I am a big Precure fan. I like all of the series, but, as of now, I really, really, really love the series from Heartcatch through Doki Doki. I also love Futari wa Precure: Splash Star. All of the series are kawaii*, gentle, and fun, but I think that those series also have deep meaning.
This year’s series is Hugtto Precure. Like Heartcatch and Doki Doki, in this series, the villains make monsters from the faults of humans. I think it is very interesting.
This week’s episode is Episode 11. I think it is a wonderful episode.
Last week, the protagonist, Nono Hana, lost her confidence, and because of that, she was not able to transform into Cure Yell. This week, thanks to her precious friends, she regained some of her confidence and was able to transform again. As is often the case in Precure, after overcoming her difficulties, she leveled up. A Precure Sword appeared. Dashing, isn’t it?
But then, something surprising happened. She was able to see the monster’s True Self.
Saying, “This is wrong. This is not the Precure I want to become!” Cure Yell threw down the sword.
Then she hugged the monster.
After that, the Precure Sword disappeared, and in its place, a wand appeared.
Wands appeared for the other Precure as well. Then Cure Yell said, “This is my encouragement; this is the Precure I want to become.”
Admirable, isn’t it? Wonderful, isn’t it? I think that this is very appropriate to the theme of this site.
I am looking forward to the next episode.
