Despite it being widely known as one of the absolute best seasons, it has always been a blind spot in my love of the franchise. I had not yet watched HeartCatch Pretty Cure until I started last night. And I'm so glad I finally started it because holy dang this is a great one.

I love how this show looks. With Yoshihiko Umakoshi on character design and serving as one of the animation directors - who also did such things on Marmalade Boy, Berserk, Baki the Grappler, Casshern Sins, Mushi-Shi, and quite a few others - and people like Studio Trigger's Sushio on key animation, this is such a visually distinctive series. It looks and moves like few other things and definitely stands out among the Pretty Cure seasons.

Even from the first episode, I can also just tell they're doing things differently here. This show opens with a combat death, for one, and I know it also has a reputation for dealing with issues like depression and sadness in mature ways.

Anyway, dang, HeartCatch Pretty Cure makes a hell of an entrance and I'm so excited to dig into it.

What would win?

An entire lifetime (probably decades) of social interactions and structural barriers reinforcing your assigned gender along with every piece of media you've ever consumed all overtly or implicitly propagandizing cissness?

Or one flirty girl telling you that you'd look so cute on estrogen?

Something I don't think we talk enough about in discussions surrounding AI is the loss of perseverance.

I have a friend who works in education and he told me about how he was working with a small group of HS students to develop a new school sports chant. This was a very daunting task for the group, in large part because many had learning disabilities related to reading and writing, so coming up with a catchy, hard-hitting, probably rhyming, poetry-esque piece of collaborative writing felt like something outside of their skill range. But it wasn't! I knew that, he knew that, and he worked damn hard to convince the kids of that too. Even if the end result was terrible (by someone else's standards), we knew they had it in them to complete the piece and feel super proud of their creation.

Fast-forward a few days and he reports back that yes they have a chant now... but it's 99% AI. It was made by Chat-GPT. Once the kids realized they could just ask the bot to do the hard thing for them - and do it "better" than they (supposedly) ever could - that's the only route they were willing to take. It was either use Chat-GPT or don't do it at all. And I was just so devastated to hear this because Jesus Christ, struggling is important. Of course most 14-18 year olds aren't going to see the merit of that, let alone understand why that process (attempting something new and challenging) is more valuable than the end result (a "good" chant), but as adults we all have a responsibility to coach them through that messy process. Except that's become damn near impossible with an Instantly Do The Thing app in everyone's pocket. Yes, AI is fucking awful because of plagiarism and misinformation and the environmental impact, but it's also keeping people - particularly young people - from developing perseverance. It's not just important that you learn to write your own stuff because of intellectual agency, but because writing is hard and it's crucial that you learn how to persevere through doing hard things.

Write a shitty poem. Write an essay where half the textual 'evidence' doesn't track. Write an awkward as fuck email with an equally embarrassing typo. Every time you do you're not just developing that particular skill, you're also learning that you did something badly and the world didn't end. You can get through things! You can get through challenging things! Not everything in life has to be perfect but you know what? You'll only improve at the challenging stuff if you do a whole lot of it badly first. The ability to say, "I didn't think I could do that but I did it anyway. It's not great, but I did it," is SO IMPORTANT for developing confidence across the board, not just in these specific tasks.

Idk I'm just really worried about kids having to grow up in a world where (for a variety of reasons beyond just AI) they're not given the chance to struggle through new and challenging things like we used to.
