   Pretty Cure are legendary magical warriors chosen to protect the world and its inhabitants from darkness, in this case, the threat of Gaou and the Garugaru. In Animal Town, four ordinary girls – Inukai Iroha, Inukai Komugi, Nekoyashiki Yuki, and Nekoyashiki Mayu – have been chosen to become Pretty Cure, each gaining unique powers and abilities. Becoming a Pretty Cure typically involves a strong sense of justice, compassion, and a deep bond with either people or animals. Transformation into a 'Pretty Cure' or 'Cure' is achieved through magical items like the Wonderful Pact and Shiny Cats Pact, and a heartfelt desire to protect those they care about. Their powers allow them to fight against evil, purify corrupted beings like Garugaru and Gaogaon, and ultimately restore peace and harmony to Animal Town and Niko Garden. While maintaining a secret identity of a 'Pretty Cure' is crucial, it often presents challenges: Iroha, in particular, struggles with keeping her Cure Friendy status hidden due to her honesty and occasional clumsiness, leading to humorous near-reveals and close calls.
