Yukari
>selfish, possessive, overtly mentally abusive, treats her long-time "friend" like shit, but akira actually is okay with this because she's a pathetic doormat who makes battered-wife excuses, so I guess they deserve each other
Meroron
>selfish, possessive, mentally abusive but in a subversive cowardly way, treats her long-time "friend" like an object or personal nee-tama doll and doesn't allow her any agency whatsoever, purirun has no say in the matter
Guys, I think Meroron wins. I think Meroron takes the crown for "actually a bad person" worst personality of all cures.
>>279691800 (OP)Meroron is pretty shit so far. Hot, but don't date her.
>>279691813what are they looking at?
I think the best way for this arc to go is:
>Kiss does all this out of actual dislike for Uta that she still harbors
>she doesn't even understand why at this point, the whole kirakiranran business just ticks her off, and it always did, which is why she kept to herself all the time
>Zukyoon still doesn't understand what's going on, but she doesn't want to leave Uta
>Uta tries to reach out, but Kiss stops her and says Zukyoon doesn't need Uta
>Zukyoon finally snaps and gives Kiss a proper face slap, berating her selfishness
>Kiss snaps back, and runs away
>transition to the next arc, exploring Meroron's actual origin (saving her from Darkiine-sama)
>>279691030Wonderful.... THAT episode. You know

Freshzzz
>>279691826so in other words..... a landmine?
I will say it again what's with the lesbian hag Cures always being in toxic relationships what is Japan trying to say
Second ED melody:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92L-wKv3lZs&t=845s
>>279691737Look at her. Just look at that inscrutable face of hers. Meroron:
>cried when opening the lock, in contrast to Purirun's heroism>livestreamed her and Zukyoon's debut>has been avoiding Uta like the plague>is stringing Purirun along like a toy she won at a carnivalI'm not making any sense of this. Could it be she's completely unaffected by the lock and is just a moody nonsensical teenage girl with raging hormones impeding her judgement?
>>279691800 (OP)>akira actually is okay with this because she's a pathetic doormat who makes battered-wife excusesRude.
>I'm surrounded by dimwits
>>279691836Your fanfic doesn't fit the tone of the show, just watch what they were doing last episode.
>>279691913>just a moody nonsensical teenage girl with raging hormones impeding her judgementNah, unlike real life, fiction has to make sense. There has to be a reason.
>>279691887Ugh. What a huge step down from ED1.
This sucks. I hate how ED2 is always worse, and we're always stuck with it for way more than half the show.
Not to fucking mention, soon we'll be hearing it twice an episode because they will LAZILY use it for the finisher too.
>>279691836gotta love a good female on female slap
>>279691945Mikoto is the most beautiful Idol character.
>>279691973Wonderful ED 2 was better than the first. Same for DP.
>>279691973For a while ED2s were conistently better.
>>279691954Yeah, at no point did this show ever get serious.
>>279691959Like what? What if it was actually her desire is what gave Purirun amnesia because she's what Meroron valued the most and therefore feels responsible for the state Purirun is in and too afraid to confront Uta and the others because of it? But then that begs the question what did Purirun actually give up?
>>279692035I'm surprised they went that hard.
>>279691800 (OP)I think the show will give an explanation that makes it so Meroron less evil and more pretty unjustified. I don't think she's lying when she says Purirun's wish is her wish.
Bitch would still be pretty accurate to be fair though.
>>279691887Sounds generic... the kind of background noise like TR through HS that doesn't stick at all...
>>279691800 (OP)Yeah it's not a good look for Meroron. Purirun is practically an Alzheimer's patient she's taking advantage of.
>>279692035Happy Father's Day, by the way.
>>279691836>gives Kiss a proper face slapnot happening
>>279691775It really took you until she stole Mayu's intellectual property to think that? She was spouting jim crow level segregating remarks ever since her introduction.
>>279692140I'm liking it cause it's a really interesting change up, that'll get people talking (like it's now). Meroron is obv in the wrong, and I def want to see some drama kino when she gets confronted
>>279692193It happened before, in Fresh.
>>279692169Reika is boring no matter the form she's in.
>>279692161>>279692176>Kokoro learned that the Purirun she became friends with is as dead her dad on Father's dayReal smooth Kimi to Idol.
>>279692195what is this schizobabble
People with low media literacy don't get that Cure Kiss is the equivalent of our Eas, Siren, Cure Fortune, Twilight, Ruru, Gentle, Cure Nyammy, etc right now.
A character being questionable/evil doesn't mean the show is badly written, it means it's doing well to evoke the intended reactions from the viewers.
>>279692140>Purirun is practically an Alzheimer's patient she's taking advantage of.God DAMN that is a perfect analogy.
Meroron is committing elder abuse.
>>279692195I bet this made more sense in your head.
>>279692195I mean, it did look like she was softening up. She does have a caring side to her, like when she helped Mehmeh and granted Fuku's wish.
Nobody could see how she treated Komugi, Yuki, and Daifuku coming after that.
>>279692105But Delicious Happy Days.
>>279692161Which precure dads are the hottest? I think Elena's, Ichika's, Liko's, and Iroha's are up there.
>>279692327>Nobody could see how she treated Komugi, Yuki, and Daifuku coming after that.>wow my toys are super dangerous when humans use them>I'm taking them back
>>279692281>A character being questionable/evil doesn't mean the show is badly writtenWho said that? You're making leaps that aren't supported by the evidence.
>>279692349Give me a reason why I should care what you say when you can't even give a proper response.
>>279692238How about Reika (Hime Whisperer)?
>>279692281Eh it's not that. It's just people doing the usual knee jerk reactions, tho they are justified. When we get the full picture of why she's doing this, stuff will make better sense.
>>279692375Eh, it's kind of hard to tell who is calling Meroron an evil bitch affectionately and who is doing so because they legitimately hate her right now.
>>279692441Calling her an evil bitch doesn't mean you think the writing is bad.
>>279692424Sigh images like these make me nostalgic for the old internet
>>279692441I don't hate her. She is acting bitchy, but I love it. Love character like this, cause it makes them getting their comeuppance sweeter.
>>279692319It did. I have a very strong headcanon of who I consider racist characters like Nico, or Laura. What I was getting at is that Nico always sounded like she was hiding something for no good reason.
>>279692327She had her moments but I could never trust her. She feel like the type of character who would refer to primates with slurs because they're so genetically close to humans and then wonder why Teatine never invites her over to the healing garden for tea.
>>279692555I think you need to watch something else for a while anon.
>>279692555>TeatineBad example. I don't think she'd care if humans were wiped out if it meant protecting the planet.
>>279692281>Eas, Siren, Cure Fortune, Twilight, Ruru, Gentle, Cure NyammyThese were pretty in your face since their first appearance what their motivations were: dark cures were brainwashed and Iona was mad because Hime is a retard and Nyammy wanted to protect Mayu.
Meroron was starting to warm up to the cures and now she pulled a 180 and is trying to keep Purirun to herself and isolated from others. It would've been a logical progression if the lock's curse affected her but that doesn't seem to be the case, best answer I've seen is that she feels guilty about causing Purirun's amnesia so she's trying to collect the ribbons herself so she can return Purirun's memories.
Goes well with the overarching theme of characters feeling they need to do things alone without the help of others like Nana and Kokoro did in their focus episodes.
>>279692624Sure, I'll support Minori.
>>279692529I agree. I don't think she's being 100% selfish and has a somewhat reasonable justification, but I would also be happy to see Uta fix her attitude by punching her in the face, more so if she truly is being completely unreasonable
Meroron did nothing wrong
>>279692663Literally NO ONE asked about YOUR UGLY FUCKING PIG you RETARDED SACK OF SHIT
>>279692598At least she's honest about considering the final solution.
>>279692671The problem is Toei bans cure on cure violence. A slap may be fine? But at most, screaming at each other is as far as it will ever go
Remember: Little girls will cry. Remember that Dark Sky and corrupted Komugi didnโt do anything explicitly because these regulations
>>279692674I am a bit curious as to how the little girls feel about her now, especially since her Kirakilight was so popular.
>>279692226Can you remind me when? I don't remember any slaps in Precure
>>279692764Girls like drama like this in their shows desu. Well I do wonder if that carries onto the younger kids
>>279692780And before anyone goes hurdur Battamonda slapping Tsubasa, I obviously mean cure on cure slaps
>>279692679Toxic = poison
It's a joke, anon.
I want Meroron to step on me
>>279692663I want to hug her and squeeze that hair
>>279691813I like how you can tell their personalities a bit here. (Well yes Zukyoon is currently mind erased, but some of her personality remains)
Green and black... it all makes sense now...
>>279692780https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2NNK1Pu2QI
>>279692986I saw that reference earlier. I don't get it.
>>279693006green and black
>>279693000Oh shit yeah the movie, thanks
>>279692613>she pulled a 180Possessive girl doubling down on her obsession isn't doing a 180
>>279693000The hell is that from?
>>279693000surely this will happen again at some point just like Cure Black and Cure White fighting each other
oh wait
>>279692613Going towards a path/starting to warm doesn't mean she got there quite yet, thus the pulling back/relapsing thing is still reasonable given where her character was.
>>279693118Well she is called Cure kiss. Also that line about keeping your heart to herself might've also been a hint
>>279693165I can't believe we got a sexy yandere jiraikei fairy in a Precure season.
>>279693184>jiraikeiStop making up words.
>>279693000People always have to pull stuff from Fresh or earlier to show things that Precure can't do anymore, heh.
Even then they tried hard to hide the impact here, the SFX still does the heavy-lifting tho
>>279693220nobody tell him
>>279693248>>279693106Idol is doing a lot of stuff Precure hasn't done in a while or ever and the episode in a few weeks being Idol Precure vs. ZukyuunKiss could mean we could at least get a slap this season
Kiss doesnโt feel as impactful as Nyammy, the whole set up seems contrived in comparison to Nyammy being protective and for good reason
>>279693118I like this one more
>>279693309>Idol is doing a lot of stuff Precure hasn't done in a while or everLike?
>>279693334>Precures using their cure forms outside of battle>Precures being public figures>explicitly dead relatives of cures>evil fairies>cure vs. cure rivalriesI don't really see a slap happening but if there's one season that'll do it it's Idol.
>>279693319Both are in the wrong but Nyammy at least made sense. Meroron is running off of Purirun is mine now as far as anyone can tell.
>>279693432>evil fairiesWe just had Niko.
>>279693319Nyammy is a straightforward kind of arc, thematically it works but it's also frustrating because in a meta level a Precure fan WANTS to see her punching and kicking shit like a badass, yet the characters berate her for doing it.
In Kiss' case it's less straightforward, it has more of a poisonous edge to it, I don't think it's "contrived" because it's consistent both with what we saw of Meroron up to this point and fitting with the key and lock symbolism of the toy and transformation catchphrase. It's not something for everybody, but I think Kiss is a welcome change of pace, people who like "good" characters can still look forward to Cure Zukyoon recovering her memories.
Feels like Kimi to Idol is ok with a person not liking all characters, as long as they like someone.
>>279693454I hope they give her a good reason before forever tarnishing Meroronโs character as Crazy Bitch Alert
>>279693454Meroron makes sense, it's just her being stupid and very possessive. Tons of examples of shit like that irl. It's of course dumb and retarded, but it isn't unrealistic
>>279693509>tarnishingJokes on you, that's exactly what some people love.
bait used to be believable
>>279693500>it's also frustrating because in a meta level a Precure fan WANTS to see her punching and kickingNope, try again.
>>279693571Yeah, unfortunately you gave up. What are you even supposed to be reacting to?
>>279693587Precure fans like something introduced in 2004 and kept consistent for 20 years (with the odd year where they used cream rather than punches, but they still fought), surprise surprise.
>>279693569I guess. I probably would have obsessed over Meroron when I was younger but I donโt like her keeping Purirun away from her friends because I really like Purirun
>>279693637Keep bitching, it's very funny.
>>279693770discord was NOT happy that xhe was played for laughs
At the end of the latest episode too when Uta was genuinely happy to find out her friend was secretly her oshi was really nice. I was glad they subverted my expectations and made it a heartfelt moment instead of for comedic effect and itโs a bitch move for Meroron for not stepping in and explaining the situation
>>279693770My friend loved this character and said this was the best one in the series and I told him, โyou havenโt seen Rosemary yet whoโs actually a cool flamboyant characterโ
>>279693819>comedic effectThey had that too.
How was the japan reception ? Do we have metrics for how episodes perform?
>>279693841Henri was cool too.
>>279693770I hope human Purirun has clothes that cool
>>279693841Make your friend watch DP.
>>279693770The precure subreddit seemed to like the joke, except for one weirdo
>>279693770>>279693805It's not like they even made fun of xir, the gang was just surprised it wasn't Zukyoon after all.
why do people love posting reactions from twitter or reddit on to here
>>279693998Nana looks like an airheads balloon
>>279694005because reactions from here are just baits and fake outrage for yous.
>>279693432be honest did you skip the last decade or so of precure?
>>279693841>this was the best one in the seriesYour friend has peculiar tastes.
>>279692281I don't think Meoron's situation is the same as theirs. With the exception of Nyammy, all of them were enemies who became allies.
Nyammy wasn't an enemy, but she distrusted the others because she thought they would put Mayu in danger and preferred to resolve things with violence.
Meoron is an ally but she's keeping everyone in the dark about how she and Peorin obtained their powers for selfish reasons.
Reminder that Meroron will win
>>279694066Idol still does points 1 and 2 the most visibly/consistently of all seasons, so it counts as an unique trait.
It does point 3 way better than DP (it helps to heave brevity rather than making the deceased parent a narrator that dumbs down the show).
>>279694130She's doing it because Uta is a retarded slut who ruined her sister and doesn't want her ruining her again.
>>279693770I have a gut feeling that this person will be a recurring character.
>>279694214>a narrator that dumbs down the showif the narrator grandma insulted your intelligence it's because you are a retard
>>279694214>[grandma voice] Ara ara, what hapened to Meroron... Why is she going away?>[grandma voice] That night, Cure Kiss slapped Cure Zukyoon's ass.
Reporter feels like she would fit right in with Boombonger or a vehicle themed Precure season.
>>279694301Maybe she was supposed to be a Boonboomger reference, when this episode was written it probably still was airing.
>>279694214>a narrator that dumbs down the showBad taste confirmed.
>>279694301>>279694335I thought that was a boy going into the episode since I saw the name beforehand, and even during the livewatch I was thinking wow he's kinda feminine but it still didn't stick until anons pointed it out...
Yui's grandma was great. I wish we could have seen more of her.
>>279694501You just had to look at the heels. Also her voice is too feminine, young boy characters might get a neutral/feminine voice, but typically adults will get something more noticeably masculine.
>Meroron is a Kuromi-inspired Hot Topic mascot
>acts like a possessive menhera bitch
Pure pottery.
I didn't actually watch Boonboomger but the ED was so good I decided to pick up sentai afterwards. That mecha Michael Jackson bad guy was cool too.
>>279694187I don't see Meroron winning the Purirun bowl. I know yurifags love abusive relationships (I do too), but I don't think Precure would let that type of ship win when there's a more pure alternative available.
>>279694959So meroron will get cucked ? top precure season if it becomes true
>>279694959Meroron will bealready has been cucked by Uta and Nana will be there to catch the rebound
>>279694959still drawing purirun like a manโฆ
>>279694959I think focusing on Uta X Purirun might be a temporary thing, once the ship becomes "healthy" (aka Meroron becomes less possessive) we might get more PuriMero episodes in the future... Especially if they're truly hiding a Darkiine/Pikarine connection to both fairies, they could go from a greek tragedy to another type of greek tragedy (like Romeo and Juliet, ok that's Shakespeare but still).
>>279694959>I know yurifags love abusive relationships (I do too)HUH
>>279694959>I know yurifags love abusive relationshipsFuck you. Not everyone is mentally damaged.
>>279693500>but it's also frustrating because in a meta level a Precure fan WANTS to see her punching and kicking shit like a badassThe T-rex fight made me mad, they almost died and they were STILL holding back.
>>279691973Splash Star ED2 is the best song in the whole franchise
it's been months and you retards still don't understand why they don't punch the animals
>>279695161Fuck you, boring retard
>>279695253Friends with you is the best song.
>>279695295If it's boring to like nice relationships then I guess I am.
PRIME DIRECTIVE:
1. Protect Cure Idol
2. Eat a lot
3. Puri?
4. SECRET
>>279695025>Nana was the character most supportive of Purirun/MeroronMan, imagine if Mayu had to deal with her ship no longer being something cute and wholesome.
>>279695073That seems as plausible as any other scenario right now. It's been like this for few episodes now, but I have 100% no idea where they are going with all of this.
>>279695073>like Romeo and JulietSo we might get a good version of the Hirogaru Sky final arc?
>>279695595That doesn't even make sense.
>>279695670he's been baiting for yous for a while now.
I think Toei Animation Museum inadvertently tweeted about the next Precure movie.
Looks like it will be shown in movie theaters on September 12.
>>279695670Cure Noble and Kaiserin were princesses, and tried to be friends for a bit, then both nations had a big war.
>>279695705Isn't the movie date always pretty consistent?
>>279695774Kind of, September or October.
The more interesting part here is the movie title:
>ๆ ็ปใญใใจใขใคใใซใใชใญใฅใขใๅพ

>>279695865They are waiting for (you)
>>279695865How is it interesting when itโs a super generic title for an idol thing?
It could be the title of some concert, even
Tells me nothing. Unlike the Wonderful movieโs title that tells you about the videogame aspect
>>279695865And what's the title?
>>279695865I see absolutely nothing interesting about that title.
>>279695996>>279695997Itโs going to be a concert movie hence the โkimi ni todekeru raibuโ
>>279696087wow just like the promo image we've already seen!
so shocking!!
>>279696087>Idol movie is a concertWere you also surprised when the wonderful movie involved chasing and calming down a raging animal?
>>279695967>How is it interesting when itโs a super generic title for an idol thing?The lack of surprise is interesting.
>>279695865>You and Idol Precure: Thanks for Waiting! A Sparkling Live Show Just for You!"The "thanks for waiting" part sounds like it'll focus in the backstage behind the scenes of an idol live? Maybe that's also why there's a cameraman in the movie poster, maybe the concept is focusing not just in the "idol" aspect, but the effort that goes behind making it happen.
I guess you could compare it to other classic episodes like Hugtto with Saaya and her mom working in a movie, and the behind the scenes effort.
>>279696087I can totally imagine the movie being like two parts, with the first part being plot and the second half being tons of songs... or maybe the last 1/3 of the movie could be songs? In any case, could turn out to be surprisingly good or some sort of modern day Haru no Carnival (I don't want to sound like a doomer uttering this, I legit think it still could be a good movie)
>>279696153Go waych isekai anime. Theyโd be super interesting to someone like you
>>279696184Aikatsu also had episodes like this, and guess who's the main writer of Kimi to Idol?
>>279695865>the idolp movie is A FUCKING CLIPSHOW with every character doing their 3DCG Idol Dimension show like we're a goddamn recap episode of AiPri/PriChanWell there you go. Guess it couldn't all be good.
You forgot your rola avatar
>>279696184>or maybe the last 1/3 of the movie could be songs?It could be a good opportunity for everyone at the cinema to shake their KirakiLights for a good amount of time.
>>279696255Why are you so jumpy? There's a new bit of information about the new Precure movie that's it, no need to be a bitch.
>>279696323A hack that shouldn't be near any shows?
>>279696422>This person worked in franchises other than Precure? Sacrilege!The world doesn't care about your tribalistic views.
Idol Precure is Uta's harem.
Meroron will be next after Purirun has settled down.
>>279696336>3DCG Idol Dimension showThey are being very efficient this year by reusing the same CGI shit stage everywhere.
>>279696462I didn't say that nor do I feel that way.
>>279696479>>279696336Why haven't you complained in every other season how all the henshins and finishers always have the same backgrounds no matter where the fight happens?
This Precure season needed a sequel.
Bonus: This dad created the best Cure.
>>279696389You said lack of surprise is interesting and thus I reccomend the anime that best embody โno surprise, everโ
The title is objectively no different from Idol Precure Movie. It says nothing more than those words already say
I legit donโt see how this title is in any way interesting
Precure sequel idea: Wonderful where the girls are adults and the animals are elderly. Stuff happens and they transform one last time as the owners now have to cope with their pets dying.
>>279696663Because he's trying to disguise the "CGI bad" argument to sound more intelligent, but it's actually just rambling nonsense.
GoPri actually used more CGI than Idol because they used it for special attacks and finishers, Idol just uses it for finishers and at least the songs are catchy (most of the time).
>>279696678WP is the least likely season to get a sequel project of any kind, at least not one with them as adults.
>>279695865https://startheaters.jp/theaters/2/movies/1459
It's up here too. It's probably going up later today?
>>279695865I wonder if we'll get a movie original group finisher because there's certainly a new song for it, or if they'll just be lazy and play ED2 or something
I like voluminous hair as much as the next guy butI really want more cures with short hair.
>>279696759>It's probably going up later today?Hopefully, the Toei Museum account made a mistake but it looks like they are ready to announce new details.

The fairies are not adults in their human/cure forms because they're fucking flat.
Pick any precure season. Now which cure in that season has the worst design?
>>279697998>>279698063I'm sorry you're a literal 80 IQ midwit who probably hasn't read a single book since high school, if that. Try picking up some Pirsig, Proust, Joyce first. It will unironically allow you to enjoy Precure at a higher level.
I feel really sorry that this thread is completely full of closed thinking Apple-5 visualizers. You really can't see that Meroron is in the middle of a very pivotal character arc? It just started, and you're criticizing a "conclusion" that you just made up inside of your head. There are multiple conflicts going on inside of her right now. Yes she has flaws, just like everyone does. That does not make her a bad person. Also, you need to remember that Purirun started this whole thing, Purirun wanted it, Purirun chose it.
I for one welcome our new toxic yuri overlordsโฆ Iโm excited for Meroron to get worse before she gets better.

>>279698835Yeah even JP friends are wondering why this season for a kids show is so overtly adult-themed, near-sexualized, and downright sultry. Kiss in particular
>>279698817Uta looks like a hair puller, I think she'd win
>>279691973Kira's second ED was better, as well as ST's, you're just full of shit.
>>279698835when's the last time you watched a kids show that wasn't precure?
the 90's?
Seems like normalfags don't get that Meroron says all this affectionate stuff towards Purirun.
>>279692764I strongly doubt children are reading into this as much as we are.
>>279698905>Kira's second ED was better, as well as ST'sNot him but that's debatable.
>>279698889sure this ain't a bot ? typa username
>>279698835Kids shows became abnormally safe. There was a time when Victory Gundam, a show where every episode has at least one death in it, was billed as a lighthearted show for children. Obviously, we don't need Tomino's misery fests on Sunday mornings, but it's nice to see Precure push for at least a little bit of edge.
An ADULT FUCKING WOMAN on television is telling kids
>LET'S KISS EACH OTHER
Are you guys blind or what?
>>279699100its to make sure the girls will grow up and have children
>>279698889>1 person from twitter who isn't even popular is a reflection of the whole JP demographic
>>279698889>adult-themed, near-sexualized, and downright sultryNo clue what you mean. This was posted by the character designer for Idol, by the way.
>>279699080>it's nice to see Precure push for at least a little bit of edge....precure is the only kids show you watch isn't it
Age wasn't nice to Henri.
>>279698417>80 IQ midwitYou don't know what midwit means. It refers to people with IQs about 110 to 130, so someone like you.
>>279699100girls can't love girls
>>279699195>midwitHuh but that wouldn't fit the "mid" part
>>279699167this will probably be the weirdest and most unexpected scene of the season
>>279699080>it's nice to see Precure push for at least a little bit of edge.
>>279699100there are actual Idols who do this stuff. Idk if they do it towards kids though, maybe they do
>>279699225Most unexpected was "Guess what? The lock is cursed."
>>279699080>it's nice to see Precure push for at least a little bit of edge.
>>279699080You say that like dark stuff has never happened in Precure.
>>279699080Kamen Rider still has some edge every now and then, but it isn't as constant as the early 2000s seasons.
>>279699220That doesn't really matter. It's used academically to refer to people that are slightly smarter than average and because of that can excel by repeating what they've been told and memorizing facts, rather than ever innovating or doing anything useful.
>>279696336>the retard is seeing corner demons again
>>279696664Wonderful, but make Iroha and Mayu detectives.
The people who intentionally watch shows made for kids and then get all hyped when it does something slightly edgy and demand more are insufferable faggots. Like just watch something else.
>>279699324>every now and theneven the basic "muh dead girlfriend","evil dad", or just riders fighting each other is heavy by precure standards
>>279696336>>279696479this is bait. You know there isn't enough footage to do a pripara or bangdream style performance concert
>>279698377Black Suit Muse. Even then I don't hate it.
>>279699324Kamen Rider is aimed at an older audience than Precure, a much closer comparison would be Super Sentai.
>>279699324Rider is a notch above Sentai.
>>279699452I think Gavv (current season) has some tasteful edge, you have the monsters transforming humans into material for dark candy which is basically the equivalent of cocaine for the monster dimension.
In one hand you have humans dying to become food for monsters (and not even "necessary" food, basically just a pleasure drug), in the other hand you have the monster society and characters trying to fight against the black market.
It's a violent worldview but at the same time it isn't necessarily "gory", so you can show to kids.
>>279699600Evil controlling fairy.
>>279698889Are we watching the same show? Seriously what are you talking about?
>>279699670I think he means the cures are hot.
>>279699697The designs are just a little bit more sexual than previous years.
>>279694874Just keep in mind that it isn't nearly the best sentai has to offer.
Seems Cure Kiss got people down bad eh
>>279699744I don't like her approach at least.
>>279699744I love Meroron. She do be needing some punishment tho
>>279699744Purirun is Meroron's property.
There's absolutely NOTHING wrong with Meroron keeping what's rightfully hers.
just because some of you wear diapers while watching precure that doesn't make it a "baby show". I don't know why you're all so desperate to call it preschool when it's closer to modren mlp and other tv Y7 slop in the west.
>>279699452oh no, he put the scawy bugs inside of her
>>279699938Fuck off back to your containment board.
Sigh cried at anime clips for the second time today
Was there ever any official explanation as to why they changed the "Precure" logo from katana to hiragana in WP?
>>279700050It's easier for Komugi to read
>>279700050one of them is learned before the other
>>279700050Because it was literally the toddlerest babbyfied season they ever made, it was intentional.
>>279700050dunno but it's a very cute logo
>>279700077>Get make-up merch series>Makes logo hiragana and remove fightingI don't get it, why they pulled the franchise in one direction when it should've been the other one? If they want the older little girls to buy make-up, I don't think that's the way to go about it.
>>279700129>I don't think that's the way to go about it.Wonderful was incredibly popular so reality disagrees with you
>>279700175me behind the counter secretly jorkin it to butt wiggles
>>279700050because the lead is a literal dog
>>279700179That was a good one.
>>279691851Yeah, my girl is one of those and she loves Meroron.
Watching Fresh precure. Forgot that the transformations sometimes make the girls go in automatic mode. (i.e Miki and Love instantly know the transformation catchphrase)
>>279700243This gif would have made the rounds if it was around in the 2000s probably with some rainbow effects and music in Flash or YTMND
>>279700296>Forgot that the transformations sometimes make the girls go in automatic modeI hate that. It's creepy.
Heartcatch did it the right way.
>>279700517It's def odd to think about. Miki automatically knew how to use one of her moves when Love prompted her too
>>279699452i look like that guy
>>279700705imagine fucking to the beat of the splash star opening.
>>279699178Don't worry, he did fuck off
He fucked off so hard he showed up along the support characters instead of the special cures in ASF
Also the fresh girls have eyes that feel like they stare into my soul. Esp Love's
>>279700865A couple of cuties! And Tsubomi I guess.
>>279700296>>279700517>>279700740FW reference, don't think about it too hard
>>279700908Tsubomi is the cutest.
But what about sweetiecutiebomi?
>>279700901Fresh was very off-putting to me.
>>279700942Slowly draining the life from your soul
Which Pink could carry/lead the rest of the pinks?
Tsubomi is so perfect. Best pink.
>>279701151Best leader? Nozomi, Tsubomi, Haruka, or Love would be good.
>>279701264She's a horrible leader. Do everything myself and fuck my team doesn't exactly make for good leader material.
I wonder if anon will still have temper tantrums over Mana ten years from now
>>279701395Maybe not that specific anon, but I believe one anon will. I wonder if Meroron will have a similarly long lasting legacy.
>>279701395I wonder why you think it's just one anon.
>>279701520Still tweets precure stuff
>>279701520She went into depression after working on Mirai Dayzzzz.
>>279701545Yeah but she's not working on Idol so far, is she? I was kind of hoping she'd work on a transformation this year.
>>279701431>I wonder if Meroron will have a similarly long lasting legacy.Most likely she'll be redeemed so everything with her should end up fine. I doubt she'll be cold forever.
>>279701520I don't miss the slideshows
>>279701584Anon she got a big project in her hands just a few months ago.
>>279701702When you put it that way I guess it was a little silly to expect her to jump to Idol that quickly.
>>279701555Donโt you mean coma
>>279701584She's a character designer in another show right now, right?
Anyway you know she'll eventually show up in a big climax
>>279692555lmao good post
>samefagging this late
absolutely pathetic
>>279699080I mentioned Precure should have added some edge to it and everyone attacked me for it, but now the show does just that and everyone here eats it up.
Fucking sheep. Don't reply to me either.
Lol you can really know the automatic control sequence when Cure Pine first transforms
>>279702137>Don't reply to me either.
>>279702137have tried not acting like a retard
>>279691851It's funny to look at early interpretations of PuriMero, to think the actual show had the most "realistic" design.
>>279702137I'll say the same thing I said to him earlier, you say that like dark stuff has never happened in Precure.
How many seasons have you seen?
Finished 3 eps of fresh. Okay so far, characters are ok. Eas def the most interesting
>>279702350Are you another newfag doing production order? Or are you coming from a more recent season.
>>279702350What do you think of the fairies?
>>279702392I finished Maho and did half of ST, but that was ages ago. Watching a season I remember having a design I liked when I saw it from somewhere (Eas). I'll probably watch all of the seasons during this Summer
Precure is never having a loli Cure again.
>>279702422I have no real thoughts on them atm. They're cute to look at, however
>>279702350The Fresh intro eps are decent, the show doesn't start very explosive but I think it gains momentum really quick, starting with episode 5-6 and on.
i've been out of the loop for a while but I thought the bath towels were gone from transformations? putting them on tall flat hags is kinda lewd
>pedos are really crying about about which little girl show has more tits and ass
eww
>>279702485>flat95% of cures are flat
how is this a complaint
>>279699308she should fart
>>279702514it's more lewd when they're hags
>>279702492Did you click on the wrong thread?
>>279701344oh no, a leader who actually leads the charge into battle how awful
>>279702480I think I'll talk about my thoughts on every 3 eps, and what I liked and disliked. Is blogposting fine here?
>>279702631A lot of people blogpost their Precure journey, just don't post 10 screenshots every episode.
>>279702392Has there been an influx of newfags going in production order? I'm the one doing a series a month.
>>279702660Noted, I'm watching on my firestick so I can't post screenies anyway
Why is Tarte the all-time least favorite fairy?
>>279702660>just don't post 10 screenshots every episodeNot him but I tend to post a lot when I post about an episode.
>>279702725I don't like the ferret but even I know that's not true.
>>279702624Why is Kokoro freaking out about my dick size?
>>279702575A leader usually leads, not does all the work and makes her friends look like losers.
>>279701612I don't think the season will go this far, especially since Meroron is letting Purirun go along with the picnic next episode, but 2 or 3 episodes of the show putting Meroron in an even more negative light might end up scarring /pc/ for a few years regardless if she is properly "redeemed" or not.
>>279702725Tarte used to be a consistent favorite, but people don't mention him as much nowadays.
I don't think it means he's disliked tho
>>279702876DP looks cool.
>>279702878MeroronCHADS will stay true to /ourqueen/, the world might hate us, but we know our cause is noble.
>>279702920Ah, that show literally is doing the pripara-aikatsu thing of meeting a new eccentric girl each week, what a joke,
HPC11

>>279702989Pripara doesn't even do that, it's more of a Heartcatch thing (and other Precure shows with victims of the week).
Uta is reasonably pretty but not exactly hot.
>>279702878Not only will she be redeemed, she will agree that Uta is a good girl and become friends with her.
>>279702517Which idol would you want to f*rt?
>>279703105Would you be fine with this ? Or would you prefer the show to subvert our expectations like it did now
>>279703030My wife is trying her best.
>>279702672I'm the guy doing production order that finished up DokiDoki last month, I only do so because I want to see how the franchise progressed as it goes on. I don't like skipping episodes or seasons just to jump to the 'best' season or seasons. I guess I'll start up HappinessCharge soon for lack of anything else to do.
>>279703137>Would you be fine with thisYeah, it is Precure.
Wouldn't it be funny if it were revealed next episode that Meroron tied up Purirun at night to make absolutely sure she wouldn't leave the bed while she was sleeping? It would be a great way of showing how off the deep end Meroron is.
Oh wait nevermind, that was revealed in episode 15.
You guys think the Precure fandom is way more forgiving than it actually is.
>Pollun: Terrible brat in the original. Perfect and doesn't do a single thing wrong in Max Heart. Still hated.
>Milky Rose: Fairly unkind in the original. Perfectly fine in Go Go. Hated.
>Nuts: Is only a jerk for maybe his first 2-3 episodes. Still hated by the fandom due to getting off on the wrong foot.
>Chiffon: Literal baby. Still largely despised by the fanbase for being difficult in early episodes.
>>279703112Is Hamori an idol?
>>279703228Kurumi, Nuts, and Chiffon are not hated.
>>279703090This scene really reminded me of Seiji fighting in HaCha.
>>279703228Porun was good when he got a pussy to fuck.
Nuts was cool and a much-needed balance with the mostly female cast.
Chiffon was a good plot device.
Milky Rose was fine until the 'reveal'. Irredeemable after that.
I don't like how Megumi makes fun of girls that are fat and/or ugly.
>>279703362>Porun was good when he got a pussy to fuck.anon he's the fairy equivalent of a 2-4 year old
>>279703362Again, Kurumi is not hated.
>>279703409He manned up when she showed up, so he's already on his way to learning what girls are for.
>>279703436Hi Milky Rose.
Remember when Karen was the least popular Cure ever? Good times.
I think Kimi to Idol has the most chaotic staff in a long time, in a good way.
>>279703605Is it because you will never be Nodoka's boyfriend?
>>279692986I wonder if we'll ever get a W style Precure made out of two different girls.
>>279703623You don't know that...
>>279703557>be the staff>try to make a fun light hearted season>slap in a dramatic amnesia arcI have no idea what drugs they are on, but I am at least having fun...
The Mayu Luv crowd has been quiet lately. Was Mayu just a fling for them?
>>279703640It happened in a novel, so maybe it can happen in mainline.
Who's stronger God Ha-chan or Cure Supreme
>>279703730Thanks, I couldn't find this image in my folders.
>>279703757Mayu was my favorite girl in Wonderful, but Uta, Kokoro, Purirun, and Meroron mog her pretty easily (sorry Nana), so I haven't had a reason to keep Mayu in mind
>>279692161A very NOT happy Fatherโs Day to the franchiseโs objectively worst dad that is deadbeat George.

>same shitpost
>same bait
how boring you are
>>279704084Bad fanfiction.
>>279704095First, you retarded.
Second, Idol is a brand new show, it can make new characters. Maho2 is still a follow up to Maho1, it makes no sense for Mirai or Liko to suddenly become sultry characters like Meroron/Cure Kiss.
>>279704095>mainlineWhat did you mean by that? That word is being used by idiots here lately and I've never really seen it here before.
>>279699938>Precure>not preschool showExplain then why even 7 year olds in Japan are embarrassed to admit they still watch Precure and would get bullied for it?
>>279704238>7 year olds in Japan are embarrassed to admit they still watch Precurepost proof
>>279704238This is made up btw.
>>279704301>>279704301Just look through the archives, I remember one /pc/ anon mentioning that when they were working as a teacher in Japan Precure was already considered too babyish by the time you hit 1st grade.
>>279704391It doesn't add up. In the case of Sentai you still have 11-12 year old boys fully into it. Precure is mostly for girls, so they have an easier time liking cute stuff like Precure.
Even Toei has said that some of their demographic is growing up and adjusted some seasons to grow with the target audience.
>>279704391have you considered that people can lie on the internet?
>>279703101Swimsuit episode when? Uta would wear hottest swimsuit in loli gumi.
>>279704513>Even Toei has said that some of their demographic is growing up and adjusted some seasons to grow with the target audience.Which seasons?
>>279704088>our work here is done.Thanks for admitting it was all a trolling campaign.
>>279704391That makes no sense. I was in 1st grade once (1994-1995). We only made fun of real bottom-of-the-barrel stuff like Barney. Regular cartoons were fine and Precure is a good show. I seriously doubt 6-7 year olds are bullied for liking it.
>>279704637Yes5 and Fresh are the ones I can remember at the moment.
>>279704158Mainline just means the Sunday morning seasons instead of stuff like the late night sequels or other material like manga/novels/stage shows/etc
stop defending the abusive lesbian. the show is bad now, and you should feel bad for defending it
Holy fuck I took 800 caps this episode.
>>279704714you sound like a landwhale
>>279704657>BarneyThatโs what Precure is considered the equivalent of back in Japan apparently, itโs in the Kodomo anime genre, hence the Kigs.
Only anime aimed at literal toddlers get official Kigs and Kig shows, regular anime shows would never.
>>279704391you really think someone from /a/ knows how elementary girls in fucking japan treat each other?

>>279704754Have you ever actually watched Barney the Dinosaur? I have. I still have
Barney's Great Adventure on VHS, which I've watched a couple dozen times.
>>279704763I hope Butterfly, Kiss, and Zukyoon means future seasons will have more hag cures
>>279703605Yup that's what happens when you watch HG
>>279704762>you really think someone from /a/ knows how elementary girls in fucking japan treat each other?Yes because he said he works as a teacher there and knows Japanese enough to observe their social dynamics.
>>279704908>because he said soand there's your first mistake
>>279704862This post is cute...
Was feeling nothing with Torame so far but this was cute
>>279704391>national treasure, even showing up in special tv events that replace its time slot, being in precure is seen as a rite of passage for young VA's, packed stadiums for both family stage shows and adult anniversary concerts, etc>"n-n-no it's t-treated like Japanese Barney (which they have actual equivalents to) by six year olds, anon s-said!"kill yourself, schizo.
>>279704979That and the next one are probably the best Torame episodes.
>>279704979He really shines from there on
>>279704875We need more loli cures to balance it out. In 20+ years we've had three.
>>279704714I don't defend Yukari but I still love Kirakira.
>>279705151That episode tore me up.
>Kokoro images Tanaka with fluffy hair
>My heart is going kyun kyun for a second
What did she mean by this
Is she attracted to her producer-san
>>279704980Both can be true. Japanese civilians are extremely infantilized by western standards. Comparing it to Barney is quite dumb because of the cultural differences too. I would argue it's closer to Disney, Barbie, or something in that realm, with kids as a main audience but having that adult appeal as well. Pretty Holic has been expanding into the teenage market too.
>>279705151All downhill from here
>>279705186She thought it was funny.
>>279705151As someone who lost multiple pets, it hurts the worse when you have to put them down yourself.
>>279705193>Japanese civilians are extremely infantilized by western standards.is that what chatgpt told you?
>>279704980>Packed stadiums for both family stage shows and adult anniversary concertsWhen they did the 20th Anniversary concert they did a 3 day show.
First day was during the night, with the Cure VAs singing the opening and endings, plus some kigs dancing at the end
Day 2 was during the day and it was a big kig show, it had a story that went throughout the whole show, there was also a new character that looked like crap, but it was cute enough for the kids I guess, the kigs interacted with it, etc. Most of the VAs didn't show up in this show, only during the final dance I think.
Day 3 was just like day 1, also a night concert, with all the VAs dancing and singing.
>>279705151I wish Satoru had died in its place
>>279705293No I wrote it so that you would reply to my post
Sure is smelling like summer in hereโฆ Itโs been an accepted fact for years now on /pc/ that Precure is baby show for babies and yet we enjoy it anyways because weโre autists, newfags out!
>>279705186She thought it was so funny that her heart problems started acting up a bit.
Precure dads always ready to steal a treat.
>>279705328Now that I'm finally catching up I don't get this meme
Getting so aggressive over one of the most harmless support characters of the franchise who got 3 episodes for himself at best and only gives the cures some animal facts to help beat the monsters. It's easy to tell what kind of reactions are influenced by the show and the ones influenced by just letting /pc/ get to your head

I remember seeing some post about how a 10 year old boy had to sneak into a theater to watch a Kamen Rider movie because his friends would bully him for still liking it.

>>279706030>how the plot was resolved was a trainwreckI didn't have a problem with that.
>>279705971HS literally didn't have a plot. Cute characters didn't save the series (and Ellee is living psychological horror)
>>279705959>Doesn't consider any season at least "good" for over 10+ yearsLegit why you're here, go find a new franchise or hobby.
>>279706103>why you're here
esl avatarfag still hasn't given up his gimmick?
Usually by ep20 there would be multiple bad episodes and signs that season is running out of steam.
No such thing with Idol. It's going amazing.
>>279706165>Usually by ep20 there would be multiple bad episodesNo? Precure is generally pretty stable early on.
>>279706165The few kind of meh episodes are reserved for the first 13 episodes pretty much. 14 on has been full steam ahead.
My dog-wife mugi is so cute
>>279706159God forbid the thread find more of a use for Sango than the show ever did.
>>279706246Sango is one of the strongest shield users.
Meeting lower lips with you!
>>279706277I mean, her enemies weren't that strong to begin with
>>279706165I think the only episode I didn't "like" was maybe ep10 (the CD debut, which still had slime Kokoro and the cute scene at the end) and ep13 (specifically the volleyball scenes were kinda boring, the beginning and end with Wakaba were good).
Looking at the episode list... Yeah I enjoyed the great majority of them.
>>279706299You don't know that.
>>279706159Learn English.
Imagine the Yunico episode...
>>279706316They didn't even have "dark lord" powers or anything, just regular ass servants from the ocean.
>>279706331These cure owe sex to each other.
>>279706277One of the strongest, but not THE strongest

>>279706333You forgot how the monsters were summoned, didn't you?
>>279706292Probably one of the lewdest matches of "visual" + "dialogue" in the whole franchise.
>>279706367As far as shields go
Komachi > Sango = Kokone > Alice > Itsuki
>>279706400>Sango = Kokone
>Sango fag is delusional again
sad to see
>>279706277Based on what?
Which cures can brap the hardest?
>>279706422They both had really strong and useful shields.
This henshin is more sex charged than Smile henshins. This is actually crazy.
>>279706689It isn't even as good as Emiruru's.
