| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Well, Makoto took the job of cooking and choose Mana house, she mess up everything lol but she didn't cut the carrots but the whole board in half lol. She went back and decide to practice with Mana and the rest and wow she mastered the cooking in just one day. Well, she exposed herself as Cure Sword and become friends with Mana and the rest. Oh that human transform reminds me of Coco and nutz from Precure 5. Next episode? They will work together and the bonds of them will get stronger. Sorry for my bad english. |

Nothing ventured, nothing gained (Girls und Panzer der Film ) / from Nishizumi Miho |
| i had mixed feelings about this episode. i mean its cute and sweet as usual and a little girls show doesnt have to make much sense, but still... don't get me wrong, i love precure, and i like the episode too but i just hope the staffs could put more effort into the show... |
| Just when we thought we are seeing MakoP's clumsy side, we actually also got to see her elite side as she picked up cooking in such a short time. And given we have such elite Precure, I guess we need some really powered-up monsters too, and so to keep us less bored (all of us have seen how weak these Jikochu monsters are already, right?) out of all sudden we see ONE YEAR passed at the end of the episode. WHAT?!? |
| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| Worst Jikochu ever, a growing pig, it's like Toei wasn't even trying this episode, at least the monsters in the next episode look to be at least a challenge, I hope. Makoto has some nice cooking skills, just not a gentle touch, she broke everything at first then thanks to Mana and the others she got the hang of things. |
 |
| These monsters of the week are so stupid! I mean, sometimes in Heartcatch, their Heart Flowers were wilting for stupid reasons but every reason this show gives for being "selfish" is just dumb! That whole episode was bad except for the end. I hope for better next week. I am glad Sword joined them though... |
| Good to see Mana's "pink leader personality flaw" in action and that she is aware of it - rushing into action without thinking is not always good thing, this is nice touch. Very good Makopi-centric episode I might say: showing her cute side but also resolve not to give up, also bit of human touch - no emo, no superiority complex like certain other violet failure of a Precure, she just wanted them to help her/be friends. And in next episode we will probably have this. I don't care about the monster :) it can be weak, dumb (still it's way better than let's say Wig Monster or other Wester's plans) but this episode had some decent character development, and it's still some time for bigger enemies. |
| I wish they would improve the fighting scenes, but otherwise I liked this episode. |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| @Nidhoeggr I second that. The past two Precures (this and Smile) just haven't had good fighting scenes... |
| That's true. I hope next week is better! |
elior1 said: Not sure - it seems it will be some talking about what happened, who was that person Makopi was singing to and stuff like this...Shoujo-K said: well since they now arrived at the thrump kingdom and the big villains in there there is a chance the fights will improve@Nidhoeggr I second that. The past two Precures (this and Smile) just haven't had good fighting scenes... but than I'm not here for fights so I don't mind :) |
| Agreed that the monster-of-the-week was disappointing because there wasn't much of a fight, but I was more disappointed that they were obviously padding for time with the transformation sequences. Don't get me wrong, I love each transformation, but it's about time for the streamlined approach. I'm looking forward to hearing what's the deal with the Trump Kingdom next week. Also, is it just me, or does Cure Sword remind anyone else of the Starlights from Sailor Moon? (Minus the gender change, of course.) |
 |
| why does Japan think Charles is a girl's name? |
| One of my favorite episodes yet. I loved the time that Makopi spent with the other girls, though my only complaint is that Toei needs to combine the three girls' transformations already! Maybe they'll save that though for when Makopi stops being an adorable tsundere and truly accepts herself in the group. The fight was pretty meh, but the development at the end plus the twist made up for it, and you can tell the fight wasn't the main focus of this episode at all. Next week, come faster. |
 |
| Does anyone have any information on the 2014 Precure? If not, can you tell me when that information usually comes out? Thanks! |
| Boo... |
| New Stage 2 clips in the opening, as expected. I couldn’t help but grin through the whole sequence, and seeing all the girls again brings out some fuzzy nostalgia within me. I’m envious of those who can watch it once it comes out next Saturday. Nice episode overall. I like how we get to see some scenes from Makopi’s perspective, giving a bit more depth of her character. Now I’m curious about her relation with the princess/the person she’s looking for. At first I thought she was some sort of bodyguard, but that scene where she sings for said person when the Trump Kingdom was still intact seems to imply more about their relationship. It’s a pleasant surprise to see it end with a cliffhanger; I don’t think the past seasons have had that this early. Next episode sounds interesting. |
| Another one hit kill battle. I sure hope this will change after this episode or else this season won't be much different than the previous. |
 |
| The movie trailer in the middle of the opening kind of threw me off. Then again, I'm new to the franchise. And judging by the response, I'm guessing this is common practice. Anyway, the fight scene was kind of weak and the transformations, while visually stunning, drag on for way too long. I can stand one or two at a time but three is just overkill. Luckily the episode was rich in characterisation and had some really funny moments. My favourite part of the episode has to be when Makopi smashed the eggs together. Also I really liked the cliffhanger ending. Looks like they're finally explaining Cure Sword's backstory. It'll be a nice change of pace from the monster of the week. It's still got over 40 episodes to go which means the inevitable filler episodes will pop their head up at some point. But so far, the show is doing a great job of keeping me invested. On another note, Fucking 4kids! |

| Let me guess...that lollipop was a cigarette originally? They did the same thing with Sanji in One Piece -_- |
Jason- said: My bad as I meant it as a joke. I meant to say that in the trailer we see something like the last boss and usually this kind of last boss we get to see only near the end of the series, which is like almost one year from now. So I was joking that the pace of the series seems to have switched to a fast mode that we get to see the last boss and with the old man cadre villain some much stronger Jikochu.symbv said: Where are you getting this idea that a year passed from?And given we have such elite Precure, I guess we need some really powered-up monsters too, and so to keep us less bored (all of us have seen how weak these Jikochu monsters are already, right?) out of all sudden we see ONE YEAR passed at the end of the episode.

SquadmemberRitsu said: Yes it is indeed common. Every year there is a new PreCure movie and every time it will use its OP as the advertisement platform. Save some precious CM slot time -- pretty smart, isn't it? The movie trailer in the middle of the opening kind of threw me off. Then again, I'm new to the franchise. And judging by the response, I'm guessing this is common practice. SquadmemberRitsu said: Well, actually there are four as you have to count the (new) transformation scene of MakoP/Cure Sword as well. And I think you need to cut the anime some slack. Don't forget you are watching an anime with the main target being 6-11 year old girls.And I am sure they would like to see other transformation scenes for comparison when there is a new transformation scene coming up.the transformations, while visually stunning, drag on for way too long. I can stand one or two at a time but three is just overkill. |

symbv said: It's still not bad as All Star Movies with 20+ Precures transforming :D Well, actually there are four as you have to count the (new) transformation scene of MakoP/Cure Sword as well. And I think you need to cut the anime some slack. Don't forget you are watching an anime with the main target being 6-11 year old girls.And I am sure they would like to see other transformation scenes for comparison when there is a new transformation scene coming up. But soon I think they will switch to all 4 girls transforming at once (split screen and all that) it was always like this - so we need only wait 3 or 4 episodes for it. Than probably in the middle again (if they will go with some new fancy upgrade along the way). PS. There are two movies - one is All Star or whatever it's called now opportunity to see how first two generations were awesome, and than in Fall there will be additional DokiDoki movie. |
| I never thought it's was a cigaret for him. For the episode 6 : loved the twist at the end from the start of the show. It's a little strange for me. O_o I began to watch precure from HC and it's the first time they do that from the beginning. |
 |
| Yeah! I was wondering when the old man would show up. He's every bit intimidating and powerful as I expected. Looks like an intense episode next week. |
| i lol at MakoPi's cooking skills. It was quite a mess. |
| Wow, the look of the old man villain is actually based on the look of the seiyuu who voiced the character! |

|
| Aww...I think Makoto was so happy she almost cried. *sniff* I hope they reveal the princess soon enough. And if Dabyi can turn human, I hope we can see Lance, Raqcuel, and Sharuru's human forms in the near future. |

O_o I began to watch precure from HC and it's the first time they do that from the beginning. If I recall, the original Pretty Cure (Futari Wa) had the Dark King show up fairly early to order around his subordinates, but they didn't actually get to face him down proper until the midway point of the series (it was kinda divided into two story halves). Pretty Cure Splash Star did the same thing, only in that case the Cures were most certainly not ready for how powerful the huge evil king guy was, and had to escape. ...If I remember right. It's been a few years. *puts both on his rewatch list* In Splash Star Gohyaan pops up every once in awhile and kicks their butts, but I can't remember if Akudaikan ever showed up. I know there was a fight with him before the final episodes, but it's been so long I can't remember everything well. |

| "So, can you wash the carrots for me? "Sure." "D-don't use detergent!" LMAO. xD That was hilarious. "The blade of courage, Cure Sword!" It was nice to see Makoto's transformation. |
