Go To

Protect It! Nao's Special Precious Bonds with Family!! (known as April's Babysitting Blues in the US) is the 42nd episode of Smile PreCure! (34th of Glitter Force), and the 431st episode overall of Pretty Cure.

Nao is left in charge of her siblings while her parents are in the hospital, but Keita and Haru go missing.

Tropes:

  • Babysitting Episode: The episode is mainly about Nao having to watch her siblings while her parents are in the hospital.
  • Big "NO!": Cure March shrieks one of these when it seems like her siblings have been killed.
  • Meaningful Name:
    • In the original Japanese version, the new baby is named Yui, which means "binds", because Nao wanted her to make special bonds with others.
    • In the Glitter Force dub, the new baby is named Nina, because she's the ninth member of the family.
  • New Baby Episode: This episode's B-plot is about the birth of the seventh Midorikawa child.
  • Would Hurt a Child: Majorina has no qualms with attempting to kill Nao's siblings, who are twelve at the oldest and two at the youngest.
