So another anime season is wrapping up and anyone who regularly follows the blog and podcast will know that means we have to do the Case Closed Reviews as shows end. We have to do them quickly because the new shows for the SWAT reviews are right around the corner. But there are a few shows that I watch on my own that have wrapped up recently. Since Kate did not watch them I don’t feel like recording a solo Case Closed Review but I do feel like I should put down my finals thoughts in some format. I decided to put out this post just in case anyone was curious how these shows turned out in the end.

No Case Too Small: The Cases of Cure Detective
The cases in question are
episode 2 of HappinessCharge PreCure!
and episode 9 of Yes! PreCure 5 GoGo!

Ever since we watched HeartCatch PreCure! Kate and I have been a big fans of the PreCure franchise. There have been some distinct ups and downs with a good deal in between from what we have seen. Much like Gundam it a series we will always check it out but not necessarily like it. So far nothing has surpassed the high heights of HeartCatch. But if any show has had the potential to be only an equal level with the best Precure series it just might be HappinessCharge. It has much of the same staff as HeartCatch with a good deal of the same heart. Also it has one other secret weapon: Detective PreCure!
Ohoho HappinessCharge you know how to win my heart! Though I’m predisposed to love PreCure. Still, taking a stab at detective tropes is just another way to add to the fun. Then upon doing our own investigation (HA!) we found that this was not the first time in the franchise detectives have taken center stage.
