Line 46:
* [[New Transfer Student]]: Tsubomi at first; later Irene, the foreign exchange student from England who debuts in episode 25, and {{spoiler|Sasori Kousa, the [[Heel Face Turn|Heel Face Turned]] Sasorinna}}.
* [[Nonuniform Uniform]]: Itsuki, like in the original, {{spoiler|but in this version the female uniform she wears in the finale is also different}}.
* [[Original Character]]: [[Genki Girl|Misora Hachimitsu/Cure Honey]], [[The One Guy|Azuki Kitasawa/Cure Chartreuse]], their [[Non -Human Sidekick|Non Human Sidekicks]], and that is just the tip of the iceberg.
* [[Schoolgirl Lesbians]]: Tsubomi and Itsuki eventually become this. On the other hand, Misora also had a schoolgirl lesbian crush on the latter at the start of the story.
* [[Shout Out]]: Various. For one thing, Azuki/Cure Chartreuse is an indirect allusion to the Disney version of [[Peter Pan]], and Itsuki's dialogue {{spoiler|as she mourns over her brother's death}} is directly taken from a scene in the same studio's version of ''[[Cinderella (Disney)|Cinderella]]''.
* [[Sixth Ranger]]: While Azuki/Cure Chartreuse and {{spoiler|Aya/Cure Apricot}} are technically straight examples, Itsuki {{spoiler|is a subversion}}.
* [[Spot of Tea]]: Irene is often seen sipping tea, in particular during this version's opening theme.
* [[Tall, Dark and Snarky]]: Azuki
* [[The Cameo]]: In episodes 35 and 36, [[Restart]] ([[Author Appeal|obviously]]) makes a special appearance, complete with Pe Lanza being the one that has his Heart Flower stolen in episode 36.
* [[The Untwist]]: At first it's suspected that Aya might be Potpourri's Pretty Cure, then Potpourri becomes sure that Itsuki is the one... {{spoiler|And then it turns out to be Aya after all.}}
Line 68:
* [[Moral Event Horizon]]: Sasorina comes dangerously close (and Itsuki even acknowledges it) at the climax of the first act when she tries to delay Itsuki's transformation into Cure Sunshine, thereby threatening Satsuki's life. Unlike Pop Goes My Heart, though, Satsuki is saved at the last second when Potpourri disables Sasorina. It's not the fact she endangered Satsuki's life that almost pushes her over but the way she did it. Nevertheless, she's still sympathetic enough to be purified at the climax of the second act.
* [[Not His Sled]]: As in Pop Goes My Heart, Satsuki's life is threatened, and Sasorina actually goes as far as to tell Itsuki to "either [[Metallica (Music)|jump in the fire, or I'll take you by force]]." However, at the last second, Potpourri pulls a [[Big Damn Heroes]] moment and disables Sasorina long enough for Itsuki to transform into Cure Sunshine for the first time and save her brother from certain death.
* [[Precision F -Strike]]: In her first appearance, after defeating Sasorina, Cure Sunshine says, "If I ever catch you screwing around with a relative again, you're going to Hell, [[This Is TVAll The Tropes Bitch|bitch]]." Later, she calls what she did to Satsuki on the operating table "[[The Abyss|The Miraculous Bitchslap of Life]]" after getting his heart rate steady again her own way.
* [[Three D3D Movie]]
* [[Worst Aid]]: When Satsuki goes into V-tech during the surgery scene at the end of the first act, Itsuki barges into the operating room and performs "The Miraculous Bitchslap of Life" on him, and yes, complete with a PG-rated version of the obligatory [[Cluster F -Bomb]] (including at least one "Goddamn" and multiple "hells" and "damns"). Seriously, that's how the MBL worked in [[The Abyss]]!
 
=== Heartcatch Pretty Cure Coeur contains examples of: ===
Line 77:
** [[Blow You Away]] (Yuna/Cure Ventus)
** [[Green Thumb]] (Ichiyou/Cure Terra)
** [[Light 'Em Up]] (Aoi/Cure Luster)
** [[Making a Splash]] (Ayame/Cure Shiver)
* [[The One Guy]] (Aoi/Cure Luster is the only guy in the Heartbreak Cure team. Naturally, he's Itsuki's counterpart.)
Line 94:
* [[Girls With Guns]]: Here the Cures wield Flower Blasters (created by Shion) as opposed to the original season's Flower Tacts.
* [[Hollywood Nerd]]: Shion is a Type 1, leaning slightly towards Type 2.
* "[[IveI've Got an X And I'm Not Afraid To Use It]]": A frightened Shion's initial response to Momiji and Ibuki's arrival to 2011.
* [[Killed Off for Real]]: Prior to the beginning of the story, the Hanasaki family suffers a car crash that kills {{spoiler|Tsubomi's parents and [[Dead Little Sister|Futaba]]}}.
* [[Meaningful Name]]: Momiji ("maple leaf"; she transforms into Cure Maple), Ibuki ("juniper"; she transforms into Cure Juniper) and Pustynia ("desert" in Russian).
Line 101:
* [[Original Character]]: 75% of the cast is this.
* [[Please Select New City Name]]: Somewhere between the end of the original and the beginning of this one, the town of [[Premiseville|Kibougahana ("Flower of Hope")]] had its name changed to Haganegahana ("Flower of Steel").
* [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]]: Momiji and Ibuki, natch.
* [[Robot Buddy]]: C.Y.P.R.3, a robotic copy of Tsubomi's [[Non -Human Sidekick]] Chypre.
* [[Shout Out]]: It's noticeable that the story borrows many elements from ''[[Mirai Sentai Timeranger]]'' (such as Shion being named after Time Green's civillian identity [[Human Alien|Sion]]) and its ''[[Power Rangers]]'' counterpart ''[[Power Rangers Time Force]]''.
* [[Time Police]]
Line 111:
 
* [[Bittersweet Ending]]
* [[Darker and Edgier]]: This is the kind of story that, if canon, could put ''the entire [[Pretty Cure]] franchise'' under the [[What Do You Mean ItsIt's Not for Kids?]] trope as far as Tokyo is concerned.
* [[Disproportionate Retribution]]: Is it against house rules to support your family, alert your friend's mother when something seems up, or check on your friend to see if she's all right in the middle of her job?
* [[What Do You Mean ItsIt's Not for Kids?]]: Because of the obviously adult thematic involved, it's safe to say it's damn good this isn't canon, because if it was it'd probably be [[The Scrappy|Shintaro Ishihara]]'s answer to a younger [[Pretty Cure]] fan's question, "[[Same Content Different Rating|Why can't I watch Pretty Cure anymore until I'm older?]]" if said fan was living in Tokyo.
* [[You Are Grounded]]: By the end, Haruna's layoff, due to how desperate Yuri was to keep herself and her mother under their current roof, has claimed two casualties, including Yuri herself ''and'' her friend.
