Quite frankly I didn't pay as much attention to Smile because I started getting more into it when DokiDoki premiered, which is unfortunate now that I think about it. I'm sure if I were more into it when Smile was on the air, I would have felt the same way I did when KiraKira was on because of the sheer volume of main Cures. That being said, I think they at least tried with the Smile Cures.

I just read that Papple is also based on a comedienne like Gelos is. I forgot her name already (XD) but part of her act involves her carrying that big '80s-era phone like Papple does when she orders an Oshimaida.

As for the character development, I unfortunately do see #2 happening more likely than the first two. I don't see them throwing Harry under the bus that many times, especially with that implication of him once being involved with Criasu, and Hugtan's seems too important to the plot to not get a whole lot of attention as well. I do hope Saaya and Homare get more development, but I don't know if it'll be enough by the time it ends. I'm sure we'll have one or two of those mini-arcs involving a character in each episode.
