Tsubomi has to fight her way to passing the final test while the others loved their way through them very quickly. Next episode is going to be really good.

Nice episode, but I was hoping the fight against themselves would be somewhat longer.
Let's see how Tsubomi is gonna pass the test.

"I love everything about myself."
You are my hero this week, Marin.

It is understandable that Tsubomi has a strong negative feeling than anyone else in the team. So her negative copy should be the strongest among them and stronger than her positive self, this is the right direction to go. I liked it.

The shadow versions are so cool! XD It was a waste that they were defeated so fast, though.

Next week we'll probably see Tsubomu being hit HARD until she can accept and overcome eveything - mainly her past/negative side - about herself. Anyway, wasn't her Shadow supposed to wear glasses? D:

So the trick was to accept the weak side of your Heart? Loved these adults versions ^^
Also, it's quite classic for the main heroine to have the most difficulties to change herself... meaning she's certainly be the strongest after that :)

Well, Tsubomi hasn't had her heart flower taken away like Erika or Itsuki. And Yuri didn't have hers for awhile. So, while they overcame their weaknesses, Tsubomi didn't have the same experince.

Wow, the evil forms should hurry up and replace the Precure.
They are about 5 times sexier.

Most pointless start of the episode I've ever seen ._.'

The fight with the shadows should've been longer (did I mention how sexy they were though? they need their own show), but Marine was my favorite in this episode ^-^

lmao They've already trained in that heart palace before, and it's the equivalent of dbz Mr. Popo's flying time machine building. They are gonna train and power up alright.

In retrospect i like the fact that the fights were short: it clearly goes to show what tremendous growth the girls went through, not only as Precure but as people as well. The concept of accepting your dark side instead of running away from it or suppressing it is nothing new, but the great execution made each Precure embracing her Mirror Image a genuinely touching moment (Erika's in particular was beautiful).

I somewhat expected Tsubomi to have more trouble than the other three: she's been called the weakest Precure in history, after all.

Probably the episode that will makes me like Marine honestly. I always thought of her as kind of annoying but that fight scene really touched me!

Why is it that evil versions always look much cooler and/or hotter than the original? First it randomly rains plot development from the sky, which was kind of weird. But the test of character was actually very well done. I figured what the solution would be, but it was still very impactful. Moonlight's speech made me tear up again, and I cheered at Marine's awesome choice of words! But I have to say, it is an excellent cliffhanger ot see Tsubomi struggling like that. I full expect to ride another feels train next episode.

I think "Shadow Moonlight" had the voice of Dark Precure.

Heartcatch really does have some nice imagery.

When the Precures first arrived at the Mirage Palace, I initially thought it would go the Precure 5 route and have them fight their mirrored clones. Well, I was right, but that fight ended up happening on their second visit.

Interestingly, instead of outright defeating their inner negativity, Heartcatch went the route of recognizing and dealing with their inner doubts and issues. I like Heartcatch's approach, where you can't always brute force your problems, especially when you're problems are internal in nature. However, while Tsubomi helped the other three with their issues, Tsubomi herself never quite dealt with her own issues of changing her self-image and improving her self-confidence. Erika kind of helped in the beginning, but that was amidst a hurricane of sudden developments, not including the abrupt introduction of magical girl transformations. In retrospect, Tsubomi is somewhat impulsive, and at times would be the first to throw a punch in situations that could have used better planning. I suppose it makes sense that she ends up falling behind everyone else during this final trial.
