Aye yo what's up, guys?! Yona here once again and welcome to the last two weeks of The Road to Cure Earth Watchalongs and also, welcome to the second half of 2020 yeet~! Well, as we all know that Healin' Good PreCure had just resumed last Sunday and the best thing for our mates in the Americas and Oceania, the season will be streamed on Crunchyroll! Plus, the recent scans and text translations (shout out to Cure Wiki's Bikki for the latter) regarding Cure Earth's debut make me sooooo freaking excited for her even more and also, the plot twist is very surprising aye?! Well, that would be on my next post.
Before we're moving on, let's finish these last two pre-watchalong special posts as we travel back to 2018 aka the so advanced 15th anniversary of the PreCure series and we have not one, but two mid-season Cures debuting in the same episode! I'm talking about Emiru Aisaki and Ruru Amour aka Cures Macherie and Amour from Hugtto! PreCure.
Emiru is the third grade schooler that became a Cure after Ako Shirabe/Cure Muse from Suite and Aguri Madoka/Cure Ace from Doki Doki!, the very first to do so from planet Earth, and the third mid-season Cure from the blue planet after Itsuki Myoudouin/Cure Sunshine from Heart Catch! and Iona Hikawa/Cure Fortune from Happiness Charge!
Meanwhile, Ruru is the fourth redeemed Cure after Setsuna Higashi/Cure Passion from Fresh!, Ellen Kurokawa/Cure Beat from Suite and Towa Akagi/Cure Scarlet from Go! Princess, and the very first robotic Cure heroine, in which the latter part has a quite nice call back and tribute to two of the Cure series' classic spiritual mahou shoujo predecessors, Toei Animation's Miracle Shoujo Limit-chan and Cutie Honey.
As always in the past pre-watchalong proper posts, here are my top 5 Macherie and Amour moments!
5. Same misunderstanding, different case
Episode 22 with Cures Black and White as special guests, and it quickly reminded me much of episode 8 of Futari wa having the same software with Emiru and Ruru yet with different cases, and that it's okay to be misunderstood at each other and that makes them stronger even more.
4. Concert in the pool
When Hana was on a blink of crippling depression due to George Kurai, our cutie idols came to the rescue for a mini concert for everyone, and to snapped our cheering leader out of her senses and fought back harder.
3. Friendship never ends
Episode 19 was another wonderful moment from these two and when Emiru learned about Ruru being an android, by in which the latter said that someone like her couldn't be a Cure. However, the two decided to be heroines together then we had a first hear on "Friends With You" as the ending for that episode.
2. A twinning maiden debut full of love
Speaking of which, Macherie and Amour's maiden debut was soooo lit and also we had got a first hear of their signature character song which quite reminded me of the fighting BGMs in Symphogear though. Also, I like how Mother Heart splitting the last PreHeart into two all thanks to their wishing of becoming Cures together with a brilliant miracle and it was amazing to see that way.
1. An emotionally timey wimey reunion
The season finale episode got me a lot of feels and the epilogue was all going wibbly wobbly timey wimey since the future had changed 12 years later! That aside, the grown-up Emiru got an emotional reunion with a little Ruru, though the latter hadn't have any memories of them which made me so sad. Anyway, I got emotionally brink up when they sang "Friends With You" again together and it was so touchable to watch at least.
That concludes my top 5 Macherie and Amour moments! What are your favorite moments from them? Comment here, on FB page or on my Twitter @goddessyk13.
