Pretty Cure general thread

I vomited a little in my mouth imagining that.

Edit: Wow, what a weird page-topper

Since this is a kid's show, I don't think it would be something like preying on an underage girl. On the other hand, he could force Hana to marry him, which could be just as worse. It does show George's stalking on Hana very menacing.

GUYS! Are you crazy!? That's too much even for Hugtto.

I said marry not seduce her into bed. But yeah it would still be creepy, due to subtext. I do wonder how they are going with the George and Geros thing. I wonder if he's going to use her as well, and discard her when the time is up.

Still too much, especially just so they can hammer that George is a bad guy, because nothing more bad guy than a chronic sleazebag in a young girl show. If the aesop is too on-your-face, especially after that episode with Henry and Emiru's brother, then there will be accusations that the main writer is trying to say something. Why can't we have more like Hana's dad instead of wallering in the NTR issue?

You know while Go Princess focuses on the princess theme that Utena explored, this series focuses on its concept of destiny, fate, and future.

^^ That is very true. I wonder if the Pretty Cure have a "fate" in this series? We know that the future is screwed if they don't do something, but I'm curious about that dream Hana had earlier with the other cures. Maybe they're destined to fail, but in this case of the series they succeed. It would interesting seeing a slight delve into those types of concepts.

I know it's pretty cure, but I'm still morbidly curious.

Could you elaborate, I didnt quite get you this time around...

I'm talking about how earlier in the series there was a scene in which Hana had a dream near Hugtan. In it, we saw one of what we can assume is a cure send some other cures back in time. Since it was mentioned earlier that their is the concept of fate & destiny in this series, I'm wondering what's the fate of the pretty cure this time around. I'm curious how it's going to go.

So a stable time loop thing? That the future is already doomed because it was doomed in the first place already.

Exactly. And considering the previews I saw for the next episode...things don't look too good.

23. I can't believe I'm saying this for Precure, but slow down a little bit will you? Daigan was a hilarious anti-climax. Didn't even know what to do and gone before his first fight. Mystery man was the real leader after all. Which means Pupple was sleeping with the boss. And now Gelos is as well. If most of the villains know who Kurai is, why the misdirection? Trauma seems like a fun villain, and setup for yet another bad one. Meanwhile we get a bit more of Hana's past. Something bad happened to her that's for sure. Hope that gets elaborated on. Now that Lulu and Emiru's time in the spotlight is up it's starting to feel like the Hana and Homare show. Poor Saaya. New op edit is lazy, but at least new ed is good.

I dont know why that is news worthy. Not saying to you but rather to Animenewsnetwork.

PTSD in a Pre Cure series? And the Leading girl, no less? Well, then.

You know for kids. But yeah, that is pretty dark for a usually light series like Precure. I mean you would usually watch those types of scenarios in Madoka influenced magical girl shows.

24. We have no budget, the episode. Nice pool party I guess, and Hana got some management experience. Too bad she probably can't put that on a resume. But if she can, she should. And the defeated villains are actually showing up and getting along with everyone. Nice to see that happen when pushing the redemption angle. And on the downer side, Hana is having a hard time dealing with this. A middle school girl barely having the mental fortitude to comprehend the only thing stopping the end of the world being her? What a shock. Please keep up this development for her.

Not sure how there was no budget.

Looked better then last week's ep overall, actually.

Felt like a lot of still shots all over the place.

Yeah, the concert while impressive was still shots all over the place.

Also I think the people who want Hana to have something creepy happen to her are getting their wish.

Oh and Homarex Harry shippers lol.

They better be careful what they wish for or George could pull a G-Rated Akio move on Hana. You know George really looks like Blue from Happiness Precure.

Who is Akio?

This guy.

Edit: I've finally watched the episode, and I agree that this episode is a lot more budget friendly than others. However, I think this is a pretty good visual presentation with what George has claimed to be a true happiness. Because those stills of happy people having fun are what the future would look like if George wins, and Hana seeing those stills is her having a small epiphany about it. What kind of epiphany, we still have to look forward to it.

25. Lots of cute stuff from the side characters. Harry being a former Criasu employee was predictable. The real interesting part is that he seemed to be a regular hamster until he was plucked up from the streets. So really more like Mofurun than other fairies. And Bishin might also be a hamster? We'll learn more later. They've already taken in Lulu and forgiven a bunch of villains, so of course the Cures don't care that he was once with them. Looks like someone saved him in the future similar to what Homare did. One of the future Cures?

One of those hamster is very obviously Listol, which gives his relation with the other two very interesting background.
