Anime / Yes! Pretty Cure 5 GoGo!

Following

After upgrading their powers, the Pretty Cure 5 team is recruited to protect the mysterious Cure Rose Garden from Eternal, an evil museum that steals and stockpiles priceless treasures from across the universe. To do this, the Pretty Cure have to track down the four missing rulers of the kingdoms that neighbour the Kingdom of Palmier, as they hold the four keys that unlock the path to the Cure Rose Garden.

Along with new mascot creature Syrup, an orange flying penguin mailman, the Pretty Cure get a Sixth Ranger:

• Milky Rose, Kurumi Mimino, an arrogant Ace and New Transfer Student. As Milky Rose, she is a powerful Aloof Ally who draws her strength from a separate Power Rose from the other Cures.

This program provides examples of:

• Battle in the Rain: Episode 10 of Go Go. And the girls actually do slip on the wet ground a few times.
• Borrowed Catch Phrase: GoGo!'s final episode ending had the whole team shout "Kettei!" together with Nozomi.
• Brainwashed and Crazy: Coco in the Go Go movie is brainwashed by Mushiban and forced to fight Cure Dream.
• Catchphrase Insult: In GoGo!, the Director's go-to insult is saying something "has no value", because he obsessively categorizes everything as either valuable or worthless.
• Chekhov's Gun: In episode 32 of Go Go, Precure and Milky Rose get shrunk, and there's a scene where Nozomi rushes to a piece of candy on the ground. She later uses it to get the ants away from the group.
• Comic-Book Time: Used to avoid the question of why Precure (and everyone else) seem to have been held back a year in school in Go Go.
• Flight of Romance: Syrup takes Urara flying in episode 40 of Go Go.
• Mouse World: Episode 32 of Go Go, where Mucardia shrinks the girls.
• Near-Villain Victory: In the second season, there are two occasions:
  • Mucardia managed to trap Nozomi, Rin, Urara and Komachi in his rigged game of Five de Chance, and then cornered Karen into a game she really sucks at: Coin Toss. But then he gets impatient and grabs Karen's arm, rendering the guess he could've called correctly wrong, thus freeing the others.
  • Anacondy petrified all of the main Cures and turned them into Eternal collections as the Eternal Director makes his flight to the Cure Rose Garden (oh and he kills Anacondy afterwards). Even with Milky Rose, she wouldn’t be enough to single-handedly beat the Director and she doesn't know Eternal base's interior well enough to find out where the Cures are taken. But suddenly, Bunbee comes in and nonchalantly shows her the way just before he calls it quits for real, so Milky Rose and the other mascots reach the Cures, give them a pep talk that restores them from petrification, so they can catch up and deliver a righteous beatdown to the Director.
• Oddly Named Sequel: It's called Yes! 5 because there are five Cures, but Go!Go!, which now has six, is the actual fifth season.^note In Japanese, "Go" is also the word for the number five in that language.
• Pie in the Face: Nozomi in the Go Go movie, albeit by accident, when the group end up in the Dessert Kingdom, and she lands face-first into a cream pie flower.
• Real Men Wear Pink: A guy in episode 41 of Go Go wears a lot of accessories, including girly ones. He does this because they're gifts from his little sister.
• Something about a Rose: The major motif of Go Go, with Milky Rose representing the blue rose and Precure representing the red rose. This is all in accordance with the prophecy of the Cure Rose Garden.
• Surprise Santa Encounter: Episode 44 of GoGo. Santa Claus is attacked by Mucardia who steals his sleigh and Santa falls on earth while losing his cloak and hat and catching a cold. Syrup and Urara find him in a park where he collapses, so they bring him to Natts House. They later bring his sleigh back after they purified it as a Hoshina, and Santa goes back to work. While everyone else figures out he's the real Santa when he's about to go, Nozomi and Urara take it longer.
