I would have to say I have mixed feelings about the new series.

I know many replies indicate liking the character designs, but I have negative opinion about totally repetitive main colors of the five cures with DokiDoki. (Esepcially due to that these five colors are the most used in this series so far). I would say if we really stick to their cure names, Whip/Bunny should use more white and Chocola should use more brown, which would lead to a set of quintet colors.

I do still like that the new Blue and Red cures show to be masculine, most cures from recent gens are feminine IMO.

I'm honestly not sure about using Animals and Sweets as double motives in characters, especially that the series title and cure names both only use sweets and no animals there. I would have expected Sweets and Animals to be used in two different generations so that the motives can be more clear. It's rather like Toei doesn't think Animal names are attractive to young girls (Cure Bunny, Cure Fox etc).
