I enjoyed Heartcatch and Suite more than I enjoyed this (I didn't see Fresh, 5/Gogo, Splash Star, Max Heart, or the first season), and I didn't even really like Heartcatch all that much. A friend of mine absolutely hated Heartcatch. It all comes down to personal tastes, rather than "hating for the sake of hating" and "not noticing something good when you see it"...

Pretty Cure has a pretty strong following and this series seems to be doing well. So I mean that's great and all, I just know that I'm not one of the many people who like it... I'm saying this only because I haven't seen anybody claiming that the series wasn't good for its target audience, I've only seen people giving their opinions and the amount of praise I've seen has far outweighed the amount of criticism, so I'm even surprised to see somebody address these "haters"... ^^;
I apologize. I was in no way talking about you. Smile seems to be mired in controversy in most places it's discussed on the net. It's been compared unfavorably to both Heartcatch and Suite since the first episode. The former because it wasn't a Heartcatch clone and the latter because it had a huge hype train leading up to it and was such a departure from Suite that it left fans of that series pretty irked.
