We pitch a PreCure season themed around mechs!

Delicious Party PreCure

We cover both episodes 2 and 3- in which Mari breaks up with Yui for her own good, and we meet the second energy fairy Pam Pam! We also discuss the heartbreaking framing of Kome Kome's desire to be appreciated.

Max Heart PreCure

The second episode of Max Heart formally introduced Hikari Kujou, the mysterious girl. And a new villain in the form of Dracula!

Suite PreCure

Covering episodes 3 and 4, we see Hibiki's troubled relationship with her dad and music, and kanade's cakes! No one knows Kanade's cakes better than Hibiki. Why are you giggling?

We pitch a PreCure season themed around bugs!

Delicious Party PreCure

With a new season comes a new cure, a new mentor figure, a new fairy, and new villains! Did this show serve a premium first bite of deliciousness, or did it leave a funny taste in our mouths? We loved every minute of it, and especially Yui and Kome Kome for their adorableness. Itadakimasu

Max Heart PreCure

We watched the first episode of Max Heart, and found it was much what we expected- not a ton happened, but we liked the visuals and are intrigued by the mysterious new girl... whoever could she be?

Suite PreCure

We review episodes 1 & 2 of Suite, and are absolutely delighted by our lead cures, and we don't find Hummy suspicious at all! We try to decide which of us is Hibiki and which is Kanade, and who has the better outfit as a PreCure.

In this final episode we reflect on Tropical Rouge's ending (and the journey so far), as well as the final episodes of Fresh PreCure. We spend time deliberating on awards to give to various characters and other related PreCure things- who did we decide was best girl? Who was "Most Likely to get Kicked Out of an AppleBee's" ?

Next week we'll be hosting an award show for Tropical Rouge, and we're looking for your nominations! What superlative would you give the girls (e.g. "Most likely to be banned from a McDonald's" or "Most likely to star in a kung-fu action movie")

Tropical Rouge

Episode 45 gives us the intense final battle with Butler, the return of PreCure Giant Lady (Tropical edition), and Laura must make a choice. It's looking like next episode will be really emotional, and we're not ready.

Fresh PreCure

We cover episodes 45-47, which involves the PreCure revealing their identities to their family, a cute moment between Love and Daisuke, the dreaded DELETE HOLE, a donut revolution, and the final battles against Westar, Soular, and Northa. We also must bid farewell to Westar and Soular, who are lost to the delete hole- a tragic end that sounds far funnier than the scene actually was.

If Tropical Rouge PreCure had given each girl a personal fairy (a la Futari Wa, Heartcatch, or Healin' Good), what would their designs and personalities be?

Futari Wa PreCure

Having finished episodes 48 and 49, our time with Futari Wa PreCure has come to an end. We not only talk about the final battle(s), but look back on the first season- what worked for us and what didn't?

Tropical Rouge

Episode 44 is another lore-heavy episode, detailing the Witch of Destruction's past and reveals the legendary PreCure's name! All hope seems lost as the witch begins to rampage but then Manatsu saves the day with kindness! Tune in next week to see how the team will defeat the true final boss: Big Butler! Who may or may not count as a dragon

Fresh PreCure

We cover episodes 42-44. the first two are basically a two parter which pits the PreCure against Labyrinth's sorrow gauge and Northa's devious plans. Setsuna tries to sacrifice herself and then the girls get sprayed with scarecow gas before Chiffon uses a spirit bomb to save the day. 44 is about a dance competition and Daisuke trying to make the PreCure's defeat about his bad day. Now's not the time, Daisuke!

In episode 43 of Tropical Rouge, we're heading into the end game, where Laura learns the Mermaid Queen once went to the human world, and Manatsu decides to just ask the Witch of Delays what her deal is. Oh, and the Fool's Casket will kill all life on earth and Butler turns Chongi-re into a yarane-da. Yeah. It's that kind of episode

Futari Wa PreCure

We cover episodes 46 & 47, which are also the beginning of the end game - the Evil seeds have taken the power of the stones and now the girls must face the ultimate goo monster in the Dokutsu zone

Fresh PreCure

We cover episodes 40 and 41, which focus on Setsuna's relationship with Love's family and Buki being on a boat, respectively. We also give props to episode 40 for being genuinely creepy with an evil doppleganger of Ayumi Momozona

Futari Wa PreCure

This week we're covering episodes 44 and 45, which are a Christmas episode and an episode about a singing competition. Joel really liked the singing competition, and Kiriya also made a brief appearance- what could it mean? Fresh PreCure

This week we watched the Fresh movie, "The Kingdom of Toys has Lots of Secrets!?" in which we go to toy land to save children from having their toys taken away! Setsuna has her best outfit yet, Love fights a kung fu mannequinn, AND Love takes on a new form!

If the Tropical Club had Stands like Jojo's Bizarre Adventure characters, what would be their names and abilities?

Main Discussion

Episode 42 is more preparation for Tro-fest and a look back on other clubs from throughout the series. Laura is troubled by what may happen when it is time to return to the Gran Ocean, Minori is struggling to find the perfect ending, and- oh yeah- Manatsu gets eaten by a whale. We're in the end game now, PreCure fans. Also check out this hilarious Jojo's video that we reference throughout today's episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bC6C-GrAO2U

Futari Wa PreCure

Episode 43 is the first episode to give Fuji P and Nagisa a real interaction, and once again we are asking Nagisa to try and take any action whatsoever. Really, though, this episode shows us what an excellent partner Honoka is to Nagisa.

Fresh PreCure

We cover episodes 37-39, which involve a training facility and a shallow falling out between the Fresh girls, Miki giving a small child the Clover Box and losing it (surprising no one), and a trip to Okinawa for Love and her class, giving us Love and Daisuke moments. And we continue to love Westar who is the Best... star

Discussion Question

What humorous situation has ended each Tropical Club member on Santa's naughty list?

Main Discussion

Episode 41 is mostly a clip show, so we don't have much to discuss. However, Minori does give us an insight into her OC and goes a bit intense. Also for the love of all things good and pure, someone listen to what Kururun has to say!

Futari Wa PreCure

Episode 42 of Futari Wa asks if Honoka and Nagisa can function without each other, and it turns out this builds Nagisa's character and brings the two closer together.

Fresh PreCure

Covering both episodes 35 and 36, we get some backstory on Chiffon AKA Infinity, plus the most powerful general appears. We also take a moment to be disgusted by the general appearance of the liquid in the sorrow gauge. It's best not to think about.

Papaya Thoughts

Ode to the Papaya

O Papaya, how sweet is your nectar. Allow your taste to dance across my tongue. O Papaya, how generous is your color, May your splendor be renowned around the world O Papaya, how frightening your power Thy strength shakes me to the bones

What method would we use to fill the despair gauge if we served Labyrinth?

Main Discussion

Episode 40 is all about papayas! Minori wants to write but can't because she's never tasted a papaya- a powerful metaphor.

Futari Wa PreCure

Episode 41 of Futari Wa tells two unrelated stories: One about the lacrosse championships, and one about the power of annihilation, which is apparently eating the evil generals!

Fresh PreCure

episode 33 focuses on Miki and Setsuna's relationship, and the deep terror of octupi. episode 34 is... well, it wouldn't be inaccurate to compare it to a "mess." The bad guys stop time, but not in a fun or interesting way
