Max Heart as in the sequel to Futari Wa, not Heartcatch. And Max Heart was a bit of a slog.

>>35732
Right sorry, don't know how I misread that. Yeah max heart really was a bit much. The inclusion of the most useless precure to date did not help out that season one bit.

Walking(hopping) around on her fins like that is probably going to leave them looking like Muromi-san's.

The glass dome on this train makes no sense!

What a whale of a problem...

The new season is delicious!

Kawaii!!

This doesn't seem very appealing.

It's very common in Spain and maybe Italy.
It somehow works well. Also a typical lazy supper since it requires not effort.

Melon by itself makes me nauseous.

Even watermelon? I don't particularly like cantaloupe/honeydew because it has a weird aftertaste, but watermelon doesn't taste like other things in the melon family

>>36104
>Even watermelon?
yes
edit: I also hate cucumbers. Maybe it has something to do with them being related

I hate pretty much all of these

But it is a special kind of ham or something isn't it? Smoked or something.
>>36105
Problem with cucumbers is the smell.

This baddy sure likes to give the others a hard time for how they do their job, for someone who hasn't done a thing.

Setting all the action segments in Monument Valle seems like a really weird design decision. They do this kind of thing for a bunch of practical reasons in super sentai. It's cheaper, and easier to film in those locations and they can use pyrotechnics without bothering anyone, ect Not to mention they can film a bunch of stuff back to back and edit it in later.
I can't understand why they would do it for something 2D. Past precure series have had boring enough fights without this. Now you just have the same exact bland and uninspired location every ep. It also feels like it really lowers the stakes if the fights take place in a safe little bubble.
If they're trying to save time/money by recycling background art, I haven't noticed. I've been zoning out more than ever when the fights start.

At first I was like "These two seem like they'd be good friends."

Then I was like "...They're gonna lez out, aren't they?"

I wonder who's decision it was to make this 30 year old man just chill out with a group of 14 and under girls? And why they thought it wouldn't be weird or awkward?

There's potential for a fantastic doujin otome game about Kokone breaking out of her shell and romancing the cast. Not just the other PreCure but Gentlu if you snatch her up early, or Takumi stolen out from under stupid oblivious Yui, or Kome-kome if you like oneeloli, or of course Narcistoru because he's the bad boy.

The next precure is actually going to have blue be the main focus?!

>>36517
I think it's meant to be okay because he takes it up the butt, so that makes him non-threatening to the girls while simultaneously protecting him from criticism by people who would be labeled as <derogatory noun> for complaining about him being there. Why they felt precure needed such a character? Hell if I know. It could be someone at Toei pushing a political agenda, but it's such a weird place to do it. Maybe their goal is to indoctrinate children from an early age? If anyone honestly thinks it's a creative decision, I have a bridge to sell them. He simply doesn't belong. Even if you put the sexuality aside, they're simply too old to be hanging out with kids like that. A middle aged woman hanging out with the group would be just as awkward. He's a tacked on third wheel in an already problematic season. It's like this season is a poorly made burnt cake, and he's the raw fish they slapped on top of it.

New precure just humming along.

Has anyone here been keeping up with the latest precure? The current season is actually pretty good for a change. I think they realized the quality was really falling and things were getting very stagnate on top of that. Feels like a real return to form this time around, while also trying to make things fresh. This is the first time they've ever had a non-pink for a lead, they also included a 18 year old cure and a male cure. Things overall feel better written, with better character dynamics and fights that actually have half way decent choreography.
I don't think I'd call it the best season ever, but they're at least 'trying' this time around, and it shows.

>>37103
PreCure got old to me when they picked the most boring outcome to the Nodoka/Daruizen storyline. The changes for the series brought me back. Wing's introduction episode is probably my favorite one for any Cure ever, and I also really like Ageha, so I'm excited for Butterfly's debut.

>>37113
I don't think you were missing much in the seasons between.

>>37114
I've heard good things about TR, so I might watch that someday. Everything I've seen of DP has seemed like cheap phoned-in crap, from the recycled premise that they had just done in Kirakira to the Delicious Field. I'm not even going to bother with it.

>>37116
TR did have some fun elements to it. If you liked Smile precure you might enjoy it, but a lot of people disliked the direction they took with the mermaid.

DP was indeed about as lazy as you can get. The theme was flimsy and better done in à la Mode. The animation was bad, writing was weak, characters forgettable. stakes were low (until the very end). The subplot with the middle aged guy and his former friend and teacher wasn't very interesting to me. They even teleported the characters to the same exact location for the second half of every ep, adding to how repetitive it all felt. It had decent character designs but that was all.

Pre-Cure Mayday

I never understood the waterfall training thing. What does it accomplish?

Did it take 18 ep for cure butterfly to make her appearance, because she's 18?

Marriage material right here, boys.

Would you take it with you?

Let go anon, let go...

seeing cures from different seasons aged up together only reinforces my theory that all the normal precure series we've seen take place at the same time, just in different parts of the country.

>>37498
Those seasons were only a year apart from each other. Those characters would be around the same age anyway.

There's that infamous Japanese work culture.

The animation really goes from 0 to 60 in a heartbeat.

cheers!

Drunk precures... there's a first...

This has some oddly depressing undertones so far, with how upbeat and optimistic precure usually is. It opens with messages about global warming and pollution, and we find the old gang mostly succeeded in following their dreams but doesn't seem like it's really working out as well as they'd have hoped. From a teacher failing to help her students to an artist that can't get a job. They're all Christmas cakes too.

It's probably safe to assume adults who watched the original as children are struggling now that they're adults, so I guess it's probably the theme they're working towards, to not give up hope.

Were they unable to find a better quality source for the flash backs?

I know that feeling...

It's nice to see things are going well for at least one of them.

Has anyone here seen Wonderful yet?

>>37935
I really like it so far but some people are complaining about "chase action" instead of fights. I think it's cute.
