At the moment, Aiwarn is the only one of them who has a personality. Tenjo was cool at the beginning of the series, but then she stopped being the cool tactician and just became a boring version of Aiwarn. I agree. I actually think Kappard is the most interesting at the moment, as Aiwan...lets face it, will most likely be defeated by the cures next episode. Tenjo is pretty boring. I feel like the series struggles with the villians more than anything else, as well as other characters (cough cough, Elena)  Kappard and Aiwan (hey at least she's getting there) are the ones that I feel have personality or have something interesting in them, Kappard possibly lost his homeplanet by the Nottoreis (hinted at ep. 11) and Aiwan still not forgetting her so-so relationship with Bakenyan. Tenjo, like you guys said, is boring. Same with Garuoga, he literally does nothing and I hope he acts right now instead of appearing in front of the cures in the 30-40 upcoming episodes like Listol.

I also do hope for Darknest to not end up as a Noir 2.0 and instead be an interesting villain. Not a #1 villain that stands out but at least an interesting one at some point who has an actual reason for him to become evil in the first place. That's true. I forgot Garuga existed, and the most Darknest has said is "Get the princess star color pens." At least Listol had a interesting backstory and had a personality.

I agree, Noir turned into his super dark form because...he wanted Lumiere to only bake sweets for him. And I'm not even sure we're going to get a backstory for Darknest, as the characters this season are so far, not the strongest. Hikaru is okay, Lala is cute, Madoka has had some development, Yuni is the sixth ranger, but still as gotten pretty good development, and Elena got 1 episode where she had development. 1.  True, the characters, including the cures, have basically likeable and/or interesting personalities but with few developments at hand. Hikaru, like you said, is okay, not the best main lead but still has some points for her not to thankfully end up in Megumi and Ichika's path. Lala is effectively adorable with a relatable personality at the start but is slowly being pushed aside. Madoka, depsite her lack of screen time, has had some development and personality that is a bit original in her case.

As for Elena, I mean...don't get me wrong her character is not bad but the way she's being handled in the season is not going well for her. Yuni's debut, I'll admit is too early, but she has been given a good backstory for her, let alone her personality.

So basically, the characters in Star Twinkle are more to be rated as 7.5 or 8/10??? Remember who the audiences are. Precure main targets are pre-school, kindergardens and 6 to 12 years old girls. They appease the parents with values, customs, respect for elders and authorities and simple yet affordable and beautiful decorations. Most conflicts end in 1 episode with a few pushed to the second and third. Characters like Erika, Miyuki and Reika are pretty popular because they likable, goofy and very friendly, something little girls can relate to.
