As for the "Hugtan = Ma Chérie" hypothesis, I think we can safely throw that one out. The Mirai Pad clearly names Aisaki Emiru as Cure Ma Chérie. We know Emiru appears in episode 9 as a classmate of Kotori's. The preview for episode 7 shows Hugtan still as a baby. She isn't going to grow up from baby to sixth-grader in a mere two weeks.

I still think Hugtan might be a de-aged Cure from the world that was destroyed by the Criasu company, but she's not Cure Ma Chérie. I'm not sure she will completely grow up this season really. Bandai have all these Hugtan toys they want to sell, and that would be kinda hampered by having Hugtan grow up.

Harry said in episode 3 that Hugtan could be saved with 8 Mirai Crystals though, and between the five Cures they will have 10 Crystals total eventually, so who knows what might happen yet. I think Macherie will be list before Amour because 3 reasons:
 * 1) List of colors on the Melody Tambourine, like I said.
 * 2) Mirai Pad - List of Cures.jpg According this image (from leaked Mirai Pad), Macherie is listed before Amour.
 * 3) Their Cure names may start to the French phrase "Ma Chérie D'Amour", which "Ma Chérie" standing before "Amour".

This isn't a big problem and I don't want to make it to a serious problem. But when they actually appear (not now), the episode pages, HUGtto! Pretty Cure main page,...etc should list the right thing? I mean, even though it's a duo transformation, it will have a Cure who introduce first, before the other one. After that, the true list will be list in the ending credits and official websites. It's may like why we listed Cure Black before Cure White (if it's the first season and we didn't know about pink Cure always first). However, we can see each Cure have a PreHeart carry bag and their own Mirai Crystals, so we can't know they will do a duo transformation or not.

Yeah, I love your hypothesis and I agree with you. Some people thought Hugtan is Macherie, I just give my opinion about it. That's just the predictions and we can't know what are the true things until the episode airs.
