Toei Animation's 2017 entry into the long-running Pretty Cure franchise, Kirakira Pretty Cure A La Mode, is now available to stream on Crunchyroll. The complete 49-episode series includes both English dub and subtitle options.
The show centers on Ichika Usami, a cheerful student whose passion for sweets is amplified when she discovers the magical energy, or "kirakiraru," that gives confections their power to bring happiness. Alongside a team of other girls, she must defend these sweets from imps who seek to steal their energy.
Kirakira Pretty Cure A La Mode brings a focus on gourmet themes and the magic of baking, a common thread in the Pretty Cure series. While its MAL score sits at 7.27, the franchise is a staple in the mahou shoujo genre, known for its energetic action and emphasis on friendship.
