The tour of everyone's base ideas was cute. Reika was particularly amusing this episode. Yayoi was adorably awesome as usual.

Episode 4:

- That's a scary lunch, Yayoi.
- Nao-chaaaaaan! All the girls love her.
- Haha god Miyuki is ULTRA-gay for Nao.
- Nao's imouto Hina is cute. But not nearly as cute as THE BEST HINA.
- "There's something I want you to do with me." I'm sure there is, Miyuki. Many things.
- Ahahahaha, just as I was thinking "I should play janken with Yayoi each ep", Yayoi defeats the Oni with it.
- ...And god her hair is so silly. I swear it's a hairdo Satou gave Popura once in Working.

- Cure March time! You're so cool, Inoue Marina <3 Love march already.
- Heeeeeey Akane, don't make fun of Yayoi's janken, it's adorable.
- ...Haha and Yayoi uses the same defense. Oh god Kanemoto Hisako who are you so fucking adorable?
- Ahaha someone needs to give Nao some brakes.

Yayoi is still the best, but Nao is soooooo likable. She's great.

Agreed, the whole time I was watching I found it so weird that we had two earnest sporty types. But they're both awesome so it's okay.

Episode 5:

- Miyuki borrowed a bishoujo radar from Minorin, and makes good use of it. I like how it's not the flowers whose beauty she compliments, but Reika's. =D
- ...Do Precure usually recruit outside of emergencies?
- "We're superheroes" Hah.
- Reika is reallllllllly pretty. The character art in general is fantastic in this show, at least for the main five.
- "So Precure weren't a dream!" Uhhh... you didn't realize?
- Ahahaha, belated janken from Yayoi. That joke (and Candy's lack of suitable anatomy to play along) is never going to get old.
- AHHAAH, everyone starts doing their constipation dances and the witch is just like "WTF is this!?"
- Girls, you're gonna need a lot more than 5 Precure if you've all got just one shot.
- "Toorisugari no superhero" Seriously, Yayoi, I absolutely love you.

Cure Beauty is awesome~ She catches on quick, which is nice. She's a welcome addition to the team. So far, I really love all five of them.

From what I can figure out, the distinction is that Akane is a tomboy, while Nao is an "Onna-bancho"

Episode 6:

- Candy's explanation abilities leave much to be desired.
- That's Candy's brother? o_O

- ...Huh. I did not peg Yayoi to be the only one to make a graceful landing.
- "Royal Queen-sama" hahaha wtf
- Oooookay, Joker just got seriously creepy.
- Yes, Yayoi. You're superheroes. Just give in, Akane.
- Haha, Miyuki can rely on Yayoi for support in this.
- Bwhaha Miyuki you fuckup. Enjoy Antarctica.

- Quintuple transofrmation time. Pika pika pikarin! Janken... ::throws scissors:: pon! Okay, we tied this time. 0-0-1!
- HAHAHAHAH, this show definitely has the best sense of humor of the three Precures I've tried. Miyuki is just orgasmically happy over pulling off the catchphrase, and then they all just get blown up.

Yeah I was thinking while watching 5-6 that they still manage to have very different personalities. Akane is more into "nekketsu power!" and being a bit impulsive. While Nao is more like a noble samurai, who also spares no effort to crush her opponents, but is more mature and serious.

I took her final pose as throwing scissors. They just didn't make any jokes out of it.

Episode 7:

- Girls, maybe you shouldn't initiate trans-dimensional contact on school grounds.
- Oh my god Reika is adorable. Nishimura Chinami's voice is great - serious, but also very very cute. And Reika herself is a bit, uh, austere, isn't she?
- Hahaha, oh Yayoi. I thought they were going to say she'd teleported them to NORAD or something.
- Wow they're all really bad at this secret base thing. Go take a hint from Menma and friends.
- Hmm, maybe Yayoi is just going to default to scissors from now on. I thought she'd keep on choosing different ones. I can't play along if it's always scissors. ;_;
- Another easy Akanbee fight.
- Of course they end up making the library their place.

The akanbee monsters need to level up into tehepero monsters.

Next episode looks terrifying.

Character art is one thing that really attracted me to trying this series out. Found out that the character designer is Kawamura Toshie, who worked on adapting the character designs for KamiNomi and Mashiroiro Symphony. That why they felt so familiar to me in their adorability.
