Futari wa Pretty Cure

• In general, any time Cure Black realizes what she just said after transforming.
• Episode 4: Nagisa accidentally breaks the finger of a fragile statue. Panicking, she tries fixing it, only to break its arm. She tries fixing it for good and seemingly succeeds... only to have the statue look like it's scratching its butt. In a Brick Joke, once she and the school leave at the end of the episode, an art critic appears and praises the butt-scratching statue to be a masterpiece.
• The dub has this exchange at the end of the preview for episode 6.
  Hannah: Is there anything scarier than an ogre or an angry bear?
  Natalie: You haven't seen my mom when I get home late.
• Episode 8: When the three of them walk to school together, Honoka introduces Nagisa to Fujimura Shougo and vice versa. He says in an exasperated tone of voice that Fujipi is an embarrassing nickname. Que his best friend tackling him while cheerfully greeting him with "Good morning, Fujipi!". Fujipi is unamused.
  • Another in this episode is when the girls have a falling out and, after transforming, are too busy arguing with each other to actually fight the bad guy, or even take much notice of his existence.
• An unintentional one in Episode 10 - in the English Dub, the weapons the bank robbers use were edited out. This results in them using Invisible Guns, Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series style.
  • Actually, there were no guns to edit out in the first place! In the original Japanese episode the robbers fooled everyone by doing the "Finger Gun under the pockets of their coats" variation of Brandishment Bluff!
• In Episode 12, Poisony distracts Nagisa with chocolate while having a mini-Zakenna toss Mepple away from her. When Nagisa opens Mepple's pocket, many Zakennas came out and surround Nagisa, and after a few lacrosse-stick swings, run off... but not after explicitly having themselves form the words "Baka"/"Idiot" right on the air just to taunt Nagisa.
• During Episode 15, while Nagisa and Honoka discuss how their enemies might come after them while they're having their family vacations at the same inn, Nagisa opens a door on a cabinet to reveal Poisony inexplicably hiding inside it. She shuts it unknowingly before having a funny Double Take.
  • Additionally, when the episode's Zakennas appear, possessing two suits of samurai armor, the two girls have an Oh, Crap! expression as they discuss what just happened before fleeing from the Zakennas.
• The chalk duster dance in Episode 16.
  • In the same episode, Cure Black and Cure White are surrounded by the Zakenna that have taken on Yuka's appearance, but they can't just attack since the real Yuka is somewhere among them. Once they've figured out which one is the real Yuka, Cure Black uses a marker to scribble on Yuka's face so they can tell her apart from the Zakenna.
• Nagisa spitting pieces of potato chips all over Honoka's face in Episode 21.
  • Before that, she came back to her room with a bag of chips on her mouth and scolds Mipple and Mepple for being too careless with showing their real forms whilst still having said bag of chips on her mouth, resulting in Mipple being unable to understand what she said. Arienai Fansubs decided to have fun with it and grumbled Nagisa's◊ subtitled lines◊ to mimic the effect.
• During a battle in Episode 28 (the episode of Regine's awakening, to be exact), Cure Black and Cure White find themselves atop an high hill and faced with a veritable army of Zakennas, after having had trouble dispatching five of them. The stress of fighting for so long finally gets at Cure Black, and she looks like she's about to have an Heroic BSoD... but a few seconds later, she begins to speak about how she would like nothing more than have a chocolate parfait, starts lamenting about her homework for the vacation... and finally, it all degenerates into Cure Black angrily ranting and raving at the monsters in front of a bewildered Cure White (who even gets Blank White Eyes for good measure).
• Episode 37 has Nagisa and Honoka's hilarious rendition of Romeo and Juliet.
  • When forced to transfer into Pretty Cure to take on the costume-born Zakenna, the light show brought about by the transformation shocks the audience in hilarious fashion.
  • During his fight with the duo, Juna busts through the ceiling which horrifies both vice-principal Kometsuki and the principal.
  • While initially acting like his usual self in admonishing the students, Kometsuki slowly is won over by the play and easily becomes the most ecstatic about the performance in contrast to the apathy by the principal.
• Nagisa and her classmates faking a samba in episode 39 in an attempt to divert their teacher's attention away from the surprise wedding gift they're preparing for her.

• Pollun mistakenly thinking that Nagisa's mom said the mascot's Verbal Tic in episode 13.
  Pollun: ”Your mom said -mepo -mepo all day-popo?”
  Mipple: “I don’t think she said that part-mipo.”
• Episode 14:
  • Nagisa unsurprisingly goes redfaced again when they happened to meet Fujipi on the park. Hikari, who had no clue on how Nagisa would react to Fujipi, was left confused throughout the meeting with Fujipi. She was then left even more speechless after Mepple reveals that Nagisa had a crush with Fujipi the following day.
  • Hikari's sarcasm-filled reply to Nagisa when she asked Honoka and Hikari about the banner that she had made for Fujipi's match.
    “Don’t worry! The letters are a little crooked, but I’m sure he’ll be able to read it.”
• On her first ever trip with her classmates Nao and Miu in episode 15, Hikari told her friends that she wants to “study life”. Her friends told her to not be too formal with explaining things.
  • Later in the episode, Hikari plays basketball for the first time. To say that she’s scared with it would be an understatement.
• Episode 16 is filled with these:
  • The entire "Nagisa believes luck by fortune-telling" bit. At first she didn't believed it until she won a high-grade melon when buying groceries and met Fujipi by chance on her way back home. She was so carried away by it that when Honoka tries to warn Nagisa to not get carried away with it the following day, she walked off when she realized that its futile to warn her about it.
    • Unsurprisingly, this later backfired when Nagisa decided to forgo study for the exams because she believed in the fortune telling book. The results are just about what you expected.
      Akane: "Do I even have to ask? I guess your brief spell of luck is gone, eh?"
  • Uraganos tries to enter the school complex, only to be stopped by The Principal who then talks to him as if he’s a normal person, failing to spot that Uraganos is at least twice his height, have a red-colored skin, and having a much different body shape than a normal human being. Amazingly, Uraganos actually fell to this and leaves the school complex for a brief moment.
  • The Heartiel Intelligen appears after the fight and starts to introduce herself to Honoka. Nagisa tries to introduce herself, but Intelligen responds by saying “I did not ask you.”
• Mepple getting thrown out of the tent when sleeping on the camping trip in episode 18.
  • Honoka's method of waking up an oversleeping Nagisa? Telling her that breakfast is ready.
• Episode 21: The mansion boy goes on a walk to the town for the first time while being carefully spied by the butler Zakenna's. When he's approached by a woman who thinks he's lost, one of the butler immediately grabs the woman and proceeds to get smacked by the woman with a purse.
  • The butler Zakenna themselves, no one in the town seems to bat an eye that they didn't look like a human at all.
• Mipple and Mepple's dream sequence of them fighting a Zakenna in the Garden of Light only to be interrupted by a giant Pollun (who was trying to wake Mepple up in the real world) in episode 24.
  • Yuka getting startled by the fairies when they began to talk from their hiding spot. Yuka mistook the fairies' sound as Nagisa's.
• How Lulun was introduced in episode 28. She had wandered the school grounds in search for Pollun and her actions startled Shiho and Rina (along with several other students) so much, they ended up thinking that Verone's "Ruriko-chan" ghost had cursed both of them.
  • The kicker? Even without Lulun, "Ruriko-chan" isn't even real in the first place! It was simply a prank story made by Akane when she's on her final year at Verone. Akane's amazed that some Verone students still fell to the prank.
• Lulun, as it turns out, is just as bothersome to the other fairies as with Pollun was back in the first season. As shown in episode 29, Pollun, who is now on the receiving end of what Mipple and Mepple experienced back then, gets visibly worn out by Lulun's antics after just one day with her in the Garden of Rainbows.
• Circulas' vague explanation of Lulun's size in episode 29 led Uraganos to conclude that Lulun is "not-tiny, not-huge". He would later conclude that Lulun is more "huge" than "tiny", as shown by his anger to Circulas in the next episode.
• Nagisa finally tries to confess her feelings to Fujipi on episode 33... only for Uraganos to suddenly appear. At first Nagisa is angry at Uraganos for interrupting, only to realize that it may have actually been a good time that he interrupts as her heart is not ready for the confession just yet, much to Uraganos' confusion.
  • Speaking of Uraganos, at the end of the villain's meeting in the mansion, he starts to hold his hand in his ears after Baldez returns and mentions that he can hear (and feel) Dark King's presence. When he first appeared in front of Nagisa, he still held his hand in his ears.
• The white tiger Zakenna laughing at Uraganos in episode 35 after he got tricked by Black and White, who faked a Marble Screw in order to run to where Hikari was.
• Episode 37 of Max Heart brought back the festival that led to the hilarious Romeo and Juliet rendition in the first season, and once again it had plenty of funny moments:
  • Shiho's big plan for the festival this time around, a dramatized play of the tales of Ushiwakamaru and Benkei, involved the usage of Wire Fu. During rehearsals, Nagisa (who volunteered to be the lead role alongside Honoka) learned the hard way that being Cure Black doesn't mean that she will be proficient with Wire Fu from the get go.
  • As the play started on the day of the festival, things are going well... until the part where Nagisa plays the flute, where she fell down the stairs that she was walking on due to not being able to see where the stairs are in the darkness.
  • This exchange between Nagisa and Uraganos, after Uraganos attacks the play and turns the crow tengu's props into Zakenna's:
    Nagisa: "The crow tengu were Ushiwakamaru's allies!"
    Uraganos: "I don't care about being historically accurate!"
  • Uraganos hitting his head into the one of the stage's pillar as he crawls up from his underground hiding spot.
  • Uraganos tries to attack the Cures on the school hallway's glass roof, only to crash down to the floor as the roof caved in to his weight and collapses.
• One of the very first scenes in episode 41 saw Nagisa tripping on the sidewalk, only to be rescued by Fujipi as her lacrosse stick (which got flown into the air) lands on her head.
• The second ending theme, used in the last 11 episodes to promote the second movie, has some golden moments:
  • The girls, Shiho, and Rina meets Fujipi. Nagisa's heart visibly glow and out of embarrassment, she starts to run away from Fujipi with the others getting dragged on her back.
  • Nagisa utterly failing at skiing◊.
  • The sight of the villains dressed as Santa's◊, with the poor butler Zakenna's getting relegated into Santa's reindeers.
