Return to Episode 31 (Sub), 26 (Dub) | Return to the Table of Contents | Advance to Episode 33 (Sub)

'''Japanese title: “Our Hearts as One! Pretty Cure’s New Power!!”'''

English title: “A Perfect Nightmare”

The episode starts with a flashback to the end of the last one, where Joker/Rascal traps four of the girls in the Ball of Neglect/Dream Ball. Then, we get the openings. After that, we cut back to Miyuki/Emily, Joker/Rascal, Candy, and Pop. The episode title is added over the first shot in the dub.

Miyuki/Emily demands that Joker/Rascal return her friends, but he refuses, saying they’re having too much fun in the dream world to want to return. Candy disagrees, and Miyuki/Emily says she’ll rescue them by going in the Ball of Neglect/Dream Ball herself. Candy and Pop are shocked, but Joker/Rascal welcomes her in. He warns her that she’ll forget all about the real world, but Miyuki/Emily goes in anyway. As the ball swallows her up, dialogue is added where Rascal says, “Bon voyage!” Also, after Miyuki/Emily disappears, Joker calls her an idiot, while Rascal tells her to “forget to write.”

Candy and Pop scream, but Miyuki/Emily is confident as she goes into the dream world. Miyuki calls for the others to wait for her, while Emily encourages herself. Then, the sub shows the title card.

We cut to the dream world’s version of school. In the sub, we hear the school bell ring before Akane wakes Miyuki up; in the dub, Kelsey spends a longer time waking her up. We then see that the other four are there. On the blackboard, the dub removes Japanese text and adds English text.



Joker/Rascal is angry about the team unlocking the Royal Clock’s power. Committed even further to finding the Miracle Jewel, he teleports away. Pop explains that their powers united summoned the legendary Phoenix and that if they fill up the Décor Décor/Charm Chest once more, the queen will be revived.

We cut to sunset, where the team is looking over a river. In the sub, Miyuki says that today was a wild day and that things may get even tougher, but she’s sure they can overcome any problem together. In the dub, Kelsey says that today got a happy ending, and Emily says that after coming so close to losing her friends, she’s realized just how special the real world is. April says that she missed the all-you-can-eat aspect of the dream world, and the girls discuss which of the foods was their favorite. Then, the episode ends.

Overall: Now this is the big showdown I wanted last episode! I always get excited for episodes where the team gets new attacks because there’s always a good fight. And at last, after many episodes of subpar action, we got a good fight scene! The only problem I have with this episode is that unfortunately, in the dub, Candy’s voice acting was kind of iffy. Sometimes, she did great, but other times, it started to feel like the first few episodes of the dub. I hope Candy gets better next episode. Oh, wait, it isn’t dubbed...

Next time: Pop becomes human and the team participates in a period drama!
