Watch KiraKira, I'm enjoying it so far.

I should probably do that. It looks really cute.

Apparently you haven't been around.

I think Hikaru and Lala have a more cute and sexual relationship with each other. Madoka and Lala have nothing there.

So Mana really is a guy and would understand me if I talked about faping to her? Wonder if she fap with me as well.

Don't talk to her about fapping to her. That'd be awkward.

Mana was sexy without fanart

I'm rewatching Doremi because I recommended it to a friend, so now we're watching it synchronized with a program.
I already recommended a lot of Precure seasons to her before (which she watched alone), she really enjoyed almost all of them.

I saw Mirai kissing Liko and then they started holding hands.

>I saw Mirai kissing Liko

Friends do that sometimes

I want to suck on Mana's thick cock and choke to death on her smooth juicy cum.

I saw Mirai eating our Riko's pussy,

Such good friends.

Mirai ate Riko's cat, but why!?

it's what good friends do, imouto

>our Riko
But I don't have a Riko! I have a Liko though.

I'm glad I have no friends then, I love my cats too much to let them get eaten like that.

I was indifferent with Spring Carnival, but pretty bummed the first half was just a dance-sequence-recap thing. Super Stars, on the other hand, had no BGM for 1/3 of the movie, its writing was the complete opposite of smooth, and the non-Pinks had no chance to shine. The only saving grace was the cool fight scene at the end.

Has any over precure gotten as big a harem as Mana in the franchise's history?

I was pretty impressed how the series seemed to be against its own gimmick in a lot of instances, one would think that a kid's show would hype up its main attraction without brakes.

If you were a poorfag conjuring food with magic would be awesome!

Started to watch Star Twinkle Precure for the first time and was wondering how serious is the franchise. Like I know is a show for kids but is it like Pokemon where it gets hype every now and then but there are no real consequences? or like Yu-Gi-Oh! where the plot gets a little more serious later and characters start dying.

YuGiOh is not really a children only series, it's a shounen anime aimed at teenagers and young adults.

So I suppose this would be closer to Pokemon, the difference is that Precure can get pretty serious sometimes, usually towards the last episodes.

Each season has their own overarching plot and the stakes get serious over time. If you watch a finished season or two you'll get the gist of it.

Sometimes people die, but never the Cures themselves. Maybe a fairy, a villain, or a supporting character. It gets usually relatively (given the target audience) high-stakes around the midseason climax and the finale, in most seasons.

You can use the happy doremi butt one if you want. I always fall asleep before Buki anymore so shes never there.

It's as serious as a little girls show user, literally. If it's your first look into the franchise I'd say you should watch the others seasons too, but you can watch any season (aside from Max Heart and GoGo), they're their own thing. Usually a season have around 49~50 episodes and depending of the season it's
>1~18 SoL MOTW shennanigans
>19~22/23 mid serious arc, shit usually hits the fan but it's resolved, insert mid-season Cure here
>23~42 more SoL with hints of the greater big bad and the stakes, villains get's killed/reddemed
>43~47 big bad reveal, Cures start losing left and right, Overpowered, despair.
>48~50 final battle/resolution, everything ends in a happy note (usually) move to the next season
It's up to you if you want to keep watching it, but if you want "le grimdark mahou shoujo" Prwcure isn't just for you.

I always feel so bad for the girls with a crush in episodes like this

Move GoPri to mid tier. Towa getting kidnapped and Haruka losing the will to precure were pretty heavy

God she's delicious

Move fucking Splash star to at least low-tier, that mini-arc about the "death" of the sisters was heavy, and if you don't think the "we couldn't save them" scene on the classroom wasn't heavy then fuck you. Plus FW biggest drama is about as heavy as the softball loss. And MAYBE move suite down, Noise stuff was at the same level as any other endboss.

What does CL taste like?

is this the biggest fuck you to japanese society in modern kids media?

But she's not human.

Not gonna lie, I forgot that scene existed. It's been years since I watched Splash Star.
I agree that it's probably right to move Suite down, but mid tier felt lonely. Maybe GoPri can live there.

But she doesn't stop.

So? Lots of things taste like other things.

Okay but what does that taste like then?

They literally introduce her still doing her job even though she's pregnant

why?

Nah, don't worry, you're doing it the good way. Watching Fresh and Suite back to back is "wrong" in a sense. You'll know once you've watched both Fresh and Suite.

Forgot for a second that there is no real "bad way" to watch precure.

are we sure Tsubomi is the weakest precure?

In theory , there isn't a "wrong" way to watch Precure, but seeing some seasons back to back can hammer or enhace your view of the season you're watching, at least for me watching Suite after Fresh just felt flat, or rather safe played. I just didn't enjoyed Seiren subplot at all.
You haven't seen nothing yet.

like watching FW and MH back to back?

Not really, like watching FW, MH and SS back to back, or Heartcatch and Maho. They're great serie but again it depends how much did you enjoyed/hated the previous seasons.

I want to sniff Melody's socks.

Not him, but Maho would be a nice cool down show to watch after Heartcatch. I don't see a problem with that.

The relay race and the father's day ep? Good shit.

that dork is a huge lezbo

I sense a strong hate towards Bloom and Egret and I hate it.

From who? I don't think Splash Star is disliked. It's just not as idolated as it used to be when it was the season the fewest people had watched. It's still generally regarded as above-average quality, from what I see people say (and what I personally think).

I'm refering to the image-dump, I didn't saw one with them. I know SS isn't! hated at all, if anything people sprout memes before saying that SS was bad

Couldn't save the monstrosity that is Yell, I see.

Wrong.
Explain Smile then, or hell GoGo. The fact that the outfits were better in GoGo is enough proof.

Attached: image%3A4750974.jpg (500x600, 86K)

I'm all for team uniforms, but that doesn't mean they have to look like the Cures cut them out of pillow cases for their school play in third grade. GoGo's uniforms stomp all over Y5's so hard, you'd never believe they were from the same series if you didn't see the people wearing them.

Explain what? I like those too. I also like the HaCha ones. It is possible to like different things.

Fair I guess.

Man, I felt blueballed by that OP, I though by ep 21 the Cures would be pretty popular after all that happened in Yes5 and half of GoGo so I though that they would be more cherished by the people and travel between the town and the city but no, let's just have 1 episode on the city and the rest on the boring town, oh and let's keep the "guy get's knocked out if near a MOTW" formula.

I actually thought GoGo looked worse. I liked them all beeing the same cream color. Their hair was already colorful and differentiating. It became almost jarring to see big single colored blobs moving around instead of cream and a color ones.

Also they got rid of the low necklines and the exposed navels.

Ahhhh, the GoPri reference in Suite. Toei really are bros.

I still think something happened between ep 10 and 20, the tonal shift was big and the dynamics felt forced as fuck, also the complete erasing of Waon and Kanade's senpai (I forgot, sorry). Seiren turning from a interesting and amusing villain to a chinese bootleg Eas, Muse stuff and many other stuff. It really felt weird.

Attached: image%3A4754352.jpg (439x600, 77K)

The episode where Kanade confesses to Hibiki and they make out was pretty good.

I think she was always intended. I think they intentionally were trolling the audience on who would be who throughout the whole first part of the season. They wanted you to think Siren was Muse with the color palette and with that scene of her acting weird after Muse showed up. They wanted you to think Waon was gonna be a cure because of her relationship with Hibiki. They snuck those stilts in for no apparent reason. They just wanted to keep you guessing.

I wonder, which Princess Star Color Pen Madoka will get next week. Hoping it's Gemini.

GAAAAAAAY

Oh we're getting another giant monster fight? Seems so soon since the last one after going so long without one at first.

If you don't think the pens will be useless by ep 22 then you need to watch more Precure.
Those 2 have the best vanilla Yuri doujins out there, I wonder if the Maho doujins are the same quality.

>If you don't think the pens will be useless by ep 22 then you need to watch more Precure.

I'm not sure what you mean or why you said it to me in response to what I said?

It didn't worked for me I guess, I'd take Waon over Seiren any day.

The frecuency of the MotW means more pens recovered, so add them to the ones found at the planets then the sanctuary will be restored in no time. Alternativelly E1 can reverse enginnering how the pens work and make MotW without any pen. Anyways expect more MotW soon.

Attached: D2VZ_VSUYAIGYYq.jpg (2045x625, 591K)

I dunno. I really think we might only get 11 monsters, spaced out somewhat evenly, and that the effects of some of the pens will be endgame tier powers. Right now we've got ones that make your attack stronger and give it some shape. Maybe they get a finisher from one of them and use it for a while. Then some more powerups. Then another new finisher from the last one. Just my guess.

Reverse engineering rare magical items to be able to do the same things as them seems kind of lame.

aaaa help

We got Libra without a monster, so it's gonna be less than 11 monsters (related to the Star Pens anyways)

Oh yeah. Well shit, only 10 then. Seems like a nice round number, I just can't see them making a big deal out of the pens making monsters for her to just reverse engineer them without them. They're also not going to abandon the notRaiders. They're pretty fun bad guys that fit really nicely with the general tone of this season. The monsters almost feel out of place now that I've gotten so used to the mooks. I'm not going to see the fat mook I like this weekend.

What said. We're gonna get more pens even if no MotW is involved, that's why reverse engineering is the only solution for more MotW, plus E1 is the head of the Notraider research center and the "It's was a nice test" line makes me think she'll decipher how the pend work or how to extract the I M A G I N A T I O N from someone.

twitter.com/ne_go_m/status/1111163786965078016

>the only solution for more MotW

What if there aren't going to be that many more though? They should be a more climactic thing. It doesn't really make sense to have one every few episodes. They've got the notRaiders to focus on.

I realize that I tolerate a lot of the shit Negom pulls because she's both a saayafag and madokafag.

>When are we getting those sea-themed outfits anyways?
They were probably just for advertising some store(s).

Pose-wise, she'll almost certainly just go to the right of Star, shoving Soleil over. But I'm also really curious how the relationship dynamics will change, we don't know enough about her yet to predict if she'll get in the way of either of the established pairs. Could be the same as the pose, maybe she'll get chummy with Hikaru so Elena gets her required dose of yellow suffering.

The couple just wants to have a nice fun romantic relationship and all the NTR sluts just want to break it up, fucking losers and shitholes. Sucks for you your efforts also failed to break up Mirai and Liko, sorry but there bond is too strong to break and you will fail miserably if you atempt it again.

Cute. Those donuts will be filled with lots of kirakiraru now

Bit better in that the staff stayed the same throughout it airing

When that day comes there will be bots that can pass the captcha and bukkianon before they die will unleash bukkibot on us

Cute Madoka.

I always knew that Kotori was dating Maki

>Red eyes
Yeah fuck you, now I want it more. Why can't we have nice things?. On the other side Keep Muse, purple looks too much like Moonlight.

Say what you want, but that was a clear smooch, I think there's a pic somewhere related to that.

>Regina
Unf.

And they had to go and ruin them all with those trademark flat samefaces and creepy eyes. Idol anime not meant for children is the worst.

Some user in a previous thread said those were gatcha outfits. Is it from a Precure mobage? Is it fun?

I've come to the conclusion that I enjoy HaCha's romance aspects more than Yes 5's. All the romance plots in HaCha come to a conclusion.

The Precure gacha game is Pazurun, it's a game like Puzzle and Dragons where you draw lines to connect matching orbs. It's not really that fun, but it's a decent time-waster, and the cards are very cute.

They look really ugly.

I agree. HaCha's romance drama was the best Precure has ever executed it, because they actually put in the time to have the characters figure out how they feel and express it to one another.

Yes 5's romance is only superficially present. It treats Coco more or less the same way as FW treats Fujipi-senpai -- he's there for the pink to blush at every ten episodes, and in between, the idea that they have any sort of romantic relationship at all is entirely ignored.

If you showed a random episode of Yes 5 to someone who hasn't ever seen Precure, there's a very good chance that they would not be able to tell you that the show had a romance subplot at all (other than the usual heteronormative stereotype projecting "well of course the main girl and the main guy are love interests" onto it). But if you showed that same person a random episode of HaCha, chances are much higher that they would see, on screen, one (or more!) of the characters actively being involved in a romantic subplot, because they don't stop existing when other things are happening.

How did Suite change from something that was meant to be darker in tone to something lighter? When does that happen?

>That butler
My mind is shit, is that Madoka's butler or E1 one?

People attribute a change to the Tohoku earthquake / tsunami. It occurred really early in the show's run, causing the show to skip a week around episode 5 or 6. Folks often make mention of a postmortem staff interview that directly states they lightened the tone of the series because of it, though I've never seen this interview myself.

The show definitely shifts away from Hibiki and Kanade bitching at each other at some point after episode 10 or so, but it's hard to say how much of that is because of the earthquake and how much was just really poorly handled characterization. The other dark-ish elements of the show, like the mind control earmuffs or whatever, stick around quite a bit longer, so it seems off-base to think that they were written out as a hasty response to the earthquake; it's much more likely IMO that they were written out hastily because the show just didn't have good plotting.

As for the Muse / Waon / etc. stuff, there's no way that's related. It was intentional misdirection, just like Ace. (And similarly, people like to claim that Ace was the result of a rewrite, but there's no good evidence of that either.)

Thanks, I'll check it out to see if I like it

Yeah, since the start, have you not been paying attention to the henshin?

Literally before the first episode, yes.

Two-toned hair was a mistake. Flora looks so much better helmetless, it's not even funny.

I wonder how cuddly Elena is.

Elena is ready to be the mother of 13 kids

The main characters having a stupid fight and getting over it isnt very good evidence that Suite was planned to go a darker route and then got lighter in tone because of an earthquake. Seems more like a nod to FW like the two cure start.

Whoever marries Elena is going to be a really lucky person.

She will probably be a single mother

It's a long held and largely unsubstantiated rumor that Yea Forums likes to repeat because it lets them imagine that Suite might've gone more like their headcanon if it hadn't been for the earthquake.

Worth noting that Seika and Waon had more than just that one episode swerving for them. Hibiki and Kanade's last names both begin with the kanji for north and south, respectively. Just to show how opposite they are, right?

Seika and Waon's last names begin with the kanji for east and west, respectively. Ako and Ellen's last names don't follow that theme.
