Or this for that matter: But yeah, Toei’s English spellings can’t always be taken as gospel (and not just when it comes to Precure either).

Related to my earlier post, a recent new teaser for Miracle Leap has come out showing a preview image for the main movie at the end, it seems to involve giant sweets and a city that’s either frozen or flooded: https://youtube.com/watch?v=qQjLBX3kVoU Considering it won’t be out until next year it might be cool if it took place post-series as kind of an epilogue chapter.

So in addition to there being a Precure cameo at the end of the most recent VS movie, there was also a Kirameiger version of Star Twinkle’s second ED (including an introduction by KirameiRed and Cure Star): https://youtube.com/watch?v=nF-1lrknyB8 Any idea what the original source for this video was (like was it a commercial, a special, etc)? Off the subject, Healin Good 15: That was a cute episode. The fight was a little contrived, but it was amusing how Nodoka couldn't transform (again) because she was fighting with Rabirin. I also liked Latte chewing out Nodoka and Rabirin for not getting along. Her life was literally at stake there! Larryb fucked around with this message at 01:10 on Jul 12, 2020 |

In other news, as mentioned a while back there were a pair of audio dramas released in the early days of the franchise in which the Futari gang did a crossover with the Dekarangers and the Magirangers respectively. Well, I finally managed to track them down: Futari Wa and Dekaranger: https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm10468296 Max Heart and Magiranger: https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm1030604 Couldn’t tell you what they’re about as I only have a slight knowledge of Japanese and very little information is available online (the Dekaranger one appears to be Christmas related though) but there you go.

So unless I'm reading this wrong, the next Healin' Good Precure episode is going to be a crossover with Ojamajo Doremi? Or there will at least be a cameo appearance? https://twitter.com/Doremi_staff/status/1284323567962734592 Pikestaff fucked around with this message at 11:53 on Jul 18, 2020 |

Doremi ended in like 2004 or thereabouts? But they have a movie coming up so it's probably related to publicity for that. edit: I looked it up - it ended in 2003 but they had some OVAs through 2004 and as far as I know that's the last they've been on screen. I haven't seen it but it's very popular.

Makes sense. I forget, is this the first non Sentai crossover Precure’s ever done (aside from a few real life comedians guest starring in an episode of Fresh and Smile respectively and some mascot character making a cameo in the Happiness Charge movie that is)?

Crunchyroll put up a history of Magical girls video on Youtube and I have somes issues with including the fact it didn't mention Nanoha at all and it's bit on Precure was pretty suspect (Call the three shows after Futari Wa unsuccesful is unfair as Max Heart and Yes did real well, Splash Star and Go Go). Also skipping from Sailor Moon to Card Captor Sakura is a hell of a skip cause Rayearth is an important show for a lot of reasons and even if I don't think Utena is a magical girl show enough do that you do need to mention it

Is Cardcaptor Sakura and its sequel(?) the Clear Card Arc worth watching? I was thinking of checking it out at some point. Also was it based on a manga like Sailor Moon was? If so, which version is better? Larryb fucked around with this message at 00:22 on Jul 19, 2020 |

It is based on a manga, i think the anime is better. The anime leans into a weird agegap side relationship less and has some really good original characters

Sequel. Its about as good as the original but its not finished in manga or anime form, so some of its threads arent resolved and probably wont be anytime soon. Plus its very much written assuming theres been a 20 year gap for the viewer instead of one directly to the other. A lot of its early runtime is just spent reintroducing characters and letting them show off.

It's why I find the Clear Card anime to be worse version of Clear Card as it spends more time on reintroducing characters and flashback to the first series that it doesn't introduce the real plot till the end of the series. It also lack a lot of the visual flair of the first series too

Anyway, Healin Good 16: Cute episode. A lot more chill than most of the season, though it did have Batetemoda rapping. The Doremi cameo was limited to just a poster visible in the corner of one of the scenes. Nothing too big, though we get episodes like this once a season anyhow. Next time is a Chiyu focused episode, about her family's hot springs inn. Larryb fucked around with this message at 01:06 on Jul 19, 2020 |

I love PreCure, have watched Madoka and Sailor Moon. Barring CardCaptor Sakura and Utena (which I'm planning to watch some day) are there any other cool, non-ecchi magical girl series I should check out? I briefly tried Symphogear but it felt weird and leery about its protagonists in a way I did not enjoy, if that's a useful barometer.

Healin Good 17: This week on Hanasakur Iroha, we get our first Chiyu focus episode in a while. Getting a good look at her family and their business was some nice character-building, and we had a fun character of the day in Emily Smith, a girl from overseas who Chiyu helped to cheer up with some fun and games. We were also introduced to Chiyu's little brother. So Nodoka remains an only child, compared to the others. Next week is, of all things, a Nyatoran episode. That was a pretty good Chiyu episode and despite the fact that I personally enjoy him, I like that they finally gave Batetemoda a break for once and let one of the other generals have some focus.

SatoshiMiwa posted:Someone needs to raid YTV offices in Canada to find the Canadian Futari Wa dub You can find it online on a few streaming sites but the version currently uploaded is basically just the English dub track overlayed over the Japanese version. Not sure if the original televised release is still available anywhere though (I know it never got an official home release). It’s better than Glitter Force at the very least and is basically uncut aside from localizing a few character names/references and adding a new OP and ED. I’d love an official release of it though (or at least replacing the original Crunchyroll version with a higher quality upload with better subs).
