Let’s goo we were due for a Kokoro episode! Proud of my girl for standing up to Chiyo and changing her mind in the end. Some strong Love Live vibes in today’s episode. We saved the Idol Precure research club! Chiyo was moving like hater of the century until she got saved by the girls. Still don’t really get her reasoning, but she won’t be in a rush to get rid of the club anytime soon lol.

We have a Kaito episode coming up next week, but I’m wondering when we’re gonna start getting into the Darkine stuff? Feels like this was the first time she was mentioned in forever and we only have a handful of episodes left. How are they going to deal with her and explore her as an antagonist? Wanpre had been dealing with their big bad for a while by now same with Hirosky.

Fight the person that want to abolish the club. And that's it.

I'm truly beginning to worry about Darkine, we are like single digit to the end, and last time she kinda appeared was 20 episodes ago(?). Hope I'm wrong, but direction is dragging their feet and will want to then rush in 1-2 episodes.
Now next episode is Kaito bullpoop.

There isn't much to say about this one. The student council president candidate Chiyo wants to disband the Idol Pretty Cure Research Club, Kokoro is only running against her because she wants to save the club. After the Pretty Cures rescue her, she's inspired to change her mind, and when she does get elected (unopposed, after Kokoro dropped out), she lets the club stay.

Next week's episode appears to be important to the plot, and Kaito looks like he's going to be a big part of it...

Very good episode, despite being the same thing about a Cure becoming the president of the student council and then immediately dropping everything like Sailor Venus did in the 90's SM anime when she had the possibility to become an Idol, thing already used in other seasons. And, mind you, Kyun Kyun is my least favourite of the Cure (I don't know why but apparently I'm not into purple cures, despite my love for purple). But hey, I'm currently watching the so-much lauded and a bit overrated Kamen Rider Build (it's good, but not the alpha and omega of the franchise somebody makes out of it) and I didn't complain when its start literally recycled/reused the start of Kamen Rider 555, so it's ok. 8 out 10, just because I don't care for Kyun Kyun. Same rating I will probably give to KR Build, of all things. About the next episode, if I get that friggin' r-18 Uta Sakura/Cure Idol Dakimakura I've recently ordered in time I will laugh my ass off at the dating thing of my wife with him in the previous Akiko Inoue episode (with all do respect for her). I will laugh at that and at this useless idiot being on the screen while holding my Love between my arms. Now to finish Build! as an ending note, no No. 1 Sentai Gozyuger today. Like I wrote on Toei's twitter account, I had enough of the double recaps in Urutoraman Taiga a week or so ago, so it will be missed.

This is why I hate the logic of kid friendly anime; someone is trying to abolish your club… so that makes them kind?

Ohh good episode!
I need somebody who can love me at my worst
No, I'm not perfect, but I hope you see my worth
'Cause it's only you, nobody new, I put you first
And for you, girl, I swear I'll do the worst

If you stay forever, let me hold your hand
I can fill those places in your heart no else can
Let me show you love, oh, I don't pretend, yeah
I'll be right here, baby, you know I'll sink or swim

@ProudElitist im curious, is there a specific reason you don't like cure kyun-kyun? I feel like she's one of the better written characters of this season even though I love them all equally

@Maryachu it has nothing to do with the character (provided the characters are not the main focus of the IP like they aren't of the Toei Superhero tokusatsus, the cures not being uberboring mary sues suffices) and all to do with the fact that I have no idea why but (GASP!GULP!THE HORROR!) I don't find attractive the cures with Purple Hair, even in other shows of the IP I've seen I don't know why I find all the cures attractive except the Pink Haired and the Purple Haired ones. The fully-blown Purple and Pink haired, with those with shades of Pink but the rest of the hair with another colour like Laura/Cure La Mer and Natsumi/Cure Summer I have no problems whatsover (I consider them my own wives too). For now, at least.

I know this is a Kokoro episode, but Purirun made me laugh so hard with the ice cream. :D

anyway, that's a mature decision by Kokoro to forfeit the presidency. She's popular and have a good chance of winning, but she knows Chiyo can do more.

also, I notice that Kokoro and Meroron are the two most aggressive in defending the idol club.

Leader of "Idol research" club speaks about how cures are amazing, excludes cure Kyun-Kyun and goes "kyun-kyun" in the next sentence, and her favorite color is purple? What else do these people want to guess what her identity is!

@ajw215799 Right?? If it were me, I would transform into a cure and beat her ass until she changes her mind lol. Screw kindness! Show kids that being bad is good sometimes, especially when it comes to "no joy allowed" people 😤
