On November 27th, it was revealed that the title of the 23rd installment of the popular anime series "Pretty Cure" will be "Detective Pretty Cure!". The "Pretty Cure" series has a history of evolving and changing without being bound by conventional wisdom. What kind of work will "Detective Pretty Cure!" be?
The "PreCure" series began with the first installment, "Futari wa Pretty Cure," in February 2004, and has since released works with a variety of motifs, including "flowers," "music," "princesses," "wizards," "sweets," and "cooking."
In recent years, the 20th series, "Soaring Sky! Pretty Cure," introduced "Male PreCure" and "New Adult PreCure," while the 21st series, "Wonderful PreCure!", featured animals as its motif, including "Dog PreCure" and "Cat PreCure."
