Where to Watch Yes! PreCure 5 in Canada

Japanese television has a knack for doing more with less, and Yes! PreCure 5 is a prime example. It's currently available in Australia on Crunchyroll and Crunchyroll Amazon Channel, and in the US on Crunchyroll and Crunchyroll Amazon Channel, so there's no reason to keep putting it off. An 8/10 rating means the audience agrees.

From the era when television started taking itself seriously as an art form, Yes! PreCure 5 follows a path that stands out in a crowded field. Nozomi Yumehara, a regular student, finds a magical book called the Dream Collet in the library and meets Coco and Nuts, two creatures from the Palmier Kingdom. They plead with Nozomi to restore their world, which has been destroyed by an organization called the Nightmares, by completing the Dream Collet and finding the 55 Pinkies to make any wish come true. Meanwhile, the Nightmares are moving into the real world. Yuko Sanpei and Junko Takeuchi lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. The series ran for 2 seasons (2007–2009), building a story that gave its audience time to invest properly.

Ideal for when you want something light without wanting something stupid. Yes! PreCure 5 respects its audience — rarer than it should be.
