Kimi to Idol/You and Idol Precure teaser trailer thoughts

Yesterday was the release teaser trailer for the upcoming Precure season You and Idol PreCure.

I am really excited for this season of PreCure, mainly because this will be my first time diving in more into the PreCure series as a whole as I'm continuing watching the OG series futariwa PreCure.

There's so much to discuss but I will keep things to a minimum once the episodes come out in February.

Here is website for more information for the new season:

https://prettycure.fandom.com/wiki/Kimi_to_Idol_Pretty_Cure%E2%99%AA

1.) Characters ❤💙💜🎀⭐🎤

We're starting off with three main cures and their cure names are based off of certain poses and catchphrases that Idols do when they're on stage, which is quite an interesting idea. Our main character is Sakura Uta as Cure Idol (Pink cure), secondary cure Aokaze Nana as Cure Wink (Blue cure) and our third member Shigure Kokoro as Cure KyunKyun (Purpule cure).

From the teaser trailer we see that Uta is going to be an upbeat character who's full of optimism, as she likes to sing to help face her problems head on. Not much is known about Nana and Kokoro, as from what I've read on the wiki it states that Nana plays the piano and Kokoro is good at dancing with upbeat personalities.

I hope that we get another trailer soon so that we can see a little bit of their personalities head on.

Which brings us to our marketable plushies of the season Purirun and Meroron. I really like Merorons design with the pink and black, it's more eye catching than Purirun who looks okay for the most part but doesn't stick out as much.

2.) Story 📖 ✏

The story synopsis is simple but it's very straight to the point when you think about it. Purirun comes from a world called Kiraki land that's been overrun by our villains for the season called the Chokkiri gang lead by their leader Darkine (really? Darkine??? Thats the villian name they chose??)

As stated it's very straight to the point on who the villains are and want to do evil things. So far we don't know why the evil group is doing what they're doing but only time will tell. And from the teaser trailer we didn't see Meroron with Purirun. I don't want to go too deep into theories but from the looks of Meroron she would pass on to be an evil creature turned good through Uta's power of song in the first two episodes.

3.) To Combat or Not to Combat? That is the question! 🧐🤔🤺

One of the biggest discussions amongst precure fans is whether or not this season of precure will have hand-to-hand combat or chase action as their main action piece for the season.

Hand-to-hand combat has always been a staple in any magical girl show, but sometimes not all magical girl shows have hand-to-hand combat and use Magic as a solution to solve the problem / monster of the week, or use Chase action to connect with the monster or villain of the week using said magic to keep the narrative going with excitement and emotion.

Because this season is going to be focusing on idols and singing, my guess is that if they are going back into the hand-to-hand combat action scenes I would see it be similar to symphogear.

Symphogear is a show that is very popular for utilizing singing and hand-to-hand combat in their show not only giving us high octane fight scenes, but most importantly the songs themselves speaking through the heart of the characters that develops their narrative.

It'll be shocking if idol Precure decided to go with this strategy to help emphasize the story to help lay out the narrative for the characters, and their struggles, connecting them on an emotional level while throwing hands with the monster of the week.

But what if they decide not to do that? Then I would believe the writers will have to do another Chase action segment in the season but instead of chasing the monster, they would have to sing to the monster kind of like a battle of the bands when you think about it.

Or if we really want to make comparisons, it would be similar to Mermaid Melody where they use the power of song to enhance their magic, and the more Magic they produce from the audience the more they become powerful to heal the monster or defeat the monster in a flashy explosion.

Honestly I do hope we get some type of Battle of the Bands type of action in the show because that would be so cool to see the idol cures go up against Monsters singing their hearts out on the stage. And even though I would prefer this over Chase action, I think the symphogear approach is also good as like I said it helps enhances the fights while giving us a good songs to keep the excitement going.

4.) 🎀 Overall 🎀

Like I said in the beginning of this post there's just so much to discuss about this new season and the many theories I want to explore just from the story synopsis and character descriptions alone, but we would be here all day and I'm already having lack of sleep from the past few days so I'll stop for now.

I'm actually really excited for this new season! So I hope whether or not my predictions may come true, I hope that the first episode will leave an interesting first impression. Can't wait for February!

Thank you for listening to the rambles of a bluebird in the birdhouse 🐦.
