Well, get used to it, because they reuse it again in the next season.
It seems like for a few years Toei was determined to make Ganbalance De Dance into the main theme song of the Pretty Cure franchise. I don't know why. Maybe they thought kids would start imitating the dance or something? Anyway, they finally gave up after the end of Five Gogo.

My best guess is that they were trying to copy the way Sailor Moon used the same opening theme for most of its seasons, but I think that might be me grasping at straws.

Always thought Ganbalance de Dance was a fun little bit of connective tissue for early Precure, before Fresh took the franchise in fresh new directions. And well, I'll gladly take GoGo's 2nd ED over its 1st

Another important first for this season was it's the first season of Pretty Cure made natively in HD, 16:9.
Previous years were still aired in 4:3.

Since I ended up watching Yes! Precure 5 before Splash Star, I enjoyed Gambalance de Dance as the first version I knew. While all 3 (including the original and GoGo), the Yes 5 S1 version is my favorite. If anything, for how absolutely embarrassed Natts looks to be dancing.
