Episode Title: Who's the Center of Idol Precure?!

The episode starts with Idol going back to school after the Summer Holidays. Idol's classmate is super excited that Idol and Zuykiss preformed as a group of five and hopes they'll do it again in the future. Idol snickers a bit and says they will be for sure, since Idol PreCure is a group of 5 now. At lunch, the Cures are discussing how the Idol PreCure Whirlwind is beginning. Zukyun hearing octopus and thinking it means actual food. Idol points out that Zukyun uploaded a video without premission again. Kiss says it was to the official Idol PreCure CureTube channel, but then they both get bad hair. I love this gag. Sadly, I think it'll be the last one for this show. The season is only slated for 48 episodes I believe. So about 18 episodes left? 

Once the other Cures give permission for the video, their hair goes back to normal. KyunKyun says their all in PreCure fanclub cards are in and gives one to each of the Cures. Kiss asks why Idol is always in the middle. Idol hadn't noticed. Wink says that Kiss would rather have Zukyun in the middle. To which Kiss agrees. KyunKyun suggest they have a battle for the center, with lightning in the background. And with the basis of the episode started, we go to the theme song.

Idol asks what the Center is. KyunKyun goes into teacher mode and explains it's the idol that stands in the center of the group. They're the face of the group. They have the biggest influence. Zukyun has trouble getting it, so Kiss explains it with lunch examples. 

At Idol's place, the Cures are discussing how to pick the center. They mention Zukyun which makes Kiss fall from joy. Wink says they're group would be more mature. KyunKyun explains that because Kiss and Zukyun are symmetrical, if either is in the center, it would break the flow and they wouldn't be right beside each other. Kiss says they can never part. 

Idol asks if 2 can be in the center. KyunKyun explains it's possible. But with an odd number they can't make a tidy formation that way. KyunKyun says the most important thing is having a center everyone accepts.

At night while in bed, Idol imagines Wink as the center, and then KyunKyun. The next day, Idol is making a survey to see who everyone picks as who they would like as the center. She says she has to ask Mr. Tanaka and Cutty and Green fairy. Kiss explains they aren't home today. 

We cut to the new Idol Precure Pretty Shop, a store dedicated to the PreCure. Mr. Tanaka introduces his long list of jobs. Idol Precure manager, part timer at glitter, and Precure Pretty store shop manager. Cutty and Green fairy are in their human forms working at the shop. KyunKyun mentions that Green is wearing a Cure Wink pin. He says it's just a coincidence. Dude is still very shy. Cutty explains that the pins are to make it easier for customers to talk to them. 

Idol ask them about her survey. Cutty says Cure Idol. KyunKyun smirks going figures, she's your fav. She then teases that Green's must be Cure Wink cause she's his fav. KyunKyun likes to press Green's buttons. Green denies that Wink is his fav. Kiss points out that he's wearing 3 Cure Wink pins. KyunKyun keeps teasing him and asks what if Wink was center. He states it wouldn't matter. Wink looks brilliant no matter where she stands. Which gives us this shot of Wink with the shojo bubbles. I am concern about either this is fan or beginning of a crush behavior. Please don't become a Molly/Nephrite situation please. Green fairy asks for a change of subject. 

Idol asks Mr. Tanaka to answer her survey and he states he can't because he is their manager. 

Cut to a scene of Kaito Hibiki getting off an elevator and seeing the Idol PreCure group on a tv show with Cure Wink as the center.

In the Idol PreCure waiting room, Idol asks how it was to be the center. Wink says she was nervous and that until they figure out their center, she doesn't mind taking turns. It's KyunKyun's turn next. She's a bit nervous but will try her best. Kaito Hibiki knocks on her door. Idol realizes that Kiss and Zukyun are in fairy form and slams the door behind her and asks what's he doing there in the hallway. Kaito explains he had to record a promotion for a movie he's in. Said movie poster is behind him on the wall. He gives Idol tickets for her and the others to come see it. Kaito says he saw them on tv today and that they were positioned differently. Idol explains that they decided to switch it up since she was always in center and they wanted to decided properly. She asks him who thinks should be in the center. 

Kaito thinks about. He asks who she thinks it should be. It's alright to ask others but nobody can be the center alone. He tells her that if you look at each other, it'll become clear who should be in the center. 

Jogi is watching the PreCure's latest performance on tv as Chokkrine enters. Jogi teases Chokkrine that she can't get anything done without a henchman. He teleports to floating over the city and says so this is where he is. That guy. 

We get a pan up to Kaito's movie poster. Does Jogi have history with Kaito. Or is he talking about someone else? 

The cures are sitting at a table by the theater after seeing the film. Idol is staring at them. Wink asks what's up and she explains what Kaito told her earlier. She says she thinks everyone's the center. They're all so awesome that it'll be sparkly no matter who is in the center. 

A guy at the movie theater got some popcorn and trips while carrying it. Jogi sees the darkness and turns him into the monster of the day. A popcorn bucket.

The Cures being close by arrive and transform. After they transform, Idol goes that they haven't picked a center yet. Jogi remarks that they must have extra time. The monster attacks the theatre and Zukyun mentions that there are still people watching movies in the building. Kiss uses her power to seal off the space so innocent people won't get drawn in. Nice to this power now. The space is full of colorful mushrooms and green hills. 

Jogi mentions that they're just playing idol. Cure Idol goes into a magical girl speech and the other Cures decide with that speech that Cure Idol must be the center. They defeat the monster and things go back to normal.

The guy is sad about his popcorn, but says it'll be okay. One of the lady's working at the theater asks if he's okay as she begins picking up the popcorn and his heart goes kyun. He now has a crush on her. There are shojo bubbles and all. 

We cut to the opening of the Idol Precure Pretty Shop and Kaito sees them from the back and walks away into an ally. Idol approaches him and says he should have said hi. He didn't want to interrupt but he notes that they picked a center. She says they all decided it together. They chose her and she wants to work extra hard now. Kaito Hibiki says she should cherish the friends who accept her. As she walks away, Kaito says wait. He grabs her hand and tells her not to loose her bonds. Idol responds with Okay. And then we go to the ending theme song.

So Kaito I've been tetter tottering on if I like or not. Mostly because are you going to become a love interest or a mentor figure. The shojo bubbles make it hard to tell. But with this, I think he now has ties to Jogi. Given that most of our bad guys have been fairies, does this mean that Kaito Hibiki is a fairy? Did he and Jogi loose their bond? Are we going to have a Parfait/Waffles situation of two buds torn apart due to miscommunication and jealousy. I have so many questions!!

I rank this episode of B. If it were for all the questions I now have, I would probably give it a C. But man, they got me pondering shit now. So a B it gets.

Episode title: Precure! Kirakkiran for you!

We start the episode with Zukyun shaking the egg shaped heart lock wanting her friend back. The Cures are confused as to why the heart lock ate Kiss. Wink mentions that they don't know what Kiss wished for on the heart lock. Which we do NOT! I've been yelling at the screen about what did she wish for since they appeared as Cures. 

We get a shot of Kiss running in the darkness void. Then the theme song. After the theme song we have them at a table with Mr. Tanaka at his house. Zukyun is hugging the Egg heart lock with tears in their eyes. Mr. Tanaka calls the Queen of sparkle land cause if anyone knows what Kiss wished for, it's the queen. Kiss wished for her future with Zukyun. 

The Cures believe the heart lock ate Kiss because her and Zukyun couldn't be together forever. They all think it's sad. Even Cutty and Green fairy show up and are crying. Green fairy is crying on Mr. Tanaka's shoulder. The queen apologizes to Zukyun. Kiss wanted to keep it a secret to keep her from worrying.

The queen then explains why Kiss is a special fairy. When signs of Darkness appear in the world, one who knows darkness is born together with the Heart Kirari Lock. 

This is Cure Kiss/Meroron. Everyone in sparkle land is only born with light. They don't know darkness, a feeling that can erase sparkles. But Kiss was born feeling it with no one else who could and thus felt alone. 

Mr. Tanaka then brings up that it had been awhile since their wishes were granted. So why did the Heart Lock eat Kiss now? The queen explained that before Kiss's dream of the future with Zukyun was still unclear. But recently, last episode, her dream of the future became clear.

Wink realizes that Kiss wants to be friends with all them and that cleared up the future. They beg the queen for a solution to free Kiss, but the queen doesn't know. The Cures become determine to find a way to free. 

At the bad guy lounge, Chokkirine, our bad lady, meets Jogi. He's the new hire. We saw him a few episodes back when he turned green fairy into the monster of the day. He's going out today. 

We cut to a shot of Idol and Zukyun sitting by the heart shaped tree trying to talk to Kiss through the egg heart lock.

Jogi, our new guy on the block, turns the couple from when the Heart Lock was first introduced into the monsters of the day.

The Cures have a meeting were Wink summarizes what happens in the Bond Ribbon book. Idol decides to sing about the Bond Ribbon to Kiss in the Heart Lock egg. This causes one of the cheer wands to light up and Zukyun uses it to magnify whatever friendship energy is happening. A wand appears in the void with Kiss. Just as Kiss is about to reach for it, the monsters of the day attack. The Monsters are a Key and Lock. Very fitting for the theme of this episode. Zukyun is sent to protech the egg heart lock.

Jogi says today we have a special guest before we zoom up onto the lock on the egg. Inside the void Kiss can't hear the song anymore. Darkine appears before Kiss and says to forget about the Cures. 

While Darkine is trying to welcome Kiss to her ranks, the Cures are fighting the monsters. Darkness makes a copy of Kiss that's in less saturated colors to represent her darkness and sweet talk her into joining their side. During this, Kiss says the one she can't stand is herself. Which fairy, I feel you. Also I now like you a ton more than I did before. 

With the power of friendship, the cheer wand, Kiss says each Cure's name connecting them and says that she wants to be friends. Kiss breaks free of the darkness and heart lock. Kiss and Zukyun transform. They each get a ribbon power up item, the Bond Ribbon. All of the Cures preform putting the bond ribbon in a loner wand that they spin like a baton. 

 My hubby pointed out to me that the couple's names, "Jo and Kii" sound like Joke when said next to each other. I do not think this was on purpose, but it is funny and I can not unhear it now. 

Idol calls this new item the Kirakkiran Ribbon Baton. And all the Cures hold it up to the Pink heart shaped tree. 

We have a scene of Kiss and Zukyun leaving Mr. Tanaka's house to move into Idol's place. Not sure why, they don't have to hide as fairies at Mr. Tanaka's house. But I'm sure he's happy to have his home back either way.

This episode was great. I now really resonate with Kiss. I rank this episode an A.

Episode Title: Meroron's Friend

This episode starts with fireworks going off in the heart lock and a close up on Cure Kiss's face. All of the Cures are at a Q&A panel with elementary kids. One kid asks if they are friends. All of the Cures, except Kiss, say that they are. After the Q&A, Kiss gets angry and says that they shouldn't group her and Zukyun with them and runs away with Zukyun as they go into their fairy forms.

Later the trio is sad as they want to be Kiss's friend. Kiss, meanwhile, is angerily stabbing octopus sausages and placing them in a nagging Zukyun's mouth. This bit is funny because she goes from upset to happy with each octopus and back to upset. 

Idol comes up the stairs singing about how she wants to be friends with Kiss. The other cures join in. Kiss flies away saying, "Sissy you don't get it."

We get to Mr. Tanaka in fairy form as they all have a meeting on helping Zukyun understand Kiss's feelings, because Zukyun is just not getting it. Wink wonders if it's really true that Kiss only wants to be friends with Zukyun and no one else. Wink wonders where Kiss went and Zukyun explains that it's probably the library and we see a flashback of Zukyun making a tower out of the books. 

While looking for a book about the Bond Ribbon at the library, Kiss is having trouble finding it. Wink comes and helps her find it. After finding the book, the two sit together reading. Kiss is not quite getting the book, so Wink tells Kiss a story about herself as a little girl. How she wanted to be friends with others but was too shy to say anything to them. How she over came that by an interaction with Idol as a kid.

Also at the library, is our bad lady. She's buying a book on how to keep employees from quitting. She doesn't like how sparkling the librarian is so she turns her into a monster. Our monster is a bookshelf!

Kiss is concerned because she can't transform without Zukyun. Wink says to leave it to her since she's here. Kiss then transforms on her own!! This really surprised me. They begin fighting the monster.

When the other Cures arrive on scene, Zukyun is like, "You transformed on your own. I'll try it too!" And she does. She tells Kiss that she'll always love her and that she won't go anywhere.

Kiss and Zukyun are the finishing song attack. 

Wink checks out the bond ribbon book for Kiss.

As the other Cures are talking, Kiss makes up her resolve become friends with the others. The heart lock then appears and EATS her. She is swallowed by the heart lock and it becomes a big egg statue thingie. The episode ends here. 

This ending threw me for a loop. I wasn't prepared. But also, next episode we should hopefully finally figure out what it was she wished for! 

I rate this episode an A. It's great character development. and the ending threw me for a loop.

 You and Idol PreCure Ep28 Review

This episode the Cures are going to visit Idol's grandpa's house with her family. I knew from the last episode that this one was going to make me cry. And I was right. The doggo has voice lines that I thought for most of the episode was the grandpa talking for the dog. It was funny when I finally realized I was wrong.

I love that they left an offering by Grandma's picture. I was debating with my partner if the grandma was dead or sickly. 

the cures go about having a good time at grandpa's. Walking by a stream, eating fruit, and making rainbow's with sprinklers. The doggo enjoys playing with Grandma's old slipper.

Grandpa asks Idol if there is anything she wants from her grandma's room as he wants to clean the room while he is still healthy enough too. This makes Idol sad so she runs away to be alone. The doggo following her. We get some flashbacks of Grandma, doggo, and Idol together. Idol can't remember everything about her grandma and she's worried if she cleans her room that there will be other things she'll forget.

The other Cures and Idol's family are having a meeting about maybe it was too soon to bring it up to Idol. Doggo enters with a photo of Grandma, doggo, and Idol by some trees. Grandpa remembers the time capsule that they buried. The Cures and doggo go to the look for it while Mr. Tanaka stays to help the adults with something at the house. We get an adorable shot of Zukyun digging like a doggo to help find the time capsule.  

They unearth the time capsule as the bad lady shows up and turns the doggo into the monster of the week. This one being a slipper. 

Idol wakes up and sees the evil looking sky and goes to help the other Cures. During the fight, Idol finds the time capsule and she finds a spoon with a red ribbon on it. Like the ones she made for Zukyun and Kiss. Wink and KyunKyun tell her they heard about it and wanted to get it for her. We have a flashback of when Idol tied the bow on it and sang for her grandma. Idol gave it to Grandma. 

And it was at this moment, I was in tears. 

Idol is our performer this episode. 

Our bad lady mutters about it must be friends to always being with their friends. A possible beginning of her redemption arc? 

At home, Grandpa explains that Grandma knew she wasn't long for this world. So she made the time capsule and put things that were important that she thought Idol might need it one day. 

We then have the family's 58th karaoke contest. Idol gets to sing first. She sings the song she sang for her grandma with the spoon she made for her.

Grandpa is glad he sent the doggo to live with Idol. We get a flashback to after Grandma had passed with Idol crying and how the doggo didn't leave her side. We also know with that scene that Idol's little sister was a baby at the time. And the death I believe was 6 years before. So this makes the little sister around 6 years old.

We have scene were the doggo thinks that Idol can understand him only to realize she can't. A funny moment considering last season was Wonderful. 

This episode was great. Got me in the feels. I rank it an A. 

You and Idol PreCure ep27 review

 We start the episode seeing Cuttin and Zakkurin helping the Cures with the fanclub and get a flashback on how they joined the bad guys. Cutting explains they've been thinking that fan activities are a good way to help get people out of pitch darkness. He asks the Cures to upload more videos to CureTube, this world's version of YouTube. I love that they just call it CureTube. Are the other Pretty Cure on this website too?

The Cures agree to make an official channel and begin uploading an intro video.

The episode mainly follows them as they record videos to upload. A cooking video of Zukyunn, who really just wants to eat Octopus sausages. Cure Wink in a flower field over doing the lights. A several hours long video of Kiss saying all the reasons she loves Zukyun as the others fall asleep behind her. It's hilarious. 

At school, Idol's classmates ask how she got into all the PreCure's video in the background. A boy in her class fell in love with her after seeing her in the CureTube videos. After school, Idol finds a love letter from her in her shoe locker on top of her shoes. I actually really like this trope in Japanese shoes. It's adorable and a nice way to leave an anonymous note. Please only leave nice ones though. Like, "You were really cool in class today," or, "I really like how you style your hair." Let's use our powers to leave nice messages and not mean ones okay.

Idol isn't sure how to respond to the letter, while the others are like it's so cool.

They go to record KyunKyun's video and it's a call and response practice video. Mr. Tanaka has to remind them that the fairies and the others need to be careful about being caught in the frame. 

Our bad lady turns the guy who wrote Idol a love letter into our bad guy for the day. He is a love letter with a pompadour. 

The cures fight the monster and we have the Trio doing the final performance this episode. Later Idol is late to Mr. Tanaka's place. She's panicking over getting a 2nd letter from the guy. The other cures are excited. The letter explains that he fell in love with Cure Idol. The other cure's attempt to comfort her for being 'dumped'. Idol isn't sad about it at all. 

We have them breaking the 4th wall as they go, "We'll make viewers like you feel Kirakilala!" which I just call sparkling. 

This episode is a skippable episode. A filler you could call it. But it's adorable and precious. These are the kinds of episodes I enjoy. I rank this episode a B.

Kyun Makes Perfect

The episode starts with KyunKyun seeing kids singing and dancing at a playground. An idea strikes her and she rushes off. The other cures are at Idol's family cafe and Kyun bursts in saying they should create a fanclub.

Kyun gives the other cures a Fanclub 101 course. Very cute animation here. Kiss asks what kyun kyun means and Kyun explains it. Kiss gets it and wants to make a fanclub just for Zukyun. 

While discussing what kind of fanclub to make, they go over how to make it special and make everyone happy. They suggest what can of merch to make. They decide to make picture cards of the Cures with stickers and member numbers.

They take a photoshoot for the cards. Kiss refusing to do an all five photo. They also finally go through the questions in the fanmail. Idol is not good with idioms. Kyun's is "The stronger the love, the better you'll get." We get a flashback of her practicing to dance as a little kid in the living room with her dad watching her. We see her fall a few times before doing it and her dad patting her head saying the saying.

At night, Kyun's mom walks past her room after a bath and tells her that even if it's summer break she shouldn't stay up too late. Kyun tells her that she's helping set up the official Cure fan club and that she'll go to bed once she's done with the products she's working on. 

The next day, the site is done and the cures write messages on cards to send to fans. On the day the registration for the fanclub goes live we see the Cure's classmates, Cutty, and the lanky luigi guy who was redeemed last episode. 

The main bad lady from before has to go town now. She's annoyed by how sparkling everything is because of the fanclub and transforms one of the lady's at a shop into a monster. The monster is an outside store sign board. When one of fairies call her by name, she says' that it's Mistress for them. 

During the fight, KyunKyun goes ham on the monster and the other cures cheer for her. Even Kiss, who normally only cheers for Zukyun. So we get treated to a solo KyunKyun performance.

Back at Mr. Tanaka's house they check on the fanclub application numbers. It bounces from 1 thousand to 2 and ends at 10 thousand with Tanaka having to hand make the membership cards. The Cures check the registered members and see the first 2 are from Kirialand and their names are Cutty and Lanky Luigi dude. The 2 dudes they just reformed and Mr. Tanaka only goes, "I feel like I've heard those names before."

Cutty and Zakkuri (Lanky luigi dude as I have dubbed him) knock on the house as it is now the official PreCure fanclub organization building.  

THEY'RE FAIRIES!!!!????

I wasn't prepared for them. Mr. Tanaka goes into his fairy form and says he never noticed. But he also acts like he recognizes them. That's not explored though as they're there to get their membership cards and packages for joining. 

 We end the episode with Kyun talking with her mom about how it's her talent to pour her heart into the things she loves. 

The episode threw surprises at me that I wasn't prepared for. I also really enjoyed it. I'm ranking this episode B.

You and Idol Precure Ep24 Review

 This episode is about Mr Tanaka's day off. So he, of course, is the narrator. He wakes up and stretches and enjoys his morning coffee. He also mentions how that because ZuKyun and Kiss live in his place now, they've changed the decor of his home a lot. He is still unhappy about it.

ZuKyun tells Tanaka that she is going to Idol's house for breakfast. Kiss wakes up shortly after and is like, "Where's sissy?" Tanaka has a bad feeling about telling Kiss, but tells her anyway. Kiss is mad at Idol. She says she is the moon and Zukyun is the sun. She rushes off to Idol's house. Tanaka gives chase after Kiss telling her to slow down so she doesn't get hurt. 

We learn from Tanaka's narration that this episode takes place during the summer holidays.

At Idol's house, Zukyun and Idol are having breakfast. Kiss flies into Idol's head before she can remove a piece of rice from Zukyun's cheek. Kiss says she'll remove the rice for Zukyun. Mr. Tanaka enters slightly out of breath. Idol's family dog wants to play with Mr. Tanaka. Mr. Tanaka is afraid of dogs due to a past incident. Kind of nice to learn more about him. It seems based off the image flashback that dogs actually really love him naturally. Mr. Tanaka knows it's not Idol's dog's fault, so he plays tug of war with the dog. Idol's dog lets go of the rope when Wink and KyunKyun enter. Causing Mr. Tanaka to fall backwards. 

The girls mention it is the first day of Summer vacation and are trying to make plans on what to do with their holiday. They ask Mr Tanaka if he has summer holidays. He says no. He hasn't had one since arriving in the town about 10 years ago. I like how this fact shocks the girls. They're young teens who probably never realized that adults don't get summer holidays or even thought about it. 

Zukyun asks if he would like a holiday. He says sometimes wishes he could relax. He could soak in a hot spring or go fishing in a mountain stream.

The girls decide to do all his work for him for the day so he can take a break. Mr. Tanaka then tries to go do other work he hasn't gotten to and the girls are like, "No. We'll do that for you." 

They wind up looking at boxes of fan mail that Mr. Tanaka hasn't been able to sort yet. Mr. Tanaka begins sorting the letters and Zukyun lectures him and her face is adorable as she does so. All the girls glare/pout at him so that Mr. Tanaka will actually take a holiday.

At the villain bar lounge, we have lanky and the lady in magenta. Lanky is leaned over on the bar, super tired. Magenta lady asks if he wants a summer holiday. He can have all the summer holidays once he plunges the world into darkness. I also don't think I've seen her make a monster at all since arriving. Lanky whines that he needs a break and watches some of Cure Wink's concert on his phone before going, "Why am I watching this?" Even though he was smiling as he was watching it. He goes to the town but can't find any sparkling people and is exhausted. 

Wink notices him while on patrol and walks up to him believing he's a person in need. They pause as they go, "It's you!" He even recognizes her out of transformation. He's upset she doesn't remember his name. But tells her to leave him be since they're enemies. Wink puts her sun hat on him and says she can't leave him alone while he's unwell. Is this the beginning of his redemption arc? 

Also his name is Zakkuri. I also forget his name often. So I just call him Lanky or Luigi or Waluigi. \

We cut to a shot of them on a bench in the shade. Wink has given him water and Lanky questions if it's okay  for her to do so. Wink explains that everyone needs a break sometime. You've got to get relief sometimes. He offers him a handkerchief with her cure shapes on it. Wink says it's not good for him to be out in such warm clothes during the summer and he retorts that his belly is showing. Wink looks at him sternly and says that he should stop acting strong and stop stealing people's sparkle energy. He shots back that it's his job. He takes off her hat and stomps away, still holding the handkerchief. He also notices an odd feeling in his chest. He's beginning to start that redemption arc, I can feel it. 

We have KyunKyun, Zukyun, and Kiss sorting the letters. Zukyun getting overwhelmed with figuring out which pile of letters is for who. Idol over fills a coffee cup as she worries about them.

Mr. Tanaka is soaking in a hot spring. He can't help but be worried about the Cures. He calls Idol to check in and she tells him that everything is going great. She doesn't want him to worry since he just got a break. Mr. Tanaka knows he should be happy they're fine without him there. He leaves the public bath and transforms into his fairy form and flies off saying there are things he must do. 

Lanky transforms an old man who is leaving the same public bath Mr. Tanaka left earlier into our monster of the week. This monster is based off a massage chair. 

During the fight, Lanky wonders why when he sees Cure Wink that his chest feels funny. At the end of the fight, he says they only won because he was having an off day. The whole time, wiping his sweat away with Wink's handkerchief.  He falls from the sky due to exhaustion. Cure Wink catches him and he questions why she's holding him like a princess. 

Wink puts him down and says she hopes he feels better soon. Lanky retorts that she should be so nice to him. He flinches when he sees her expression turn sad. Cure Idol asks how he can be so mean since Cure Wink is worried about him. He teleports away in purple smoke.

I know we have a long way to go on the redemption arc for this man. He is not sure how to express or even look at his emotions in a healthy manner. We see him kicking a pebble down a walk path in front of a sunset and the ocean. He yells into the sea, "I'm such a fool."

The Cures return to Cure Idol's place to find Mr. Tanaka cleaning dishes. He also has written up plans for the future of Idol Precures and ZukyunKiss groups.

Idol says he was supposed to rest today. 

Mr. Tanaka says that thanks to that he was able to find what he needed to do and how he feels. He feels that he wants to support all the PreCures. The girls say he's amazing and they they actually haven't finished many of the tasks that he normally does. This actually makes Mr. Tanaka happy as it shows there are some things only he can do. The girls are confused but Mr. Tanaka is laughing. I don't think I've seen him laugh yet in this series. He's normally very monotone. 

I enjoyed this episode a bunch. I like that we learn more about Mr. Tanaka and we've begun what I'm sure is the redemption arc for Lanky. I give this episode a B rank. 

uterus supplement check in

I've been taking a chewable supplement that helps balance uterus hormones. I've only been taking it for a few days so far. I started my period yesterday and so far my blood has been more liquidy mucus with a few bits of thicker muscles like specs like pulp in orange juice. 

I've also been sick. Congestion with green mucus. Body aches. Diarrhea. All of this before I started taking the supplement. 

So far, I haven't had any painful period cramps yet. Not sure if that's the supplement or if my body just wants to give me a small break from period cramps since I'm sick. So yay. 

You and Idol PreCure Ep22 Review

 I like that the episode starts with all five of the idols welcoming you into the show before we get a brief recap. Also we're almost at the half way mark of the series as the show is slated for 48 to 50 episodes I believe. 

We see the girls studying as white fairy eats donuts. Blue is concerned that Mero called them rivals. Pink says they can just become friends and that'll solve it. Mero shows up asking white fairy why she's always finding her with the others. White fairy says it's because the girls are there and that there's always yummy food.

Mr. Tanaka comes up as says a new job from Pretty Holic has come in for the girls. It's a rival showdown between the three cures and ZukyunKiss. 

After the opening we have the whole cast enter the pretty holic store. I like that purple hasn't met the store manager yet and is slightly confused that the others know her. Her formal way of introducing herself is so cute. I also find it precious that Mero is in the bag with White fairy. Pink says Mero is their new Mascots. 

The store manager explains the campaign to them and shows them the new products to represent ZukyunKiss. Later at Pink's house in their sitting area they discuss if they will agree with the campaign. The girls think it will be fun. Puri (White Fairy) cheers for Cure Idol as Mero wants to prove her and Puri are better. Mr. Tanaka will let the Pretty Holic company know that they agree it. 

At the event, they see that people can write messages to the Idols on a board. Pink and Blue get approached by fans wanting to know which idol is their fav. Purple grabs them so they can retreat. The three return home and tell them how the event is going. 

Mero says of course ZukyunKiss will win. They're bettere than Idol PreCure. This ignites of fire in Purple and the two argue about who is better. Purple being a huge fan of Blue and Pink's cure forms. Puri watches confused and slightly amused while Pink and Blue are a tad nervous. Puri says she'll just Idol PreCure which greatly upsets Mero.

Mero wonders how she can get Puri to pay attention to her and realizes she can do it through the stomach. She challenges them to a cooking battle that Puri will judge. Blue is confused by the cooking battle but Purple and Pink are reared up and ready to go. They have one week to prepare.

The trio has a meeting to decide what to make. Puri really loves octopus sausages. Which is part of why I nicknamed her Glizzy Globber with my Hubby. Blue says they should add other dishes and make a special menu.

Cut to Mero amongst several cook books stirring a giant metal pot. Mr. Tanaka comes over holding a napkin over his mouth. Mero offers him a taste and he says he'll pass. 

Cut to the Trio. They've made a spaghetti that they'll top with an omelette and draw a picture on. Pink attempts to draw Puri and Mero on it, but it's not that great. 

Cut to Mero. Mr. Tanaka now has a full face mask on going you can ask for help and any time. You can also back out. Mero is still cooking in the big silver pot and has a basket of watermelon and fish next to her. 

Cut to the Trio. Purple shows the girls her fav dish which is Rice balls. She really likes the ones made by her grandma. I'm getting flash backs to Delicious Party PreCure with this one. They ask what Blue's fav dish is and she pulls out a banana. Blue, my sweet girl, a banana is a snack. Not a meal or a dish. But I love you anyway you quirky child. Also her real name is Nana. So I'm not sure if the banana is a joke or not.

Cut to Mero again. She's adding spices to this giant pot and Mr. Tanaka now has a gas mask on.

These back and forth scenes are great. It's a great juxtaposition between the two. 

After the eyecatch we see the Trio with their dish under a cloche. It's finally the day of the cooking battle. The fairies leave Mr. Tanaka's house with him to Pink's house.

Our lanky bad dude sees a woman who is happy that the eggs were on sale so she could buy a lot and he decides to make her the monster of the day. Boo! Dude do you have any idea how expensive eggs are right now? We got bird flu and all this and that driving up the prices. and you got the audacity to be made at this woman for being sparkly and happy from getting a good deal and being able to buy lots. You're a jerk. Monster is an egg with a crack hole in the center, the yellow pompadour, green glasses, and the gloves and boots. 

Puri feels a shudder and Mero instructs Mr. Tanaka to take care of her stuff. The two transform. I'm curious when we'll get to see their base human forms in the show. But we've got plenty of time for that. 

The monster spits grey and black eggs as an attack. 

Kiss uses Kiss Shock and Zukyun gives it a good kick afterwards. The egg monster sheds it's grey shell for a black one with no opening and begins bouncing to crush stuff. Their attacks bounce off it. We then see the trio transform. The group struggle to damage the monster. Cure Idol notices the hole it briefly got stuck in earlier and begins trying to lure it into it. Cure Wink and Cure Kyun Kyun realize and help. Once the monster is in the hole, Zukyun and Kiss do the song defeat attack. The ribbon is a mint green. 

We cut to the cooking battle with everyone. Mero unveils her pot and it's a full spread of different delicious looking food. Burgers, a big prawn of some sort in a soup, melon slices with something pink like a meat in the center, crab sausages, a fondue fountain with strawberries and other stuff, a plate with just meat and lettuce.  Mr. Tanaka is shocked, "How did this come out of that pot?" Dude has been suffering what the scent of that pot for days. Puri says it's delicious and that the others should try some. They take a bit and Blue does some silly bit of how it taste good. Mero says Blue has taste.

It's the trio's turn to present their dish. It's the spaghetti with an omeltte on top, three rice balls with the seaweed cut into cute shapes. A heart, a music note, and a bow. A banana and 2 octopus sausages. 

Puri tells Mero to try one as she hands her one the of the Octopus Sausages. Puri says it's delicious as she pulls out two cheering wands. Mero does another this food is great poems like Blue. Blue is impressed by it but Pink and Purple don't get it. 

Mero is making a dreaming look as Puri asks if she likes it. Mero goes, "It's not bad." Our poor little tsundere. Just admit you like it. 

After the food is finished by everyone, Mr. Tanaka asks Puri to pick a winner. Puri says it was all yummy so everyone wins. So it's a tie. 

Mero is sad that her cooking didn't win. She wonders if Puri likes the Idol Precure more after all. At a photoshoot as the cures, all of them are called in but Kiss stays sitting at the table sad. Zukyun comes to get her and says it's time for them to do their job. This makes her so happy.

As the group is walking back in their real forms, Pink asks why they get so mature when they transform. They respond they don't know. Blue and Purple tease Mero a bit. 

We get a shot of Kaito Hibiki watching fans gather around the posters of the cures. I feel like we haven't seen him in a bit. So I wonder what he'll be doing next episode. We get a new ending theme with all five of the cures! Yay~! New ending song!

I knew from the preview last week that this would be an idol show down, but seeing it turn into a cooking battle was cute. I still wanna know what Mero gave away for her wish. and what her wish was. This episode was fun and enjoyable. A great display of the characters themselves. I give it an A rank. 

You and Idol Precure Ep21 review

 You and Idol Precure Ep21 review

The episode starts with Cure Idol having a cold. Cure Wink and Cure Kyun Kyun try to cheer her up with cake, but she's still sad. After they leave, Cure Idol begins sobbing so loud about White fairy that her mom overhears in the hallway. Truly heart breaking. 

Meanwhile, White fairy is like what did I forget. I want to remember. 

Cure Wink and Kyun Kyun visit the fairies' house to ask Pink fairy what it would take for white fairy to remember and she's like it won't happen without a miracle. After they leave, pink fairy doesn't like her sisssy being sad. So she says she'll help her remember. 

I question this as it's obvious to me that she doesn't want white fairy to remember.

The next day, Cure Idol is still sad at breakfast but her fever has gone down. She pours a bunch of milk on the table while lost in thought. Her dad says that making mistakes is a kid's job. So make as many as a child so you don't make them as an adult. He jokes that so long as she doesn't make the same mistake starting now, she'll be fine. This feels Cure Idol with hope and a great idea. Her sudden pick me up in mood confuses him but the mom gets it. Mom even thanks the dad as the dad is still confused.

Pink fairy has gathered a bunch of the fortune telling gummies for her and white fairy to open. She explains they might pull the miracle fortune gummy and that'll help white fairy regain her memories. As white fairy opens the first one, Cure Idol bangs on the door and barges in. She states they can make new memories starting now. As the two are talking, are lanky bad guy shows up and turns white fairy into the monster of the day.

I like that lanky bad dude doesn't want to go to work. But I'm so upset that he turned the white fairy into the monster of the week. He deserved that hot sauce laced drink earlier in the episode. Monster of the week is based off of the cheering heart light. 

Tanaka, the manager, wakes up from the racket and sees the monster and heads out to get Cure Wink and Cure Kyun Kyun. Tanaka's pjs in human form are very cute. 

Monster can shoot beams that trap things in crystal. Trapping pink fairy and Cure Idol's transformation item. 

Cure Idol, however, will not give up. She is the lead magical girl in this season and the lead is no QUITER! It's been written within the code or bylaws of the Magical Girl genre or something. After all, if they quit, the show won't go on. She begins singing in an attempt to reach white fairy and by the power of love, magic, and friendship, and Deus ex Machina or whatever, it works. 

White Fairy flies out of the monster and hugs Cure Idol. The transformation item and pink fairy are now free from their crystal prisms, however, Monster of the week is still here and now out of control.

The three cures transform. However, instead of weakening with punches, Zukyun and Kiss go straight to the stage performance attack. Monster defeated. Zukyun now has her light back. 

Lanky bad guys is upset but is scared away by Cure Kyun Kyun's laser. 

White fairy says she remembered Cure Idol. Shocking the others.  Cure Idol begins sobbing from joy. 

Pink fairy is standing back going, "A Miracle happened. But it should have been me who recused Sissy." Pink fairy, I'm not liking you right now. You know, loving someone means supporting their choices right? Not trying to be the only one in their world. Also, WHAT DID YOU GIVE UP?! She has her memories. She's still obsessed with white fairy. So what did she have to give up to become a PreCure? The queen said we found find out in due time. Pink fairy told white fairy it was a secret. She's supposed to give up her most precious thing. So what is that? 

As the trio and white fairy are going let's be precure together. The five of us. See they included Pink fairy in the count. Pink fairy is like, "NO! Don't make decisions without me." Which is a fair point. But it was posed as a question. Pink Fairy proclaims her and white fairy and duo and the Trio's rival. And then End Credits.

I like the episode. It got me yelling and crying at the screen. I'd give it an A Rank. 

Should I be concerned?” Charmy whispered

5/22/2025

“Should I be concerned?” Charmy whispered to Cream.

Brown eyes glanced at him before watching the two tailed fox like a hawk. She gave a quick shrug. “We should get snacks though.”

Charmy frowned at her before sitting slightly behind her. The fox was not someone who's bad side he wanted to be on. Especially with however many of those cocktails he had consumed. 

Ray sat next to the fox. His fingers tapping on the table. The yellow squirrel had stuck to water and was learning card games. 

“From a gambling monster.” Charmy noted to himself as he watched the grin spread on Tails’ face as he wrung every player dry at the table. 

“Do you want another mead?” Cream offered. 

Charmy shook his head. “Nah,” he wanted to be sober for this one. He preferred sobriety whenever he noticed Tails being a sneaky little gremlin. No one could say he made it up or mis-

Sonic frowned when he woke up.

6/3/2025

Sonic frowned when he woke up. It felt like a boulder was crushing his ribs. It didn't matter that it was a soft fluffy toddler. He preferred not struggling to breathe. He wanted to just sit up, but a toddler rolling off your chest led to the most hurt shocked face the blue hedgehog had ever seen. He shifted to grab the child with his hands only to find one arm pinned down. 

He turned and found a new snuggle buddy. Manic, with his green spikey quills everywhere. 

“Why me?” Sonic grumbled as he shimmied his arm and elbowed his twin a few times. 

Manic groaned 

Team Chaotix week day 2 prompt Teamwork

 Team Chaotix week day 2 prompt Teamwork

Due May 2nd

Ages:

Charmy 1-2

Espio: 11

Vector: 15

Espio frowned as he stared at the toddler. He did not like kids. The small bee looked up and smiled at the chameleon. Espio instinctively took a step away from the bee. 

“Vector!” He called upstairs. “It wants something.”

Vector’s sigh filled the house. All the croc asked was for the 11 year old to watch the bee while he took a shower. His body was still soapy as he attempted to remove the dirt and grim from his body from several days of work and single parenthood he was now experiencing. 

The bee was barely old enough to sit up. Vector and Espio had found the baby in an abandoned building during a job to find a missing pet Chao for a little old lady. 

Vector rinsed himself off quickly before leaving the room. He didn't have the luxury to dry himself off. He got that an 11 year old would dislike kids. Most did.

“What does the tike want?” Vector asked as he came into the room. Espio was on the ceiling glaring down at the child, who in fact, wanted nothing. The baby was just in awe watching the chameleon. “Pfft. Any good things in the ceiling?”

“It's baby free.” Espio grumbled. 

Vector nodded as he picked the baby up from the bouncing seat. “It's frankly an honored to be liked by a baby. Normally they see strangers and cry.”

The bee wiggled in joy at the crocodile. 

“This one is defective.” Espio shifted on the ceiling.

Vector shot him a glare. He was not putting the bee back where they found him. “Did anyone come by looking for him?” They had been going around asking anyone and everyone if they had lost a kid. Vector didn’t have money to make posters. He sent letters to every orphanage he could think of. Cost him a bunch in postage, but it would be worth it if they found the kid's folks. 

Espio shook his head. 

The crocodile nodded as he bounced the baby in his arms. “It's ok. Someone will come looking for ya. You're cute after all.”

“I think you need to get your eyes checked.” Espio muttered as he watched Vector go into the kitchen.

The crocodile rummaged through the fridge and cabinets. He needed to feed the baby something. He was sure babies his size needed to eat constantly. Unfortunately, the kitchen had very little to offer. 

Espio watched from the ceiling. It clicked to him what Vector was doing. He jumped down from the ceiling in the living room and walked out the door. 

“Be careful out there!” Vector called when he heard the squeal of the front door. 

“Kay,” Espio called back.

Vector knew asking the preteen where he was going or doing always ended with the classic teen tude of, “Ugh. Leave me alone.” A simple ‘be safe’ was the best. Plus the croc had his hands full with a tiny bee. 

He praised Gaia when he found a random a packet of oatmeal in the junk drawer of the kitchen. Located next to the loose batteries and keys he had no clue what they were for anymore. 

He poured water from the tap into a pot and put it onto the stove. He flicked on the burner and waited as he bounced the kid and sang the softest lullaby he could think of. Once he was out of those, he switched to jazz and r&b songs. 

The click of the lock and squeal of the door told Vector a possible customer was in the lobby. When Espio went for walks, the chameleon took hours. 

He leaned out of the kitchen doorway to greet the guest, only to pause as his eyes met the preteen. “You're back early.” He stared. 

Espio nodded as he walked into the kitchen past the crocodile. He slide the duffle bag off his shoulder and onto the kitchen table. There was a loud Ziiirrrp! as he unzipped the bag. 

“Where'd you get the bag from?” Vector asked. It was a nice bag. 

“Ignorance is bliss.” Espio responded as he pulled out items. Powdered milk, a jar of honey, and a bunch of bananas. 

Vector knew that sentence. Thievery. His shoulders slumped. How was he going to explain to this sticky finger chameleon that stealing was wrong?

“What's with the stove?” Espio pointed at the boiling water on the stove. 

“Oatmeal for the kid.” Vector stated as he rushed to make sure it didn't boil over.

“The kid lacks teeth.” Espio pointed out. He scooped powdered milk into a baby bottle from the duffle bag. Espio yoinked the boiling pot off the stove and poured its content into the bottle and began shaking it. 

“Careful Es!” Vector yelled, causing the baby to fuss in his arms. 

“I am more skilled.” Espio rolled his eyes. “I'll cook. You feed…” he gestured at the bee. 

Vector sighed. Teamwork did make the dream work. 

Vector grinned when the baby bee opened his mouth and he was able to spot a tooth barely out of the gums.

Team Chaotix Week Day1 Prompt: NOIR

 Team Chaotix Week Day 1 prompt: Noir

Age Chart so I, the writer, can keep ‘em straight

Vector: 30

Vanilla: 40

Charmy/Cream: 16

Tails/Ray: 18

Espio/Knuckles: 26

Mighty/Sonic/Shadow: 25

Silver: 24

Vector watched from over his news paper as Charmy and Ray took turns running into the house to grab random things and dash out again. He was curious, but was told that they were having a Tea Party in the backyard and Vector was NOT invited. Vector, however, was curious what the group was doing out there. Afterall, they normally had tea parties at Vanilla’s house. He would peak through the window, but Silver and Charmy had gotten so great at gardening, it was a mini forest back there. Vector was sure Charmy knew every spot to sit in to hide himself from the crocodile’s sight.

Espio and Silver certainly did when they sneak kisses back there. 

Vector took in a breath and exhaled to calm his nerves. They were good kids. They wouldn’t start a fire or anything back there.

“I’ve got the pocket watch!” Charmy beamed as he flew up to the tea party table were everyone was sat. 

“I found a clip on tie and a small notebook.” Ray showed his items. 

“Those are prefect!” Cream bounced in her seat. “What do you think?” She turned to the baby who sat in a high chair. The green rabbit’s eyes sparkled at the sight of the watch. They attempted to reach for it, nearly falling forward. 

Tails helped steady them with a soft laugh. “Someone is happy.”

“Of course!” Charmy stood proudly. “She’s the boss for today.” Charmy hugged the child before fixing her brown detective hat. It was way too big since it was Vector’s but no one else had a fedora in the house. 

“Is this safe for her to wear?” Ray handed the clip on tie to Tails. The fox examined the clip carefully as he turned the tie in his hand in thought.

Tails pulled out a tool and fiddled with it a bit. “It's more safe now.” He handed the tie to Cream. 

Cream cooed at her little sister. “Wanna wear a tie?”

The child nodded as she clapped her hands. Cream carefully put the tie on the child, who sat up straighter to show it off proudly. 

“Now that's a sharp looking boss.” Charmy complimented as he made sure the baby didn't fall over. 

“So what's your order boss?” Ray asked as he sat down. 

The child thought for a moment before pointing at a plate that held cookies on it. She babbled as she looked up at the teens. The plate had been empty of treats for a while. 

“Alright! The boss wants cookies.” Charmy beamed as he picked up the baby. 

“Mission: get the boss more cookies is a go.” Ray cheered. 

Tails picked up the empty plate as Charmy lead the group carrying the baby in his arms.

Espio stifled a laugh as the group entered the agency. The baby dressed like a noir detective or mob boss. Charmy holding her. The bee always demanded to be the one to hold her. The ninja wondered what Charmy would do when the girl asked to be held and carried about once she was bigger than him. Cream was right behind them. Tails holding an empty plate and Ray not far behind them. 

“What do we have here?” Vector mused as he looked up from his paperwork. 

“The boss wants cookies.” Charmy proclaimed as he held up the baby. 

Vector smiled as he stood up. “The boss is too small for solid foods.”

“But she wants cookies.” Tails insisted.

“How can we let our boss down?” Ray added. 

“Hmm…” Vector pretended to think as he took his daughter from Charmy. “That's a good point.” He adjusted the hat better on her head as she giggled. “Warm milk with honey is a good substitute.” The child snuggled into Vector’s arm as he sat down in his chair. “Now, order your employees for milk, kiddo.” 

“We’re more like lackeys.” Tails remarked with a shrug.

“Employees is a nicer way of saying it.” Cream smiled. “Too the kitchen!”

“Too the kitchen!” Charmy echoed as he followed her to the kitchen of the agency. The other teens following close behind. 

Vector smiled as he turned back to find his daughter trying to eat the paper on his desk. “No, I need those.” He began trying to to keep his daughter from eating the bills and sheets with budget math on them.

KRISSIE: 4-14-2025 I had a great time with this prompt. I also got to show off my fankid for Vector. I’m still bouncing back and forth with her name though. I’ve got Mint or Matcha. Just struggling to feel which is better. Prompts from this tumblr post! Not sure if I’ll make it for each day on the days they’re due, but I’ll try.

Cramps hurt a lot today. I'm feeling cranky and the computer system is being wonky. 

My blood is like weird small blobs and strings of sticky dark reddish brown greasey glue. 

Tiny Tails 10-23-2024

 October 29th 2024 tiny tails

Shadow frowned as he stared at the small scrawny child hiding behind boxes. Their fur was raised like a frightened cat's. He turned his gaze to Sonic, who for once in his life, looked helpless and sad. Sad Sonic was not on his bingo card for the year. He turned to look at the agent holding their arm. They're blubbering about being bitten was annoying. How sharp could the child’s teeth be?

“What happened?” Shadow questioned Sonic. 

“Tails was going through Eggman's tech that gun had and something went off. There was a big light and sound and then Tails was…” Sonic waved his hand in the child's direction.

Shadow nodded. “Tails, can you come out from there?” He asked the fox in a softer voice only to be stared at. He turned to the blue hedgehog. “What's up with your brother?”

Sonic sighed as he shifted. “I named him when he was 4. And this Tails is younger than that. So maybe he doesn't recognize it as his name yet.”

Shadow arched a brow. “It took you four years to name him?”

“I didn't meet him till he was four!” Sonic threw his hands in the air. 

Shadow paused. His mind whirling. “Did you kidnap him?”

“No! They were the ones beating him and starving him. He was living in the woods.” Sonic growled. “So I brought him with me. I feed him. I clean him. I'm a good picket fence.”

“Picket fence?” Shadow arched a brow. 

“Tails said I was his picket fence when he was four and half. It's a brother thing.” Sonic waved his hand. “Point is, I don't know what to do.”

Shadow nodded as he walked over to the small fox. He was greeted with a hiss as Tails crawled into a corner. Guess he hasn't learn to not pin himself without a clear exit yet. The fox was small, malnourished, and had many visible injuries.  Shadow swooped him up with a quick movement. 

“He doesn't like being held.” Sonic warned. 

“I can tell.” Shadow stared down at the fox gnawing on his arm. Tails’ teeth were sharper than the ebony hedgehog expected. He brought the fox closer to his chest, holding him firm. He took a deep breath as a rumbling sound emitted from his chest. 

“What are you doing?” Sonic questioned. 

“Purring. The sound is often comforting to small, young, distressed creatures.” Shadow answered. “Tails counts as all three at this moment. Professor had written many papers on the subject.”

Tails calmed down and stared at Shadow with interest. 

“And now, he is no longer teething on my arm.” Shadow still kept a firm grasp on the fox.

“Does he have rabies?” The soldier he had previously bit cried in distress. 

Shadow took a step back at the glare Sonic shot them. Angry Sonic was a rare sight and Shadow wasn't about to save the fool from the blue blur. 

“No.” Sonic stated through clenched teeth. “He's a baby. And you've seen him regular. He doesn't have any diseases.”

Tails let out a whimper as he attempted to get closer into Shadow’s chest. Shadow absentmindedly gave the fox scratches behind the ear to soothe him. 

“Sorry buddy.” Sonic signed as he lowered his voice to such a soft tone. Shadow didn't know faker was capable of being so quiet. 

Tails leaned out to make little hand gestures at him. Sonic smiled at this. 

“Really?” He spoke as he signed. Shadow watched as the two spoke to each other.

“He's nicer than he looks.” Sonic giggled. 

“It's called majority.” Shadow interjected. 

Sonic raised a brow at him. “Give me my brother.”

Shadow held the fox away from him. “Why? He likes me more right now.”

Sonic frowned. Tails was giggling in Shadow’s grasp. 

“Excuse me Mr. Grump. But I raised him.” Sonic kept his voice calm. 

“You should have never been trusted with a toddler.” Shadow remarked as he brought Tails to look at him.
