HeartCatch 18 and 19:

I liked 18. Ban reminded me of Kanji from Persona 4. I figured he would be into cute things, but a Precure manga? That was unexpected. It was till pretty much filler, but enjoyable filler.

As for 19...I thought it was ok. It bothered me that they never brought up Aki's mother, but we got a bit of backstory on Erika's father, which was nice. Also, HOLY CRAP Erika's dad opened his eyes! I found it weird that he acted like a giant monster is a normal thing.

EDIT: Episode 20:

The plot thickens...

A new fairy is born! and we see or hear, rather the Desert Apostles' true leader, Dune. The only thing that bothered me was how easily the bad guys gave up. Cobraja I understand, but Kumojacky could've stayed and helped Sasorina out.

21:

*sigh* Really Erika? You take Potpourri's Precure Seed and ask what it is? Gee...I don't know, maybe it's that thing you use to transform!!! Anyway, the Precure scouting parts were funny. I particularly enjoyed the part with Ban. I have to wonder, though...could a guy become a Precure? I have to agree with Cobraja here...THAT'S the reason her heart flower was wilting? Everyone else's thus far have been over more serious issues than just being scared. I feel stupid for not already figuring out that Coupe was Tsubomi's Grandma's partner. I had originally thought he was just there. Also, Yuri smiled for once! This was the most I've ever enjoyed myself during an episode of HeartCatch.

22:

So...Kumojacky just looked at a Typhoon for 30 seconds and developed a new attack from it...okaaaaaaay...

23:

Cure Sunshine had an awesome introduction! This was a really good episode. I was honestly afraid that something worse was going to happen to Itsuki's brother for her to become Cure Sunshine. I love her henshin sequence, by the way, the karate moves are a nice touch. I also love how her finisher is Macross Missile Massacre, also her catchphrase is my favorite.

24:

WOAH! This show just went all DBZ!

That fight against Dark Precure was awesome! It really had me on the edge of my seat, and capes! They've been in the intro the whole time...it's about time they used those.

So yeah, the Cure Sunshine story arc is definitely my favorite story arc thus far.

25:
Woah! Sunshine almost got Sasorina! Sunshine is quickly becoming my favorite Precure...even though I still think Moonlight looks way cooler. I love how Cobraja lets whether or not he thinks something is beautiful dictate all of his actions.

Also, way to spoil the Super Modes in the end credits there, guys...

Now I gotta wait for this next batch torrent to download...
