I also have to admit that when I saw the blue for the first time I immediately thought of an Aikatsu character, but I couldn't think of Himura Asami (I guess that's her name), to be exact, I don't know her name for sure. Thus I mentioned Hikami Sumire, who has a similar hair cut owo.

But as you can see (and read), not only the poses but also the bangs have been copied. Or those poses are just a coincidence, especially since they are really generic japanese poses for "cheery" and "graceful" types. Plus the cure designs are different enough from the Aikatsu girls that they look to have been traced on (And the blue makes a quite different pose as well). The designs also look very Toei-esque and the fact they're found on marchandise makes it very believable. I don't deny the slight possibility of it being a fake, but it's so well done that if it does reveal to be fake, then it will be easily the most impressively accurate leak I've probably ever seen.
