Futari wa Pretty Cure Splash☆Star is the third series in the Pretty Cure franchise. It is preceded by Futari wa Pretty Cure MaX Heart and followed by Yes! Pretty Cure 5.Mai Mishou, a calm and sweet-hearted artist, is returning to her hometown after several years away. She goes to the large tree she used to visit as a child and runs into Saki Hyuuga, an outgoing softball player. Just as they both remember that they once met each other as children in this precise spot, two fairies called Flappy and Choppy come out of nowhere and attach themselves to the girls.The fairies are fleeing from the forces of Dark Fall, an otherworldly group seeking to capture the seven World Fountains that feed the World Tree. The last World Fountain is located somewhere on Earth, and Dark Fall will stop at nothing to find it. To defend themselves from the monsters of Dark Fall, Saki and Mai agree to use the fairies' power and transform into Cure Bloom and Cure Egret: the Legendary Warriors, Pretty Cure.Splash☆Star starts as a near-Expy of the original series, as Toei clearly wanted to continue the Pretty Cure franchise but were concerned about how fans would receive a series that did not include Nagisa and Honoka. Complaints from Moral Guardians had also caused many of the Seinen elements synonymous with Pretty Cure to be toned down: instead of the hard-hitting fisticuffs of Black and White, Bloom and Egret primarily used non-contact magical attacks, flinging bolts of energy around and flying all over the place.However, after time the show finds its feet and develops its own identity. Mai and Saki grow to distinguish their personalities from their predecessors and lookalikes. Bloom and Egret develop unique fighting styles, with Bloom focusing on ground attacks and brute strength, while Egret specialises in agile aerial attacks. The show later adds two Dark Magical Girls as Foils, and a Mid-Season Upgrade that gives a Super Mode to Bloom and Egret, upgrading them to Cure Bright and Cure Windy respectively.Saki and Mai are set to return in the Yes! Pretty Cure 5 sequel series Power of Hope ~PreCure Full Bloom~. |

Team Spirit: Most prominent in the movie where Saki and Mai are trapped in a maze by the movie's Big Bad and must work together to escape, though said spirit is threatened by an argument they had earlier. |

Heroic RRoD: You can make a drinking game from how many times our heroes collapse from exhaustion and strain in this particular series. And in the finale, given the exact source of power the side of good is fighting with, even the entire planet collapses trying to get at the Big Bad. |

Bilingual Bonus: What would have been one for Japanese viewers. In episode 32, while being impersonated by Ms Shitataare, the English teacher, Shinohara-sensei, reads out what's ostensibly a literary passage to the class. In the original Japanese episode, what she actually says — in grammatically impeccable English — is a short summary of the episode's plot up to that point: |

Limited Wardrobe |

comment |
Limited Wardrobe: In contrast to the variously-attired Nagisa and Honoka, Saki and Mai seem to have only two sets of regular street clothes apiece: one spring/summer outfit, and one fall/winter outfit. This is finally averted in the last couple of episodes, as well as in The Movie (with its higher budget). |

Story Arc: The show mostly follows the format of "villain sends Monster of the Week after the Cures, Cures defeat all of the villain's monsters, Cures defeat villain, next villain appears, repeat", but there are two arcs of importance. Episode 14-23 introduces and develops the Kiryuu sisters, culminating in the mid-season finale. (This is despite Dorodoron being the designated villain for most of the arc.) Episode 24 acts as an epilogue, introducing the first Midseason Upgrade. Episodes 41-49 are the finale to the series. |

Elemental Powers: The five minions, aside from Michiru and Kaoru, have powers based on the five elements of Eastern tradition. The Uzainaa that they summon are also based on these elements. This provides foreshadowing, seeing as that Kaoru is wind and Michiru is the moon, neither fitting in with the theme. Karehaan - plants/trees/wood Moerumba - fire Dorodoron - earth Ms. Shitataare - water Kintolesky: gold/metal Every single member of Dark Fall has darkness, referred to as "the power of destruction", as well. |

The Unreveal: Why Akudaikahn doesn't outright destroy Michiru and Kaoru when they have their Heel–Face Turn? Gooyan claims that he doesn't know why and suspects there's must be some kind of plan for that, but then the final arc comes and it left unanswered with how everyone hold no punches in final battle. |

comment |
Boss Rush: Gooyan brings back the five defeated minions in the 40s episodes. All are dispatched with more ease than before. Dual Boss: They attack in pairs. The order is Karehan and Moerumba, Karehan and Dorodoron, Moerumba and Kintolesky, Dorodoron and Shitataare, and Kintolesky and Shitataare. Note that each general gets two chances. |

comment |
Meaningful Name: Pretty Cure and the Kiryuu sisters all have names relating to their Cure personas. All these relations are expressed in sequence near the end of episode 48. Theme Naming: "Flower, bird, wind, moon" is a Japanese idiom that refers to experiencing the beauties of nature and using it to learn about one's self. |

Transformation Sequence |
| | Futari wa Pretty Cure Splash★Star / int_9657fe0f |
comment |
Transformation Sequence: The Non-Serial Movie has an interesting example which averts the usual Stock Footage. After they find each other in the maze, Mai and Saki grasp each other's hands, then stand back-to-back and have a heartfelt conversation. As they talk, they slowly transform into their Cure forms, the outfits simply appearing on them bit by bit as their hairstyles rearrange themselves. Though beautifully and fluidly animated, the normal poses, catch phrases, animation and visual effects are completely absent. Interestingly, the whole process actually takes about as long in real time as the Stock Footage version, so it also implicitly averts Transformation Is a Free Action. |

The final battle's decision is basically boiled down to destroying Dark Fall and watching Michiru and Kaoru expire along with it, or letting Dark Fall destroy the world. Our heroines are hoping the spirits' power is enough to get them through this like before. The Big Bad ends up destroying the world anyway and the Kiryuu sisters are dying twice because of Heroic RRoD from protecting Saki and Mai, and will permanently end that way if not for the fact they're right about the spirits. |

comment |
Sadistic Choice A subtle one; against Michiru and Kaoru, the battle is fought near the Sky Tree. Kaoru aims a blast to Cure Egret when she stands in front of the tree, which is a bad thing as Egret's shield is used more as evasion maneuver. You can see Egret's eyes flicker to her back before she decides to take the blast. Bloom ends up disengaging from Michiru and taking the attack with her own shield. Tired of the Cures always denying him of his honorable fight, Kintolesky threatens to take the battle to the town. The Cures who no longer have the option of Sheathe Your Sword against him finally gives him his fight, and by proxy his death. The final battle's decision is basically boiled down to destroying Dark Fall and watching Michiru and Kaoru expire along with it, or letting Dark Fall destroy the world.

Unlucky Childhood Friend: Kenta's feelings for Saki are implied to go beyond friendship at a few points, but she only has eyes for Mai's brother, Kazuya. In the end of the series, she still hasn't noticed Kenta, and he seems to turn his affection to one of her teammates on the softball team (who was quite clearly crushing on him throughout the series). |

Final Boss Preview: The confrontation with Akudaikaan in episode 23. Akudaikaan No Sells the Cures' attacks, claims that he's not even showing half his power and beats the Cures while never getting up from his throne. While the Cures did fight him again, it turns out Akudaikaan wasn't the final villain... |

Shout-Out |
| | Futari wa Pretty Cure Splash★Star / int_c75df49a |
comment |
Shout-Out: During one of Flappi's failed attempts at confessing his feelings to Choppi, Moop offers the advice, "Never give up! Trust your instincts!" (This might be a case of a Spice Up the Subtitles, though). Kintolesky throws repeated punches at the defecting Kiryuu Sisters with a cry of "ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA!" Maybe it's a bit of a stretch, but doesn't Karehaan look a bit like Kain Highwind? |

Taking You with Me |

comment |
Taking You with Me: Gooyan channels the spirit of Andross in delivering a "taking you with me" line before his defeat. Not effective at all. |

Wonder Twin Powers: Like Nagisa and Honoka before them Saki and Mai can't transform if they are not together, and their finisher attacks also require them to be together. Near the end of the series Michiru and Kaoru can use their full power only when together. |

The End of the World as We Know It: The goal of the antagonists is to create an eternal world of ruin. The show's actual Big Bad doesn't just intend to have Earth destroyed; he wants the universe to be gone. |

World Tree |
| | Futari wa Pretty Cure Splash★Star / int_db126a0b |
comment |
World Tree: The seven fountains protect a version of the World Tree in the mythological sense. Meanwhile, in town, the Sky Tree is a World Tree more in the sense of this trope, and is the location for many key events. The final episode hints that the Sky Tree may actually be a seedling of the World Tree. |

Dramatic High Perching: Ms. Shitataare and Kintolesky menacingly stand on top of a higher ground such as on a roof or a rock before several battles. Michiru and Kaoru enjoy sitting on a rock that extends out of the ocean. |

Battle Aura: Noticeable in the flashes of light, absent in earlier seasons, that appear whenever the Cures land from high heights or are thrown against solid objects. Could possibly be a Don't Try This at Home measure. |

Energetic and Soft-Spoken Duo: Saki and Mai start out as expies of Futari wa Pretty Cure's Nagisa and Honoka, but Saki is far more of a Genki Girl than Nagisa, without as many of the former's Deadpan Snarker and Determined Defeatist tendencies, and Mai is a sensitive artist. |
