twitter convo

I spend between 20 and 100 hours on each season and how their backstory after their series goes
HaCha is pretty messed up in a wholly different way than Doki
Something like Yes 5 or Smile, just much more pronounced in the "everyone has a shitty life" way
Like, Hime is forced into an arranged marriage with a guy she hates and that hates her so she spends every day, for years, alone in a castle, she is not allowed to go out, not allowed to do chores, has no one to love, the servants avoid her because the master has it out for them
Basically, she is trapped like a canary in a cage, waiting to die
The pink Cure ended up working in a cabaret club to pay the bills and she's grown to numb to actual affection that she's incapable of not pretending to be always happy and smiley-face when she's just cold and depressed on the inside
Honey got scouted into being a TV personality for a cooking show, the shop flopped and it took down the popularity of her store with it she still works in her store and makes ends meet but she doesn't really have contact to anyone from her precure days anymore
Iona ends up trying to be like Reika but stops after she asks her sister for help on a job and her sister gets so hurt that she ends up in a wheel chair and will never walk again
basically, Iona dragged her sister into Reika's line of work and got her hurt
Iona is a hollow shell after that, caring for Maria day in day out, having no personal life whatsoever
the four of them all share the fact that outside of Iona, they stopped being 'precure' after they start high school
so compared to everyone else, they'd be REALLY weak
They would be around 23-25 years old at this point and haven't transformed in 8~ years
so HaCha would be the exact opposite of Doki
They would be the second oldest team but they would be on the level of Suite at most in power
all of that is compounded that they're all really numb to the idea of romance
Megumi pretends to like dudes for a living but is emotionally a zombie because of it
Hime was forced to marry into a loveless marriage
Yuko has no time to think about romance and since she's a failed celeb, most people won't want to try with her anyway
And Iona just doesn't have the capacity to even think about being in a relationship after she ruined her sister's life
in that way, haCha is probably the most interesting
GoPri is the least interesting
