>I don't remember Alice being interested in her tho?
When asking around about the single Cures, Alice decided to go for one that's very different from Mana, just to try the waters, and from those Yayoi interested her the most.

Erika mk.4

>Yuuko
Only somewhat different character

>Iona
MakoP mk.2

And the incest if Tender gets in and is paired with Iona is already covered by the Kiryuu sisters.

>>2207150
I don't see how Megumi resembles Mana. More like an extroverted Tsubomi.

>>2207150
You're thinking is too narrow minded
Their personalities could have some serious changes based on what happens between the anime and Dissonance
>And the incest if Tender gets in
I thought only the main 4? And you can never have enough siscest

None of the pinks except Love and Mana are very interesting. Nozomi? eh. Tsubomi? meh. Miyuki? eh meh. Hibiki? Boring without constant tsun fighting. If you wanna count Nagisa and Saki as 'pinks' then they're also part of the meh circle.

With a girl like Hime, she would only end up like Erika if she was actually really smart and capable and she really isn't. She is gonna get a super reality check, like Urara did, and turn into nega-Erika.

>>2207150
>Mana but straight.
I say Megumi is by.

>>2207777
Well, down the line she'll get hitched to another girl anyway because no one stays straight forever in dissonance
Not even nozomi. Who I suspect is stuck with bad end miyuki now, and bad end miyuki was very hands on with dark dream apparently

>>2207777
Megumi's by what? By the ocean? By her boyfriend? By jove she's straight? Enquiring minds want to know.

>>2207150
Go Pri wouldn't bring anything new either...unless they have interesting personalities.

>>2208089
Well Haruka will be jelly as fuck of Hime
Minami feels kinda like Alice-Beta
Kirara is gonna really clash with Miki since they both have an ego and she's also gonna cause a stir with Urara and Rin.
Towa is gonna shit all over Hime and yet another girl to include in the ever growing list of that group-that-was-enemies-once (Kiryuus, Setsuna, Ellen, Yami, Regina)

We still don't know who the potential 5th include of HaCha is

>>2208226
Why Hime specifically? There's also Erika, Regina and Yami.

>>2208227
Haruka is jelly because Hime is an actual princess
Towa is also a real princess but not a spoiled mongrel so she will be really harsh towards Hime. Ako might treat Hime badly, too.
Depending on how well Towa is developed, it's hard to tell which of the two will treat Hime worse. I guess it also depends on whether Hime changed.
I want to see Towa and Ako team up to lecture Hime and train her on being a proper princess

>>2208226
Itsuki will totally fangirl over Kirara since they are both into modeling.

>>2208337
Miki and Yuri are the models, Itsuki just helps out Erika sometimes
with the sheer mass of girls we have in dissonance there will always be interesting interactions somewhere

>try to read Dissonance
>Yuri and Miki hook up because Miki looks like Momoka

this story is stupid

>>2208530
If you have to look that hard to find something stupid the story must be good

Miki is attracted to Yuri for various reasons and Yuri dumps Momoka for various reasons as well, including her becoming a liability if more enemies ever show up.

>>2208548

this is close to the beginning

seeing it has made me not want to read more

if the foundation of something is stupid it's gonna cast a pall over everything else

it doesn't make me want to read more

>>2208586
>the foundation of the entire fic is Yuri and Miki
Anon, please
And I don't see how it is stupid to begin with. Not agreeing with it is not the same as it being stupid.

>>2208530
It's shitty fanfiction. Of course it's stupid.

>>2208594

it makes Yuri and Miki look extraordinarily shallow, that's why it's stupid

>>2208598
So you're just ignoring everything they say other than "Miki looks like Momoka"?
And Miki has a fair bit of vanity going on, of course she'd go for someone hot.

>>2209111
Looks like Yuri has some comrades now. I hope they are the gayest ones. Especially because one of their cure names is macaron.

I wonder if there's a pattern.

Smile was balanced. That is, not very gay, not very het.
DokiDoki was gay.
HaCha was het.
GoPri was balanced.
Maho was gay.

Therefore, KiraKira will be het?

>>2209136
Suite came before Smile and while it wasn't the gayest it was gayer than Smile. So that patter doesn't really work.

Haven't Cures never been older than junior high age? I'm actually kind of worried that the writters will think that high school girls = always thinking about getting boyfriends.

>>2209596
There has been a high school aged cure.
Refer to:
>>2209122
>Looks like Yuri has some comrades now.

Komachi and Karen were in high school during Yes GoGo
Just sayin'

>>2209596
That depends entirely on who the writer is and how many slice of life highschool 4-5 girl anime they have watched.

>>2208699
In case anyone needed translations (romaji unconfirmed)

>Pink protagonist is Cure Whip (Ichika Usami): Shortcake and rabbit motif, Middle school 2nd year
>Yellow is Cure Custard (Himari Arisugawa): Pudding and squirrel motif, Middle school 2nd year
>Blue is Cure Gelato (Aoi Tategami), Ice cream and lion motif, Middle school 2nd year
>Purple is Cure Macaron (Yukari Kotozume), Macaron and cat motif, High school 2nd year
>Red is Cure Chocola (Akira Kenjou), Chocolate and dog motif, High school 2nd year
>Fairy mascot is called Pekorin.

They really like matching purple with cats, don't they. I get the feeling they didn't do their research when they decided to combine chocolate and dog for the Red cure.

>>2209620
Toei and research? Anon, are you okay? How many dimensions did you hop?
Also those names are awful beyond all measure. I can already see Cure Fanta making fun of them.

>>2209620
red and purple together?

>>2209649
I hope so. Or maybe Macaron will seduce one of the younger girls.
Either way, Macaron has to be gay.
>Macaron and cat motif
She HAS to be.

>>2209620
>Cure Whip
The BDSM doujins write themselves.

>>2209725
I wonder why they didn't go with Cream? It suits the theme much better than Whip does,

>>2209727
I'm guessing Whip has less dubious innuendos.

>>2209729
Whipped cream

>>2209136

>Maho was gay.

Oh yeah, Maho Marathon here i come and cum too.

If Toei gives us an Onee-san Cure whose motifs are purple, macaron, and cats, and then somehow make her not gay then they are officially the biggest fuck ups on the planet.

Happened across this little gem of QUALITY on a re-watch of New Stage 2.
It takes Mana all of 5 minutes of getting to know another cure before she puts hands on them.

>>2209136
That pattern didn't suit any pre-Smile series, and Maho isn't that gay. It simply doesn't have any het. I'd put its gayness on the same level as Smile.

>>2213120
>Maho isn't that gay
>Half of it is about how Mirai and Liko relationship grows and is accepted by the rest of the cast

Not sure if joke.

>>2213462
Strawman. That's like saying Smile is super gay just because 95% of its duration is about girls improving their closeness with each other.

>>2213717
Smile is super gay because of Miyuki x Yayoi.

Maho is about two moms raising their adopted daughter together.

>>2213855
If it helps you sleep at night.

I would say that the first half of Mahou is pretty gay, but after Ha-chan becomes a Cure it dives pretty significantly.

2. HeartCatch
3. Splash Star

>>2219969
Even if doki doki is the gayest I wouldn't really pick that one for someone getting into precure since aside from the gay it's not that great. Hell all of the gay is really just a cult of personality around the main character which might be fine for some people, but all the Mana worship just started to turn me off from doki the more it happened. It's still better than Happiness Charge though. That one was just an all around disappointment and to make things worse it was as far from /u/ as you could get.

>>2220323
Hmm, I do prefer a well developed slighty less gay relationship instead of a nonsensical harem...

So Akira might pull either a Haruka or an Itsuki.

Damn toei for making me interested in a la mode.

Pretty sure it didn't happen with Itsuki. Her ordeal was more that she had to act like a boy because of her family and wanted to enjoy cute things. It applies a little to Nagisa though.

And yes, Akira will most definitely be female.

>>2221925
>Also are we 100% sure this red Cure is female? I'm having serious doubts.

A male Cure would be a terrible idea, and not because I don't like male Cures. It's practically impossible to do right: Too little focus and people will complain that the male is there only as pandering; too much focus and people will complain that the male is overshadowing the female characters. And if they try to balance the screen time between the male and the females we'll get both types of complaints: Some will complain that the male is not getting enough attention because he's the first male Cure and the only male main character, so of course he should get some extra focus; other will complain that he's getting too much attention because in the end he's just one character and they should focus more on the females, because that's what Precure is all about.

And that's just the most obvious type of complaints we'll get. I'm sure there will be a lot more, but I don't want to even think about them.

>>2222362
The transformation scenes will also be very awkward to watch.

>>2221667
>>2221717
The character designs are by Ino Marie. She did work as a key animator on Heartcatch and Casshern Sins so she's probably derived some of her style from Umakoshi's

>>2224442
I can't see that as something positive.

>>2224442
Ah, yes, that would explain it.

They could also do something really stupid like make everyone in the world a wizard.
Or remove magic entirely. Then what? They wouldn't really be precure then.
Or just make magic available to everyone and then everything turns to shit the same way it did in Doki, just faster, much faster. And I can't see her pull that same scenario, so, I think, she would drop the season.

>>2238109
>Or remove magic entirely.
Permanent depowering at the end of the series will look rather odd in a post-season Maho movie or All Star movie. I don't think they will do this.

>Or just make magic available to everyone
If this happens, maybe the Maho girls will be in that sweet spot where everything is perfect right before it all goes to shit.
The Maho girls will say how happy the world is now that everyone has magic while the DokiDoki group stares in horror.

Welperino, Maho spoiler
the worlds just merged in Maho

Wait, but what about all those clear flags pointing to Mirai and Riko having to separate?

Also Maho Girls could still work, since, well technically Riko and Mirai aren't the same species, and Riko's does have the whole law of not showing magic to normal people.

Also the worlds may not stay together.

They started discussing the universe and setting and human nature and history and society at a level so deep that I couldn't understand them anymore in the channel. After some mandatory initial super rage salt. Knowing Kuugen she'll find a way to make it work. She was saying she will not include Maho cuz if they make magic available to everyone, mainly cuz it would just be Doki V2.0 and she doesn't want to rehash that plot. But then she went on about the origin of the magic world and human population counts and I cannot even begin to explain how much you need to think about this shit to follow that conversation. If that is how much goes into adding a series I am not surprised it took that long to add Doki. I am impressed but more in a "dude builds a 1:1 copy of the eifel tower out of toothpicks" way. Impressive as fuck but also how is that something a human does.

Precure is a show to sell the merchandise used for finisher attacks and transformations and so forth, right?
Like this, they can just use a lot more finisher attacks, like having a new one every 6 or 7 episodes, and sell new merch because of that. The combat doesn't contribute to sales and might offend some parents so they cut it out entirely.

Gotta love this weird but cute Toei match ups.

In a scale of 0 to Doki how gay was Maho?

>>2245600
Pretty gay, though more in a "two moms raising a kid" kinda way.

>>2245600
It had a promising start but kinda fizzle out with every episode. I would go as far as saying Maho is the most platonic among the duo-Cure in the franchise. The "yuri" only comes from the situation they're in (living in a same house raising a daughter) rather than emotional interactions.

However, it has absolutely no het whatsover.

>>2246332
I disagree. It was pretty gay, maybe most of all series, and without a doubt most gay than any duo-cure, mostly because girls having crush on guys is not gay at all. The episode that they have to say goodbye in particular is pretty emotional. Sure, they slow down when Haa-chan grows up, but married life is always like that.

>>2245600
I would argue its gayer moment is gayer than Doki.

Its problem is when Haa-chan grows big enough, Mirai and Rikko's attention is divided between themselves and Haa-chan, making them have less intimate moment than the early episodes.

But everytime they have time for just the two of them (like in Halloween episode) their interaction turn romantic again.

>>2246395
The absence of het is not an increase of yuri. Black/White, Bloom/Egret, Melody/Rhythm have emotional moments that are more plausibly romantic than platonic. So strong that it's possible to interpret the het crushes as youthful confusion while they're oblivious to their true crush. The "girl going gaga for the hottest guy in school, but eventually fall for the best friend guy" is one of the most common trope in shoujo manga.

Compare that to Maho, where the girls act more like close friends instead of crushes. It's because of the lack of defining moments "you're my world," "you're special to me, I would give my life for you," "I'm jealous that you get close to other people," like the other Cure duos, all of which are traditionally romantic interactions.

Think of Hibikek. Despite Reina clearly has a crush on a guy, there's no one in their right mind would argue that the interactions between Himiko/Reina aren't romantic. Compare that to any pairing in, say, Gochiusa. Now you understand how Hibikek is gayer than Gochiusa, despite the former has het and the latter no het whatsover. That's the same situation we have with Maho.

>>2246943
That logic must be superb, because I cannot follow it. I agree with your conclusion but I have no fucking idea how you got there... FML

>>2246944
Basically just because two girls are together doesn't mean there's actual love involved unless their relationship includes romantic interactions, and that the aforementioned holds true even if there's no het whatsoever.

>>2246944
Het =/= no yuri.

No het =/= yuri..

>>2246956
>>2246958
Yeah, that was the conclusion I agreed with. I just was amazed by the logic that Onee-sama used to get to that conclusion.

>>2246943
>Now you understand how Hibikek is gayer than Gochiusa

Yeah, no, you're just wrong.

Also, MahoGirls just feel like every other Precure series in that regard. They all had some episodes that felt really gay, but most looked platonic. MahoGirls has all of that except for a jealous episode, since they have no reason for that.

>>2246978
Which part of it do you find hard to follow? Anon seems to assume that Nagisa and the other Cures who have both a crush on a guy and a very close relationship with another Cure are bisexual, though not yet aware of the fact. If you assume that, their having crushes on boys doesn't reduce the romance of their Cure relationship any more than there being an episode about Honoka's dog going on an adventure.

I think Hibikek is a little different because those girls should be able to realize they're attracted to each other and be jealous of the other.

>>2247005
I don't think you've watched Futari wa, Spash Star, nor the first half of Suite. How anyone can say Maho has many gay moments as those is beyond me. And outside of duo-Cure series, it can't even compare to Doki, Fresh, Heartcatch.

Maho is about as platonic as Smile. Laughing and spending time together don't make it feel gay like staring into each other's eyes and blushing, you know?

>>2247025
>I don't think you've watched Futari wa, Spash Star

Watched both. In fact, I finished Splash Star last year. Still think the same. In fact, I believe that if any staff makes intentional yuri tease in the series, that's something they do now, but on the classics the objective was to be a platonic relationship only.

>Laughing and spending time together don't make it feel gay like staring into each other's eyes and blushing, you know?

They have a lot of "you're the most special person to me" moments. Not everyone needs to act the same way, anyway. Also, whatever that some times Nagisa would blush to Honoka (and it was a rare event), she would blush stronger and everytime to the boy, anyway.

>>2247417
Whatever helps you sleep at night.

This doujin explains the relationship in maho

https://exhentai.org/g/1011260/fa54b5a439/

Merei and Riko have quite a bit of yuri in the beginning episodes. When their daughter came of age they quieted down the public displays of affection to not make her feel excluded (they probably still continue it when they are in private together).

>>2248884
This is the most amazing doujin I've read in a long time. This needs to be translated by somebody much better than me. Someone who could do it justice.

>>2249893
I agree.

Episode 49 was very yuri, but you can't call that an ending because there is still one more episode left.

>>2249978
Well it was sort of an ending. They seem to be taking the Kamen Rider route where the penultimate is pretty much the finale and the actual final episode is more of a goofy epilogue.
But hey, for a franchise that's only briefly touched upon time skips twice (Heartcatch and Princess), it's pretty ballsy to dedicate one and a half episodes to one.

>>2249994
>only briefly touched upon time skips twice (Heartcatch and Princess), it's pretty ballsy to dedicate one and a half episodes to one.

Speaking of, they clearly aged them for the end of the episode, but it almost looks like they are back to their younger versions for the epilogue (at least what I could tell from the hair and faces). Maybe it was just the angles and quick cuts that made it look that way...

I think more shows could use the episode epilogues to wrap things up. Too many (manga and anime) end leaving things unexplained, or what happened to characters up in the air. (In my mind - non-u-realated - the Bleach manga was wrapped up VERY awful when it came to what happened to characters. Glad we should get a good wrap up with Maho Precure).

>>2249508
You know, this might be the best episode in the entire series.
It was really well made, really emotional and really gay. Hell, I can't even find words to describe it.

>>2250017
And by entire series, I mean, all the Precure series.

>>2250018
I don't think anything will ever top the one where the bad guys trap Honoka in a shadow realm that is slowly consuming her and Nagisa has to save her with the power of love.

>>2250046
>Next(last) episode is about Ha-chan using a spell to turn Riko and Mirai in their 13 years old self.
Ah, then I wasn't going crazy when I thought they were younger again, and I'd like to say it wasn't lazy animation (but I'll save that judgement until I've seen how good/bad this story of magically turned into 13 year old girls plays out. Theoretically while they were apart they both could have learned about lesbian sex, and planned to do it with each other when they met again and now they could do it in their 13 year old bodies. There is a story the fanfic people could play out. Perhaps having them regain their end story age and break the spell when they both cause each other to orgasm. Obviously the canon story-line would have the spell end a different way - if it is in fact dispelled by the end of the last episode).

>>2250054
I wonder...it looks pretty much like a filler episode.
Maybe they didn't realize they need to do one more episode before planning the series?

>>2250054
>>2250058
>そしてフシギな女の子との出会いも…!
Yup. Definitely going for the Kamen Rider approach for this one.

Can't tell if she's glad Mirai caught that girl or if the broom can do, and is doing, other things other than fly.

That is not just any girl. That is the new a future Precure lead.

>>2250082

>>2250067
From bits and pieces I saw her talk about, Mahou in Dissonance will be the oldest team yet. I am super worried about the way their powers will go dude. I have seen her talk about a dragon slave thing a lot. I had to look it up and apparently it's from some super old show about fighting demons or something? And I can totally see her cutting Ha-chan if she doesn't nerf herself somehow ;_;

>>2250303
>Mahou in Dissonance will be the oldest team yet
>using the DokiDoki plot again
Just because Toei did it doesn't mean you have to Kuugen!

>I have seen her talk about a dragon slave thing a lot. I had to look it up and apparently it's from some super old show about fighting demons or something?
You haven't watched Slayers? Either way, "dragon slave" is a spell the main character, Lina Inverse, uses as a finisher. It's a giant lazor that will nuke the target and do quite a bit of collateral damage to its surroundings.

It's odd seeing Slayers being referred to as a "super old show". I watched it when I was a wee lass myself.

>nerfing Ha-chan
Maybe since she's a magical being she needs connection to the magical place to work at full power? Which again is the DokiDoki plot.

Any word on HaCha and GoPri?

>>2250314
I pm'd her on twitter and asked nicely. She linked me a pastebin that was gone when I checked earlier so I pulled it from my cache. it's a bit much to paste into the thread though. What should I do? screencap it?

>>2250527

Agegap /ll/, that is, agegap involving an older woman and a loli.

>>2250759
I don't see where the loli part comes in when both Mirai and Liko are the same age
Kotoha is definitely gonna be aged up too
We already have Oneeloli in a way with Urara and Ako though.

>>2250814
>Urara and Ako
Adult form and Ako being so mature makes it hard to remember.

Also I wish Kuugen stopped doing those aging ups. We'll end up with grannies.

>>2250822
GoPri sounds like typical 18-20 range, like most
HaCha is a bit higher maybe because she plans to do something with their civilian forms it sounds like?
And 30 is not grannies man. Remember they are asians. They will look 25 when they are 50.

>>2250838
I just want some original age Precures being preyed by, or preying upon, their older comrades. Like, the event plucks them a few weeks or at most months after their series ends, not years later.

I'm kinda biased towards my fetish for oneeloli

>>2250842
They would just get destroyed non-stop in battles. Kuugen cares about the battles. And she cares about boob size a lot. Combine that and there is basically no way. Why do you think Ako wasn't just cosplaying but age shifting or whatever?

Nah, I'd say Honoka/Nagisa was even more yuri but if you exclude the original pair then Mahotsukai Precure is indeed easily the most obvious yuri combo

>Honoka/Nagisa was even more yuri but if you exclude the original pair then Mahotsukai Precure is indeed easily the most obvious yuri combo
It makes me sad how people either passed on, ignored, or forget Doki Doki Precure. To me that was clearly the most yuri of any of the precure series. Maho, Fresh, Suite, and Heartcatch all had decent levels. The others all had too much het for my taste, but that's not to say the stories (excluding the het elements present) were bad in any way.

>>2251907
I think it's because people use yuri to refer to different things. Doki Doki is easily the most obviously gay of the shows, but as a harem story, many think it isn't as romantic as the extremely close relationships formed by some of the other Cures.

>>2251879
I think you have bias because it was your first series, but okay.

>>2251907
I agree that Doki Doki is pretty gay, but it's also kinda boring to me. I like when a series makes every character relevant, and Mana was too much of a Mary Sue.

>>2251935
Mana and Rikka were extremely close. They acted like they were already married.

>>2252083
Well, I wouldn't go as far as Mary Sue per se (heck, as far as their typical roles go, pretty much every Pink cure qualifies for that), but one could argue that she's maybe a little too perfect, lacking many flaws compared to other characters.

>>2252083
That might be another knock against it, actually. The other "romances" are about girls going from strangers to soul mates (aside from Hibiki and Kanade, who still need to repair their relationship first). Doki Doki is about a married woman getting five mistresses. Plus, their levels of affection are unequal: Rikka cares the most about Mana, while Mana cares the most about helping everyone.

None of this is really a criticism. Doki Doki did something new and interesting with its character dynamics and ended up being much more memorable than most recent Cure series. It just doesn't really fit the mold /u/ loves so much.

>>2252105
Mana isn't any less flawed than her teammates.
I think the problem you have is how much of the show is a cult of personality surrounding Mana. The other girls spend quite a bit of time singing their adoration for her.

>>2252119
Fair enough. I liked it quite a lot, but I know it's not everyone's cup of tea.

>>2252150
Also, the writing kept rewarding Mana for doing nothing instead of exploiting her weakness and giving her challenges to make her grow as a character.

>>2252270
That too. It was especially bad in the school festival episode.
A thoroughly wasted opportunity for character development.

>>2252105

Does anyone else find it disturbing she's referencing a story where the Swallow worked itself to death and the Prince died of a broken heart afterward? If they actually took that allusion seriously it could be kind of a neat plot...

Yet, Honoka/Nagisa are still the only ones which such a bed scene in which not only a single sentence but nearly the whole conversation was very yuri-esque

>>2252307
They actually did have an episode where Agari read the actual book and became fearful for Mana's life.

>>2252307
Eh, do you find it disturbing when people refering to each other or two people in love as Romeo and Juliet?

That's the thing. Tragic ending is irrelevant when the symbolism behind the characters is something else.

>>2252422
Even the non-yuri part of the conversation, where Nagisa asks Honoka about Kiriya(?) and getting a rather noncommitted answer feels like her crossing off 'talk about boys' on her list of things to do at a sleep over before getting down to the business of swearing to forever stay by her side.

>>2252458
I silently judge them for not knowing their classics, though I also think that those who try to be clever by claiming the play is a satire about horny teenagers are shallow readers.

>>2252486
>I silently judge them for not knowing their classics
On the contrary, you're the one who get laughed at for being obtuse. You're fixated on the wrong side of things and missing the point. It's like insisting people are wrong for using "awful" to mean "bad, nasty" when it should be (and used to be) "worthy of awe."

>>2252493
All living languages change, but Romeo and Juliet is still a play about teenagers who kill themselves. There are more appropriate fictional couples to evoke.

>>2252509
>There are more appropriate fictional couples to evoke.
Beren and Luthien?

>>2252458

A little. Happy Prince is a tad more obscure, I'm more concerned if Rikka actually understands the story she is referring to. I mean, does she legitimately want to die for Mana? Does she see Mana's selflessness as self destructive on some level? Or is she just using it on the most shallow level?

Just seems like something that could be halfway interesting to explore. I mean, if you want to challenge Mana having Rikka legitimately die of cause herself harm trying to help Mana seems like a good avenue.

>>2252509

Romeo and Juliet is one of those things that's mutated in the common consciousness. Even so, a lot of works that reference it do bring up the whole dead thing, and that it probably isn't a good model for a healthy relationship.

I mean, if someone compared their lover to, like, Heathcliff from wuthering heights, I be somewhat worried if they were crying for help. It's not something you'd reference without having actually read the book.

>>2252519
It's been a while, but didn't Rikka use it in a somewhat disapproving way, implying Mana was too unselfish? That would suggest she does understand the story.

I also like to think she's read about Oscar Wilde and recognizes the gay subtext, so implicitly casting herself as the sparrow is her way of expressing her feelings for Mana in a way she won't get.

>>2252526

Yeah that's what I was thinking too, though that makes it super super depressing. Poor Rikka.

>>2252526
>didn't Rikka use it in a somewhat disapproving way, implying Mana was too unselfish?
Yes. Even in the first episode she kept telling Mana that she shouldn't be trying to solve everyone's problems.
When she said "let me be your sparrow" she basically meant that if Mana was going to burn herself out helping others, then she would be right there with her.

Final episode of Maho is subbed and out:

>>2255015
>Final episode of Maho is subbed and out
As far as final episode wrap-ups go that was pretty good. I think it would be a good thing if future wrap-up episodes of Precure continued what this one did by introducing and cross-over the older and newest Precure. I'll miss the current girls, but I'm looking forward to seeing the new girl "whip it good"

Yeah, Mana's complete selflessness and penchant for always trying to brighten up the lives of everyone around her is definitely supposed to be both her admirable character trait, but also her greatest flaw.

Pretty much everyone she interacts with comes to love her, but being with Mana is very stressful for those that love her because she's always doing things to the detriment of her own health, and I think that the show invoking Oscar Wilde's Happy Prince is a pretty clever way of expressing that.

Rikka insists on being in the student council and a Cure because she knows that Mana would keep on in her ways until her body fell apart if she weren't there to support her.

I think that some fans are too quick to dismiss Mana as perfectly boring character that can do no wrong, though the show does certainly make it into a positive more often than a negative it's still interesting for a kid's show.

>>2255627
I really like the Doki movie because it really shows how Mana reacts when she feels that she had failed. I kinda wished that it explored that aspect of her more during the show.

Nagisa with her whole being a romantic sucker and Itsuki with her love of cute things.

I'll give you Akane, but better examples then Nagisa and Itsuki, would be Hibiki and Saki, since they don't really have many obvious feminine qualities that are obvious.

Undropped (although I honestly did plan on picking it back up...) the show because of this, and was definitely not disappointed. Allow me to say that I think I agree with this, if not at least it being one of the greatest eps since episode 8 of the original season. Although admittedly don't think I've revisited most Pretty Cures since they were airing...

But either way, my point is I wanted to say thanks to the Anon who posted this, if you're still here, for speeding up my return to this show.

Many people probably haven't. On that note we could probably use a list of the most yuri episodes in all the Precure series

>>2258244
Nope sorry, not true ending.

True ending is when Kirira and Towa can be together as well.

>>2258519
You're welcome.
That scene was really well built and even made it seem like the entire season was made for that. I like Precure a lot, but usually I don't expect something like that, so it was a good surprise.

>>2258748
At least it is for the main couple...
I only remember two other true endings (Suit & Fresh) Are there any more that I'm missing?

Imouto route for Chocolat?

>>2259052
She comes as a pair with Yukari when they fight plus she has fangirls. She is still the rip off Haruka. Yukari even has Michiru's rich girl look.

Well, first episode certainly cemented this as a "yup, this sure is a cartoon for little Japanese girls" series. There's even a cooking montage song and an end-of-episode how-to-cook section ffs.
Still, some pretty neat fight animation and nice dramatic moments.

RAW of episode 1 of A La Mode is out, so hopefully we'll have a sub before too long.

That may have been the weirdest first episode of a Precure series I can recall.
I hope they stop doing the live action garbage mixed in with the animation in the middle of episodes, but I doubt they will. (I still don't like live action at the end of the episodes, but its better than mixed in).

This was romantic as hell. Like, whoa. I wasn't expecting such sweet and emotional ending. Thank you Toei for Mirai and Riko, they were beautiful.

Well, two eps in and we've already got a princess carry and high speed forehead touching.
The animation was pretty damn impressive (as expected, yellow gets a decent henshin budget), and it also seem to be hitting the drama notes nicely.

And by second episode fights got a bit more physical than I feared.
Though series conflict seems rather mundane so far. Maybe when masked guy reveals himself it'll become more global.

>>2264790
>more physical than I feared

U WOT NEE-SAN

>>2264922
I'm guessing anon was worried that this series was gonna be lacking in the martial arts-esque combat the franchise is known for (ie. punching and kicking instead of just magic beams all the time).

>>2264939
But it seems like she was saying that it got more physical than she was fearing it would be. That sounds like she didn't want it. Precure's been about fistfights and DADADADADADADADADADADADADADADADADADADADA since Futari wa. I know they said they were gonna try to not do that, but IDEK

I doubt it's ever gonna be this hardcore again.

>>2264939
Exactly what I meant. I feared it would have 0 physical fighting, and it had more than that. So it had more than I feared it would have.
Still, it's fighting style looks closer to Sailor Moon than to Futari Wa. Or if you want a recent example, GoPri.

>>2265112
Man, that looks so fucking cool. I'd watch more Precure if the fights were more like that, back in the days of Futari wa. I remember also that fight between Nagisa and Honoka in this movie with a lot of ice that was awesome too.

>>2265181
A lot of the sakuga fights in Go Princess are pretty damn good, and I still find myself rewatching the penultimate battle from Heartcatch from time to time.

The franchise in general has pretty good fights, for example mid-season Smile or the final individual fights (those where almost the Nao brothers die)

That's probably the weakest part of MahoPre.
At least the endgame gave us some good (but short) sakuga.

Okay, I'm scared and I'm depressed...
Who is subtitling this season?

>>2265254
I don't feel that Mahou lived up to it's full potential that it started with, but that finale with time skip Cures had to be one of the greatest things in the entire franchise.

>>2266284
Some dude.

>>2265357
Is it true that this season Precue has zero fights and they beat the bad guys by feeding them pastries or something?

I just do not want it to repeat what happened in Maho in terms of subtitle

>>2267324
Exactly what season?

>>2267324
They don't feed the monsters, so far they just kinda drown them in frosting or whatever. Which is really underwhelming and doesn't even have a name or anything, so I'm expecting they'll get something more proper finisher-like later.
The Cures do have unique abilities based on their spirit animals, which I like.

>>2267649
>I just do not want it to repeat what happened in Maho in terms of subtitle

What happened? I thought Imag. Station did a decent job apart from a few melon snafus

>>2268097
I suspect it's about subs being delayed in the middle of the season.

Watched Doki movie, was disappointed. Storyline about forgotten things and moving to the future was OK, but all the wedding related things felt like they were out of character for the series. Scene in the beginning when girls debate which of them is going to get married first was unbelievable. And that "going to the future" part with Mana's actual wedding to some faceless dude (who is 100% not Regina). Just ugh.

>>2268503
There were some episodes where everyone was similarly out of character. It might be the same writer responsible for that.

>>2268503
It's especially grating considering the staff went out of their way to avoid stuff like that in the series because they didn't think that it suited the themes or characters of Doki Doki.

The characters never act like this during any other point of the series, and it totally goes against what was already established for them.
I mean, Mana's dream is to become Prime Minister. That's a bit more amazing than getting married to some generic salaryman, so why even care?

I understand that Precure is not really a /u/ show, and sometimes they're going to do things that we don't approve of, but this genuinely feels like it was written by someone who either didn't understand or care about the core themes of Doki Doki.

Maybe someone with power really felt the need to say "No homo."

So guys, how exactly do you think Mirai and Riko would react if Haa-chan asked them for a little sister?

>>2270583
Haa will make it by herself, duh!

Okay, forget what I said earlier. All the animation has most definitely gone to Aoi's henshin, which looks absolutely amazing (maybe that's why they made blue the no.3 Cure this time around).
And this ep pretty much reminds us why gay blue girls who make best friends with strawberries are so great.

So judging by the OP and promo materials this season is taking the novel approach of Red x Purple, and ep 2 seems to have thrown in its lot with Pink x Orange
Which leaves Blue either all alone or part of OT3 Blue x Pink x Orange

Even though I want the show to hurry and get to Yukari & Akira already, I'm glad they're taking the next episode to flesh out the younger trio dynamic.

The movie is incredibly stupid
Feels Like A Bad Fanfic... an average Precure fanfic

>>2269295
I really want to think that this movie is the real culprit of the bad things in Hetcharge...
Movie Doki & Hetcharge feel like an unprovoked disaster trying more than they can actually do...
I think that's why Go Princess and Maho take different routes and the Het is not touched (unless you're an idiot)...

Although I'm just digging and I laugh in the face of a certain person who grinds Hetcharge (during the transmission) and complained about etupid things about Suit, complain about the series, but his movie is great

I'd put the Doki-Doki movie about a notch above Splash-Stars'.

Doki-Doki's movie has two really solid moments that rescue it from being purely wasted time.
The first is Cure Ace using the Miracle Lights to break the 4th wall like a fairy and then go on to violate the laws of thermodynamics and space-time, just to prove she's the OPest cure in the franchise.

The other is that fantastic moment towards the beginning where Mana hard-checks her grandmother's wedding dress, and actually manages to stop it from running away.
Compare this to Love and her stuffed bunny in the Fresh Movie.
It's such a fantastic Mana moment, representing the kind of bravery and can-do that makes her stand out so much in the series.

...But yeah, the rest is garbage.
Also, I'm pretty sure the white hair hanging off the groom is there to imply that she marries her dog. So fucked up.

The "wedding" is more bearable when you consider it one of her possible futures. Not the definite one.

Mana is definitely pansexual guys. I mean, honestly, do you think her love wouldn't be for all living things? Most of her relationships are with women, after all, so you don't have anything to worry about anyway.

Besides, the movie also has Rikka and Alice swearing that they refuse to live in a world without Mana, so there's something for everyone there.

>>2272060
I like to think of the faceless groom in the wedding as Alice in a tuxedo.

>>2272086

we saw alice in the gathering so

>>2272087
She has enough money to be in two places at once.
It's not a very strong point, but it doesn't make less sense than an evil clarinet.

>>2272060
No. Just no.
