Wonderful Precure Episode 24 Review - An Egg With A Horn
Alright. All nine Kirarin Animals have assembled. What’s next? What’s that? An egg? We’re going to wait for an egg to hatch? Not just any egg? Niko’s egg? Oh boy. Someone should grab a bike and a Pokemon.
But yeah, when all nine Kirarin Animals have assembled, an egg with a horn shows up. Apparently, unicorns come from eggs. It was never what came first, the chicken or the egg, but rather the Niko-sama or the egg. Now it does feel like the second half of the story is taking place how that a new objective has popped up, somewhat. In addition to taking care of Niko’s egg, the Precures are tasked to finding other missing Niko Garden animals now as not all of them have returned and are still trapped in a GaruGaru state. So, the story is practically the same formula-wise even after all the Kirarin Animals have assembled…
I do wonder how long it will take for the egg to hatch. Its appearance has brought about a plethora of questions. Why is Niko in this egg state? Why does it react to Satoru and Daifuku when they both aren’t Precures? Why does it keep going to Iroha’s room? Well, at least it gives the dog duo something to do since fights have been overtaken by the cat duo, specifically Nyammy.
To be honest, I did have neutral feelings towards Mey Mey, but he was annoying in this episode. Niko’s egg popping up has seriously affected his character negatively. He starts getting all selfish in his desire to take care of the egg and even accused Iroha of stealing it when she brought it back from her house. Mey Mey, a thief wouldn’t bring back what they stole. Mey Mey’s desire to take care of it out of selfishness of wanting to be praised when she hatches even got Satoru, who’s usually accepting of Mey Mey, raising an eyebrow. You know your character has gone off the rails when Satoru gives you a stink eye.
Other than that, this episode just feels like the beginning of a possible second half of the show hence why new objectives pop up and why it feels a little slow paced. My only hope is that the dog duo seriously returns back to the action in the fight sequences because Nyammy has been overshadowing them way too much. She’s the one who calmed the GaruGaru Gorilla down. I do wonder if Daifuku and Satoru will become mid-season Cures as them touching Niko’s egg did cause a reaction. It’s going to happen, hopefully. I honestly can’t wait for them to become Precures. What are your thoughts on this episode?
