Wonderful Precure!

Mayu tells Iroha she’s concerned because Yuki seems to be disappearing a lot recently. Iroha brings a security camera to Mayu’s room and as they wait for something to happen, Komugi senses a Garugaru and jumps up.

During an afternoon nap, Komugi dreams about a lonely wolf howling. After that, she goes out to the Star Festival and learns that Japanese wolves once lived near Animal Town.

All of the Kirarin Animals have returned, and Niko Garden is restored. The maker of the garden, Niko-sama, appears in egg form, and for some reason the egg comes to Iroha’s room.

For their summer independent research project, Komugi and the others go to the beach in Animal Town. They decide to play in the ocean until the sea turtles begin to lay their eggs, when a Garugaru appears.

Komugi and the others go outside for a walk and shopping despite the extreme heat and nearly collapse before finally taking shelter at Satoru’s house. But not long after they decide to go back outside, a Garugaru appears.

The mayor of Animal Town is hosting a Tsuchinoko Tracking Competition and Komugi and the others are joining in. While failing to find any clues, Mey Mey comes to check on the Niko-sama egg and drops it down a slope.

Komugi and the others visit their classmate Ohkuma, whose family runs a farm. They try milking cows, and they watch a sheepdog show, but then a Garugaru appears.

The egg finally cracks, and Niko returns. Komugi and the others return to Niko Garden together with Niko and learn about Gaou, the one who turned the animals into Garugarus.

Niko explains the secret of the Mirror Stone to Mey Mey. Meanwhile, Komugi and Yuki are trying to help Iroha and Mayu recover from the shock of the wolves’ anger.

Mayu begins uploading photos and videos of Yuki to Curesta. When her posts get popular, a friend, Yuma, who she knew from before she changed schools sees her post and comes to Pretty Holic.

Komugi and the others go to the Animal Town zoo, Petting Zoo. They get to see animals up close and meet an elephant Iroha has known since she was little. Note: This episode marks the 1,000th episode of the Pretty Cure franchise.

At Iroha’s house, her father Tsuyoshi has a lot of animals visiting him to get trimmed. Yuki and Mayu, then Satoru come to the house, and hear the story of how Tsuyoshi became a trimmer from Iroha’s mother, Yoko.

Mayu's father returns to hold a photo exhibition in Animal Town after a long time away. Yuki chooses not to go to the exhibit to spend some time alone and encounters a lost kitten in a park.

Yuki and Mayu see Satoru receiving a confession of love from a female classmate. That day after school, Satoru hears from Iroha that “Keiji, who I adore, is coming to my place” and gets quite a shock.
