Synopsis[]

The girls meet up at a summer festival. All wear yukatas for the event, and Miyuki even gives Candy a yukata using the Dress Decor. Candy has never been to a festival before, and is excited by all the things to see, do, and eat.

Majorina also comes to the festival when she spots the Pretty Cure and begins following them.

The girls try their hand at a goldfish catching stall, which Reika is very skilled at, having learned a secret technique from her grandfather. Majorina plays, but is disappointed to learn that she can't eat the goldfish.

Next, the girls try the shooting gallery. Miyuki and Candy aim for a stuffed elephant toy, but win nattou gyoza candy instead. Majorina aims for the nattou gyoza candy but the gun misfires, and she is disappointed to win a holiday in Guam instead. Meanwhile, the girls find a sugar sculpture stall, and have them craft a confectionery that looks like Candy.

Candy gets distracted by a display of masks and wanders off, but is mistaken for a toy and put on sale in the ring toss. The girls must pool their money to win her back.

The girls bump into Majorina, who summons Bad End Space and draws Bad End energy from the festivalgoers. The Pretty Cure transform, and Majorina creates a Super Akanbe from a mask, two yoyo water balloons, and a ring toss ring which landed on her head earlier.

The girls fight the Akanbe. Angry that Majorina would ruin Candy's first visit to a festival, the girls assume Princess Form and quickly defeat it with Rainbow Burst, gaining two new Decors.

Changing back to normal, the girls head over to the top of a hill and enjoy the fireworks display. Candy has never seen fireworks before, and is mesmerized by their beauty, like enormous flowers blooming in the sky.

Trivia[]

  • This is the third episode where Candy has been separated from the girls (The other episodes are 12 and 22). Candy also got lost with Miyuki and Yayoi in episode 14.
  • The natto gyoza candy from Osaka appears yet again in this episode.
  • One of the candy sculptures resembles Coffret from Heartcatch Pretty Cure!.
  • The superhero figurine Yayoi wins is the same character as the one on her alarm clock.
  • This episode was omitted in the English dub Glitter Force, possibly due to its heavy focus on Japanese cultural elements, such as the summer festival, people wearing yukatas, and the specific foods served at the festival.
  • When the episode was being written, an unused idea was that Nao might bang a taiko drum, a task traditionally reserved for men, in order to emphasize her tomboyishness and physical strength. In the final episode, it is Nao's father who bangs the taiko drum.[1]
  • Another unused idea was that Yayoi, an artist, might create posters or flyers for the event. Series director Otsuka rejected the idea, believing that it was not original or interesting enough.[1]
