''[=HuGtto=]! Pretty Cure'' (known internationally as ''Hug! Pretty Cure'') is the fifteenth entry in the ''Anime/PrettyCure'' franchise, commemorating the franchise’s [[MilestoneCelebration 15th anniversary]] and the last entry fully produced in the Heisei era. It is the thirteenth separate continuity in the series and began airing in February of 2018.

* ShipSinking: [[spoiler:Homare/Harry. In episode 43, Homare finally confesses her feelings towards Harry. However, he rejects her, telling her that he can't accept her feelings until he can admit his feelings to someone else.]]

* AluminumChristmasTrees: The show contains several scenes where the characters change diapers even when Hugtan didn't show signs she needed a change (most notably in episodes 9, 14 with Seitarou-kun instead of Hugtan and 22). They are actually partaking in an activity [[http://www.tokyowithkids.com/fyi/hoikuen.html that is traditional in Japanese culture, especially in hoikuens.]] Babies' diapers are often changed every hour, even when they aren't soiled.

* TransformationTrinket: As per usual, but with a twist: [[spoiler:only ''four'' TransformationTrinkets are available initially. The fifth one is created via the DeusExMachina explained above due to Emiru and Ruru's strong desire to become Precures together.]]

* SomethingCompletelyDifferent: Episode 15 focuses more on developing a friendship between Ruru and Emiru as opposed to focusing on Hana's group. Though previous episodes had comedic moments, this episodes seems to have a funny moment, gag facial expression, etc. every other scene.

* DarkerAndEdgier: While it doesn't seem overt in the current story, Harry's reveal of what happened to him and Hugtan as a result of Criasu's schemes and machinations definitely counts as this, compared to the state of the fairy worlds from the last [[Anime/MahoGirlsPrecure two]] [[Anime/KiraKiraPrecureAlaMode installments]]. The state of his homeworld is eerily identical to the BadFuture of ''VideoGame/PokemonMysteryDungeonExplorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky'', in which time itself has been essentially lost to everyone and the entire world is nothing more than a stone husk. [[spoiler: Made even worse when it's revealed that they don't come from a different world. [[WhamLine They come from the future of the current world.]]]]

* TimeStandsStill: Criasu plans to destroy the future by stopping time in the present, thus preventing the future from ever coming to pass.

* ThreePlusTwo: TheTeam starts with the trio of Hana, Saaya, and Homare. [[spoiler:After Episode 20, Ruru and Emiru join them, expanding the group to a FiveManBand.]]

* BeamMeUpScotty[[invoked]]: Saaya "quotes" a statement from Mother Teresa in episode 2, but the phrase was one [[http://www.motherteresa.org/quotes-falsely-attributed-to.html#enaglish2 commonly misattributed to her]].

* ThemeTuneCameo: Not from ''Hugtto'', but ''Fresh'''s second ending theme plays when [[spoiler:Love, Tarte, and Chiffon meets Homare, Emiru, Ruru, and the ''Mahou Tsukai'' girls in episode 36]].
** We get to hear the original version of ''[[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic DANZEN! Futari wa]] [[Anime/PrettyCure Pretty Cure]]'' twice in the series: [[spoiler:once in episode 22 when Cures Black and White are handing out whoopass to an Oshimaida, and once again in episode 37 when we have all 55 Cures moping up the Oshimaidas and beating up Traum.]]

''[=Hugtto! PreCure=]'' is the fifteenth entry in the ''Franchise/PrettyCure'' franchise, commemorating the franchise’s [[MilestoneCelebration 15th anniversary]] and the last entry fully produced in the Heisei era. It is the thirteenth separate continuity in the series and began airing in February of 2018.

However, there’s a nice turn of events when she meets Hugtan and her guardian, Harry, who had fallen from the sky. But suddenly, the Criasu Corporation appears in hopes of stealing Hugtan's Mirai Crystal, so they create a scary monster to attack them!

With her strong desire to protect Hugtan, a new Mirai Crystal appears and transforms Hana into the Pretty Cure of High Spirits, Cure Yell. The Mirai Crystals are a crystalized form of Tomorrow Power, the magical power overflowing this world that creates a shining future for everyone. If it’s stolen, everyone’s future will disappear, including Hugtan’s future.

** [[spoiler: Ruru's [[YouAreNumberSix designated serial number]], R.U.R. 9500, is a reference to ''Theatre/{{RUR}}'', the play that first introduced the word "robot". Furthermore, Ruru's giant robot form looks like it wouldn't be too out of place in the ''{{Franchise/Gundam}}'' series.]]

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: Episode 28 shows why running in heels is not a good idea, as Papple constantly falls over in pain.
