Smile Precure Discussion Thread

[something]

TV ratings

Ep# - Smile - Suite
1) 5.4% vs 6.0%
2) 5.6% vs 5.7%
3) 5.9% vs 5.1%
4) 6.1% vs 4.9%

I remember when ep 1 aired there were stories about how 5.4% was low for a PreCure opener, but it looks like it's just increased ep-on-ep since then while Suite fell quite a bit. Looks like Japan approves of Smile so far.

Now we get Precure number 4, Cure March. Nao's pretty fun, I liked how her hair kind of explodes during her transformation, her running to the wall was amusing and her finishing move is pretty impressive, even though it bears more than little resemblance to Sunny's attack two episodes ago.

But Yayoi's still the best. I loved the Jan-Ken-Pon gag and commentary. Yes, your Jan-Ken-Pon is very cute Yayoi, don't let anyone convince you otherwise!

cure beauty sure earned her name she have great transformation and nice attack also majorina the third villian is sneaky and creepy then the outher 2 villians

The girls are going to need some serious training to help with their stamina and such. Otherwise, they might be screwed in the future.

Wow, Beauty not only has beauty, but she has brains too. Take that shows that like to bash characters for being attractive!

Hesitant to call Beauty the favorite, but she fills me with thoughts. And I'll leave it at that.

Oh, and she's "Ice/Snow" technically. So she's like the cold beauty!

You know what? This show needs an episode where the girls are each dressed up as a different Fairy Tale Princesses. To pass it up given the premise of the show would just be wrong.

Ok, maybe they don't have to be exactly Princesses. I'd accept a Red Riding Hood as much as I'd accept Snow White. Assuming they couldn't find a fitting Princess for everyone.

The Smile team needs some stamina training.

Yay for getting the team together, interesting to see where it goes now.

Like Cure Beauty quite a bit.

Cure Beauty has arrive!

Stamina training is a must for the team if they hope to do more than 1 magic attack per turn.

Now to address the issue back in episode one for the next few episodes, hopefully they can travel to that special dimension in the library.

Reika/Cure Beauty joins the party, completing the team.

I'm partial to blue/water powers, but Yayoi/Cure Peace is still the best. Pika-pika-pikarin! Jan-ken-pon! I hope the jan-ken-pon gag after the transformation never stops. And her surprise when the lightning struck her hand to use her attack amused me.

I also like how all of them are clearly starting at level 1 and lack the MP reserves to use their special attacks more than once.

here is the next episode titles looks like it will be intresting and funny episodes:
episode 7: Where is It? Our Secret Base
episode 8: Miyuki and Candy Switch Places?

[Suwako Moriya]

"They're the legendary warriors", Candy's answer to many questions. Well, this might explain why they were giving no explanation.

Miyuki feels the team needs a catchphrase. Nao and Akane aren't very supportive. However both Yayoi and Reika are. Although in Reika's case, her reasons are more based on err logical benefit than fun.

I really hope that book moving only works for select people, otherwise there is going to be a lot of accidental travels.

It's important to stay focused when traveling to the... PENGUIN!

So the Witch actually wanted the transformation prevented and even had them attacked after their speech.

Heh, Pop can transform into a creature and fight himself. I get the feeling he only has so many scrolls to work with.

You know what's sad? Every time the enemy makes a monster, they bring the Smile Cures one step closer to getting the decors they need. have they considered just not sending a monster in the first place?

Joker appears and there's NO WAY HE COULD POSSIBLY BE THE TRUE MAIN VILLAIN!

Well, even if he's not the main villain, I could easily see him trying for power himself.

[Nork22]

Candy has a brother, Pop, who speaks like a samurai.

So with any bookshelf, you can go to this new world, and it will warp you to the nearest bookshelf that you want to go to. Handy... except that you have to concentrate where you want to go to otherwise you'll end up in the South Pole.

LOL at the end of the group catchphrase, they get hit with a can missle. That's just mean.

Also Joker gotta be the mid-boss of sorts.
