The first part of the show before the change to Narita Yoshimi is rougher than the rest, but there's still some gems like the episode where Minori runs away
Even in these early episodes you can see what would become a contender for best supporting casts in all of cure |

I didn't know the show switched writers like that.

Overall, Splash Star feels like a refinement of the formula set down in Futari wa and Max Heart. There was clearly some trepidation about straying too far from the original characters (when I first saw the Splash Star cures, I thought they were design updates for Black and White), and I don’t think Saki and Mai are quite as strong of characters and Nagisa and Honoka, but everything about it just works more smoothly than the original. Even the mascot characters; they do still use that grating Mascot Voice that we wouldn’t be rid of until Fresh Precure, but Flappy and Choppy are worlds less irritating than Mepple, Mipple, and Pollun.
Also, I feel like this season is really the origin of the comparison people tend to make to Dragonball Z. It doesn’t make much sense in general, but the magic light effects that the Splash Star girls use really does feel a bit like the way ki is used in DBZ. |
