Best of SeiYui Songs in the Pretty Cure Series Part 2: It'll be Fine Tomorrow Right?! (Ashita wa Hareru yo ne?!)

Fresh from watching Go! Princess Pretty Cure episode 41, which centralized about Yui Nanase and her new dream apart from being a future storybook author. Before I get into the second of the Best of SeiYui Songs in the Pretty Cure Series, I'll give some brief impressions about the episode:










自分にしか描けない物語を描いて・・・ 夢の力と、夢を守る事の大切さを伝えたい・・・
I want to draw a story only I can draw... The power of dreams, the importance of protecting those dreams... I want to express those feelings...
- Yui Nanase

WOW FANTASTIC BABY! That was my personal thought for this episode regarding Yui-Yui and I intend to agree on Kragito-kun that it doesn't matter she'll remain a faithful helper to the Princess Cures, but the willpower possessed within her is enough to battle the despair and never ever let her own dream and the dreams of the peeps go with that. Though almost manage to break the despair cage, at least Yui-Yui has got a try to do so and yet this was her third Zetsuborg possession (You see that, my bro Seiji?! I think you might be envied about your dear successor's hidden ability and it looks like your record-breaking stuff will be soon overshadowed! :p). But it's also the first time that a Cure helper is having a internal fight against the darkness with her willpower, in which for a quite longtime fandom supporter like me got a first taste. And oh yeah, kudos to the lovely Haruka Yoshimura for giving us her amazing voice and bringing Yui-Yui into existence!

The first part was full inspiration when Yui-Yui has drawn the Fire Palace and its majestic beacon rainbow back in the Dys Dark-controlled Hope Kingdom, but turns into a big challenge when Minamin brought a poster of the art contest with the theme of “Everyone’s Smiles.” Surely that our brave artsy Cure helper wants to compete and win that contest. Whenever I see Yui-Yui comes up for ideas, then I began to learn that she really reminds me of myself (although I'm into the journalistic field) who is very stressful and thinking too much about the right one for a certain theme. And the cake made by Haru-Haru, it's so sweet, plus the box with Ms. Shamour as the design! Mochizuki-sensei was there (phew, at last!) and got curious a little about our Cure helper. And even though Yui-Yui's looking around the peeps in Noble (Yuuki-kun, Hirano-kun, etc), still never come up any ideas although I laughed about Kokoda’s review in PCLJ (Pretty Cure Live Journal page) that Kanata should be her model for the art contest (dang it, look at dat bodeh!). XD Speaking of him, he can actually ported back to the Hope Kingdom with the Royal Key (and I STILL love his prince outfit!).

Boy, oh boy! Looks like Stop and Freeze wanna have give some more despair, eh? But one of the best things in the episode is when these two twin generals are about to attack some random kids at the garden, then it’s time for Yui-Yui to step in because of course she’s the helper of the Princess Cures, so her job is also to protect everybody’s dreams from Dys Dark, by taking up the hit for the kids. I was so grinned about Yui-Yui trying to keep that keyhole before it took for a closure. I think this was the toughest moment for Yui-Yui so far in the season. The part when she was almost losing hope while trapped in the dark, I was totally like “Dang it! Don’t give up, Yui-Yui! You can do it!!!” And all of the sudden, Yui-Yui was called by her Cure partners, stood up and attempted to break the cage using her willpower. But like I mentioned that the Cure helper herself has an internal fight against the despair and darkness within, in which the five past Cure helpers from Earth didn't have (I’m still looking at you, Seiji and even Kaoruko-obachan aka Cure Flower!).

I love what Yui-Yui has said, “What I want to draw… Only I can draw it!” Meaning, she wants to make something that only her can do and that is about the story about the Princess Cures and their heroics with the power of dreams. And I was so happy for Yui-Yui that she managed to resist the darkness with her own will and of course, Flora and her team… Her Cure partners, became her strength in times of distress in which, like I mentioned in this brief review: this has never been done with Miyuki Chinen, Kaoru-kun, Flower, Sebastian or Seiji before, only Yui-Yui has this and that my gosh! Anyways, after saving for the third time seems that Mermaid cited Yui-Yui for having that internal fight and Twinkle was wowed at her too. And so do I being a huge fan of the youngest Pretty Cure helper from Earth in this amazing mahou shoujo anime franchise in which I can proud of.

Wow, the obra maestra at the episode’s end! Such a beautiful painting and very colorful… the Rainbow of Dreams, emphasizes about the fighting for everyone’s dreams no matter what. I must say “omedeto gozaimasu” to Yui-Yui and again, praised to Yoshimura for her cute voice (both the actual and the singing) plus those two anime directors from my home country the Philippines, Francis Caneda and Alice Nario, for making this episode into another breath-taking and mind-blowing one in GPPC! *sighs* My gosh, it looks like Yui-Yui will now break Seiji’s record of 36 episodes in a Cure season because judging from the episode 42 preview, she's STILL there and kicking, making a tie between the two Cure helpers for now! And from episode 43 to the finale, welp, Yui-Yui will have been with 40 or more episodes! Dammit, I’m started to miss her so much! :/ But I think if Mahou Tsukai Pretty Cure! would have a Cure helper from Earth, maybe he/she would exceed Seiji’s and Yui-Yui’s record of episode appearances if ever.

Something tells me that Yui-Yui and Dyspear have in common, which made me shock. And something also tells me that these two had possible connections (only time will tell if these stuff are wrong) because for me, Yui-Yui’s existence was just a mystery and so as Dyspear. I’d be surprised if the witch would have a "Luke, I'm your father" moment. Meanwhile for Mochizuki-sensei and Shirogane-san, something tells me that they'd have a lot questions to Haru-Haru and co about the so-called "rumored Princesses" within the finale arc (oh crap, it’s like Fresh and Doki Doki all over again! :o ). Of course, they'd affect their final all-out war vs Dys Dark as well as Yui-Yui's Cure helper duty.

Alright back to the usual drill, just so know that the Go! Princess Pretty Cure Vocal Album 2: ~For My Dream~ has released a month ago and I knew that our favorite Earthling ally of the Princess Cures gets a character song. Interestingly, "Ashita wa Hareru yo ne (It'll be Fine Tomorrow Right)?!" was done by Yu Shimamura and Haruka Yoshimura, the voicing gals who're behind our blooming Cure leader, Haruka "Cure Flora" Haruno; and our youngest Cure helper from Earth in the whole entire Pretty Cure Series anime so far, Yui Nanase.

As before we say "farewell" to the GPPC season, let's get listened this too amazing song first from our blooming Flora and her extraordinary yet resourcing roommate, friend and Earthling helper Yui-Yui!
