Thank goodness I wasn't the only one confused that Wonderful and Hirogaru Sky were being brought back for the movie. You're seriously telling me there's a beautiful island locale with coral motifs everywhere, and Toei didn't think to use the Tropical-Rouge team?

I can see Wonderful. It is the most recent series that had finished. The Sky team is more questionable but I'm not familiar enough to judge if it fits the island theme or not

[up] But wouldn't it make more sense for them to visit the tropical island than other Cure teams?

You could probably make the same argument for the Splash Star team, but Splash Star wasn't a year-long Beach Episode like Tropical-Rouge was...

It makes more financial sense. I do agree they COULD have located the story elsewhere... Or maybe they did want Tropical Rouge but Toei said no.

Depending on how involved the other teams are this is basically shaping up to be another discount All Stars movie in the vein of Dream Stars, Super Stars, Miracle Leap, and Miracle Universe "All Stars" movie in all but name. We haven't had a real seasonal movie without any crossover elements since Delicious Party (No, the short that aired alongside it doesn't count.) and Star Twinkle before that.

[up]Meh this looks more like the Healin Good, Tropical Rouge and Wonderful movies. Eg a movie for the current team that happens to give a small role to the past teams.

21. Look at Nana trying to be relevant. Good luck ever getting that to happen. Nice to see Uta have some resolve that she'll make new memories with Purirun if their memories can't come back. Would've liked the memories to be put on hold a little longer thanks to that, but that's probably too angsty for Uta. Meroron only hates Uta, not Nana and Kokoro confirmed. Even if Purirun has recovered, Meroron just has to be the toxic and possessive lesbian. Hopefully this sticks for most of the show. Zakkuri MVP for taking out 3 Cures before they transformed. Sure he flubbed it right afterwards, but that's much further than regular generals normally get.

Honestly, the recent Kuroyaminder attack was basically Laser-Guided Karma for Meroron.

Is this the first time someone who is already a Cure has been actually monstierfied?

[up] no. The very previous season had Komugi get a very short-lived stint before breaking out of it

Purirun would be the second after Komugi, although in this case her monsterification lasted longer and the monster still existed after she was freed from it.

While Komugi technically became a monster she didn't really do anything. I'd say ZyukoonKiss count for it more than she does.

Idol looked at Hirogaru and Wonderful and said "fuck you two, this is how you do Dark Sora!"

I don't think Gaogaon!Komugi counts since she was Fighting from the Inside the whole time and the transformation was undone before it could finish. The closest I can think of would probably be Dark Cure Sky?

One interesting fact is that a Kurayaminda whose victim escapes it is not defeated infact it goes berserk.

[up] Makes you wonder what they actually are. Are they just constructs created by those weird crystals reacting to a living being? Or did it go berserk because Purirun's Kiraki-light was still inside and still served as the "component", but since it's an inanimate object, the Kurayaminder had no way to control itself like with a sentient victim?

has anyone seen toei’s new english dub of the series? what’s the consensus so far?

hit me up on MSN messenger! ;D

I don't think Dark Sky counts because it wasn't an evil version of Cure Sky so much as it was a deadly upgrade. More the Precure equivalent of something like Hellrising Hopper.

[up] I'm pretty sure the Futari Wa dub has always been considered pretty decent.
