If Pretty Cure’s continuity wasn’t screwy enough before, then Happiness Charge solidified it. While it did have some cool ideas in concept, the fact that there are just suddenly Cures scattered all over the world just confuses me even more about past and future events. If there were so many other heroines in nations like France or America, then where the hell were they when global threats like Criasu attacked? And while I do think the idea of a Pretty Cure bounty hunter is awesome, why was Phantom just going after the HC Cures and not any other factions? And why didn’t said factions do anything to stop him?

Cure Hana Well this show did air in 2014 before Criasu was even thing I guess but I get what your saying, I think they didn’t really take the continuity that serious until the cameos started happening at the end of Mahou pre and even then it’s...still really confusing 🙃

Cure Hana The thing about 'continuity' in Precure is that it never exist in the first place. At most they just admitted that there are OTHER Precure from another series. Do they personally know about them in reality? No. Then what about Saaya talking about Urara back in crossover episode? It is obviously Toei playing to their setting as Entertainer. Like, really they just want to make some excuse of putting two and two together in a crossover goods for collectibles (and there sure damn a lot of them) you might even want to check about Idol Precure lineup series. Anyway if this 'continuity' thing actually exist then the older Precure would grow older during the latest movie and not trapped in their 13 y.o. body forever. Cameo is meant to be treated as that, cameo. Hugtto did made some nod toward the cameo actually happening but let's face it, Toei is doing that for the sake of Anniversary and marketing purpose because what child would know about the older group 5 years apart from their time? When there is none of that stuff, then 'Continuity' is basically nonexistent. In short, thinking too deep about continuity in Precure is foolish move. It will never made sense because Toei never made a good deal about it in the first place outside of marketing stuff.

This was the first Precure season I watched weekly, and I can't help but remember it fondly... in some parts. My favorite character was 100% Hime, as she had the most character development, not to mention an easy chemistry with Seiji, which I felt Megumi had not. The plot was also interesting, but like Mahou Tsukai and Star Twinkle, it felt they never took advantage of the large scope and it fell flat when THAT THING happened.

To be honest, I do have a special place for HapiCha in my heart. I might be frustrated for Megumi, Yuko and Iona and Hime was the only salvation to the team in terms of personalities and motives, but I won't lie when I say that HappinessCharge does not deserve all the hate that gets. It was a season that I really liked the toys (Do I have to mention that they sorta look like the Changers from Goseiger?), change forms, collectibles and designs. You may complain they look plain but when you have to design Pretty Cure for all the World, they are not so bad. Their fighting style was solid in an infinite number of episodes (compared to further seasons), animation was good in important occasions, New Stage 3 was the best of the saga and don't let me start on their fall movie, the villains aren't forgettable (wish Red and Mirage died for more impact though), Red was always present and didn't came up suddenly, the episode about Iona and Maria was neat, Phantom was a good villain and the concept of Pretty Cures around the world was exciting. Now the bad. The plot goes around "Everyone has to have their happiness", therefore, even as a scum as Red has to be purified. Blue, who caused all this shit has to be happy...because Lovely wants to. Phantom was a fairy. One of those ugly ladybug fairies that were so irrelevant the whole season: Ribbon only had one focus episode, Glassan was like a gag and ugh...Aloalo and Phantom were like on the sidelines. What's the point of having Cures around the world if you don't let the Cures beat Saiarks around the World instead of just freaking Pikarigaoka!? Characters like Seiji and Matsuko were wasted, I wanted them to be cures. Megumi never bothered me personally until episode 30 onward where everything was suddenly about her and her wish to make everyone happy. Iona was irrelevant after she brought back her sister, Yuko was never relevant and her relation to Phantom would have made more sense with Lovely or Fortune, Hime....God...Why Hime? Why did they ignore her until the end damn it!? We can all agree this season is a 6/10 right?

Yeah, someone better not tell Ikuyo who her daughter hung out with in All Star Memories. Anyway, Happiness Charge at last and......it’s just as underwhelming as I remembered and yet, after being burned out by fighting pastry and the most tamed space adventure in my entire life, I can totally understand why you would appreciate this season a tad bit more. As mediocre the action is sometimes, it’s freaking nuance compared to Star Twinkle fights. Hell, at least they have a crud load of attacks to avoid repetition. Still, the most enjoyment I got out of this season are the messages. Seriously, seeing the girl with the best Smile was the best part of ep 5 for me. Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem like my view on the characters have changed that much as watching this review reminds me of why Megumi is such an ineffective protagonist. Not only she still lacks a unique quirk of her own to distinguish herself from other leads but preparing your own damn party that your friend is setting up for you? Seriously? Really, much like Lala in Star Twinkle, I still view Hime as this Cure team’s saving grace. Iona is a Cure Moonlight wanna be as we will see soon enough and Cure Honey is.....there. Ask for Seiji, he’s actually pretty great. There’s a reason he appeared on the NHK poll compared to........every other character in this show. Oh yeah, Blue. I’ll let Adam explain why he’s awful in a later video but I’ll just say basically the blueprints (No pun intended) for the Star Princesses. In other words, @&$! him. Great review, Adam. Glad it came out sooner than I expected!

I agree with everything you said except Hime being the saving grace. I watched this series when it aired so it’s been a long time, but I do NOT recall myself liking Hime at all. Her spoiled brat personality just never grew on me and people being dumb doesn’t entertain me. She had a fair share of character development but it falls completely flat when Erika can be a living meme AND be a properly developed character at the same time, and can do it WELL. As for my favourite Cure in this season, I can actually bear with Fortune even though she is clearly a rip-off of my favourite Cure in the entire franchise. Megumi annoys me as much as she does you, and yes, Yuko is just... there... and she loves food... end of story. And then Hime doesn’t manage to get me to like her either because she feels like a brat from time to time even after her supposed character development. While Fortune’s tragic experience (despite miles... I mean LIGHTYEARS away from Moonlight) is still a little poignant, and let’s admit it, she’s the only competent fighter in the team.

I was really unhappy about one thing: International Precure. It was WASTED. I kinda wished they could of went to different part of the countries, helping other Precure. They could even gain their Form Changes from other countries, as a plot thing (e.g. Princess gains her Hawaiian form from Aloha Precure), but no. The international plot was just thrown aside and briefly mentioned. Thats why i only liked Aloha Precure in the season; I also think the international precure had better design wise than the main team! If you rep Japan, shouldnt they have a more traditional Japanese outfit? Like Cure Mirage does have a Japanese vibe to her design.

Each season is based in its own universe. The All Stars films are their own continuity. It’s only when MahoGirls decided to have the next lead make a cameo appearance in the final episode does it seem like they’re in the same world. Especially when HUGtto decides to bring all the characters back for a few episodes. Some were confirmed to be in different universes or at least timelines, while it also seems to indicate that Yes 5 and HUGtto live in the same world with Urara and Saaya being fans of one another’s work. But honestly, this season could have been great, as with every season, but it just couldn’t focus on it’s character development well as well as using the eggs in its basket to their full potential. SPOILERS BUT NOT REALLY SINCE THIS SEASON AIRED YEARS AGO Megumi felt static the entire season, in my opinion. She never grew as a person at the end of the day. She could have had a great storyline, but nahhhh. It’s also aggravating that she had the final boss fight by herself. Yuko, coulda been a best girl if her storyline didn’t revolve solely on food. She herself is a decently written character. She just needed a bit more to go on. Her bond with Phantom could have been a really great story, but it was built too late and felt unfinished. I still find their relationship a nice touch though. Iona deserved better. That’s all. Hime was definitely more of a lead than Megumi. Her development, compared to the others, is farrr better, but still needed more to feel solid. The international PreCure plot device should have been a GRAND storyline. Like, we could have had each episode focus on a different team or at least give us more detail on them. Also, it bugs me that they didn’t show any variation in skin tone, aside from Aloha PreCure and even they had almost the same skin tone as Saki from Splash Star.

Your point about all the precure teams from over the years and how they fit together into a single timeline/continuity, I notice this is a recurring issue with legacy series. They want to progress characters and events and introduce successors- all without progressing time. Comic books routinely claim decades worth of storylines have all happened just within the last few years, no matter how little sense that makes. Batman has had at least 5 sidekicks despite only being Batman for about a decade in-universe. Why do so few writers bother to age up the characters and give them new challenges to face with age? Sitcoms with child characters are good about that. The storylines age up with the characters out of necessity, you can't keep having storylines about not sharing toys when the kids are old enough to drive and work a 9-5. But animation isn't nearly as vulnerable to that restriction of aging actors, so since they don't _have to_ age up the characters, they just don't. Sure, there are advantages to being able to age the characters more slowly, it's even necessary to a degree since it takes several weeks if not a few months to get what only amounts to a few days in-universe to play out, you'd have to have numerous big date gaps if you made the in-universe timeline progress in realtime, but you still have to have _some_ time progression or else you get issues like what you were saying. We can reasonably infer that each Precure series takes place over the course of about a year, since they tend to all start around the beginning of the school year and end around finals, and this is further supported by all the holiday special episodes or otherwise episodes that make explicit reference to the date. The crossover films happen pretty early on in most series, fairly recently after the then-current team became precure, and all the veteran teams have all the team members and costumes and powers as of their ends of their respective series, so we can conclude that it is in fact each successive series starting after the previous series ends on a sequential timeline, not simultaneous. Which means that Futari Wa precure should have graduated from college by now or otherwise be in their mid-20's, and yet they're still crossing over as if they're teenagers- as if no time had passed from how they were at the end of their series.

When you have watched worst Precure series, looking back at something bad like Happiness Charge really made you appreciate what good stuff they have. Honestly, aside from Megumi, the other thing that made me dislike Happiness Charge is how they treat the setting and story, cause the plot holes that can be seen in this series is HUGE! This made even worst, when future Precure series did not learn from that mistake, along with some new ones, which made them 10x worst. But hey, that is just me. I am sucker for having little details that shape the story, and seeing how the story can just do whatever it wants without following the rules they have established without a good reason just irks me. And speaking of settings, this series has a ton of contradictions and unanswered things that made the plot hole really huge, and the further you watch, the more obvious the plot holes are. But I'll wait for that. The new Prechange system is one of the most pointless gimmick this series has to offer. When this series aired, I ranted about how the form changes are completely pointless and useless as it is just a screen nuke. The base forms has more abilities and power than the form changes, so what is even the point? This all would be made better in Maho Tsukai, and you can tell that there is a reason why form changes aren't used in Precure often, despite having some potentials. Looking forward to see how this series starts to fall apart.

Really for deity I'm questioning which one is the worse between 12 Princess or Blue since the former was just there while the latter is annoying viewer constantly from time to time.

Fantastic review, as usual. I always love the effort you put into appreciating every character even down to one’s that sometimes get overlooked by other reviewers (like the mascots!) Also, I have a theory, that I’m pretty sure 42:59 (Hime doing the pose as Cure Honey), is intended as a possible reference to the original 70s anime of Cutey Honey. In the first episode of that show (which was the only one I watched), nearly the exact same pose is done, by Cutey Honey during a scene when she’s singing the main theme, to trick the bad guys. She’s even got a very similiar outfit to the one Hime is wearing here, which also inspired my comparison. If that was intentional, that’s kinda a cool reference, to old school mahou

So years after seeing this series I came to realize that it didn't feel like an anniversary series. Not once did the OG Cures make an appearance on the show. You know what Toei property celebrated a franchise properly? Gokaiger. Happiness Charge could've been like Gokaiger but instead it became another typical Cure series. With some minor surprises here and there.

While I do admit this is not a great season ,it still had few things in it that I've wanted to see. A big scale battle that was going around the world and different Precure teams fighting this new evil. When I saw this season, I thought it would be like Gokaiger and a different Cure team would show up to help out in someway. Seiji was something I've also wanted to see done, as he was just a normal boy who wasn't a princess or a fairy. Just a normal kid who knew their secret and just helped out from time to time. Still, the show does have a lot of problems and it wasted a lot of good ideas. Thou I have to say, I liked this season more then Doki Doki.

Since Megumi has a savior complex, which is evident based on how she defines herself as a pure busybody and shows similar symptoms of said savior complex, why didn't anyone see that and take her for some therapy to get it fixed? From what I've read, a savior complex can't be fixed by normal means, you need to get therapy in order to get rid of or minimize the savior complex in a person if they have it. I understand that everyone has flaws and some are caused by mental issues, which I can understand since I have a mental disability, but sometimes, there comes a point where you might need to send someone who is severely suffering from mental issues to therapy to help. Savior complexes lead to self-destruction, so yeah, best that they get Megumi some therapy.

Regarding the episode with a choir, it seriously reminds me of the episode with the drama club in Heartcatch. I don’t know if they meant to take inspiration but I think they do, it’s too much of a coincidence. Anyhow, Heartcatch delivered it much better with Azusa actually being in the wrong and not willing to admit it at first, but then she learnt from Erika, who she already knows and almost have a rivalry with. She was shown to be so passionate for acting, she kept acting even when she was alone and she cried on the rooftop afterwards. The emotions was just so much more hard hit when she reconciled with her team by the end of the episode. Why couldn’t Happiness Charge do something like this? 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Mmmmm...Hapcha huh... If u ask me how I feel about this series, it's mainly "I hate it"...though not as rage inducing as MTP, Kira2 and last year's STP (Hapcha's rank 4 on my hate list). I mellowed out over the years. Again, I still hate it...though not as much as before. Concept wise, personally I like it. U can able to make up any attacks with your imagination that I enjoyed their beam spamming so much. At the very least, this season has more IMAGINATION AND CREATIVITY than last year's season...just saying. The Precure outfits of theirs is...eh. Reminds me of Sailor Moon outfits but I like that each one have different styles to distinguish themselves from the rest of the Cures around the world...and those cards coming from their fairy's snot huh. Mmmm...better than Heartcatch's fairy s**t XD also those cards remind me of Kamen Rider =w= Now for the characters...immediately, Hime: star of the show. Yeah, you're right on point of her being the "konosuba" of Precure. She's annoying...but to the point that it's charming. I know she'll get better throughout this season that's for sure. Yuko...eeeeeeh, not gonna lie: I forgot about her as a character. I only recall her being both a skilled support type to the group and a full on foodie ^^; Seiji could've been the best human support character long before Yui from GoPri came along...but as is, he's good

I think what made Hime worked despite being an idiot and somewhat annoying, compare to Megumi and Hikaru, and even Ichika, is that Hime was painted as the spoiled brat of the story, where as the pink leads I just mentioned are painted as role models, the goody two shoes that we should strive for. This is why I do not favor EXTREMELY good characters without any sign of personality that shows their darker side, as more often than not, they can be potray as hyprocites. This is why I like characters like Usagi aka Sailormoon, cause she is a character that is not totally good, and not to be seen as a role model, but someone relatable. Another character that I really like is Momoka aka Hyper Blossom from PPGZ, as she is a "pink lead" that shows just how much of a brat and a smart brat at that, and not just another good character that is played as a role model. Watching them just feels.... refreshing in a way.

I usually don’t comment on the overall series review, but I have a lot of say for this series. The name is even longer in Japanese. Looks like someone has the same opinions on the opening and endings. Coupled with my distaste for the character designs (seriously who gave them makeup) and the annoying music, I was not a fan. Happiness Charge Precure. Oh yes. This season. Back when I first watched this, I absolutely despised it. Like you, my opinion on this show mellowed out. Especially since I’ve seen worse in this franchise. The main problem with this show is that it tried too hard to mimic HeartCatch’s success. It had interesting plot points that were not explored or developed.

IT'S TIME BABY! Let me just say that while I do have strong opinions on HpCh, they are just strong opinions regarding "moments" because overall I believe HpCh does have some good ideas within it. It's not all bad, but as an anniversary season akin to Hugtto it really got screwed over. What's with Toei not being able to do anniversaries right with this series? *Sigh* That being said this is the before portion of the review so I'm going to point out while I did rewatch the series, I do have mixed feelings as well. Let's get to the breakdown: 3:00 The title is wayyy too long. I'll agree there. 4:40 At least they didn't crap them out like in HC lol 6:00 I'm mixed on the inclusion of the cures at the beginning. Considering we will be getting the internationals later, there's more to worry about. It is a nice touch due to contraints though 6:18 The opening is not too memorable. It's just really bland. Lovely interjecting is annoying but not the worst. You can definitely see the similarities to HeartCatch though. 7:50 To be fair, the precure being known could've been a cool idea...if it wasn't for the fact NOTHING comes from it. There's a reason why the precure are manly a secret and unknown so you don't have to ask questions like "why doesn't the government go and try to help them?" We have a literal God on this planet and no one seems to care but everyone seems to know who Blue is? Not even 2 minutes into the show's main plot and we have what I call the HpCHh plothole party! 9:07 SAME! Hime has way more charm than the main lead does ironically. If you just switched this with a pink it'd be much more endearing because Hime oozes that naturally charisma. Yeah, Hime is a brat, but I like that! I like the departure from the normal goody two shoes protags. She ALSO develops to be a better person. Something the main protag of this season DOESN'T HAVE...but I'll get to that later. 10:46 Yeah...I think they tried way too hard to recapture their success with Heartcatch here. It's one thing to have homages, it's another to literally REUSE the same format only a few years afterwards. Heartcatch would still be fresh in people's minds by this point. They should've waited before doing something like this again. 11:50 They aren't too bad, but let me rant on the outfits in this show for a moment. They are my least favorite precure outfits. The navy vests just don't look good. And let me just say, they really tried with he animation with these and I can respect that but they still are just not appealing to me. Navy doesn't work well with the pastel color choices they chose and it makes every Cure look like they came out of a dollmaker. Which yeah, this series is meant to sell toys, but at least the cures were distinct. It's just so blatant here and it bothers me so much. 17;40 Oooooohhhh boyyyyy. I can't wait for the wish subplot to be brought up. That will be glorious! 19:45: The CGI...is a mixed bag for me. I think it just takes too much of the run time. Every character has their own CGI move and it really becomes spammy until the finisher is revealed. 29:00 THIS. THIS right here. Megumi is probably one of the the most INACTIVE leads in all of precure, only beaten out by Hikaru. She has almost NO agency in the story up until story important points and it's so frustrating to see her constantly get shafted because she's so generic. I barely call her a lead because she's just so dense and not endearing that I don't want to follow HER story. I want to follow HIME'S STORY because she's the better character by a longshot. 31:29 The international cures are such a disappointment. They appear 3 WHOLE times in the show. A special episode, the ending episodes and introduced early on. They have no impact, character, and only serve to be stereotypical props. Ugh. 42:21 Yeah. You think you could've told them that beforehand blue? Having another cure is helpful and YET this guy doesn't even bother to inform the others about this? Talk about setting up these girls for failure. lol Overall, great review!

It's kind of similar in a sense to Sailor Moon as they're really tall for 14-15 year olds , but here I think it's more of the problem with the overall art style. Heartcatch had the same thing but it was super super stylistic. so having lanky arms wouldn't bother me because every does. Here, even the international cures don't really suffer from the same issue. It's kind of odd. And one of the reasons why I'm glad we haven't had this character designer back in Precure. I don't think they're bad, but they just don't fit precure's looks.

At least Doki is entertaining even though it's an absolute trainwreck, Kirakira has likable characters even though it's more of a baking show than a Precure, and Star Twinkle has Lala. Happiness Charge has nothing good enough to make the rest worth sitting through.

@@kellyjohana516 which brings me to a comment i made several times in the past suggesting some of the recent seasons, particularly KiraKira, deserved a second season given how in Kira Kira's case the rushed plot, unexplained mcguffins, mary sue pink lead, and unfortunately retconned finale that was confirmed to have been intended for everyone's favorite waffle brother just to stick with the status quo, ended up creating such a huge backlash they had to rectify it when introducing Henri. And to make matters worse his title of First Male Pretty Cure was made utterly pointless as the finale of HUGtto featured every character becoming a Pretty Cure which seems like a big middle finger from the Toei executives toward the fans and writers who were pissed off at the Kira Kira retcon. At least if KiraKira had a second season it wouldve justified Pekorin gaining pretty cure status as she'd be given more chances to develope as a character. While also being the season where after the events of the first season Pikario would be adjusting to being the new member of the team. (The writers would have to get creative with the more slice of life bonding episodes so it doesnt feel awkward for the one boy of the team...though they have had boy fairies attend the slumber parties...though only in their fairy forms...ugh magical girl shows make it hard to understand where certain boundary lines are placed when they have male mascots....) Plus the team would be the largest team of all the cures with 8 active members one of which was a boy which couldve been an incredible change to the status quo. Plus HUGtto could've landed on the true 15th anniversary of the series. I agree with what the Azenzone said during his overall thoughts of Star Twinkle video. Saying that Star Twinkle should get a director's cut given how much the Toei Execs forced Muriyama (forgive me if i mispelled his name) to rewrite his story just for the sake of their bottom line. However i feel as though kirakira deserved a director's cut also. Its hard for me to properly explain why i think this without writing an entire essay on the subject but the bottom line is that I am passionate for this series and want to see the show that the writers brought to the table. Not what the higher ups want to show. Yes at the end of the day the toys need to sell but it doesnt mean they should ruin all the hard work the head writers put into the story just to force the toys off the shelves. Or to stick with the status quo... You put your faith into these writers so let them tell the story that got the green light in the first place! I am sorry for being repetitive but after so many of my favorite series botching up their anniversary seasons all because of harrassment from fans or the higher ups.its hard to stay inspired... I followed each season so closely i could see the directions the writers were taken three arcs away. i spent years writing prototype scripts so i could hopefully get a job writing for said shows! I feel my inspiration for writing waning with everytime the writers are forced to change things that werent intended to change....this is why show bibles exist people. It hurts to even think of myself as a fan now because they changed so much the show isnt the same show anymore and we are told it still takes place in the same exact universe with the same msin protagonist...and i just cant follow any of it. Sorry i lapsed into my rant on the pokemon anime... I want to inspire kids by these show just like i was is the point.

I want to watch Happiness Charge Precure but i can't find it for free on google and i can't find any anime websites that have every full episodes of all the Precure shows. I can't find them in the US and i have to buy the very exspinsive DVDs on amazon. What anime websites do you watch Precure with full episodes and no cut episodes and short clips of Precure?

Tbh I think this is a season meant for entertainment value thats not entertaining. That's why it's for sure my least favorite, but I could easily see someone loving it if they did find it entertaining.
