Not a bad episode. Haruka's relationship with that guy reminded me of Love and that other guy from Fresh Precure.

.. For some reason, I can't stop myself from shipping Haruka X Yuuki. I hope Toei doesn't let a character like that go to waste. D:

Oh shit, not Mana again...
Can't they realize that she sucks?

Also, Regina (another anoying character) is back too even though she isn't Precure?


Anyway, about this, and next episode...
It seems this is starting to be Haruka-only show.

Too bad.

Good episode!! Liked the Haruka development and how she decided to WRECK Yuuki for mocking her dream until she realized that he was also working towards his dream and she should help him out.
I hope they stay friends and there isn't any romance, but that's probably because I'm afraid they'll handle it HORRIBLY like they did in HappinessCharge. If they do it right, then I'll be fine with it.

By the way, the opening is showing sequences where there are past Precures... Are they clips from a new movie?

I'm also iffy about next week's episode being another Haruka episode, but it's MUCH too early to say that this is starting to be a Haruka-only show. She needs to be developed and so does Minami. I hope that after Haruka's, there'll be some Minami episodes and then Kirara.
However, I fear that the second half of the show will shove Minami and Kirara into the corner to make Haruka the sole protagonist, like the terrible final episodes of HappinessCharge did.
I REALLY hope that this show develops all these main characters consistently, without giving Haruka all the spotlight in the end. It's okay if she gets to be a bit more important (she is the main character after all) but Minami and Kirara should still fight with her and get their own development.

I liked this episode. There was a good bit of character development for Haruka, and it introduced Miss Shamour's human form. (Seriously her powers seem helpful)

I don't mind another Haruka centric episode, I'm sure the others will get theirs in due time. Plus Haruka was really cute in this one!

If there is any romance in this series, it won't be Haruka and Yuuki, it will most likely be Haruka and Kanata, since that's being built up quite a bit. But, Yuuki will probably return!

Too bad.

Actually, I don't mind the Haruka episodes because I need her to be developed to find her likeable. I'm sure that Kirara and Minami will get theirs soon.

(what's with the Regina and Mana hate, they are not that terrible?? plus I'm pretty sure the kids love them)

I hope they don't do romance in this series.

Yes, the movie Haru no Carnival!!
The past isn't important. What is important is whether or not you can smile right now.

To me it feels like it's going to be a Fresh Precure case. Since we know there will be a Cure Scarlet, probably the second part will be about her and Haruka. But, Kirara is already popular, so it would be strange to toss her aside.

An alright episode.
The training part with Miss Shamour was pretty fun and get to see in her human form now.

Crying because the Queens of Precure (Cure Black & White) looked so good in the opening. Also, Cure Black kicking ass like always :)

Gotta admit Cure Black and White are the strongest Precure characters like they should be.

Now I will actually watch the episode....

This was a good.

Got some Haruka development and we got to see Miss Shamour in her human form. Fight was pretty good to.

I want to see that movie lol.

So far I like all of the precure characters, but I am also scared about the show focusing too much on Haruka. After DokiDoki and (I haven't finished it yet) what I heard from HappinessCharge, it seems like a real possibility. And the OP song seems to have a connection between the violin girl and Haruka, which could mirror Mana/Regina BS from DokiDoki. For now though, I will stay optimistic.

I also agree with people who say that Haruka does need development. So I have no issue with episodes about her, but I just want the series to stay balanced.

That opening animation is just cheating since I came off of watching Heartcatch Precure! recently. x.x

I think the criticism of Haruka-centered episodes is coming waaaaay too early. She still needs plenty of development, so they will be welcome for quite awhile yet. Episodes for Megumi and Kirara will probably come soon.

Keeping in mind that I haven't seen Happiness Charge, I wouldn't mind some romance. It would be pretty interesting to see Haruka x Yuuki, but Haruka x Kanata is probably a lot more likely if this series does end up having romance.

I don't mind that this episode (or more in the future) focuses on on Haruka. I really like her as a character! My favorite is still Kirara, so I hope she gets some more spotlight too, of course. Overall this episode was pretty good. I liked seeing the cat-thingy as a hot tennis teacher. I think it's cool that they have what basically amounts to a holodeck, to get all kinds of training. I hope they use this creatively in the future, too!

Pretty average episode, but at least there was some nice character development for Haruka.

Miss Shamour's human form was beautiful. :)
