So Nodoka's mom had to take a leave of work to take care of her, but now that's she's a-okay, she's back to work, as a truck delivery driver!

For a moment there it looked like we were about to get our first general vs cure fight, but Nodoka went to help her friends instead.

Love how Precure always low-key breaking gender boundary, in this episode we see Nodoka's mom is the truck driver, an occupation the society think usually reserved for men only.

It's always amusing to me when Daruizen speaks since he has the same seiyuu as Eizouken's Kanamori, and I keep imagining her as a Precure villain. Feels kind of fitting.

This episode hit me pretty hard on a personal level with the part where Nodoka mentioned how lonely she felt everytime she didn't see her mother around while she was struggling with her health issues. That reminded me of the week after an operation I had when I was 11 where at max I could see my parents once per day through a window. That feeling of not knowing how things would go and if you would ever see them around you anymore is agonizing, thankfully for both of us seems that everything turned out ok n_n

Nodoka's mom is great and I'm happy we got to know a bit more about her (I want to see how she met her husband tho!) Seeing that her daughter made two great friends already must be so relieving, because moving to a new place + the struggles Nodoka already had to make friends thanks to her problems must create so so many worries about how things will go for her and if she will be happy in this new place, but looks like there is nothing to worry about.

On another note, the freaking villains lmao, Guaiwaru's burns on Shindoine were hilarious, and we also got to see how much of a piece of shit Daruizen can be. I found very interesting how he literally put the infected ground on the face of Rabbirin and Nodoka while they couldn't move, felt so so personal compared to the usual attacks we expect to see. I'm very interested on this season's baddies.

Daruizen is a little freak 0 _ 0 When he was covering Nodoka and Rabbirin it felt super intense I was kind of surprised it was that 'violent' for lack of a better word. We will probably get a lot of very interesting fight scenes this season!

Was anyone else getting a vibe that Daruizen might be the reformed villain? Out of all of them, his motivation seems like it could be affected the most. Shindione is fanatical about Lord Pathogerm, and so far we know very little Guaiwaru's motivations, but we've all seen that once villains start caring about others besides themself they usually ally with the precure and I feel like that might be Daruizen's arc. Especially because he just became fascinated with Cure Grace!

Orrrr maybe I just think he's a pretty anime boy lol. Still, it's a great episode, and the series definitely gives off the soothing atmosphere they wanted.

Fingers crossed that if Daruizen is like any GoPri villain he turns out like Shut, who went through a really tough time but got help and support from the precure.

saving the strawberry farm from pathogerms. Did Nodoka see the guy hurt her mom? Or did she arrive her mom is already unconscious? I'm curious of this as she seems to be not very angry, so I assume she did not see what he did.

I'm really liking this show. It seems this PreCure is getting better and better while stakes of the battle against the villains get higher and higher. But I' m worried that the coronavirus outbreak will hurt future episodes of this PreCure show.

It's cool that Nodoka's mom is a truck driver. From the seasons i've seen (and even other magical girl series), most main precure's moms are stay at home or have a really fancy job (ex. Hana's mom being a journalist, so many moms being doctors). Real nice change of pace!

The element was voiced by Furirin again! Hearing her definitely motivates me to keep watching

Aww, Latte misses her mom. :(

Nodoka's mom being a truck driver is pretty cool! I'm happy she went back to work.

Daruizen is such a violent freak. I hate that guy.
