User blog:GlitterInformer/Smile Pretty Cure!/Glitter Force SDC: Episode 3

Japanese title: Rock, Paper, Scissors ♪ ' Cure Peace!! '

' English title: We Want Peace! Glitter Peace! '

 Both versions start with Miyuki/Emily doing a recap. The opening themes play as usual. Then, the story begins! In the sub, Akane tells Miyuki that her mom’s omelettes are the best, and Miyuki says she’ll tell her. In the dub, Kelsey wonders how they’ll convince the others they’re part of the Glitter Force, and Emily proposes that they show them what the Glitter Charms can do. Miyuki/Emily puts the Cure Décor/Glitter Charm from last episode in her Smile/Glitter Pact, and a rose bouquet comes out. Akane is shocked that the Smile Pact can do that first, while Kelsey just wonders if Emily’s going to tell them about the Glitter Pact before of after she tells them the big bad wolf is real.

 After Candy explains the importance of the Cure Décors/Glitter Charms, Miyuki lectures Akane about their mission to collect the Cure Décors, and Akane says that becoming a Pretty Cure one day before her has gotten to her head. In the dub, Emily says that that it’s up to the Glitter Force to save Jubiland, and Kelsey says that doesn’t sound crazy at all.

 Then, Miyuki/Emily and Akane/Kelsey notice that Yayoi/Lily is drawing. Miyuki/Emily complements her on her drawing, yelling in the sub and just saying it in the dub. In both versions, Yayoi/Lily gets embarrassed and covers up her drawing. Miyuki/Emily and Akane/Kelsey tell her that her drawing is really good.



 In the sub, Miyuki asks if she’s drawing original characters. Yayoi says she likes drawing pictures like that, and that it’s childish. Miyuki says it isn’t, and that she likes picture books, and Akane says Yayoi has talent. In the dub, Emily asks if she’s drawing a self-portrait. Lily says it’s a picture of herself as a superhero, and it’s pretty dumb. Emily thinks everyone would find it cool to be a superhero, and Kelsey drops a hint that Lily ''is. ''Miyuki/Emily and Akane/Kelsey say Yayoi/Lily should show off her drawings. Yayoi/Lily refuses. She thinks everyone would make fun of her. She begs the two not to tell anyone and runs away.

 In the sub, the title card appears before switching to the next scene. In the dub, it just goes straight to it. We’re in the Bad End Kingdom/Shadow Realm. Wolfrun/Ulric is walking down the hall, mad at the Pretty Cure/Glitter Force. Behind him, we see another one of the villians: a red monster that looks like a traditional Japanese demon (oni).

 Name Change:  In the sub, this demon monster is Akaoni (which means Red Demon, by the way). In the dub, he’s Brute. As a side note, Akaoni ends his sentences with “oni,” but Brute doesn’t end his sentences with anything.

 Wolfrun/Ulric tells Akaoni/Brute to keep down the noise, as he’s hammering something. The latter finishes his iron club with remarkable timing (just as Wolfrun/Ulric came around, in fact!). Akaoni/Brute says that Wolfrun/Ulric is useless and goes down to defeat the heroines himself. As he walks away, the dub adds a line, with Ulric saying, “Good luck with that, braniac.”

 We cut to the classroom. Reika/Chloe (the blue one) tells the class to quiet down, because they have to focus on the Clean School Grounds Week poster competition, or as it’s called in Glitter Force, the Cleanup Club’s annual poster competition. Chloe sounds much more annoyed with the class than her Japanese counterpart. In the sub, Reika asks who wants to draw the poster, and in the dub, Chloe asks if they really want to be the only class without a poster. Both these lines leave the class silent.

 In the sub, a boy asks, “Who cares?” Nao (the green one) says, “You do it then,’” and the guy refuses. In the dub, he says it’s too much homework. April (Nao’s English counterpart) says he never does any homework, and he mutters, “Busted!”

 The teacher tells the class they have to decide today, and Reika/Chloe asks for nominations. Miyuki/Emily nominates Yayoi/Lily, and Akane/Kelsey seconds her. Yayoi/Lily is shocked and embarrassed. There are no other nominations. With nobody else to do the job, Yayoi/Lily agrees.

 After class, Yayoi/Lily asks the other two why they nominated her. Lily seems to be more resentful of it than Yayoi; Yayoi asks, “Why did you nominate me?” while Lily asks, “Why’d you have to go and nominate me?” Miyuki/Emily and Akane/Kelsey tell her that she’s a good artist and that she’ll definitely win (Kelsey adds a lame pun about Lily “cleaning up the competition”).

 Yayoi/Lily says that they don’t know the real situation. We cut to a weird green-haired guy: the president of the art club.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"> Name Change:  The president is called Soga in the original. In the dub, he’s Cornelius.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"> In the sub, Soga yells, “ART GOES KABOOM!!” In the dub, he shouts, “ANOTHER MASTERPIECE!!” which makes more sense. Yayoi says Soga has won the art contest before, while Lily says Cornelius is a genius who gets his art shown in galleries. Then we cut to a girl drawing cartoons on the blackboard.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"> Name Change:  In the sub, she’s referred to as Mikawa-san, so “Mikawa” is probably her family name. In the dub, she’s Naomi.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"> In the sub, Yayoi says Mikawa is good at drawing girls’ manga. In the dub, Lily just says Naomi is good at comics, and adds that she gives lessons during lunch. Then, we cut to a third contender: a long-haired boy drawing a portrait.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"> Name Change:  In the sub, he’s called Narushima-kun (again, the honorific probably means that’s his family name). In the dub, he’s Byron.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"> In the sub, Yayoi says that Narushima makes girls look really cute in portraits. In the dub, Lily says Byron’s portraits are really good, and that he’s the most popular boy in school. While in the sub, a crowd of girls beg Narushima to draw them, in the dub, Lily says that Byron’s hair is way better than hers, or Emily’s. Emily agrees.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"> Akane/Kelsey concedes that there is some stiff competition. Yayoi/Lily says that there’s no way she’ll win, but Miyuki/Emily tells her that she should at least try. In the sub, Yayoi says that she’s a crybaby who’s good at nothing and can’t handle pressure. In the dub, Lily says it’s better not to try than to end up in last place. Akane/Kelsey says that maybe they shouldn’t make her do it, and goes to tell the teacher that Yayoi/Lily isn’t doing it. In the sub, she’s more polite about it. Akane says they shouldn’t have forced her into it and goes to say she’s not doing it, while Kelsey says that Lily might not be ready for it yet and goes to say she’s backing out.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"> Miyuki/Emily stops her. In the sub, Miyuki says that she read in a picture book once that pictures are mirrors of the heart. Even though she’s a crybaby, Yayoi is kind and considerate, and Miyuki thinks that’s why she can draw so well. In the dub, Emily tells Lily to listen to her heart. Lily says, “I should quit?” and Emily tells her to think of it as a picture instead of a poster in a contest. After a bit, Yayoi/Lily agrees to give it a try. Miyuki/Emily and Akane/Kelsey offer to help, and Yayoi/Lily blushes and tears up, which they notice.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"> Outside the building, Miyuki/Emily is posing for Yayoi/Lily. In the dub, as Emily struggles to keep in position, Lily tells her to grind her teeth less. Candy pops out and reminds Miyuki/Emily of her superhero responsibilities. Unfortunately, Yayoi/Lily notices candy. In the sub, Yayoi calls Candy a piglet, while in the dub, Lily calls Candy a stuffed bear. In both versions, Candy retaliates. When Miyuki/Emily covers up Candy’s mouth to keep her from talking, Yayoi/Lily decides to draw Candy, too.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"> Akane/Kelsey runs back with an afternoon snack. In the sub, Miyuki refers to the food as okonomiyaki. In the dub, Emily asks what it is, and Kelsey says it’s like Japanese pizza. Points for Japanese culture! Miyuki/Emily asks where she got it, and Akane/Kelsey says her family runs a restaurant and they made it there.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"> After they finish eating, Yayoi/Lily tells Miyuki/Emily to lift her hand higher, and Akane/Kelsey helps her out. In the sub, when Akane lifts Miyuki’s hand, Miyuki says it hurts (though why I wouldn’t know; it looks completely within normal range of movement to me). In the dub, Emily worries that she’s going to fall, and Kelsey tickles her. Reika/Chloe watches this and smiles.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"> We see Yayoi/Lily painting her drawing at night and in class the next day. In the sub, nobody speaks during this. In the dub, Lily thinks that Emily was right that she wouldn’t win if she didn’t try, but adds that she wouldn’t lose, either. Emily also says, “Nice job, Lily!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"> After school, Yayoi/Lily has finally finished her poster. The Japanese text on the poster is changed to English in the dub, and the English text in the original version is erased.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:107%;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin;mso-fareast-font-family:Calibri;mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin;mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin;mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi;mso-ansi-language:EN-US;mso-fareast-language: EN-US;mso-bidi-language:AR-SA;mso-no-proof:yes">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in">And the English version:
