The AD for this episode was TAP so the animation is a bit weaker. I felt like the directing made up for it - scene transition, angles and unusual shots were very strong imo, talking about stuff like the passing of time shown through all the clock shots, use of shadows and the comedic timing here.

I found episode 1 very strong on the directing as well, with great expressions, while episode 2 had very strong key animation and 3 that wonderful Henshin. So I guess what this episode lacked was an oomph like the other episodes had.

I agree with the rest though, the writing on their interaction was weak and the fight resolved in disappointing levels similar to MTPC. The other episodes so far had a general sense to their fights - dodge the loud, obvious attacker with little defense - confuse the big guy with your speed - fight the heat guy with ice. This villain had a spinning attack but the Precure's response wasn't even tuned to that - they just made a giant sparkly cake and bam - villain defeated. MTPC also had that "just fire our finishers and it will be okey dokey" thing that made their fights so boring.
