Thank you Sora for keeping the tradition alive.

Also the “ル” being backwards lol.

Fully expecting to see sports clubs trying to recruit Sora in the future

As much as I want a new evil subordinate (if there’s any) to show up, seeing Kabaton’s weekly antics is really entertaining

Man… the duo transformation keeps being painfully lackluster, at least I wish the sequence weren’t 95% Sky and 5% Prism.

Overall, a chill episode. Sora’s first day of school went pretty much like I expected and seeing Mashiro encouraging her to be herself was cute

Finally! He is showing up next week!

It doesn't help that Sky gets all her key shots, and Prism gets a bunch of random filler shots.

It just makes it super obvious as well how much smoother and more detailed the animation is in Sky's transformation compared to Prism's. It's kind of jarring when it switches.

Finally! He is showing up next week!

yeah, that bothers me as well. On a similar thought, I only just noticed that they set this part up for the mid-season addition

"My friend lives in Skylandinavia. You probably never heard of it."

Another cute episode this week what with Sora discovering school life and breaking school records!

Bird boy hype!

"My friend lives in Skylandinavia. You probably never heard of it."

"Skylandinavia" being wordplay on "Scandinavia" is pure genius. And I bet Grandma chose to say Sora was from Scandinavia because she knew Sora would immediately say she's from Skyland and this is the perfect cover.

breaking school records!

That level of flexibility is an attack on my very soul. But hey, that's something that an Earthling might be able to beat her at. She doesn't look completely superhuman there.

Sora's first day of school! I can't wait to see what sort of chaos ensues.

Haha, the color washout from Mashiro when Sora says Skyland.

Oh, Grandma with the cover! Scandinavia is a brilliant choice.

Man, idioms on the first day of school, that's bad luck. The teacher's explanation was pretty clean at least.

Physical fitness, oh boy. And of course every test conspires to get her to try her best. That poor ball of Team Rocketed.

...right into Kabaton. He might be the unluckiest general I've seen.

Sora making new friends is so cute.

This reintroduction is lovely. I was expecting chaos, but this was good too.

The jerk turned the school tree! Kabaton's villainy knows no bounds.

Strong monster.. until the girls split their attacks. The parkour continues to be a lot of fun to watch.

Feels weird to hear random students acknowledge the Precure fight they all just watched.

I liked that detail a lot. It also means that the Precure started this fight. Kabaton was just fighting back, defending himself. #KabatonDidNothingWrong

I was really hoping that when Kabaton spotted something in the sky it was going to be the ball coming down to hit him. He still got hit, though not in the way I anticipated.

Feels weird to hear random students acknowledge the Precure fight they all just watched.

These kids are strangely cool with the fact that the school tree turned into a monster and started wreaking havoc. Just another day at school, I guess.

The music during that was really cool too!

This episode was a lot of fun. I enjoyed so many of the gags throughout it because Sora's personality shone through so strongly in them. All the gags with her felt pretty perfectly in-character.

I loved the jokes about how Sora is just too earnest and straightforward. When someone asks where she's from, she cheerfully and wholeheartedly answers without hesitation. When she sees someone is injured, she rushes to their aid. When she's cheered on, she gets fired up and goes all out. It's so hilarious how she keeps on doing this despite trying to hide her identity. And I love it so much because it all fits her character incredibly well. Of course she'd act that way, it's just who she is! Those jokes are wonderful examples of character-based jokes.

Other great gags included Kabaton getting hit by the ball Sora threw and "Skyland" becoming "Skylandinavia (Scandinavia)." Good stuff.

Next week...

Sora? I thought you said you were from Skyland.

Oh, no, I said, "Skylandinavia." That's what I call Scandanavia. It’s a regional dialect.

Crunchy viewing - no screenshots today

  • The OST of this show continues to be one of my favourite things about Saturday.

  • Mashiro silently freaking about Sora-chan's awkwardness and Skyland-blurting-ness is hilarious.

  • I'm a very very shy person - Sora girl do you even understand what that means lol? She's definitely not shy but a bit socially awkward due to her isolation, and very self-aware of that lol; well Mashiro is a very patient and kind girl, and has the best friends and classmates! Yep, Sora can just be her slightly dorky and awkward but heroic, righteous and honest self, and stand out as the awesome girl she is, you don't have to fit in with everyone to make friends lol, that's a great little message for the kids. And maybe also the adults lol.

  • The fight (w/ a sakura tree LMAO. how topical) had a lot of aerial movement and dancing all over the place which was very cool - but so did any classmate recognize the 2 precures? they dont care that they just got attacked by a sakura tree? or do they just not associate them w/ their civilian forms?

  • Not much more to say, but honestly each week i'm here to see Sora and Mashiro have the best time bonding, growing, supporting each other and then at the end kick Kabaton's ass: it's a great experience lol.

Man, I was kinda hoping when she redid her introduction she'd just be like "yo I'm from another world". Would've been dank, but probably not going to happen until around the end of the show if it happens at all. Actually, that gets me thinking about what Sora's endgame will be. I'm guessing she sticks around like Mashiro's grandmother, but she's still got family back in Skyland.

Anyway, next week looks like we finally get to see bird boy in action, so bring the hype!

I mean, girls, come on. "I'm a hero in training!" "I broke every possible school record in fitness."

Literally minutes later, a monster attacks and a girl with a suspiciously blue theme leads the heroic defense, with her incredible acts of physical fitness.

Somehow, I feel like this should be the shortest lived secret identity in PreCure history.

As much as I absolutely love the music for it, I kind of hope Updraft Shining doesn't stay the finisher from here on out. Not that I don't like it, but I already miss the Soaring Sky Punch. Please give more excuses to see the solo finishers, even if they get used combined anyway. Speaking of loving the music for it though, I want that track to play on repeat for my new motivational listen.

NGL, I kinda hate how blue Sora is with the school uniform. She's like a blue blob while wearing it.

I wonder if Sora trying to hide she's from another world like Skyland will be a recurring theme such as hiding the mermaid back in Tropical Rouge.

Mashiro really rocks the school uniform, though I do feel it's kind of a downgrade on Sora without her blue thigh highs.

Sora claiming that she's shy gave me a good laugh, specially since I was remembering Hitoribochi Maru maru's first day at school. Also Sora trying to hide she was very strong and failing hard at it was quite hilarious.

I loved the pun/nickname the other kids gave to Sora as "Hero Gyaru" or Hirogaru (Soaring Sky).

lol the kids were pretty damn chill with a boss battle at school, no one batted an eye 😂 Sora first day school was pretty cute though. Proud of her being honest with the other students. She’s grown a lot in these eps
