[precure] thinking about character colours and not only how common yellow is even beyond the overused pink/blue/yellow/purple, but most seasons without a yellow find some way to make up for it
tutorials georg
Futari Wa has a gold form change in a dubiously canon movie.
tutorials georg
Heartcatch is debatable. Cures Sunshine and Moonlight were initially marketed as gold and silver, but are currently sorted as yellow and purple.
tutorials georg
Mahou Girls, again, the whole team has a yellow form change.
tutorials georg
Star Twinkle is either purple/green/pink/blue/yellow or purple/blue/pink/rainbow/orange depending on what Toei wants to sort them into in the marketing that day.
tutorials georg
Wonderful has Satoru even if he only transformed twice.
tutorials georg
So the only seasons without anyone who could even possibly be seen as a yellow cure are Hiropre and Idolpre.
tutorials georg
(Discounting those people who thought the primary colour buttons on the Colourful Action Mix Palette were reclassifying Butterfly and Wing as red and yellow.)

Mofurun
tutorials georg
Also true
▲ndrusi
my heartcatch color discourse hot take is that gold and yellow are not meaningfully distinct in this context
tutorials georg
see, i'd say that but delicious-party has both a gold and a yellow
tutorials georg
(even if finale super looks like a white and has a purple magic aura)
tutorials georg
the gold/yellow distinction is way easier in live action, which is probably why super sentai has a lot more instances of a team having both a gold and a yellow
▲ndrusi
yeah that's why "in this context"
tutorials georg
nods

I think sorting Precure based on color is a fool's errand and it's inherently subject to Toei's flighty whims so I don't concern myself with it beyond basic descriptions
~Lamiamon~
they are whatever they are described as in series, or whatever feels right. you can call Zunkyoon green, or you can call her white. Cast off your shackles. Gold can be yellow! Silver can be purple! Up is down! Black is White!

listen. the yellows are often just, like, the best cures in the season, alright,

*cure. but she is also cute
TC
Yellow/Orange/Golds are definitely the best ones

: it's run in (a version of) valor, a relatively crunchy system meant to simulate battle anime
TC
Ah I'm actually familiar with Valor, a friend of mine tried to put a Kamen Rider game together but it fell through.
