Both are more absurdist seasons that throw the zany at you nearly every episode. Five leads whose differing personalities playfully bounce off one another, colourful locations for some enjoyable battles, and antagonists that are just trying to do their best.

For those who fell in love with Nagisa and Honoka, this second season brings more of the same with the addition of Hikari to the main cast. Nothing stellar, but a nice continuation for major Cure Black & Cure White fans.

The duo dynamic is back, with a greater focus on magical realms and colourful spells! Mirai and Riko's friendship will have Futari wa fans pleasantly surprised, and Ha-Chan's halfway entry is a load of fun. A similarly split plot, with different villains in the former and latter halves, but with refined animation and some killer enchantments.

An episodic series dealing with the price one must pay when they abuse the supernatural, though there is a greater focus on comedy and slapstick.
