The 26th episode of the 22nd installment of the popular anime series "PreCure," "You and Idol Pretty Cure," titled "The Heart-Pounding Things Make You Good!" will be broadcast on ABC TV and TV Asahi at 8:30 a.m. on August 3rd.
Kokoro, seeing some kids playing and imitating the idol Pretty Cure, suggests to Uta and the others that they "want to start a fan club." Uta and the others, as well as Tanaka, agree, and they immediately begin work on setting one up. While discussing what kind of fan club it should be, Kokoro remembers the children playing and suggests merchandise such as intercoms and costumes. Other ideas that come up include fans, T-shirts, calendars, and membership cards.
A few days later, the Cure Idols gather at Tanaka's house, which serves as both their office and fan club headquarters, to have their photos taken for their membership cards. They decide to answer questions from fan mail for the fan club newsletter, and the question "What's your favorite proverb?" is read out loud. Kokoro answers that her favorite proverb is "If you love something, you'll become good at it." It's a phrase her father taught her when she was a child practicing dance.
The motif of "You and Idol Pretty Cure" is "idols," and the theme is "Because of you, we can shine and become stronger!". The legendary saviors, Idol Precure, sing, dance, and give "fan service" for "you," whether it's the people they love, the important people, the people who support them, the people next to them, or the people in front of them, and your presence makes Idol Precure shine brightly and strongly.
The cast will include Misato Matsuoka as Cure Idol/Sakura Uta, Minami Takahashi as Cure Ink/Aokaze Nana, Natsumi Takamori as Cure Kyun Kyun/Shiu Kokoro, Yoshino Nanjo as Cure Cure Zukyoon /Purirun, and Miharu Hanai as Cure Kiss/Meloron.
