Not a fan of the designs but I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Even the designs for Heartcatch didn't look very good in the early stages

Love the names.
And I like the simplicity of the designs.
The costumes look like school/idol uniforms. Think Aikatsu.
No spats though..

I agree--it really does remind me a lot of the idol singer costume designs from the likes of AKB0048, Aikatsu, Love Live and Idolm@aster.

Heartcatch designs were quite awesome. These are the worst yet.

These designs look too much like they're going to sing on stage as idols. I think they are indeed sub-par.

People say "These designs are the worst, they are so bland" etc for every new Precure series.

Being different =/= better. The Heartcatch designs just didn't fit the tone of the franchise, while these kinds of designs do.

Man, its like I'm in a time-warp!

Almost like the same thing has been said about the first look at every new Precure's designs!

OH WAIT IT HAS.

Jesus christ guys.

Sorry I had an opinion.

I don't care much for the "Prekatsu" designs, but I'm sure that the rest of the series will be better.

Or maybe we could just wait for more information before leaping to ridiculous conclusions.

What do you mean "ridiculous conclusions"?
