    Tropical Club
[00:11] ---
    Tropical Graduation Festival.
[00:14] ---
    Looks like many clubs want to join.
[00:17] ---
    Everyone's pumped about it.
[00:19] ---
    I'm excited!
[00:21] ---
    Yeah.
[00:22] ---
    Our club needs to decide
    what to do too soon.
[00:27] ---
    All is good if I'm the star.
[00:30] ---
    Hm...a mermaid as the star...
[00:35] ---
    The Little Mermaid?
[00:37] ---
    If so...
[00:40] ---
    how about doing a stage play?
[00:43] ---
    "Stage play"?
[00:45] ---
    Acting as a character of a story
    on stage in front of an audience.
[00:50] ---
    A play, huh?
[00:52] ---
    We can make costumes and props together.
[00:55] ---
    It'll be a good memory.
[00:57] ---
    A mermaid as the lead is fine,
    but not Little Mermaid.
[01:02] ---
    I can't accept that storyline.
[01:04] ---
    Um...
[01:07] ---
    Let's do A Mermaid's Tale
    by Minorin-Senpai then.
[01:21] ---
    Let's spark! Get pumped!
[01:23] ---
    Viva Pretty Cure!
[01:26] ---
    Chase after the light, yeah!
[01:30] ---
    It's summer in our hearts all year long
[01:33] ---
    Hand in hand, fight on
[01:35] ---
    Ride the waves, right on
[01:37] ---
    Tropical-Rouge! Pretty Cure!
[01:43] ---
    The coconuts swing, the guppies dance
[01:47] ---
    We're all brimming with motivation
[01:51] ---
    Don't wait until tomorrow
    Let's get to work right now

[01:54] ---
    After all, being eager is pretty
[01:58] ---
    Come on, do it! Do it!
    Work hard, maidens

[02:01] ---
    We'll sparkle in our compacts
[02:06] ---
    We'll break into smiles
    with our floral leis

[02:09] ---
    Let's make our dreams a reality
[02:14] ---
    Let's tropica-shine!
    We're all Pretty Cures!

[02:18] ---
    All together now, say "Yeah!"
[02:22] ---
    Our hearts shine like the summer sun
[02:26] ---
    You'll miss out if you're shy
    Let's just sing our song

[02:29] ---
    Tropical-Rouge! Pretty Cure!
[02:36] ---
    Pretty Cure!
[02:48] ---
    Spin the Tale!
    Minori's New Story!

[02:53] ---
    A Mermaid's Tale.
[02:55] ---
    It'll be super-duper interesting
    if you make it into a play!
[02:59] ---
    Minorin-Senpai, as a script...
[03:02] ---
    Stop.
[03:04] ---
    Huh?
[03:05] ---
    That story...
[03:08] ---
    has too many flaws.
[03:12] ---
    Not interesting.
[03:13] ---
    Rewrite it to be interesting then.
[03:18] ---
    You can just fix those flaws.
[03:21] ---
    Right?
[03:22] ---
    Yeah, and it'll become
    even more interesting.
[03:31] ---
    Minorin-Senpai?
[03:35] ---
    Let me...think about it.
[03:42] ---
    The dragon's plan was to
    consume the world's fruits.

[03:46] ---
    The fruit-loving girl
    faced it courageously.

[03:50] ---
    "I'll never give you
    this legendary papaya!"

[03:55] ---
    Aozora
    Literary Club Magazine

[03:55] ---
    I'm sure A Mermaid's Tale
    will become a hit stage play.
[04:01] ---
    But if she doesn't want to write,
    we can't force her.
[04:06] ---
    I'm sure Minori wants to write.
[04:09] ---
    How do you know?
[04:10] ---
    She asked us for time to think.
[04:13] ---
    She'd reject if she hates it.
[04:16] ---
    She's wavering because she wants to.
[04:19] ---
    I see.
[04:20] ---
    If she hates it,
[04:21] ---
    she won't write so many pages and
    come up with characters and storylines.
[04:27] ---
    You're right.
[04:29] ---
    I definitely won't do
    something so troublesome.
[04:33] ---
    No way even if I'm asked to.
[04:35] ---
    Me neither!
[04:37] ---
    Not a thing to be proud of
    but it's convincing.
[04:41] ---
    Yeah, she can't write without passion.
[04:44] ---
    She did say so before
[04:48] ---
    that she's enjoying herself now.
[04:51] ---
    Can't she write with enjoyment?
[04:54] ---
    When you mentioned A Mermaid's Tale,
    her face stiffened for a second.
[05:01] ---
    Yes...
[05:02] ---
    I think she's still bothered
[05:06] ---
    by her club senior's feedback.
[05:09] ---
    It could be that the novel
    is still a thorn in her heart.
[05:19] ---
    A Mermaid's Tale
    Minori Ichinose

[05:24] ---
    I can't let this keep affecting me.
[05:28] ---
    As Laura said, I can fix it.
[05:31] ---
    The flaws of A Mermaid's Tale are
[05:34] ---
    its plain characters and story.
[05:37] ---
    Things I have experienced are not in it.
[05:41] ---
    If I can fix these...
[05:53] ---
    But...
[05:55] ---
    can I do it?
[06:01] ---
    Can I make it interesting?
[06:07] ---
    Legendary papayas
    that give the eater superpowers

[06:11] ---
    are scattered around the world.
[06:14] ---
    It'll be a disaster
    if the dragon eats it.

[06:18] ---
    The girl and mermaid set off
    to find another legendary papaya.

[06:23] ---
    To be continued.
[06:25] ---
    Aw, man!
[06:28] ---
    I wanna read what's next.
[06:30] ---
    What power does
    the legendary papaya give?
[06:35] ---
    Now that you say,
    it's still a mystery.
[06:37] ---
    Kuru?
[06:38] ---
    Legendary Papaya
[06:39] ---
    That's it!
[06:41] ---
    - Huh?
    - Kururun?
[06:52] ---
    How can I incorporate
    my own experience?

[06:58] ---
    This is a fictional fantasy after all.
[07:08] ---
    Minorin-Senpai, morning.
[07:11] ---
    Good morning.
[07:13] ---
    What're you all doing here?
[07:15] ---
    To invite you to a quest.
[07:17] ---
    Let's all go look
    for the legendary papaya.
[07:21] ---
    What?
[07:23] ---
    It was written in your story.
[07:25] ---
    One gets superpowers
    from eating it.
[07:29] ---
    So if you can find
    the legendary papaya,
[07:34] ---
    the superpowers will help you
    enjoy writing the script.
[07:38] ---
    But...
[07:39] ---
    The most important thing now
    is to find that papaya.
[07:44] ---
    Let's go!
[07:46] ---
    Wait, Manatsu!
[07:48] ---
    The legendary papaya is...
[07:50] ---
    You came up with it
    and it doesn't exist, right?
[07:54] ---
    Manatsu knows that too.
[07:55] ---
    If so, why...
[07:58] ---
    She's trying to help you
    in her own way.
[08:01] ---
    Ideas might come
    if you take a breather outside.
[08:05] ---
    Shall we take a walk
    and think together?
[08:09] ---
    Guys...
[08:09] ---
    Hey!
[08:12] ---
    Hurry up!
[08:14] ---
    Hurry, come on!
[08:16] ---
    Let's go.
[08:19] ---
    Okay.
[08:23] ---
    So where are we going to search?
[08:26] ---
    A place that has papayas would be...
[08:30] ---
    Aozora Fruit Store
[08:30] ---
    a fruit store!
[08:33] ---
    Ooh, I found it already!
[08:34] ---
    - Legendary papaya.
    - Huh?
[08:36] ---
    Exotic papaya too.
[08:39] ---
    It's the product name.
[08:40] ---
    Oh, I thought there were
    only yellow papayas.
[08:44] ---
    Those are green papayas.
[08:46] ---
    Before it ripens.
[08:48] ---
    Green ones are
    used as vegetables.
[08:49] ---
    Exotic Papaya
[08:51] ---
    Legendary Papaya
[08:51] ---
    It becomes a fruit
    when it ripens and turns yellow.
[08:54] ---
    Wow.
[08:56] ---
    You know so much as always.
[08:58] ---
    I read up about them.
[09:01] ---
    Are you researching papayas?
[09:04] ---
    Yes.
[09:05] ---
    Hm, if that's the case...
[09:11] ---
    Hey, wait up!
[09:13] ---
    Elde-san, how long
    are you going to play?
[09:16] ---
    Forever.
[09:18] ---
    Because I'm a kid.
[09:20] ---
    At this rate,
    you won't get to stay as a kid forever.
[09:25] ---
    Huh?
[09:25] ---
    If you want to stay as one,
    it's about time you get serious.
[09:33] ---
    It can't be helped.
[09:35] ---
    Maybe I should...make a serious effort.
[09:49] ---
    Papaya Plantation
[09:49] ---
    Welcome to our
    papaya plantation.
[09:52] ---
    Wow, amazing!
[09:55] ---
    This is a papaya tree.
[09:58] ---
    It's my first time seeing one.
[10:00] ---
    Isn't it supposed to be taller?
[10:04] ---
    We cultivate it to be short
    for easy harvesting.
[10:08] ---
    And it won't fall easily
    when the wind blows.
[10:12] ---
    I see.
[10:13] ---
    Okay, I'll be working there,
    call me if you need me.
[10:18] ---
    Sure.
[10:20] ---
    Yes, let's go find
    the legendary papaya!
[10:28] ---
    Minorin-Senpai,
    what kind of papaya is it?
[10:31] ---
    Huh? Um...
[10:35] ---
    It looks the same
    as a normal one, I guess.
[10:38] ---
    So the taste is different?
[10:40] ---
    Which tastes sweeter?
[10:43] ---
    Even if you ask me...
[10:45] ---
    I've never eaten a papaya before.
[10:48] ---
    What?
[10:50] ---
    Never...eaten before?
[10:54] ---
    Yes.
[10:55] ---
    But you wrote a papaya story.
[10:59] ---
    I thought you ate a lot
    since you knew so much about it.
[11:03] ---
    Shouldn't you try eating it first?
[11:07] ---
    H...Hey.
[11:11] ---
    Minori!
[11:12] ---
    Minorin-Senpai, wait up!
[11:14] ---
    Don't run or you'll trip...
[11:19] ---
    Minorin-Senpai.
[11:20] ---
    Are you all right?
[11:29] ---
    That's why I can't write well.
[11:33] ---
    I read books
    and thought I have the knowledge.
[11:38] ---
    I'm not convincing at all.
[11:41] ---
    It's embarrassing.
[11:43] ---
    I want to jump into a hole.
[11:46] ---
    Hole?
[11:47] ---
    Hole?
    Where?
[11:50] ---
    No hole.
    Shall I dig one?
[11:52] ---
    It's a metaphor.
[11:54] ---
    There's no shame in this,
    I've never eaten a papaya before too.
[11:59] ---
    You can always try it now.
[12:02] ---
    Exactly.
[12:04] ---
    Shall we eat it together?
[12:12] ---
    The papaya plantation's sun exposure
    is good.
[12:16] ---
    Why's that?
[12:17] ---
    Not sure.
[12:19] ---
    Papayas are...
[12:21] ---
    They're tropical fruits,
    so sunlight is important to them.
[12:26] ---
    They thrive with lots of sunlight.
[12:30] ---
    Wow.
[12:30] ---
    I see.
[12:32] ---
    I'm glad you're not hurt.
[12:38] ---
    Glasses are safe too.
[12:47] ---
    Thanks.
[12:50] ---
    You know, it's the first time I noticed
    a papaya tree has so many fruits.
[12:56] ---
    The fruits encircle the tree trunk.
[13:01] ---
    Like they're relying on each other.
[13:05] ---
    That's why its flower means
[13:08] ---
    "companion."
[13:10] ---
    "Companion"?
[13:11] ---
    Like friends.
[13:13] ---
    It's a wonderful meaning.
[13:15] ---
    Looks like it's having fun
    in the sun with many friends.
[13:20] ---
    Yes.
[13:23] ---
    There you are.
[13:25] ---
    Hey, girls!
    Come over.
[13:29] ---
    Here, dig in.
[13:31] ---
    Ripened papaya and dishes
    made from the green papaya.
[13:35] ---
    Wow, it's packed with papayas.
[13:38] ---
    These are all for us?
[13:40] ---
    Yes, help yourselves.
[13:42] ---
    If it's nice,
    help to spread the word.
[13:45] ---
    You can count on us.
[13:47] ---
    Boss!
[13:48] ---
    All right, coming!
[13:51] ---
    Enjoy yourselves.
[13:53] ---
    Minori, let's eat
    our first papaya together.
[13:57] ---
    Yes.
[13:59] ---
    Thanks for the food.
[14:03] ---
    Beautiful color.
[14:06] ---
    Unique smell.
[14:16] ---
    How is it?
[14:18] ---
    A mellow texture
    but not as overpowering as I thought.
[14:22] ---
    Mildly sweet and subtle in taste.
[14:27] ---
    I love it.
[14:29] ---
    What a relief!
[14:31] ---
    I'd be at a loss
    if Cure Papaya doesn't like papayas.
[14:36] ---
    That'd be kind of funny though.
[14:39] ---
    Girls, try it.
[14:44] ---
    So tropica-shining!
[14:49] ---
    It's delicious.
[14:51] ---
    Why is it so tasty?
[14:54] ---
    Because it's getting lots of sunlight?
[14:57] ---
    Or it's very nutritious?
[14:59] ---
    Maybe it's because
    the staff grows it with love?

[15:04] ---
    That might be it.
[15:06] ---
    But I don't think that's all.
[15:09] ---
    The girls thought of
    so many ideas for me.

[15:13] ---
    I'm eating with friends who care...
[15:18] ---
    If the legendary papaya do exist,
[15:23] ---
    it might taste like this.
[15:28] ---
    They're filled
    with Motivation Power.
[15:31] ---
    I'll take them all.
[15:33] ---
    Let's play, Super Zettai Yarane-da!
[15:42] ---
    Yarane-da.
[15:46] ---
    Yarane-da?!
[15:54] ---
    Yarane-da.
[15:57] ---
    Let's go, girls.
[15:58] ---
    All right!
[16:04] ---
    Pretty Cure Tropical Change!
[16:11] ---
    Let's makeup! Bling!
[16:16] ---
    Cheeks!
[16:20] ---
    Eyes!
[16:25] ---
    Hair!
[16:31] ---
    Lips!

[16:41] ---
    Dress!
[16:51] ---
    Joyful everlasting summer!
[16:54] ---
    Cure Summer!
[16:57] ---
    Glittering jewels!
[17:00] ---
    Cure Coral!
[17:03] ---
    Sparkling fruits!
[17:05] ---
    Cure Papaya!
[17:08] ---
    Fluttering wings!
[17:11] ---
    Cure Flamingo!
[17:15] ---
    Swaying ocean!
[17:17] ---
    Cure La Mer!
[17:23] ---
    Lively today too!
[17:25] ---
    Tropical-Rouge! Pretty Cure!
[17:28] ---
    Geez, I have no time to play with you.
[17:31] ---
    Giving it my best today.
[17:33] ---
    Yarane-da.
[17:39] ---
    Huh?
[17:40] ---
    What?
[17:49] ---
    It's fast.
[17:50] ---
    Yarane-da.
[18:08] ---
    La Mer!
[18:09] ---
    Flamingo!
[18:21] ---
    How is it?
[18:22] ---
    My Yarane-da's awesome, right?
[18:25] ---
    P...Papaya...
[18:28] ---
    Huh?
[18:29] ---
    It gets lots of sunlight
[18:33] ---
    and grows.
[18:34] ---
    What?
[18:36] ---
    After I met the girls
    and became a Pretty Cure,
[18:41] ---
    I enjoyed quests
    as dazzling as the sun.
[18:46] ---
    Stories that beat
    other exciting ones.
[18:49] ---
    Tropica-shining stories.
[18:51] ---
    My stories with the girls.
[18:53] ---
    Papaya.
[18:54] ---
    I have no idea
    what you're saying.
[18:57] ---
    I'm saying that I'm Cure Papaya.
[19:01] ---
    So what?
[19:03] ---
    Girls, I have a plan.
[19:07] ---
    Attack from around it all at once.
[19:09] ---
    All right!
[19:11] ---
    It's useless.
[19:12] ---
    Yarane-da.
[19:19] ---
    If we attack from around it all at once,
[19:22] ---
    it'll escape upward.
[19:29] ---
    Yarane-da.
[19:34] ---
    Heart Rouge Rod!
[19:46] ---
    Pretty Cure Surprise Papaya Shot!
[19:51] ---
    Yarane-da.
[19:54] ---
    Yay!
[19:55] ---
    Amazing!
[19:55] ---
    Cure Papaya's even better
    after eating papaya.
[19:59] ---
    Mermaid Aqua Pot!
[20:02] ---
    Motivation Power, come back!
[20:13] ---
    Guys, let's do it.
[20:18] ---
    Marine Heart Kuru Ring!
[20:22] ---
    Charm up!
[20:41] ---
    Excellent Tropical Style!
[20:45] ---
    Five powers, roar through the seas!
[20:58] ---
    Pretty Cure Marine Beat Dynamic!
[21:07] ---
    Victory!
[21:16] ---
    I'll put in more effort next time!
[21:20] ---
    What a relief.
[21:21] ---
    The unharvested papayas
    were safe too.
[21:24] ---
    But we didn't find the legendary one.
[21:28] ---
    Huh?
    You were seriously looking for it?
[21:31] ---
    I found it.
[21:33] ---
    What?
[21:34] ---
    The many tropica-shining feelings
    I felt after I met you guys.
[21:40] ---
    They are the "legendary papaya" to me.
[21:45] ---
    Let me write the stage play script.
[21:49] ---
    Not A Mermaid's Tale
    but our story.
[21:54] ---
    Writing that is
    what's most important to me now.
[22:03] ---
    Sounds good.
[22:04] ---
    I super look forward to it!
[22:16] ---
    Everyone, you'll dance with me today.
[22:24] ---
    Let's do this with joy.
[22:34] ---
    Kiss the summer wind
[22:35] ---
    for some bright energy
[22:37] ---
    while in a tropical mood
[22:41] ---
    We all hold the same sun
[22:45] ---
    always shining in our hearts
[22:49] ---
    There's always a reason
[22:52] ---
    for every meeting in your life
[22:56] ---
    Let's start a revolution
    when they happen

[23:00] ---
    It'll make our day shine bright
[23:05] ---
