Well when Meroron challenged the girls to a “rivalry” last week, I didn’t think they’d pay it off soon and certainly didn’t expect it to be a cooking contest of all things 😂 As you’d expect, didn’t last long and it all worked out in the end as we now officially have the full team. Glad they’re finally all together and smiling again!

Can’t really fault Pretty Holic for wanting to cash in on the popularity of the new cures and peoples’ natural curiosity about who’s “better” Perfect opportunity for Meroron to settle her beef with Uta too. Lmao at Tanaka having to put on a hazmat mask because of Purirun’s cooking.

Brief interruption in the cooking contest for this week’s fight! Finally we get a Kurayaminda that requires all the girls to work together. Thank you Zakkuri! Also fitting the person he turned into this week’s monster was planning to cook for her beloved.

Even after the takedown, Meroron still being a hater and not wanting Zukyoon and Idol to celebrate together is so funny to me. Honestly feel bad for her, but I love how she basically fell in love again at the end there when Zukyoon tried cheering her up too, paying off her line earlier about Zukyoon’s ability to make anyone fall in love instantly!

I really enjoyed the Zukyoonkiss arc, but I am glad we’re moving on at this point. I would really like to see some more Nana focused episodes, especially since today was her birthday. Happy birthday to the most underrated character in the series! I feel like she’s been criminally neglected at this point.

Meroron is the break away from the comedy cook trope, while cooking may look dubious, but in the end turns out great.

Now this new ED is finally one that was put more effort. Compared to some the non-idol Precure series the first one was bland.

I'll say one thing about this episode, at least Purirun has...some understanding of what friendship is all about. Of course, the same can't be said for Meroron, who still doesn't get why she isn't the only one Purirun thinks about. If Meroron wants to get her "nee-tama" to pay attention to her, she needs to stop trying to hog Purirun all to herself, and she needs to stop trying to be the center of Purirun's attention. It's also clear that Meroron doesn't have any real understanding of what friendship is all about, but Meroron does have a good heart deep down, and I'm sure she'll understand at some point.

One part I can say I didn't like was how Meroron appeared to make something horrible, only for the show to go "Psych!", and have it turn out be really delicious food. You wanna know what I do like here: Purirun saying that everyone wins. To me this shows that she really doesn't want "Idol Pretty Cure" and "ZukyoonKiss" to be rivals. She wants all five Cures, including herself, to work together as one team, and I'm certain that's what will happen. I mean, why else would the new ending theme have all five of them sing. Cure Idol even got to sing lead on the song...

The next episode has them working on their signatures...you know, for giving autographs. There's probably more to it, but everyone will have to tune in to see what happens...

This is just getting really bad now; Meroron is annoying and ZukyoonKiss are just in the way and hogging all the spotlight.

enjoyed the new ending song. It has a nice calming effect. Also nice to see all 5 cures dancing.

almost the entire episode is Meroron once again trying to monopolize Purirun, but she fail as usual. Well, it's a little sad to see Kiss sitting alone in the waiting room, but her onee-sama cheer her again. lol

and those foods that they cooked all look delicious. ^^
I thought the food Mero cooked will be terrible, but she's actually good at cooking.

Did anybody notice that this episode is a 100% clone of the typical formula of "heroes vs. previous heroes" of Toei tokusatsus that Toei likes so much that they make even movies out of it? The various Kamen Rider vs. Kamen Rider, Sentai vs. Sentai, etc. etc. etc. It's not a formula I particularly like because I don't need heroes smashing their faces one to each other to buy action figures (I'm not a child), but I've seen it and tolerated in the likes of the episodes of Zyuohger where they confront the Gokaiger team or in the episodes where the (old, at the time) Juuko B-Fighter busted the ass of the B-Fighter Kabuto team. A clone with a magical girl topping taken from Hime-Chan No Ribbon (the thing about the cuisine competition etc. etc.). I had no friggin' idea the transition between the tokusatsu part at the core of this franchise and the magical girl topping had become so seamless and perfected. Also, I don't get all this raving about Meroron, I'm not the biggest Gai from Choujin Sentai Jetman aficionado (I'm not supposed to empathize with shoujo bad boys like him) but she's him without White Swan and the bad boy thing of infidelity.
