What a clever meshing of concepts here! The cat-themed donuts are absolutely adorable, and for that matter I love the confused curiosity with which the actual kitty looks at them! XD The fun sparkly look of the background came out fantastically, and it meshes so perfectly with the equally bright and sweet-feeling palette of the foreground; the way that aspect subtly bleeds into the line work in particular works so nicely, adding a subtle but dynamic extra level of visual flair to the whole thing. And Kirara herself looks just wonderful; the great authentic feel of the pose and the natural brightness of the expression both capture her character so strongly.
Hi @olyollyoxenfree - I'm your Gifter for @precuresecretexchange! I saw that Cure Twinkle's your favorite and you love cats and dessersts, so I combined those into Kirara's love of donuts! Hope you like it! <3

🎀 Precure Secret Exchange 2024 🎀
Hello @sekaiichi-happy, I'm your secret partner for this year’s @precuresecretexchange!
Looking at your wish list, I first hesitated indulging again for Splash Star fanart (I love them so much) then had this idea for a Twilight -> Cure Scarlet illustration that couldn't come out of my mind! (๑꒪̇ω꒪̇๑) I also love Go! Princess dearly and was happy to draw more fanart for it~ (this actually made me want to rewatch the series haha xP)
It's been 8 years (Dec 2016) since last time I drew her for you in my first Precure Secret Santa ever! That's crazy how time flies ("꒪̇O꒪̇")
Hope you’ll like it~ 💝

Precure Day 243
Episode: Yes! Precure 5 Go Go! 44 - “Deliver Them! Everyone's Presents!" Date watched: 10 June 2024 Original air date: 21 December 2008 Screenshots Precure Metamorphose Gallery 1 Gallery 2 | Sky Rose Translate Gallery Project info and master list of posts
"He does exist!"
"They do exist!"
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! (ignore that it’s the middle of June when this comes out [I am not changing that line, that’s how long I’ve been working on this]) Yes, it’s Christmas in the world of Precure 5, and historically, that means drama! So put on your Santa suit and rev up the reindeer, we’re going delivering!
The Plot
‘Twas the day before Christmas, when all through Natts House Everybody was stirring and bustling about; They all, except Nuts, dressed in fine Santa wear In hopes that their customers soon would be there;
Then Mailpo cried out, and with a sense of dread Nozomi looked up as bags fell on her head Her friends showed concern as she stood up from the rubble But Mailpo cried out that they aren't out of trouble When out from the fairy, there emerged such a list Of which Kurumi and Karen gathered the gist
Away to Eternal the plot then did shift Mucardia realized something was amiss Much about Syrup, Anacondy was hiding Then the snake found the bug, chastised him for prying And warned him that not even he will get mercy If once again she finds his results unsavory. Mucardia absconds, but Anacondy’s lips purse She knows the director, and she must move first
Back with the girls, the truth comes to face The bags contain toys and the list contains names The girls must play Santa within their fair town And deliver the gifts to children up and down So into three groups they split to fulfill their objective North, east, and south, going in every directive Now Nozomi, with Rin-chan! Urara with Syrup! Fly Komachi with Karen, and away right this instant! To the houses they run! To apartments they trawl! Now dash away, dash away, dash away all!
While the heroines scurry hither and yore Milk, Nuts, and Coco all tend to the store The Natts House is full with countless patrons And the Palmier trio try their best to placate them During their scuttle, ‘twas a strange figure Whom Urara and Syrup found in their vigor With his pants crimson red, and his beard snowy white, And his stature quite portly, he’s truly the sight Of the man called St. Nicholas, so the audience knows But to the ensemble this remains to be shown.
The man collapses with a fever quite high So Syrup brings him to the shop on the fly While Karen attends him, Urara proceeds To continue her task on this strange Christmas Eve
The red man awakes in the back of the store Declaring that he must return to his chore For he too delivers parcels around And needs to get his quest back off the ground But his sleigh he still needs to perform his task (Somehow the staff don’t find this an unusual ask) So out to the streets Syrup quickly makes To find the man’s sleigh, whatever it takes
Syrup scours the town, leaving no stone unturned While no sleigh is found, a bug makes him squirm Mucardia shows up and taunts the young man Whose past holds a secret that’s the crux of this plan Anacondy keeps this secret close to her chest So Mucardia wants to make Syrup confess In order to weasel his way next to the boss Because Anacondy, you see, is hiding their loss
As he torments the boy, the heroes hit the scene Mucardia scoffs and prepares to make them scream He summons a sleigh he’s been planning to store (The very same sleigh the old man is looking for) Then a large Hoshiina the sleigh manifests So the girls must transform to see it suppressed
They clash and they duel against this most fearsome opponent While Mucardia still interrogates for his missing component As is often the case, the fight is a distraction As Eternal’s most loyal tries to force recollection The Pretty Cure punch and they kick and they mug Trying to get to Syrup to give him a hug The monster simply gets in the way So Milky Rose leaps in and enters the fray
WIth a powerful kick, she topples the foe And the Precures cause Mucardia much woe He pleads with Syrup to try to remember Why he came to Eternal before being a courier But Cure Dream says to let him stay fogged For at the Cure Rose Garden his memory will be jogged Mucardia sics the Hoshiina upon his opponent But a Rainbow Rose Explosion destroys it in a moment
With much frustration, the villain departs And Syrup gives Nozomi his sincere regards At Eternal HQ, disinterested in the loss Anacondy ponders a letter meant for her boss She’s kept stashed away inside of her desk With the seal of a rose suggesting the rest
Back at Natts House, night has now arrived And everyone has gathered around outside To reunite the old man with his possessions And see him off on his annual obsession He explains how he fell and lost his apparel And this left him stranded and sick and in peril
But thanks to the generosity of all around He was able to recover, safe and sound So it’s to his deliveries he must return And inside everyone’s heads, the wheels begin to turn A man dressed in red with a beard snowy white With presents to spare and a sleigh that takes flight?
Nuts offers his coat to protect from the cold And everyone observes that he looks quite bold Nozomi remarks that he has Santa’s visage Causing Rin to explain that yes, that’s who he was
As they all finally realize and see their guest off Nozomi remembers a task she forgot In all the commotion, no cake was acquired But Mailpo points to a gift that Santa retired It turns out to be just the cake they wanted And they all thanked the man as he departed
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle, And away they all flew like the down of a thistle. But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight— “Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!��
The Analysis
So, quick recap in non-poem form in case it was hard to follow, here’s the gist: Santa was delivering gifts when Mucardia attacked him with the intent of adding the sleigh to Eternal’s collection. He fell from the sky, lost his coat and hat, and became ill from the cold, so his strong feelings of wanting the gifts connected with Mailpo, who brought the gifts and the list to the team. They take up the task of delivering his gifts and in the process find Santa, looking sick and out of sorts. They don’t immediately recognize him, but they tend to him and he has a talk with Syrup and regains his motivation. Mucardia, who was snooping in Anacondy’s desk, learns that Syrup has visited Eternal before becoming a courier and Anacondy is hiding something from the director, so he tries to interrogate the boy to find out why, but Syrup can’t remember his past before the girls dispatch the villain. At the end, Anaconda ponders the letter and decides she needs to take action herself because the Director is drifting too far away from her in his obsession with Flora. The team returns Santa’s sleigh and bags of presents and they watch him depart on his deliveries and then they finally realize that this fat old man with a long white beard dressed all in red with a flying sleigh is, in fact, the real Santa.
What I Liked
Aside from digging into the depths of Syrup’s memories and Anacondy’s manipulation, it is actually a fairly light episode, compared to the last two Christmas episodes, and some of the ones that will follow. I enjoyed seeing the girls playing Santa for a day, that led to some fun scenarios, and there’s some good gags that come out of it too:
It was funny how civilians repeatedly pointed out that it’s the middle of the day on Christmas Eve when the girls show up in Santa outfits delivering presents. (also, let’s be real, if some random person came to your front door on Christmas Eve with a present claiming it was on behalf of Santa, you would be at least a little suspicious)
Komachi gets really into the part of Santa, stroking her imaginary beard at one point.
Nuts weaseling out of putting on his Santa outfit by always finding a distraction is amusing, and then at the end he just gives it to the real Santa. That was cute.
Speaking of which, I appreciate that, while it’s immediately obvious to the audience that this old man is probably literally Santa, it takes the characters a long time to put the pieces together, and he doesn’t come out and say it either.
Also also….. Santa is real in this universe. The concept of Santa has remained unspoken in the franchise prior to this, and suddenly he’s here. It’s kind of amazing. To date there are only two shows that explicitly show Santa (the other being HUGtto), and a few others put spins on him like Maho Girls saying “it’s actually wizards” and Star Twinkle saying “it’s actually a race of aliens.” See my Christmas Episode post for more on that.
Kurumi makes a good coordinator for the group, and we also see Karen’s medical studies in practice as she nurses the man who is definitely not Santa. (As I’ve said before, she is 15-16 years old and still in middle school, she, hasn’t started any formal medical training or internship, so she’s just applying basic first aid, but it’s a nice gesture).
What I Didn’t Like
The art style is just a bit… off, this episode. The art director was Iijima Shuichi, who I have called out before. (GG33, GG25, GG17, GG09, GG02). His faces can be really weird. In some places I think it kind of works, but it’s more miss than hit. (I've hit the image limit on this post so skim the gallery)
Despite all the buildup, it’s still not spelled out just what Syrup’s past is. He has a revelation but it’s only half a reveal. The full truth is yet to come to light.
Miscellaneous
So this episode is a little more fresh in my mind than the rest of the series, since I last watched it 5 years ago for my Christmas episode retrospective. I mostly remembered it in comparison to the Christmas episodes that sandwich it: Yes! Precure 5, and Fresh Precure. Both of those are pretty heavy, down to earth episodes, compared to the lighter tone of this episode, and so it entrenched itself as less…. Significant, for lack of a better word. But seeing it in the context of the show, it’s more heavy than I realized or remembered.
It’s revealed that Anacondy actually intercepted a letter from Flora meant for the Director, and hid it, which could have dramatically altered their relationship and prevented the show from happening. We know that she has an obsession with the Director, possibly she’s even in love with him, and hates that he’s so obsessed with Flora. She has been trying for years to steer him away from that obsession, to no avail, and this shows just how far she’s gone. It’s dubious what this has to do with Syrup’s latent memories, although that mystery will be addressed soon enough. His big reveal is that he went to Eternal before officially becoming a courier, in order to deliver said letter (which Anacondy then stole).
Conclusion
This was a really fun and enjoyable Christmas episode, and sets the stage for the endgame of the series. It blended fun hijinks and gags with a feel-good story about Santa and some drama about Syrup’s past. Next time, it’s the beginning of the end. Look forward to it!
Pink Precure Catchphrase Count: 1 kettei!

collection of all stars christmas headcanons (these have all been featured on my blog before, from multiple different users, thought i'd compile them in one post)
if you have any ideas feel free to comment 'em
hinata starts hyping in september. everyone tells her not until november. yeah, november, because so many of them start going into christmas mode in early november that everyone's caved in before that month ends
the girls taking Ako, Aguri, and Emiru to the mall to see Santa
Team KiraKira spends three days straight in the kitchen, making enough Christmas cookies to feed an entire village. Seriously, we’ve got over six dozen girls and over three dozen fairies, and some of them eat half their weight in junk food on a regular basis. KiraKira’s gonna be up all night for days, taking shifts for who sleeps and who makes Christmas cookies. They do every recipe in the book and by the time they’re done, they’ve spent tons of money on ingredients which whats-his-name ghost guy fetches (thank goodness Aoi has money to spare, eh?) They also appoint Pikario and Bibury to guard the cookies, so that no one steals from the cooling racks. The fairies and Cures take that as a challenge, and come up with increasingly crazy ways to steal some cookies, which the cookie guards respond with increased security measures to protect the cookies from both other Cures and each other; gotta appoint 2 guards because just one will have no one to stop them from taking all the cookies! it gets to Looney Tunes Heist Movie levels
there's many Christmas movie nights and sometimes on weekends, the girls will watch two or three movies in one night and wind up all falling asleep on top of each other mid-movie. There’s always popcorn with pieces of gingerbread or candy cane in it
Decorating the different teams’ Christmas trees involves every team pitching in, tons of sparkly garlands, bows, glittery ornaments, bells, rainbow lights everywhere because lmao imagine only using one colour for your christmas tree, the tree decked in the team’s motif (i.e. butterflies for team yes!5, clovers for team fresh, flowers for team heartcatch, musical notes for team suite, card suits for team dokidoki, stars for team star twinkle, etc), and flying mascots putting the massive glittery golden star on top
everyone 13 and under puts on a Christmas play for the older ones. Starring Kirara, of course, and complete with musical numbers and precure magic used for special effects/cool costumes. Everyone goes wild at the end
there is a LOT of gay kissing under the mistletoe
Team Suite 100% goes caroling around the city. In costume.
on Christmas Eve, Reika uses her powers to make it snow. she does so while flying above them in Ultra form. people who spot her go "omg i saw a christmas angel" because, well. girl in the sky with white wings and a white feathery dress, a glowing golden halo, and a golden crown. bringing snow.
team heartcatch decorate coppe like a christmas tree
-Inori knows all the secret extra verses to every Christmas carol. The cures who only know the first verse of each song are impressed.
-speaking of caroling, the girls totally gather around the tree to sing carols. Several fairies who don’t want to sing instead choose to send Mana on a scavenger hunt throughout a dimension of their choice. This is treated like a spy mission that will decide the fate of the world, in the same way sneaking cookies from the cooling rack is treated as a major heist. There’s secret codes involved.
from just-someone-online, the king/queen/idk what term they prefer of precure headcanons:
Miyuki pulls out all the stops with the Christmas movies. Rudolph, Frosty, everything. Her love of Christmas classics rivals her love for storybooks.
-Setsuna and Yuko teleport the other cures around their respective towns so they can get their shopping done as quickly as possible.
-Mana and Madoka arrange a Secret Santa party for everyone. It turns out to be way more work than either of them expected since there are so figgin many of them.
-Erika, Nozomi, and Hime keep trying to sneak a peek at their gifts. Their respective teams are having a hell of a time keeping them hidden.
-The weather takes a turn for the worse a few days before Christmas so the ice and fire cures work together to keep the roads clear so people can get home safely.
-Yayoi, Mai, and Yui design invitations to the Christmas party. (I know Yui’s not a cure but I feel like they’d invite everyone who knew they were Precure)
-On the day of the party, everyone’s freaking out because they all got a cure that they aren’t overly familiar with (Hikaru got Hikari, Aguri got Nagisa, etc.). Some the gifts end up being right on the money. Others…not so much. Let’s just say Nao didn’t like the ladybug plush as much as Komachi thought she would.
-The MahoPre use their magic to make it snow indoors once they finish with the gift exchange.
-Hugtan and Ai are in little Santa outfits and toddle around giving candy canes to everyone. Everybody gushes about how cute they look.
-On Christmas day, some of the cures track down some of the villains who weren’t reformed and wish them a Merry Christmas. None of them will admit it, but it brightened their day.
from kennycantdecide
- Team Star Twinkle has to take off early to help deliver presents
- Most teams try to join them, but end up getting motion sickness from the ship
- After too many present mishaps, they decide to make it so you get someone from the same color group
- Leads to arguments on color schemes (where does Black and Sunny fit?)
- They all try to have a sleep over at Alice’s manor near Christmas
- Many cures end up sneaking out because they can’t stand watching Christmas movies anymore
- Couples who aren’t officially together yet are always tricked into getting under a mistletoe, and the reactions are varied
- Mai and Yayoi are asked to help design the party decorations
- Erika tries to design Christmas outfits for everyone, but fails because there are so many of them
- The fairies dress like elves, some love it, others despise it
from kiramaipink
-Yuko totally helps KiraKira with the holiday treats!!
-Hana gets so caught up in cheering everyone on with the decorating & baking that Saaya & Homare have to remind her to do her gift shopping
-Ruru & Emiru perform a lil christmas song they wrote together
-Aside from the secret Santa exchange, Mirai, Riko, and Ha-Chan each made little handmade gifts for Mofurun <3
-Hime & Kirara working on styling cute holiday outfits for everyone
-At some point Yukari & Akira sneak away to have a quiet little gift exchange <3
from sunnypokegrapher22
- the ice cures would make a ice palace theme amusment park for the other cures to play in. it aways has a team motif included in the designs. the team motif i decided in a ruffle

Merry Christmas @curejune !
I’m your secret santa this year, and as soon as I saw your Cure OCs design I knew I had to draw her! My inspiration for this particular picture was thinking up a transformation sequence for her. I don’t know why but her colourscheme just screamed clovers and daisies to me. 🍀🌼
I had so much fun working on your gift, and I wish you and your family a safe and happy holiday. 💖💖💖
