WARNING: BECAUSE OF REASONS I MUST TELL EVERYONE UNDER THE AGE OF 18 TO GET OUT OF MY BLOG! OBEY OR I’LL BE DEFENESTRATED! ALSO BE WARY OF WILD ROAMING SPOILERS! YOU’VE BEEN WARNED!

Welcome back. Last time in this blog I finished finally a blog I promised doing ages ago because scanlations are very inconsistent. Now seems another girl wants to be blogged and since Christmas is so close might as well deliver the wish.

: Zettai, sorry to break the news but you’re not Santa or anything similar.

Ho ho ho!

: Hey, no mean insults!

: Lass lass lass!

: Much better. So who is the girl?

Not right now, first instead let’s go buy some bread.

: Huh?

Just look! *takes both girls to the Panpaka Bread store fast*

: Welcome! Oh, look, that must be Zettai!

: Slave, hope there is a reason for this girl to recognize you like that.

Of course, as this girl is...



: Yeah, and heard from Zettai thanks to Honoka and the other Cures always bringing up all the blogs! Thanks for beating Mana back when she went evil by the way.

: Hold one second, what does “went” evil mean?

Mistress, just pretend we are meant to like the girl.

: So seems you know why we are here.

: Yes! And would love to have a blog like my fellows did! Though hope you will cover girls from Yes and Happiness Charge someday too.

Maybe next year!

: Then go ahead!

Head

Hair
Saki has mid brown hair. Sadly the hairstyle is somewhat lacking, due to her bangs being pushed back to show more forehead much like Aguri would do years later. While some people could find this hairstyle endearing I disagree with that. On top of that Saki hair kinda short hair only reaching her neck tops. At least the hair decs are cute. When transformed in either form Saki gets slightly longer slightly lighter hair, the hair itself gets “wider” with more volume, and she gets a golden hairband with a heart that gives her a crown of hair so to say. While the transformed form is better and this rarely happens in the series neither form is that amazing, hence poor Saki suffers from this.
Grade: B-

Eyes
Saki has mid brown eyes. For some reason all early Cures have eyes matching their hair to keep the Doremi thing going on, and that works really well for Saki as brown eyes are great. They get lighter too when transformed, but still nice. The shape is between tsurime and tareme though mostly almond-like and looks great. The pupils are very Shoujo-like with details but not bad. The only issue is unsurprisingly the eyelashes many Cures sadly have, but other than that Saki has nice eyes. Of note like Honoka back then she has thick eyebrows and looks cute like this.
Grade: A-

: So why bringing up eyebrows?

Because those are always amusing.

: Not sure why, but have fun in that case!

: And besides Topaz likes the topic.

: How unsurprising he likes things big.

Hey!

: No badmouthing others! And no touching my ass either!

Sorry... *removes hand slowly*

: Idiot.

Body

Build
Saki looks nice like all Cures usually do. This might sound repetitive being the third Cure blog in such a short amount of time, but bears repeating Saki looks cute and slender without being too thin and overall looks nice though could use better thighs, even though the small breasts are welcome. As usual she lacks measurements so not much to add here. Of note is she does the Chie thing of being the shorter one despite being the masculine one in the team, though since Nagisa from the original series was the same this is not surprising. In fact Smile was the first show not to do this, kinda amusing considering that was the original copycat season if still fun. Another thing she shares with Nagisa is having darker skin than her companion due to being the sporty one, nothing wrong here. In fact basically that describes Saki well as there is nothing wrong with her but could still be better.
Grade: A-

Butt
Saki does not show her butt much as expected, but surprisingly there’s one good shot of her backside in the first ending of all places. Looks fairly nice. Either way Tsubomi is still the assiest pink.
Grade: C-

: Speaking of Tsubomi there is this move she taught me for such blogs...

Really?

: Yeah! Just behold this BUTT PUNCH! *smashes Zettai’s face with her middle school ass*

YES! YES!

: So will this give me more points?

Sorry, but only show stuff counts.

: Drats.

: Rules are rules.

Clothes
Saki has some decent costumes. The default one would be her school uniform as usual, in this case a yellow blazer-type with a red ribbon and an orange pleated skirt. The original season was better for these purposes but this is not bad either. Speaking of uniforms her white softball clothes are alright, at least she gets a cute hat and are tight. Saki also wears various normal clothes, overall not bad and oddly more feminine than Nagisa’s wardrobe despite being similar girls. Though amusingly both girls own pink jackets. As for the transformed forms Cure Bloom has a pink and white suit with cute detached sleeves and matching boots, shoulder pads, a cute miniskirt over the spats-like bottom part, and a red ribbon on her chest area. Though maybe is a dress with spats, hard to tell. As for the alternate form Cure Bright that one is similar but very yellow with the originally golden bits now purple as the shoulder pads are now puffy shoulders. Both forms have belts and heart accessories covering all over and lots of cute stuff. The movies also have upgrades with small variations, nothing worth going into detail though. Overall this makes Saki fairly good even if could be better.
Grade: B

Mind

Personality
Saki first met Mai five years before the series started under the huge Sky Tree guided by mysterious lights. Soon after Mai left the town, but now she’s back and the lights also come back to reveal the truth of actually being fairy mascots, one of them voiced by the late Miyu Matsuki so rest in peace, and how the two girls must become Pretty Cure to fight evil. In this case Dark Fall are the villains looking for the Seven Holy Fountains hidden in the Land of Fountains meaning Earth just in case. Getting all would allow the villains get the World Tree and that would be bad, and of course that means working hard for Saki and Mai against the villains. During the fights the two developed a strong friendship and befriended another two cute villainesses so they could fight together in epic showdowns against awesome badass villains.

While this might be old hat by now Saki is based on Nagisa from the original series. Not hard to tell either as both girls are energetic hungry sports girls bad at the artsy stuff their friend loves tons but still are supportive of said friend. That said, there is a big difference between Nagisa and Honoka and here Saki and Mai and that would be Saki and Mai show better their strong friendship. This can look strange but basically means Saki and Mai are clearly more supportive of each other’s hobbies and loves, as shown with Saki trying to draw something for Mai for her birthday and Mai being so attentive to the way Saki plays softball that she can spot posture flaws. Meanwhile with the original duo Honoka merely saw Nagisa play lacrosse and Nagisa did nothing at all. Okay, that admittedly sounds harsh with the original duo as both girls had plenty of sweet moments together as well, but overall Saki and Mai just feel closer. That aside Saki as said loves eating and will eventually inherit the family bread store Panpaka Bread since in fact being a baker is her future goal. For now she also plays softball as the pitcher and while good she actually loses a decisive match, something that was very surprising after Nagisa won every match by scoring at the last second. Literally every single freaking match, because this franchise lacks creativity. And yet ironically Saki and Mai feel different from the original duo. Lastly there is Saki’s most surprising trait: despite being a pink Cure the spotlight hogging is minimal at best to the point she essentially has none. Considering how terrible the series sometimes get with that issue, just look at GoPri for proof, this is very surprising and makes Saki look better. Sadly the current crossover movies have series-wide bias for the pink Cures and that is including poor Saki as well, but since that’s just the crossover movies I will not hold it against the bread lover. And lest we forget Saki has two transformations, first in Cure Bloom and later in the stronger faster Cure Bright which in retrospect is weird. Both forms grant crazy superhuman abilities, barriers, drawing spirit power, doing cool combined attacks with even more available with not included toy upgrades, and as Bright firing huge beams single. Is all really awesome and both girls have some of the most GAR fights in the franchise. In conclusion Saki is a solid heroine and even ranks overall second in my fav pink Cure list thanks to being so awesome despite the issues her theme color generally brings.
Grade: B+

: So most pink Cures are problematic?

Some are and especially in newer seasons. Too much spotlight hog and not enough screentime for others are bad for the show. That and spamming combination attacks.

: ...And yet me and Mai attacking together always is fine?

Yeah, simply because THAT did not take a minute and a half to use. Toei has been saving enough money to animate like 14 episodes or so with the last four seasons.

: Slave, consider that budget saved for Dragon Ball Super and Digimon tri among others.

: Considering that one terrible Super episode maybe there should be more stock footage.

No, as any more and the entire episode will be stock footage.

: What are you guys talking about? Eh, matters not really!

Libido
Saki has some romance in that she’s got a crush on Mai’s older brother, and liking older guys is never bad. Much like Nagisa’s crush on her senpai this goes unnoticed. Besides that there is the far more popular pairing of Saki with Mai herself as usual in this franchise, and gives all the many cute moments the two share together this one actually works quite well. In fact I would go as far as claim this duo makes for my second favorite Cure yuri couple, and that is saying something. Too bad the series being relatively unpopular cuts down on the nice fanart. And since this time I dunno much about general status of doujinshi for the series I dunno if she or Mai are the futa one usually. But these things aside Saki is very solid for these matters.
Grade: B

Age
Saki is in the second year of middle school like most Cures and thus 13-14 or ideal for my wacky tastes. For some reason early Cures have birthdays and she has the 7th of August and so she has the top coolest of all Zodiac signs in Leo and this is not bias at all. Better than the other Leo pink Cure for sure.
Grade: A+

Voice
Orie Kimoto actually debuted as Saki and did pretty well actually. Notably seems Atsuko Enomoto and the other VAs had to cheer on her due to her insecurities and that sounds cute. Sadly despite this being quite good she lacks roles. Besides this do note Saki is like Nagisa and has a catchphrase too, this being “zekkouchou nari” or “full of energy” so obviously she says this when pumped up solely and while not as silly as Nagisa’s was is still pretty nice. Saki is also bad at pronouncing strange names as seen with Miss Shitataare or the Haru no Carnival lame villains.
Grade: B

Total: 76 (B)

: Awesome, better score than Reika did back then!

Right, but some Cures have scored better... Though checking back seems I really was harsh with her libido for some reason.

: And this shows blogs can change.

Right, but there are differences between one or two odd blogs and changing the way things have been done for years...

: And this is why you always throw tantrums whenever Topaz scores flat girls poorly.

Sorry...

Ninja: SUDDENLY NINJA! *flips in and tries to kill Zettai just like that*

: Not so fast! *blocks the ninja’s attack quickly*

Ninja: Heh heh, well done... I have been sent by a certain villain of yours to get things done early, but seems there will be a small complication...

Curses, this one villain is not happy with waiting until the month is over!

Ninja: Something about wanting to have Christmas in peace despite being “summer” or something like that.

Well, at least it’ll be summer in the southern hemisphere...

: Sorry, but that is as far you will go! *transforms up somehow*



: What.

: HAAAH! *charges at the ninja fast*

Ninja: Hah, time to do the old replacement tri-

: TIGER SHOOT! *kicks the ninja really hard*

Ninja: NO WAAAAAAAAAAAAY! *flies off really hard and goes through a random net until smashing against the wall*

: Victory, yay! I’m full of energy! *celebrates with self-spanks of sexiness*

Awesome work there! Though now I wonder who is after me even if it should be obvious considering the pattern.

: Pattern?

First faced an Ogura voice girl, then faced a Kanazawa voice one, next was from Noto of course... Who could be next then?

: Yukari Tamura!

: Nothing to worry, already taught that openly masochistic girl a few things!

Doubt the not-Momo will be the villain. Needs to be someone bigger and badder, with more of a wicked presence...

: Find that villain and kick her sorry ass! But first have this letter!

So many letters... *reads*

: Well?

For now we should cover the girl who sent this letter, as apparently she was a special homage idol or something and deserves her own chance.

: Not to mention Takane hijacked back then her blog by using her fat ass.

Exactly. So off to meet that idol we go! *departs with the two assistants*

: Please have a nice trip! But think you forgot to buy some bread...
