User blog comment:GlitterInformer/Pretty Cure Plus and Minus Round 25 - MASTERS OF DISASTER/@comment-37117761-20190920152319

Update:

Kawarino and Cure Blossom Mirage have passed! Now, only 7 villains remain in Phase 3, and only one of these 7 will be the final victor of the phase. I'm hoping it's Dark Pretty Cure.

My vote:

Dark Pretty Cure +1, Cure Moonlight Mirage -1

Kawarino is only BARELY better than Dark Pretty Cure. Dark Pretty Cure is one of my favorite Pretty Cure villains ever. She's an incredibly threatening and powerful villain, one who shines a spotlight on how weak Cure Marine and especially Cure Blossom initially are. And I love her backstory and motivation when it's revealed at the end of Heartcatch. She may be evil and threatening, but she's very tragic at the end of the day.
