I want a Cure with mental illness. It would be good considering Japan holds the highest demogrpahics for suicide and self-harm, so a mentally ill Cure would make a positive influence on the show imo. Seeing as they will probably go the idol route with the show, it would make sense for a character with fame to also have some sort of mental illness as even famous people suffer from them. Good or bad. Remember, mental illness DOES NOT EQUAL evil. Stop perpetuating such a harmful narrative. Yes!

Also, why do you think the show will probably be idol-themed? There's so many idol anime aimed at children nowadays (Aikatsu, PriPara, etc) I figure it's only a matter of time before pretty cure does the idol thing too?

Personally, I've been noticing a pattern in the EDs of past Pretty Cure series; the 2nd ED of Maho Girls has the A LA MODE lyric; the following series was Kira Kira Pretty Cure A La Mode; the 2nd ED for A La Mode has english lyrics such as 'angels' and 'idols'; HUGtto has idols (Emiru and Ruru) and angels/angel wings have been a running motif in this series; maybe something in the current ED has something giving hints to the next series? I know someone mentioned earlier the attack involving the heart around the galaxy could be a nod to the next series. Okay. I hope they don't overdo the idol theme if they implement it.
