Up until episode 45, it was a basic good kingdom vs. evil empire story. With very little in the way of major plot developments, we had a lot more time to see the Cures develop and interact with each other. It also helped that all 5 Cures were introduced early on, so the rest of the series could focus on their interactions and development.
