CURETTO DETECTIVE AGENCY

Come on in!

Wow!

It's gold-star lovely!

It really feels like
Kurea and Luluka's room!

I'll hold a talk show over here!

I'll have teatime with Luluka.

Pochitan, too!

You're welcome anytime!

I'll teach you how to make tea.

But it is kind of small.

We're in the rooms you two used to use...

It's okay, we were just saying
how happy we are to share. Right?

Yes. If a client comes,
we'll be ready to go immediately.

Hey! They're ready!

Business cards for Luluka and Kurea!

Thank you!

CURETTO DETECTIVE AGENCY

With Luluka here, you'll be unstoppable.

That's very reassuring.

We'll learn from you.

Now we can help
many more people in trouble.

CURETTO DETECTIVE AGENCY

Let's do this.

Arcana Shadow...

My apprentice left without
a word of farewell to her mentor.

I'll have to bring one last lesson

and make sure she learns it!

The hint is in the heart!

The Path to Star Detective
Starts With a Single Step

This is Pretty Holic.

In addition to being detectives,
we also run this shop.

-I know.
-Huh?

Luluka disguised herself as a customer
and shopped here before.

Yes.

When the shop first opened.

Huh? You came that long ago?

I didn't notice at all.

If you're going to work at Pretty Holic,
there's one thing you need.

Welcome!

Welcome!

Welcome.

Luluka! Be friendlier!

Smiles are basic customer service.

Smiles...

If the clerk is scowling,
the customers will get scared.

Little children especially
need bright smiles.

-What?
-You also had a hard time smiling.

You've grown so much!

I'm a genius, after all!

Geniuses don't skimp on effort!

It's okay, Luluka.

Even Jett-senpai learned how to do it.

-Yes.
-Hey now!

I've got to practice smiling.

Everything Jett-senpai makes is so cute!

Yes, these designs remind me
of the Star Kiraring Brooch.

They do!

Star Kiraring Brooch?

You know about that?

Yeah! Huh? Didn't we tell you?

Sorry! We might've
forgotten to mention it.

Back when Luluka and I were in London,
we got to see it once.

No Star Detective has ever
been able to remove the ring.

Yes, the Star Kiraring Brooch
isn't just a tool!

So valuable it's legendary,
a unique item with ultimate power...

Anyway, it's an amazing item.

So you don't know the details either?

Even geniuses have things they don't know!

Anybody home?

Goemon?

Is a Makoto Jewel nearby?

Where?

No!

I'm not here to steal a Makoto Jewel.

Arcana Shadow! What are you doing?

-Huh?
-What do you mean?

I'm your senior and your mentor. How could
you quit the Phantoms without telling me?

Being difficult as usual.

I'm...

I'm not Arcana Shadow anymore.

You're the Phantom Thieves' Guild, no,
my apprentice, Arcana Shadow.

I can't just let you go off on your own!

Come forth, trick maze!

There is only one exit.

If you find it, I'll accept you.

Not as a Phantom,
but as a Star Detective Precure!

Goemon is missing?

I found a pile of these.
Is it some kind of message?

What gives?

There he is!

He's gone rogue!

Maestro Usonoir.

Leave it to me to settle the score
with Arcana Shadow!

There is one exit.

The other doors lead
to a variety of places.

One mistake and you'll be sent
to wander an unknown world for eternity.

Yes, who's there?

Puri, puri, puri, puri!

Puri? Who are you?

I'm Purirun!

Where am I? Who are you?

Me?

I'm Goemon of the Phantom Thieves' Guild!

Octopus sausages are so good!

Listen, you!

Do you want one?

No!

Now who is it?

Woof!

Whoa!

Why a dog?

Hello!

Whoa! That dog spoke!

What's he doing over there?

I don't know.

What are you?

I'm Komugi! Let's play together!

I have no time to play!

Too many doors means
too many interruptions.

I have no choice!

I'll narrow it down to three.

Alright!

Can you find
the Star Detective Precure door?

Of the three doors, one is correct.

Which is it?

The correct door is
hidden in the hint numbers.

Hint numbers?

Numbers like 3, 6, 9?

First hint!



This door is fake.



Second hint!



This door might be fake.



Third hint!



This door might be real!



That's all the hints.

Which door is the real door?

He said the answer
is hidden in the hint numbers.

Hint numbers. 3, 6, 9...





If it's a number, we shouldn't get
distracted by words like real and fake.

What does that mean?

-Hint numbers.
-Could it be?

Ice cream and mysteries
all melt away eventually.

The answer is...

That door!

The correct door is...

Three.

Oh? What's your reasoning?

You said the correct door
was hidden in the hint numbers.

By hint numbers, you didn't mean
the 3, 6, 9 that appeared in the hints.

First hint!

Second hint!

Third hint!

You gave us three hints.

So the answer is door three.

- CURETTO DETECTIVE AGENCY

- We got out!

- That was a simple riddle.

Sometimes thinking too hard
can make it even more confusing.

Good to know!

CURETTO DETECTIVE AGENCY

Kudos, Arcana Shadow!

Have this as your reward!

Pop!

Presenting your diploma!

Lady Arcana Shadow!

Diploma?

I told myself I'd never
take an apprentice.

But your spirit impressed me,
and I took you as my first apprentice.

We spent our days hunting
Makoto Jewels together.

As a newcomer,
you learned from my example.

You learned quickly.

Sometimes our bonds went beyond
mentor and apprentice.

We ate ice cream together.

What's Goemon doing?

-I don't know.
-Beats me.

As your mentor, I confer your graduation.

This shows that you
have achieved independence.

Now, take it!

Uh, what are you going to do?

Take it?

She doesn't need it.

Pochitan?

What's this?

A Makoto Jewel!

-He did what?
-That's super fly!

I underestimated you, Goemon!

- My strong feelings for my apprentice
summoned a Makoto Jewel!

- CURETTO DETECTIVE AGENCY

- She's not your apprentice.

- You're so delusional!

But his feelings for Luluka seem real.

The appearance of a Makoto Jewel
means the test isn't over!

Lies, envelop!

Come on, Hanninda!

DIPLOMA

Han! Nin! Da!

That's so wack!

Why doesn't he just take it back here?

I get it! He wants a more
beautiful, passionate narrative!

Goemon...

Do you want to be sent to the trap room?

Ha! Hanninda!

If it summoned a Makoto Jewel,
it must be something special.

But we can't let
the Phantom Thieves' Guild have it.

Open!

Shine Arcana Rod!

Precure! Wake-up Time!

Shine, Lily-white.

Flower Tap!

The white light that shines upon truth,
Star Detective Cure Arcana!

Open!

Top of Lily Fragrance!

Precure! Wake-up Time!

Floral Spin,

Bloom!

Awaken!

The fragrance of inner truth,
Star Detective Cure Eclair!

Open!

Jewel Cure Watch!

Precure! Wake-up Time!







Spin around!

And finish off cutely!

Gold-star closing the case on any mystery!

Star Detective Cure Answer!

Jumping towards smiles
with layered reasoning!

Star Detective Cure Mystique!

Star Detective Precure!

I'll show you my answer.

Arcana Shadow.
This is your graduation exam.

If you can defeat me and the Hanninda,
I'll give you your diploma!

How many times must we say
she doesn't need it?

He really wants to give it to her.

If she takes it, maybe he'll leave.

That makes sense.

Han! Nin! Da-da-da-da-da!

Dadadadadada!

What's wrong?

If you don't fight, you can't graduate,
Arcana Shadow.

I'm not Arcana Shadow.

I'm Cure Arcana!

Arcana Star Shine!

Ha? Ha?!

Your guard is down!

Open!

Pre-Kit Light!

Take that!

How could I be toppled
by such a light breeze?

Ha-da-da!

Now!

Everyone!

Makoto Jewel!

Answer,

Mystique,

Eclair,

Open!

This is our answer!

Precure!

Star Detective!

CUREtto Case Closed!

Hanninda!

Pochi Pochi Cure Cure!

CURE ARCANA SHADOW, YOU HAVE HEREBY
ACHIEVED INDEPENDENCE

You're not bad.

Fine. I'll give you that diploma.

If you insist, we'll take it.

One more thing.

This is...

You left it behind.

You can't pretend the past never happened.

You can't erase it, no matter what.

Don't forget the path you walked
as Arcana Shadow!

Carry your past to a new future path!

He really does too much.

Cure Arcana! Now we are enemies.
I'll crush you with all my might!

Be ready!

I'll never lose.

I like your look of determination.

It'll be a pleasure to defeat you!

CURETTO DETECTIVE AGENCY

This may not suit a Star Detective, but...

It's a big step for you.

It's proof of how much you've thought,
worked, and progressed, step by step.

You know, your Cure Arcana outfit is cute,

but I think your Arcana Shadow
outfit was lovely, too.

A journey of a thousand miles and the path
of a Star Detective begin with one step.

I can't wait to see
what path we walk together.

Yeah.

Oh, so you can smile!

A grin!

You look lovely when you smile.

We got the scroll back from the Phantoms.

But three people claim to own it?

Who's the true owner?

There should be clues in their stories!

Wait, is that Shiruku?

Star Detective Precure!
"Luluka and the Gold-Star Full Moon"

That mystery! CUREtto Case Closed!
