Smile Precure Discussion Thread

Episode 11:

- Mini-precure! Another "witch's magic item drops to earth" ep.
- Poor Nao. Enormous bugs everywhere. And seeing them in a leaf boat makes me wonder when Mini-Ika is gonna show up.
- Wait, how strong is Yayoi that she can move an enormous ruler? Is she Mugi-strong?
- Add acrophobia to Nao's list of fears. Akane too. Amusingly, Yayo fears none of this.
- Nao hanging onto Akane <3 <3
- Oh god, Nao's absolute terror is too fun.
- Now she's hanging on to Reika! RGB! RGB! RGB!
- Their sizes in this episode are inconsistent as hell. Sometimes they're barely a millimeter, sometimes it's at least a centimeter or two.

- Mini-henshin! Jan-ken... I lose! I went scissors, she went rock. You take this round, Cure Peace!
- Hah I like the idea of Majorina just being stupid and not thinking to make a large Akanbee.
- Suddenly Akanbee jumps in side about 2000%. MOST INCONSISTENT ANIMATION EVER.
- Majorina is dumb. =D

That was so much fun, but I have to laugh at the "bugs are cute and just like us" message.

episode 12 was great the new group attack rainbow healing was very good and finally they combine their powers in this episode before the new power

[Suwako Moriya]

Well, now that they know how the blue noses work, will they remember it and not waste future attacks?

Err Candy going with them should be a given regardless. Unless Precure really thought that just because they'd be on a trip they wouldn't be harrassed.

*Looks at power up and watches opening* Oh, that's an interesting way to handle it.

Reika might be the intelligent one... Understatement?

i wonder what is this miracle jewel joker was talking about in the episode

[Fencedude]

Well, that sure was a new attack.

Also, Reika's pretty badass.

[HitokiriShadow]

Reika finally gets an episode focused on her (other than her intro episode) though it ends up being half her and half Candy. Candy yelling at the class for her and Reika covering it up was amusing.

So they'll be dealing with the special blue-nosed Akanbe for at least four more episodes. And they don't get Cure Decors for beating them. There was a notable discrepancy between how many Cure Decor their case could hold (20) and the number to fill the Bad Energy Clock, and this brings them more in line.

And we start getting hints of some larger plot beyond just reviving Pierre. Something about a Miracle Jewel.

[Suwako Moriya]

Figures, Miyuki would choose a fairy tale character for someone to like. Even so, Peter Pan? Do we focus more on the fact he's an eternally young boy or how he is often played by a woman? From what I heard anyway....

The universe apparently hated Miyuki during this episode.

Hair down mode for Miyuki and Nao was nice to have.

Osaka next time and we get butterfly wings for March, Sunny, and Beauty? Clearly those three have been watching a certain other Cure series. They want to be just like them.

[RZetlin]

The whole class is going on a field trip to Kyoto and Osaka.

Candy is not happy that she is not tagging along on the trip.

Candy tries to help out the Precures plan their trip, but makes a mess of things.

Meanwhile the Joker gives out Blue Akanbes to the Villains.

The Blue Akanbes are immune to the Precure attacks but are weaker.

Wolfurun attacks with his new Blue Akanbe.

The Precure are getting beaten but they learn a new group attack to defeat the Akabe.

--------------------------------------------

Unlike the other Precure series, the Smile Precure team developed a group attack early in the series.

The Blue Akanbe are stated to be weaker than the Red Akanbe but there is no difference why it is weaker.

[RZetlin]

The girls arrive in Kyoto with Candy stowed on board.

Reika turns out be an amateur tourist guide provide bits of information on the sites the girls have visited.

Miyuki pulls a bad luck fortune which leads to terrible luck on her field trip. (E.g. Landing in the pond, bird popping on her head and a broken gift.)

Miyuki reveals she has a crush on Peter Pan which doesn't impress the other girls.

Akaoni attacks but Miyuki's bad luck trips up the team. The Precures still manage to win the battle.

-----------------
Next episode March, Sunny and Beauty gets new powers, but no new powers for Happy and Sunny?
