One of the better Precure movies in my opinion. As the name suggests it's mainly centered around characters from Hugtto and Futari wa, so this is what you should expect the focus to be on character-wise but it is an all stars movie and every single Precure in the franchise up to Hugtto is featured. In particular there is a lot of development for Nono Hana, so if that's a character you like then you'll probably love this movie.

Quality action, hilarity, emotional moments. You'll generally find this in any Precure movie and this one does all of these things well. Watching all the Precure roll ... around as babies was great. The lengthy scene that goes back through all of the Precure series as they fight is really cool and emotional. There is a CGI element to this movie that might throw off some viewers but I personally thought it looked pretty good not just for CG but in general. You get to see some angles and curves you don't usually see on the drawn material.

Check it out, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Cures from several seasons interact with each other and fight a big bad guy. If you're fond of any of the relevant characters, especially Hana, Saaya, and/or Homare, you'll enjoy the movie. Its structure isn't that different from a typical episode of Precure, it's just longer and has better animation. Watching the Hugttos and the Kirakiras get together was really cute and fun, and the final fight was pretty exciting. The Mahous don't get as much screentime but they're around. The morals about keeping promises are important for anyone to soak in I think. Also the opening track is one of the better ones of ... the franchise in my opinion.

In the end it's a Precure movie. Even if it's not as good as other Precure movies, it's going to be at the quality of or better than many episodes of Precure. And you enjoyed those, right?

A big pile of precure get together and get into fistfights with a grab bag of villains. For a lot of fans of the franchise that's all you should really need to know, it's hard to go wrong with this formula. This one is fairly early on so there aren't as many precure running around as later all stars movies. It does have Tsubomi and Erika though, which are a couple of my favorite precure ever and in this movie they have a leading role.

This one isn't without its problems. The drawing style mismatches Heartcatch characters a bit, can be a little jarring. Characters weren't ... as expressive as I'm used to, Erika didn't feel all that Erikaish. Was kind of weird seeing Yuri sitting around doing nothing while all of the danger was happening, she was precure before Erika and Tsubomi after all but whatever. All I really need to feel satisfied are some good henshin sequences mixed with some kung fu and heartwarming moments and this movie has these things. One of the villains is made of solid gold and has a sweet mustache, pretty awesome. Was funny watching Erika and Tsubomi getting rolled nonstop, they were getting their butts kicked lol. Just don't push your expectations super high and you should enjoy this movie, it's better than a lot of standalone episodes of precure after all.

Politics and warfare from multiple perspectives is already somewhat uncommon in anime. Just that set in the real world is even less common, and adds an interesting layer of entertainment especially if you have an interest in history and geopolitics. This film delivers well for people that enjoy war and politics. Cold war, explosions, nukes, space lasers. Also if you're someone that's interested in military craft this series definitely looks like it was given a lot of care from people who are very enthusiastic about historical aircraft and ships and things of that nature. You could almost say it has "fan service" for fighter jets.

The ... romantic subplot stole from the movie in my opinion, it wasn't really necessary and didn't make it any more entertaining. I also couldn't find a quality copy of it, the copy I watched was downright dreadful in clarity. Could barely see what was going on in some action scenes. Suppose it's better than being "lost" material like the Xevious film. I also have some qualms with its morals though my opinions here are probably unpopular. Definitely worth a watch though, more-so than most anime films I've seen.

When deciding how good a series like Star Twinkle is you've got to think: are you comparing it to other Precure series, or are you comparing it to anime as a whole? I won't sugar coat it, compared to some other Precure series Star Twinkle isn't as good. But in the end it's still Precure. It's fun, it has cute girls, it has action, it's really easygoing and heartwarming and will make you laugh and cry. On the spectrum of the entire medium, Star Twinkle is great.

Hikaru is really cute and it was a lot of fun going on a fifty episode ride with her ... and the other girls. Seeing different planets was really adventurous and fun. Back on earth you get the typical episodes of people resolving their social issues which can be very relatable at times. There were some really awesome villains, Kappard in particular is one of my favorite Precure villains hands down. The man is just so darned handsome, and he uses a freakin lightsaber it's awesome. Most of the finishers were kind of lame in my opinion but the henshin sequences were top notch. Lala is a really cute character that is complemented well by slapstick humor. Lots of random funny episodes, was hilarious watching Madoka's dad get gaslit by a bunch of children. There are a lot of things to like about Star Twinkle, and it's not as if it's the worst Precure series by any means.

I'll say that it might not be the best Precure series to start with. You've got things like Heartcatch and Smile to that end. But if you've already watched some Precure and are looking for more, you could do worse than watch Star Twinkle. You'll definitely enjoy it a lot if you like Hikaru or Lala.

My favorite Precure of the season do cute things, the fight scenes are well-animated, got me to tear up a couple of times. That's all I'm asking for from a Precure movie. If I get those things I am perfectly satisfied and this one delivered. Lots of slapstick with Lala which is the best condition for that character. Some of the constellation forms look great, others look more ridiculous than a clown but I've come to terms with reality. Nice to see the Star Twinkles animated in forms other than their defaults. There's a really good world exploration scene that could pass for an advertisement ... for planet earth.

There's something important we have to discuss though, and that's the character design on the water seijin. The water-themed hunter that played a villainous role. That thing is extremely physically attractive. I want to be its gf or at least have it kill me or something. There are worse ways to die. I'd watch a 48 ep series with that thing as the main character. And that's just talking about its standard form character design, it fights in a really cool way too. The other hunters were of course really awesome but I want to bashfully hold hands with water seijin.

Ichika, Hana, and Hikaru are all in the same seventy minute movie. That'll be good enough for some of you and was good enough for me. This movie isn't much different than a three-parter from the main Star Twinkle series, except it has better production quality and a few cures floating around from previous series. If you're enjoying the Star Twinkle series I don't see any reason why you wouldn't enjoy this movie. The fight scenes are really well animated relative to the series and you get some good character interactions out of it. The only thing that would have made it better is if ... based Kappard showed up.

Unfortunately I didn't have a twinkle stick so I had to use a flashlight when cheering on the Precure while watching. You could probably use a lighter or a glow wand too if you don't have a flashlight lying around. I'm sure your feelings will reach the Precure.

Out of all of the 3-5 minute shorts I've seen, and I've seen a good deal, this is one of my favorites. The characters are extremely cute, the dialogue is hilarious. It's very much worth your time. Monaka might have been the cutest girl in the season, and she's trapped in a tiny short! How sad! Also has some great moments for someone who's a huge fan of Kannagi such as myself, for whatever reason.

Of course you could consider the runtime of this series as a flaw, and in some sense I do as I'd love it if it was at least a ten minute ... series, but on the scale of 3-5 minute shorts this one is one of the best. If that's what you're looking for, as it sometimes is, here you go! On a silver platter! Enjoy!

So there's some ninjas and about half of them are girls and most of those girls are cute. There's some slashing and some gags and a few cool fight scenes. This is one of those things, pretty common with OVAs where it's like if you're looking for something entertaining to occupy an hour of your life this will do the job. There's nothing that particularly stands out about this one, which is fine because that means there's nothing that really makes it bad. I think the final fight in the second episode is pretty cool and was definitely more than I was expecting, you probably ... won't be disappointed.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. When it comes to 80s/90s action OVAs, it's like, just watch it. Worst case scenario you waste an hour of your life which I'm sure you already do plenty. I think this one's mildly above average so give it a go. Yume is pure wife material by the way.

I'm talking about the series as a whole and not just the first seasons. It might seem long but by the end you'll wish there was more.

Some of the dumbest stuff you'll ever see and some of the most advanced comedy you'll ever see. Everything in between. This is a skit show, episodes don't necessarily rely on the content or canon of preceding episodes. There's sitcom style stuff, plenty of parody, occasionally completely serious episodes that remind me of Ghost in the Shell, and episodes that defy any form of categorization. Some of the funniest stuff I've ever seen in my life came out of ... this series. Jokes so sophisticated I can't comprehend how they were written. And of course gags on-tier with the good ol' banana peel, never fails.

All of the characters are good. Even the ones with hideously monstrous breasts. Really rare for a comedy series for me to like all of the characters, which is important as this show is primarily character based comedy. If you don't like cute girls or comedy(freak) then I don't know why you're even on this page get out of here. Otherwise you should love this series.
