How can Minami be so cute yet so mature and refined at the same time?
>>134446373
She's like a Christmas cake but still young.
>>134445579
That was the idea after last time, but I think we all know which is the right one this time.
>>134446511
But the way her mom looks she will age quite gracefully.

I'm going to marry Haruharu!
At this rate, it would be just weird to pick the other ones after this one already has 5+ posts
Plus Minamin a cute

I wish someone would translate and sub the character shows. People from Japan post entire shows pretty regularly.
Seems like only the Heartcatch stage musical is the only one to get such respect.
>>134447148
I much prefer Miyuki to her mother.
I think Bukki is KNPK, not MKTN.
My favorite GoPri character is Minamin and not Kirara. This goes for porn also.
Makopi is cute.
I find Haruyama overrated because I like the women to actually be nude.
>>134447310

You won't need to hear much. It's mostly the same dialogue from the show and the same "PRECURE-SAN, BAIBAI."

I think Precure should stop fighting monsters exclusively building-sized and should instead have a season where the MOTW are a little taller than human sized like Sentai or KR MOTW.
That way, the fisticuffs aren't paper cutouts flying around followed by finisher.

I wish Precure stopped taking it's cues from Super Sentai and took a more Rider-like series format.
>>134447148
I think Precure should have more character focus on things that aren't Pink.

What's disappointing are the form changes.
Out of all the forms we've seen, they pretty much all do the same thing except musashi and newton.
>>134449071
Things have been better since Specter but overall it's rather bland.
I hope we don't have a repeat eyecon collecthaton afterwards. Gaim used to be the same at first but got fun when pokemon dancing invess got dropped for other things.

Alright.
You guys got me hooked, that was pretty good.
I take back what I said, Peace is actually the cutest.
I just realized that Fresh will be the 400th anime I've completed. I hope it lives up to that pressure (I'm two episodes away from Cure Passion's debut and so far I really like it. Not as much as Yes 5, but its enjoyable).
>>134452003
She really is.Also, good choice for a first pick, because Smile Precure was the first season I watched too. You probably should.
>>134452192
>400th anime
>Expecting Fresh to live up to the standards of a commemorative anime
Oh boy.
>>134452192
People keep tracks of how many anime they've watched in their lives?
One of this lovely cat's favorite things to do is to just sit down with a nice cup of hot coffee and write a bit of her next song. Tonight, it looks like the Melody of Happiness's notes are giving her some help.
>>134447148
I think HC's designs ranged from rather bland to bad. Umakoshi's art is undeniably good though.
>>134452257
Back before torrenting made watching shit so easy, I bought my anime. At one point I had around 500-600 anime DVD's but I gradually sold all of it, I only kept my Yu Yu Hakusho set, but I was so used to seeing a collection at that point that I (autistically) had to compile everything on AniDB.
>>134452241
Does Fresh really go downhill at some point? Am I going to have to wait for my 500th anime to have a good celebration?
>>134452760
Depends. IMO Fresh is good throughout with a really great finale, but it's pretty clear that some characters got shafted somewhere along the way, its power-up finisher (and the ep where they gain the finisher) is also one of the most stupid finishers in the franchise.
>>134452859
>stupid finisher
Fresh finisher is great though
>>134452859
>it's pretty clear that some characters got shafted somewhere along the way
I hope not Miki. She's best Fresh girl - which I wasn't expecting from a blue.

>>134452760
Don't listen to that anon, Fresh is a candidate for best Precure.
>>134452979
Miki's plotline with her brother is almost completely dropped. Bukki is more shafted, though.
>>134452241
Says the anon using a pic from Smile.
>>134454884
I'm not even saying Smile is commemoration-worthy.
Still, you do have a fair point.
>>134449714
Yeah. Drive, Gaim, and Wizard all had better belts that didn't just look like a big chunk of plastic.
So I saw both Max Heart movies.
I'm slightly disappointed that the movies were only an hour each, but still, they were pretty good.
I also kinda wish they chose to forego the stock footage in place of actually reanimating the spell in question in the environment.
The fight scenes were pretty good though.For a second I forgot something and thought I could watch Yes5 next.But instead, now I gotta watchSplash Star.
>>134457116
Yeah tje first two Precure movies were super cheap direct to TV movies K believe
>>134457157
>Direct-to-TV
Huh.
I thought those especially were theater released movies. Or, at least, I know one of these Precure movies somewhere is.
Maybe I'm thinking of the New Stage ones.
>>134457157
No they weren't. They had theatrical releases.
>>134457157
If you want to remember the movies being theatrical releases the next time, just ingrain the image of little kids crying over Black and White fighting each other in the dark theater. This is why we don't have Cures fighting their teammates anymore.
>>134457292
Yeah that's right, thanks anon
Spent the last 5 or so episodes of GoPri skimming through them on a streaming site. I think I just don't care anymore, like I swear they've done this exact plotline with Kirara earlier on. It's just so bland and boring now.
>>134457394

This is why I started skipping most episodes that didn't have Fujimura in them about halfway through.
>>134457394
The latest episode was pretty good though, but yeah.
>>134457394
Welcome to precure.
>>134453206
Do you have a source or collection of evidence for that? Mktn having a scrapped plotline wasn't something I noticed when I watched Fresh.
>>134458996
Not that anon, and I don't have evidence, but when you have an apparently sick relative of a main character introduced, and then don't touch upon the subject or that character at all, you know that something's been dropped off the storyboard.
>>134459133
Oh, I thought it had something to do with (from a previous thread) Kazuki actually being her boyfriend and the brother thing was a cop-out.

I think Precure is a shit anime, we should be ashamed of ourselves because this shit is repetitive crap aimed at 5 years old girls and i watched Smile because i love masturbating to Yayoi porn over and over then becoming deppresed because i will never insert my benis inside an innocent young girl like her. Sometimes when i see a young blond girl i think in kidnapping her, dresss her as yayoi (including hair) then force her to behave/talk like yayoi. Then make my darkest fantasies true and when cops come to finish me ill take a pic, post it here and kill myself.

>>134447148
I think Splash Star is one of the best seasons behind Y5 and Fresh.
Happiness Charge did romance better than anything else in precure, even that really good Smile episode.
Heartcatch isn't actually that good and pretty much the only thing it has going for it is 10/10 artwork. Umakoshi and budget, yay.

Why do all of you seem to be depressed/self-loathing? I thought this was a dumb happy show.
>>134462937
We watched this show because of the way we are.
>>134462937
I watch it mainly because I want to see the cool fight choreography. It's like I'm a kid watching DBZ all over again.

>>134462937
It's that precisely because it's a dumb happy show that it makes me so depressed. Whenever I watch an ep of Precure, I feel happy and warm and fuzzy inside, but once that ep ends, I realize that the only thing that makes me genuinely happy in life is a 24 minutes animation for 5 years old and it makes me even more depressed.

Yes. As is the insatiable lust for money.
>>134465450
Honestly, probably the DX movies. Heartcatch many incredible fights, as well as some of the longest ones. GoPri has excellent shorter scenes every 2-3 episodes, as well as some really solid work during the climaxes. Smile had great cure vs general episodes.
If you just want single episodes, HC-34, Smile-23, Yes5-12.

heartcatch didn't have a substantially higher budget than any other precure.

>>134470489
Lately, some anons have gone very negative. They seem to not be able to have fun with Precure anymore.
Is it just advanced shitposting or are their lives so depressive as to be unable to enjoy a simple to understand little girls chinese cartoon?
>>134471037
Or maybe, you know, they just don't like GoPri for X or Y reason? What's with you guys and your train of thought that anyone who dislikes a single aspect of any of the entries of the franchise means they completely hate the entire franchise, can't have fun and are just bitter people?
Understanding doesn't always equate to liking or agreeing with.
>>134471147
There's also a bit of a lack of understanding. Strange, but probably related to feeling bad. They say winter is the worst season for depression, so who knows.

I remember one anon saying they liked how Flora looked during the fight with buff Close and asked who animated the scene. Luckily for that anon, Watanabe will be the animation director for episode 47, titled "Like a Flower...! Strong, Kind, Beautiful!"

>>134472675
>this place has gotten ridiculously negative, though.
The only thing I've seen lately that's been really out of place is the HaCha "discussions". Everything else has been normal for /pc/ standards.
>>134472762
except the predictions they've made have been wrong as often as they've been accurate, but of course people only remember the predictions that came true.
>>134472773
to be honest, I was thinking of them. they were just a slightly more extreme version of current /pc/ culture, not actually different from it. /ai/ isn't anywhere near this level of negativity.
>>134473079
/ai/ shows barely have anything that could be discussed in the long-run considering how very very much episodic and plotless they are in comparison to /pc/

There was an interesting case example last night. Someone called Sumire bland and pointless (well now, doesn't that sound familiar?). It was handled pretty similarly to how things start here, but nobody got angry and aggressive. It ended quickly and without incident.
All little girl shows are currently just shadows of their former selves in ratings, quality and discussion material.

Or you could talk about the good of it, what you like and other positive qualities. What's the matter? Or could it be there's none so you can't say any?
>>134476978
Why are you being aggressive? Are you trying to prove something? I'm quite comfortable in our recent discussions about the consequences of Kirara's choice to leave in spring and what this will say about the overall theme of chasing your dreams, not being tied to the same place as your friends.

>>134477089

"Interesting" might be overstating it, but I'm enjoying GoPri for sure. I'm not sure anyone necessarily wants to talk about it 24/7, though. Do you really think that that's the benchmark for a good series?
>>134477209
>Do you really think that that's the benchmark for a good series?
People spoke about Madoka 24/7 and we all know Madoka it's one of the best series of all time. So yes, people speaking of things can be a measure of how good of it is.
>>134477209
It's not the case that all shows folks want to talk about are good, but it is the case that all good shows make people want to talk about them.
>>134477282
Keep going, I'm losing my sides here.
>>134477319
But not all the time. Then you just either keep talking about the same things, or convince yourself of a development that will never come and leave you disappointed.
>>134477319
>>134476898
Being a good series doesn't mean people will always talk about it, by that logic Suite is terrible because threads died when it was airing and HC is definitely worst than all, Smile, Doki and HaCha, because those had 24/7 threads and HC didn't.
>>134477465
You're not wrong, but the better a great work is, the more unique things can be said about it. GoPri talk sustains a single thread per episode at most; I can't imagine we'll be saying much of anything about it in a year.
>>134477481
>by that logic Suite is terrible
Sounds about right, then.
But consider also: the real measure isn't the talk during the show, but how long it persists afterwards.
>>134477581
A bunch of people will be saying it was better than maho, a bunch will say it was shit, just like every year.
>>134477581
I can. Not all good shows require tons of discussion to be considered as such. For instance, Aria is well loved, but even when it was airing what was there to say? Slice of life shows in general can be liked by tons of people, but other than talking about what you like about the characters and dumping images there's not much to be found.
Creations where we can definitively say right after finishing “It’s for this particular reason that this work is fantastic!” are nice, but we should value works where we get the feeling there’s something important in them, yet we can’t really express it, so we just mull it over and say “I’m not really sure, but I think I might be spending a lot of time with this.”

>>134477807
I'm also saying that Aria's great, just to be clear.
>>134477647
Again, by that logic Madoka is the best anime of this decade and One Punch Man is the best anime of the year. And both of those are probably unpopular subjective opinions.
Also, Suite is the best Precure after Yes!5.
>>134477752
RinRin?
>>134477843
And I'm saying that if there's nothing to say about it, I don't agree. (I haven't seen Aria, I'm just talking in principle.)
>>134477844
No, that's not the case. >>134477282
>It's not the case that all shows folks want to talk about are good, but it is the case that all good shows make people want to talk about them.
>>134477926
You got any more comics? It would be nice to break up this lovely discussion.
>>134477943
I like logic and reason too, but funnily enough Makopi has a point: >>134477735. There isn't much weight in just the words "that was badass and hotblooded!" like in the case of a show like Gurren Lagann, but the feeling it gives you is almost impossible to explain to someone who doesn't understand. Going back to Aria, how do you explain "healing" anime to someone who's never seen one? You have to share in the feeling before you can even begin to talk about it, and words don't convey it properly. That's how a show can be enjoyable, great, and not have much to talk about.
>>134476978
I love this, you're insinuating that GoPro fans are bad but you're the one trying instigate shit for no reason. I'd rather have no discussion than meaningless shit flinging.
>lovely discussion
>>134478109
Great works inspire a lot of discussion precisely because it's not easy to put them into words. It takes a lot of time, thought, and discussion to work out what makes them tick. If it were easy, it wouldn't take any time.
To "spend a lot of time with" a work (as Fafoo says) means to think a lot about it, and if you can do that, you can write about it. If there's anything to think about, there's also things to talk about. And to put that the other way around, if there's nothing to talk about, there's nothing to think about. There's no reason to spend a lot of time with something that's not worth thinking about.
>GoPrifags are scared of discussion because they are unable of defending their show
>>134477943
>all good shows make people want to talk about them.
I don't that's true, some things are simply not popular no matter how good they are, just look at how Princess Tutu was not popular at all with no one back when it aired, but now is generally considered one of the best shows of the last decade or how Suite and Smile were hated in here for a long time until they have been recently accepted as good.
GoPri is having a small positive acceptance considering how fairly liked it is at this last cour, time will say how good or bad it actually was.
>>134477581
I actually imagine we'll be talking about the fighting for a while. I don't see it being topped any time soon, anyhow.
1-hour drawing incoming.
Today's theme is about the villain group of Fresh Precure: Labyrinth.
http://sakuramochi.mydns.jp/precure/1draw-collections/date/2015-12-07?lang=en
http://togetter.com/li/909956?lang=enLabyrinth is literally the Millenium Kingdom of Shin Megami Tensei.
>>134478869
I miss Northa, it's too bad she was only around for a tiny part of Fresh. She was actually menacing (I guess a bit like Anacondy).
>>134478529
Please stop, anon. If we require everyone who posts an opinion to defend it in a verbal battle to the death, only posters who really enjoy arguing are going to post.
>>134478540
I could write about Princess Tutu for days. That's exactly the kind of show that makes people want to think about it.
>>134478714
Eh. It's badass, but that's more or less all you can say about it. Not much of a conversation.
>>134479213
People actually will have to back their arguments instead of just spouting whatever bullshit? Gracious me, how horrible.
>>134479291
>I could write about Princess Tutu for days.
I could talk about Princess Tutu for days as well, much more than of nay season of Precure or any other Mahou Shoujo, so it's maybe not the best example. But I could just as well talk about a day or two about GoPri, which is far than I could talk about HaCha, HC, Futari Wa or MH. Just because you don't like it, it doesn't mean GoPri it's bad for everyone.
/pc/, are you "On the spectrum"?
>>134479787
The real question is who isn't
>>134479663
Maybe you could, but you don't. With other seasons, people both could and did. If you were to find some interesting way to read GoPri, I'd certainly love to participate. The fact of the matter is, no such discussion has ever arisen here this year.
For the record, I find GoPri enjoyable, even though it doesn't ask me for any additional thought once the weekly 22 minutes have passed.
>>134479663
So why don't you?
We know the answer: there isn't anything to be said that hasn't already been said about it.
>>134479912
>For the record, I find GoPri enjoyable, even though it doesn't ask me for any additional thought once the weekly 22 minutes have passed.
I feel like it's already passed alongside whatever interesting ideas it could've had. I hoped that Twilight v Flora would be a rather interesting argument of birthright against determination, or that the Flower Princess story would have some sort of under-theme for the rest of the season, or that the holy trinity of princessdom (tsuyoku - yasashiku - utsukushiku) would have more significance. Any of those would've provided at least something to chew on.
>>134479912
I put a perfectly good leading statement in here >>134477037 which was ignored. Again, what effect will it have if everyone really does split up at the end? Kirara's confirmed for Paris, and I don't expect Towa to stay long either. It would be a great turn if Minami decided to leave after middle school or sooner to study marine biology in a specialized high school, eventually leaving everyone split up. We already saw hints of this in the episode Close mindbroke Haruka, showing that her dreams left her isolated.
>>134480357
I'm not convinced that the show will explore that. It certainly hasn't given enough so far. What ifs are the realm of fanfiction, not close reading; I'm not especially interested in things that aren't in the work.
>>134480357
All that will be as explored as how the Trump Kingdom and Earth becoming connected will be explored. You'll see gimpses in the epilogue, tearful goodbye and that's it. Anything more will be a miracle.
>>134480622
Given that it's been brought up twice for Haruka and Kirara, and that it's obvious Towa will be wherever Onii-sama is, it's not a stretch of the imagination at all.
>>134480895
If it's explored, we can talk about it at that time. There's still nothing to say right now.
>>134481014
I'm not the one desperately fishing for conversation topics (and I'm not saying you are either), but that doesn't mean we can't talk about a theme of dreams and isolation. Put it into contrast with Yes 5; there, everyone was linked in one way or another by their dreams. Nozomi wanted to be a teacher like Coco and also to be with him forever (which includes Milk looking after Coco too). Urara and Komochi were connected by their literary arts, and on at least one occasion spoke about Urara acting a play Komachi writes. Rin and Karen's dreams are unrelated, but their rivalry and friendship show that they wish to remain connected even as they walk there paths. In GoPri, it's all about everyone pursuing their own dreams, and also supporting each other, but not necessarily being together. Yui's really the only one who specifically wants to bring everyone together, and that's just in her storybooks for future generations to read. It's distinct in that it shows you don't need to share absolutely everything with your friends, and it's okay to be individualistic and driven to go off on your own.
>>134479308
but *you're the one instigating arguments.* what's wrong with just liking a show?
AWW SHIT, NEW VILLAINS LEAKED!
SPOILERED FOR SPOOKY!
>>134479912
>>134479976
I actually do, when the situation arise. Some people did it before the last episode, even if not so much after it.
And I say a day or two, not every day of the week, GoPri is always discussed at least once at some moment during the week, trying to force discussion or meta discussion, like right now, leads to nothing.
see this is what I mean by /pc/ being needlessly negative these days. been away for a couple of hours and already people are arguing and shitting on each other for literally no reason. by all means discuss whether a series is bad or good, but there's no point in shitting on people over your taste in children's cartoons and you're ruining the thread if you take it that seriously.
>>134481845
The recent conversation has been one of the most civil in weeks. No one is shitting on anyone's taste.
>>134481845
There is literally no one shitting each other right now. The conversation is as civil as it can ever be. You people bitching about any sort of type of sentence that connects more than 3 words in a meaningful manners are the annoying ones with your endless bitching.
If you wanna see discussions where everyone's arguing and shitting on each other look at the ones from yesterday where every post had a you are meanie poo poo head-tier insult at the end.
>>134481933
>>134481953
>GoPrifags are scared of discussion because they are unable of defending their show
>not shitting on people for liking a show
and I saw the threads yesterday, that's what my *original* comment a few pages back was about.
>>134482016
>A single shitpost from 2 hours ago that sparked the current discussion means that all the conversation had until now is people shitting on each other
>>134479976
>>134481014
>There's still nothing to say right now.
there isn't anything to be said that hasn't already been said about it.
>If it's explored, we can talk about it at that time.
The puzzle to the apparent lack of discussion is resolved, people don't even want to talk about something.
If it already happened, it was already said; if it hasn't happened then, it's going to be discussed in the due time, at the end some of you just like to whine.
>>134481240
I agree with your observation that the GoPri characters are pursuing unique dreams. I don't have much of anything to add; I've been trying, but I don't see anywhere else in the show that connects to or amplifies the idea of individualism. Most of the time, the Cures' common ideals (strength, kindness, beauty) and common short-term goal (Precure) mean that they end up acting in very similar ways despite their diverging dreams, and that significantly dulls the idea. If individualism was embraced in other facets of the show than just the characters' stated dreams, it would come across more strongly.
>>134476925

I just realized this. What do you think the next theme will be? What else do little girls like to pretend they are??

Sluts.
Oops, did not mean to quote that post.
>>134483136

That would be too lewd to air on TV.
A little cat cure or a cute wolf one would just devastating for my heart.
I loved Cure Princess. I never imagined I'd be let down by a series about princess cures, yet here we are.

Holy shit, give me spy Cures immediately.
>>134483136
I would love a Kiruminzoo precure.
>>134483136
Precure doesn't need a theme. It just needs to be fun, simple, and easy to understand. Have some random powers, cute girls, and silly villains. Think outside the box.
>>134483361
>Moms
>>134483136
Wasn't there a poll of the most popular japanese little girls dreams?
I remember being a Precure was in the top ten.
From my surroundings, little girls around me seem to love detectives, doctors and astronauts seem to be liked as well.
>>134483628
You know what number one was?
Idols.
Idol precure is really more a question of 'when' at this point.
>>134483704
>>134483704
>>134483704
>Idol precure
As much as people say this, it would be stupid do it. Who will want to make a franchise less unique by becoming like dying contenders?
Precure is still doing better than idol shows, in rating at least. The best you will get is a mix like in the special attacks like in HaCha.
>>134483136
Tech and science cures.
>>134483136
DINOSAURS
>>134483969
>>134483924
Little girls like those?
Sounds more like little boys stuff, and more difficult to transform into something cute.
