Ah, yes. The old as time episode that one of the Cures can have an international career, and need to choose between the future or the be a Cure.
Not that was really explored really Nana's piano talent, honestly.

I like Meroron just saying to forget about being a Cure and think about. Good friend.

One of my fave episodes so far! I’m so proud of Nana for staying true to herself and opting to develop her own seven colored melody! Rather than compromising and giving up her friends or her dream to play with her mom, she chose both. It’ll be difficult, but everything that’s worth having in life is. I can’t wait to see where her piano journey leads her. So nice to see Nana’s mom again after such a long time too, but surely she’s gotta pick up on Nana being wink, right?

“If my oshi graduated I’ll have nothing left.” Zakkurin is so real lmao. Never in doubt that Nana would stay with the girls, but how tf did she get back in town quick enough to help in the fight today lol?? That aside, I also love how Meroron encouraged Nana to follow her dreams and take her time deciding her next steps, just like Nana did for her when Meroron was in her tsundere era lol.

“Ever since I was little, you’re the idol I adore” 🥹 can’t even imagine how it has to feel as a parent to be told that. Such a beautiful moment and episode for mother and daughter today!

With this we are now only 9 episodes from the end. Next episode appears to be Kokoro focused so I expect we will get another episode focused on Merron and Purirun, a Chokkirine redemption episode, two episodes to the Jogi & Kaito story leaving with 3 episodes for the climax and an epilogue episode where hopefully we can meet the cure for the next season.

This day should be remembered as the Akiko Inoue day. This episode was legitimately great and for whatever reason it reminded me of the first few episodes her father wrote in Choushinsei Flashman (particularly the episode where Yellow Flash and Pink Flash have a small fight between themselves) despite being based on the same old premise of Sailor Mercury/Ami Mizuno going abroad etc. etc, the No. 1 Sentai Gozyuger written by her is very good and its only real annoyance is the Dekaranger cameo (series of which I couldn't care less even if I tried), I guess the old Inoue thing of hoping for a light to help you in turbulent times has became reality. She has shone both in this episode and in Gozyuger while all the harsh controversy sorrounding the latter is going on. Also, THANK YOU TOEI for scrapping the garbage Pink Hair/Red Dress transformation of my wife Uta/Cure Idol, which is nowhere to be found in these 24 minutes! 9 for this episode, 8 for the Gozyuger one.

Well, everyone knew Nana wasn't really going to move away, although I must have missed her rainbow colored barrier, as well as the episode implying that her mom knows her secret identity. Still, Nana staying was...unfortunately for the best. While the family would be back together again in France, it would have meant leaving her friends, and the team, but that may be another story.

The next episode has Kokoro's club (forget the exact name) disbanded? Kokoro is definitely going to do something about that. Still, everyone will just have to see...

I don't think the Idol Heart Ribbon Style is gone (it's definitely not "scrapped" either, because that would mean it wasn't used at all in the season and would instead be cut content; think scrapped designs for a character, for example). It just wasn't present this week because this was a Nana/Cure Wink focused episode.

@Rozu667 whatever, I'm just happy to not have seen it. And the less I see it, the better.

Ah the obligatory PreCure group being threatened by one of the members prospect of moving away. Tanaka is an idiot, “Cure Wink will graduate from Idol PreCure”… you don’t graduate from having responsibilities of fighting evil. I really hate how this PreCure generation keeps acting as if they’re real idols with real idol problems. They’re magical girls who happened to trend online with music

@ajw215799 it's not Jin Tanaka that wrote this episode (he has no involvement whatsoever with Kimi To Idol, actually. Luckily so), it's Akiko Inoue. And it wouldn't be an idea of hack Jin Tanaka the same, it's taken from the episode of Sailor Moon where Sailor Mercury needs to go abroad to study and she doesn't know if she wants to do it or not, and it ends with the other Sailor Senshi supporting her choice to go abroad AND Sailor Mercury deciding to not do it because she doesn't want to leave the girls. This episode right here https://wikimoon.org/index.php/The_Friendship_of_the_Sailor_Senshi!_Goodbye_Ami but it's nothing out of the ordinary for tokusatsu-like series to repeat the same concept and same episodes over and over and over. It's also one of the best episodes from the 90's Sailor Moon anime Masterpiece in general.

@ProudElitist what are you on about? I’m on about Tanaka the character. Plus an episode dedicated to the threat of a Cure moving away has been featured many times in PreCure history

@ajw215799 I'm talking about the guy who was the main writer of the horrible Go Princess Precure. I know it has been featured many times, I've already seen it in Delicious Party Precure. But it all originated from that episode of Sailor Moon I was mentioning. But again, nothing out of the ordinary for something that is a superhero tokusatsu under the surface.

enjoyed watching this, because Nana is my favorite character.
she is the reason I followed this anime for so long.
also like how Meroron has been reformed into a better person, as shown in this episode. She is able to be friends with others, and not focused only on Purirun.

looking forward to the Kokoro themed episode which is coming next.

@BlichoBoy exactly... This episode theme is really getting old. It got no tension, no motivation, no nothing. It's really frustrating that every time this happens, the girl concerned just throws away her dreams.

Im wondering - cant cures fly? Or at least do huge jumps. Maybe nana could stay in France and when there would be trouble or she'd miss her friends, she could transform and fly to Japan real quick xD
