Larryb posted:He’s got that little box thing so I wonder if we’re ever going to get a proper transformation sequence for him. I WANT ITTT his hair changes color for Black Pepper so you know he's gotta have some sorta sparkles goin' down Also being fully honest, with the Toei hack putting everything on hold and taking a break, I've now fully forgotten why the bad guys are collecting recipipis. I'm watching the episodes not even sure why the enemies are attacking. Because Godatz wants all the recipes....for.....something? Usually at this point in the season we've had a big mid-season showdown that puts us into the second stage of the plot and we've got a more concrete villain motive established. But that hasn't really happened for DeliPa. I'm hoping it's because they're deciding to delve more into the CooKingdom political intrigue stuff and that it turns out Godatz is a former Cook Fighter or something, so the motives are intentionally vague to cover up some plot reveal. I know these are children's shows so they don't really go too deep into villains, but they do at least try to put some basic motivations into their actions usually.

Based on the episode titles a new villain might be joining the Bundoru Gang next week at least but we’ll see how that goes

A fun little mascot episode this week (complete with yet another evolution for KomeKome at the end) with some decent fights as well including a one on one duel between Narcistoru and Amane Based on the preview and the lack of news leading up to it I’d say we’ve got a 50-50 shot at this point of either legitimately introducing a new villain next time or having it just be a fakeout (I’m hoping hard for the former) Edit: In rewatching the preview coupled with the end of the most recent episode it seems likely that the “new phantom thief” may actually be some sort of robot Narcistoru created Considering we’ve still got a good 20+ episodes left in the series at this point I would hope we get at least some sort of major shakeup with the Bundoru Gang in the near future though (or maybe even pull a Maho Girls and eventually swap them out for a brand new threat) Narcistoru was raising some major death flags by the end of tonight’s episode though so he might be on his way out regardless Larryb fucked around with this message at 04:53 on Aug 21, 2022 |

I also like that his power was essentially a miracle light for the villains, good to see he’s gonna be sticking around for a bit I enjoyed them bringing back the classic powerup of “punch harder” as well Speaking of powerups, a recent commercial seems to have leaked a new form for Yui: https://youtube.com/watch?v=FPJ2mv3m2ec Larryb fucked around with this message at 03:56 on Aug 28, 2022 |

In Delicious Party news, a new weapon/form has been revealed: Weapon Name: Party Candle Tact and Party Up Ring. Form Name: Party Up Style. Attack Name: “Pretty Cure! Light My Delicious!” And some new episode titles to go with it: Ep 26: Kokone's Promise! Challenging King Green Pepper Ep 27: Kome-Kome's Big Transformation!? Ran's Happy Plan Ep 28: Kome-Kome's Power For Everyone...! Party Candle Tact! Ep 29: A Delicious Paradise! Let's Go ! To CooKingdom! Despite being the supposed main character Yui still hasn’t gotten much if any spotlight episodes (also if she keeps growing KomeKome is going to be older than the Cures themselves by the time the show is over)

Takumi felt more like a proper member of the team this week as well which is nice. Speaking of, give the boy a transformation sequence already (even if it’s just a one time thing like 90’s Tuxedo Mask)

It seems we are actually getting a crossover of sorts this year in the form of a short that will be ran prior to the start of the Delicious Party movie: https://twitter.com/precure_movie/status/1570200726420217856 I like that they included Hikaru seeing as Tropical Rouge didn’t have an All Stars movie and Miracle Leap was basically just The Nodoka Movie with cameos by Hugtto, Star Twinkle, and her own team

Its really good Same with early Cure Summer who looks like a cross between Sailor Moon and Princess Daisy from the Mario series (also Papaya apparently was going to keep her glasses even in Cure form and Laura honestly looks pretty good with green hair) Multi-arm Kururun is the stuff of nightmares though (I do like the little antennae however)

Mew Mew being a lean adaptation of the manga and lacking the filler of the original definitely hurt the series I found. Just no focus on side characters or fun filler episodes Also yeah it being a het romance and action being more beam is also hard to go back too. And this doesn't have the nostalgia of Sailor Moon to carry it for me

Much like 90’s Sailor Moon the added filler is ironically what made these kind of shows memorable in the first place

These adaptations can be perfectly lean and still, Eternal Season 3 worked fine, it's just a very fine line to walk that seems to only have been done by the one season that didn't need a retelling. Sometimes you biff it so hard you just have to throw your hands up and just have to Ideon-gun the Four Kings of Heaven out of existence to do what you probably should have done in the first instance.

E-yup. See in the original, the Elite Four all got dusted (In brutal-for-shojo-manga fashion, I'll add) by the guardians during their fights. That didn't happen in Crystal for what can only be described as 'reasons', keeping them alive until the endgame where they were all unceremoniously freed from their brainwashing and then vaporised by Queen Metal's 'Big Beam She Totally Has, Trust Us' attack. It's that sort of no-hope spinelessness that gives me no hope for Cosmos. You had the Higurashi director, RIGHT. THERE. For goodness sake!

In regards to this week’s Delicious Party, Secretoru has finally gotten off her rear end and went out into the field herself (and it seems she’s basically the second in command of the group for good reason as she’s by far the strongest member the gang has faced so far) The cameos at the end were neat too (and I imagine there’s gonna be more where that came from seeing as the 20th anniversary is coming up pretty soon now).

Delicious Party 30: It’s time for our legally required Precure festival episode and it wasn’t a bad Mari spotlight (also I liked the modified Toei logo at the start of Ran’s video). We also properly meet Yui’s late grandmother Yone in a flashback Seems Secretoru’s power is literally erasing food from existence and the Bundoru Gang has a bunch of spare Delicousstones in their possession (which lends further credence to my current theory that Godatz is/was a high ranking CooKingdom resident) Spiritoru has also finally been added to the OP as well (along with what appear to be several mini Spiritoru drones) so I assume we’ll be seeing him in action again eventually

That was a pretty unique episode to be honest, no monster, no Bundoru Gang, and it stuck to the whole Prince & the Pauper routine to the end (plus I believe this our first real Yui spotlight since the very start of the series) I wouldn’t mind if Precure did more episodes like this and the shorts episode of Tropical Rouge in the future honestly

Due to this new fancy laptop having a small hard drive I can only watch one series at a time. I'm finally getting back around to finishing Healin' Good. Their super outfits this season are kind of boring, not different enough from their normal outfits outside of the wings imo. I still don't care for this ending song.
