User blog:GlitterInformer/Doki Doki! Pretty Cure/Glitter Force Doki Doki SDC: Episode 9 (Sub), 7 (Dub)

Episodes 7 &amp; 8 (Sub), 6 (Dub) | Table of Contents

Japanese title: "All Messed Up! Ai-chan Goes to School!!"

English title: "Mis-Adventures in Babysitting"

To nobody’s surprise, Ira teleports away in anger and the captains regain their Psyches. As Ai/Dina flies into Heart’s arms, Sword/Spade asks where the super speed came from. Rosetta/Clover tells her that it came from Ai/Dina. Cure Rosetta says that Ai’s powers are beyond imagination; Glitter Clover says that it’s clear that Dina is no ordinary baby, even though it was already clear due to the wings.

After the group de-transforms, Rikka/Rachel and Mana/Maya walk home. Mana/Maya is carrying Ai/Dina’s bed. In the sub, Rikka asks what happened to the sports clubs and Mana says they made up; in the dub, Rachel says she never wants to see a soccer ball or baseball again. Mana/Maya says that she’s exhausted. Then, Rikka/Rachel complains about Joe/Johnny forcing them to take care of Ai/Dina and Mana/Maya agrees that the guy is no good. Then, the two hear the fairies/pixies talking in their sleep. They’re sleeping in the baby bed with Ai/Dina, and she’s biting Lance’s ear once again. Mana/Maya remarks that the fairies/pixies worked hard today. The episode ends with the two girls staring in admiration at all of the occupants of the baby bed.

Overall: This episode was quite good. I’m glad that the fairies/pixies are getting more screen time, as they sorely deserve it. Plus, I’m glad to see that all four warriors are continuing to equally contribute to the fight, even if this episode only focused on Mana/Maya and Rikka/Rachel. The only problem I had with this episode is Joe/Johnny. I’ve rambled plenty about him before, so I’ll keep it brief, but I really, really don’t like that guy.

Before we go, I’ve got one quick question for Saban. Why did you keep this episode in the dub? Nothing plot important happened in it. It would have been much better if episodes 6, 7, and 8 had been entirely uncut because at least important things happened in them. Plus, Johnny might have actually seemed like a decent person.

Next episode: Makoto/Mackenzie transfers into the same school as Mana/Maya and Rikka/Rachel…

But first: I’m finally going to review Pretty Cure All Stars New Stage 2!
