreyskull: "Precure, Full Awakening!"
37	* CherryBlossomGirl: Tsuitei Sakura is a [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]] version, her first name translates to “Cherry blossom” and she has power over plants. She lacks the “reincarnation” aspects of this archetype, however.
38	* {{Crossdresser}}: When Aki imagines herself and the other Cures (including [[spoiler:Kane]]) in a ''Manga/GunslingerGirl'' scenario in an early episode of season 2, one of the dual roles they play is the fratellos assigned to their respective characters.
39	%%* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: For some characters. Hey, it's a ''Precure'' tradition.
40	* DemotedToExtra: Now that Hana has fulfilled her purpose as the red herring in the "who is Cure Spring?" question, the author seems to have no more use for her.[[spoiler:.. except as SecretKeeper (when she figures out four of her friends are Cures).]]
41	* DroppedABridgeOnHim: [[spoiler:Kaori was unceremoniously offed by Clawind after her final fight.]]
42	* ElementalPowers: Like ''FanFic/ShiningPrettyCure'', both sides use the four main elements in some form.
43	%%* ElsewhereFic
44	* EvilCounterpart: The four warriors of Neomonde are this to the Cures.
45	* EvilTeacher: Kajiaki's civilian guise is of a schoolteacher.
46	* {{Fangirl}}: Aki is one for magical girls, naturally.
47	* KarmicDeath: [[spoiler:What Furyze's death would've been if Kane was Cure Spring, as he killed her off.]]
48	* MeaningfulName:
49	** Kazeno Aki ''"Kazeno"''/"Wild wind"; ''"Aki"''/"Autumn" ''"The Sky in a Cool Sunset! Cure Autumn!"''
50	** Toumizu Rei. ''"Toumizu"''/"Frozen water"; ''"Rei"''/"Cold". ''"The Sky in a Snowstorm! Cure Winter!"''
51	** ''"The Sky in a Hot Weekend! Cure Summer!"'' Natsuno Atsui. ''"Natsu"''/"Summer"; ''"Atsui"''/"Heat well"
52	** Tsuitei Sakura. ''"Sakura"'' means "Cherry blossom". ''"The Sky of a Cherry Blossom Shower! Cure Spring!"''
53	* MonsterOfTheWeek: Akukage are this seasons.
54	* TheMovie: WordOfGod says there will be one. It's been postponed to the second season, having previously been axed due to the time it took to deliver episode 22.
55	%%* MusicalEpisode: Episode 44
56	* NonHumanSidekick: Sunny and Berry are this to the Cures. Easel becomes one too.
57	* PlotCoupons: The Season Keys are this season’s powerup item.
58	* RedemptionEqualsDeath:
59	** Belldandy [[HeelFaceTurn realizes she cares for the Cures after all]] and seemingly perishes after taking an attack mean for Aki; however, WordOfGod says she'll go the way of [[Anime/FutariWaPrettyCure Kiriya]] and come back as a normal human in the season finale, as well as gain a new identity as Lady Rainbow in season 2.
60	** [[spoiler:And then she'll "die" again in an early episode of season 2, though it's going to be for a TV episode shoot, and the crew knows better than to make a [[SnuffFilm snuff episode]].]]
61	* SirNotAppearingInThisTrailer: Whisdame, who first appeared in the last few episodes and wasn't named until episode 32
62	* ThemeNaming: Blatant. Twisted, though, in that all three candidates for Cure Spring had theme names (Kane's is less obvious, but her true name appears to come from the ''Manga/AhMyGoddess'' character whose name was [[GratuitousEnglish supposed]] to be "Verdandi"), so the GenreSavvy couldn't guess from that.
63	* ThePowerOfFriendship: Like all ''Pretty Cure'' series, it figures prominently in the storyline. More specifically, it was necessary for the future Cure Spring's heart to be together with the others before she could access her powers.
64	* ThisCannotBe: Uttered by Furyze, [[spoiler:shortly before Cure Spring's attack destroys him.]]
65	* TransformationTrinket: The Cure Pick, a kind of choker, is this season’s.
66	* WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove: Midorikawa Kane was experiencing different emotions and it causes her to question her allegiance.
