Well, something tells me KiraKira has been waving a giant clue for the next season since the Cure's hobbies and personalities were revealed in January. I could be wrong on what I'm about to say but this giant clue that Toei has been waving under our noses since day one is Aoi. Like yes, we had previous Cures who were idols but their other members never got solo CDs of their own ( Heartcatch could be a good reference because the Cures got paired up for CD singles and right after came Suite: a music themed season ).

And it doesn't help that Toei has been selling KiraKira CDs like hot cakes and that we literally have IDOL PRECURE merch. And then there's the KiraKira live concert, where the seiyuus and OP and ED singers got up and performed like it was an idol concert. It also doesn't help that Inori Minase (Parfait's seiyuu) is a idol/singer herself. Heck Aoi Yuuki (Cook's seiyuu in Kirakira's movie) is a singer and voices Hibiki from Symphogear (which shared so many similarities with Suite). And Nana Mizuki, Blossom's seiyuu, is an idol herself who voiced Tsubasa from Symphogear!!!

And now with Pretty Cure Super Stars ( "Super Stars" can be idols or celebrities ), my gut is saying we'll get an idol theme someday soon. It might not be related to their Cure powers, but sewing can be tied in pretty nicely with idols. Idols needs to get their clothes somehow, so why not  make them yourself? Hence sewing. And as Cures they sew the enemy to death?

I dunno about you guys but the hints are there!!!

And that interview said Bandai researches on what is popular with little girls at that moment in time and the theme is decided from there. I could be wrong but idols are so freaking popular in Japan, I wouldn't be surprised if little girls are a huge fan of idols too.

I want an Idol Precure season because I love music and idols shows are one of my favourite anime genre. And if Toei combined idols with Pretty Cure, I'd be over the moon because two of my favourite genres would be combined!!! However, while I say that, I do hope they hold off from the Idol theme and use it for Suite's tenth anniversary. It would make more sense in my eyes to see an idol themed season be the 10th anniversary of a music themed show. Or even better, idols and dancing work well together...Toei could wait till 2019 for an idol themed show to be the tenth anniversary of Fresh.

That said if what I gathered from these clues end up being correct and Hugtto has an idol theme, then don't freak out. I can understand why everyone would freak out and swear that Hugtto is about to ruin Pretty Cure, but in know way would an idol theme ruin the fights. If Toei does go with an idol theme, then I think they know what they're doing. Toei knows Pretty Cure is a show where girls fight enemies to protect the world. There is no way Toei would get rid of what makes Pretty Cure so iconic just because the theme is idols. Yes, Toei got rid of '''physical" fights in KiraKira but the battles are still there (even though they're really lame)!!! An idol theme in Pretty Cure could in so many directions so I have faith in Toei and believe that if Hugtto or a future season is idol themed, that they know exactly what they're doing. Just for the love of god, no more colorful pop battles >.<
