posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
The staff of the Go! Princess Precure anime revealed on Wednesday that the anime has cast Maaya Sakamoto in the role of Asuka Kitakaze, a veterinarian who will appear in the anime's 36th episode on Sunday. The episode is titled "Namidatsu Kokoro...! Minami no Mamoritai Mono!" (A Confused Heart...! What Minami Wants to Protect).
The official Precure website also began streaming a teaser for the episode on Wednesday, which briefly shows Asuka Kitakaze.
Girl: Who was that woman we met in the sea?
Girl: Go! Princess Precure, "Namidatsu Kokoro...! Minami no Mamoritai Mono!"
Go! Princess Precure's story is set in Noble Academy, the first boarding junior high school in the Precure franchise. The anime depicts the excitement of dorm life, coming of age while living with friends, and the anticipation and anxiety of a new life among roommates, separated from family.
One day, the "Princess Precures" were revived by the Princess Perfume (and Kanata's dress-shaped "Dress-Up Key" that unlocks the Princess Perfume's power), and Haruka transforms into the flower princess Cure Flora. When unleashing their special signature moves, the Princess Precures' outfits turn into magnificent princess-like Mode Elegant long dresses.
The anime premiered in Japan on February 1.
The anime will have a three-part film titled Eiga Go! Princess Precure Go! Go!! Gōka 3-bon Date!!! (Go! Princess Precure : Go! Go!! Grand 3-Part Movie!!!), which opens in Japan on October 31.
