Maria Naganawa & Hayate Matsuda："Wonderful Pretty Cure!" the Movie: "Even though she was acting all tsundere!" Komugi and Yuki's bond is "precious"

A stage greeting to commemorate the release of the movie version of the 21st installment of the popular anime "PreCure" series, "Wonderful PreCure!", titled "Wonderful PreCure! The Movie! A Thrilling Adventure in the Game World!", was held on September 14th at Marunouchi TOEI (Chuo Ward, Tokyo), with appearances by Maria Naganawa, who plays Cure Wonderful/Inukai Komugi, and Hayate Matsuda, who plays Cure Nyami/Nekoyashiki Yuki. One of the highlights of the movie is the scene where Komugi and Yuki cooperate in the game world, and Matsuda commented, "They join forces. Even though they were so prickly at the time! The relationship between the two is endearing."

Naganawa said, "I love how Yuki's bond with her deepens and she gets embarrassed, it's so precious!" and added, "There was so much love in the film that I couldn't help but shed tears. I think the love will grow even more, so I hope everyone will support us with their love!"

Also appearing on stage to greet the audience were Tanezaki Atsumi, who plays Cure Friendy/Inukai Iroha, Ueda Reina, who plays Curer Lilian/Nekoyashiki Mayu, Terashima Takuma, who plays Usayama Satoru, and guest voice actors JaruJaru, the comedy duo who played Ponta and Pokota.

In the film, Komugi and Iroha become obsessed with the popular game "Doki Doki Tanukingdom" and are suddenly sucked into the game's world. PreCure from the 20th film "Sky Wide! PreCure" and the 13th film "Maho Girls PreCure!" also appear. The film is directed by Miyahara Naoki and written by Kato Yoichi. It was released on September 13th.

The motif of "Wonderful Precure!" is "animals" and the keyword is "Everyone's friends! Wonderful!". Set in Animal Town, a city where animals and humans live together in harmony, the show depicts the deep bonds that form between animals and humans, such as dogs and their owners, and cats and their owners, and interactions that transcend species. It is also the first in the series, which began in 2004, to feature a "dog Precure", which has been a hot topic. It airs every Sunday at 8:30 am on ABC TV and TV Asahi.
