[Precure] Hirogaru Episode 23: The Precure Meltdown episode. It happens every season.

Okay, but props to Mashiro for pausing several times mid-fight to go after Battamonda. She was out for blood.

The true lesson to be learned from this episode: Sora isn't the one you need to be afraid of: It's her girlfriend. ...Well, we all already knew that, though.

Anyways, this was Sora having her meltdown in one of the most Blue ways possible, including regaining her desire to win thanks to the power of her girlfriend's continuing social-fu OP power.

...Why is Sora's brother Red, though... That's just asking for trouble...

Anyways, not much to say without bigger spoilers, so... Let's get onto the ancillary stuff. Pre-ED this week was Cure Dream, from Yes Precure 5. ...Hm? ??? Wasn't there another Precure season between Precure 5 and Heartcatch?

Anyways, the big ancillary news is of course, Precure All Star F getting a release date. The official Precure Youtube channel has three different announcements for it, even.

You have the Short version, the one minute version, and... A Precure All Stars F Theme Song comment by... the artists behind the song, I think? I'm actually not sure here, tbh.

Anyways, Precure birthdays for the upcoming week: Cure Yum Yum's birthday is coming up on the 11th, and Macherie's coming up on the 15th, so. One week from now. ...Also worth mentioning, Mashiro's birthday is on the 16th, making this the second time one of this season's Precures have had their birthday on a day Precure airs in Japan.

...And upon discovering this fact, I double-checked Sora and Ageha's birthdays to see if theirs are going to be as well. The answer... Is no.

(Sora's birthday is the same week as Precure All Stars F's release date, though.)
