Twilight Precure Ep 3

Go To

The Innocent Spark of Lightning, Cure Dolce! is the third episode of Twilight Precure.

Chise starts suspecting her neighbor Azuma is the next Cure and another reincarnation, when the latter reveals her non-belief in world peace. The next day, the girls are ambushed by another of the Obake Trio. This gives Azuma the Wake-Up Call she needs to cast aside her “Bad End”-ism. Here comes the sweet but shocking Pretty Cure of innocence, Cure Dolce!

Tropes

  • Call-Back: Azuma’s “Victory!” catchphrase makes yet another reference to Smile PreCure! (specifically the dub, because her past life Bad End/Shadow Peace says “victory” while doing a similar V-sign.
  • Establishing Character Moment: Azuma as the sweet and cheerful preteen who likes drawing (like Yayoi), but isn’t very good at it. A couple of minutes in, she’s also shown to be a flat-earther until her first henshin.
  • Heel–Face Turn: Azuma does this after seeing her friends (and the flowers) in danger.
  • Oh, Crap!!:
    • Chise has this when she sees Araiguma.
    • Then Flare has this when her attack doesn’t work (she even says it, too!).
  • Shock and Awe: Cure Dolce, a lightning Cure.
