They're back to fight the same big bad with the same major attack, except powered up while working towards gathering the pieces they need to get the same resolution. Consequently, all of the emphasis on the two of them is tedious at best.Īside from that, the series just feels pointless.

He's as obnoxious as he was in the last series, except now there's a lot more of him, and she's just boring. There's way too much of a focus on Nozomi and Pollun. Let's start by looking at the big issue with the series as a whole. In that fashion, Honoka, Nagisa & Saki find themselves in a race against time to find all the aspects of the Queen before their antagonistic foursome can bring back the Dark King. This time around they also have help, in the form of Shiny Luminous, Mai. To make matters worse, the two heroines find themselves under attack by a new band of villains, Shampoo Advert, Moustache, Chin & Female. She loses her cohesion, splitting into her life, her heart and her wills which take the form of tiny fairies called Heartiels. Unbeknownst to them, the Queen was critically wounded during their battle. They're living normal lives in the wake of the Dark King's defeat. The actual story takes place with the two of them in their last year of junior high. Thus begins their sweet and sublime love story. It's t this point where Honoka notices some feelings starting to well up, but she's afraid to act on them since Nagisa hasn't shown interest in girls like that. So, do they have something interesting for Honoka & Nagisa to do? Story: After the events of the first series, Honoka and Nagisa have entered High School. Futari wa Precure Max Heart is a direct sequel with the same characters, one of the only series of its like in the franchise. Which makes today's material a little odd. It also had a pretty strong ending that wrapped everything up. Unlike many magical girl works, Precure believes in having their characters kick and punch instead of just tossing out stock animation special attacks. It was a strong start with endearing characters, a lot of good moments and strong, surprisingly physical fight scenes. Overall 5 Story 4 Animation 6 Sound 6 Character 5 Enjoyment 5 Last year one of the magical girl anime I looked at was Futari wa Precure, the first in Toei Animation's long-running Precure franchise.

And Precure 5 is a separate series, and Precure 5 is a sequel of GoGo!

Splash Star stands alone as its own series. Futari wa Pretty Cure and Max Heart is a separate series, and Max Heart is a direct sequel to Pretty Cure. Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future.
