Detective Precure! Shares Ojamajo Doremi Crossover Cuts For Episode 39
Toei Animation released the synopsis and first-look cuts on October 24 for Episode 39 of Detective Precure!, titled "Ojamajo na Halloween," which airs October 25 on ABC TV and the TV Asahi network at 8:30 a.m. The episode is a Halloween story in which the four members of the Cute Detective Agency dress as witch apprentices from Ojamajo Doremi: Akachi Anna becomes Harukaze Doremi, Kobayashi Mikuru becomes Fujiwara Hazuki, Howa Crea becomes Senoo Aiko, and Moria Ruruka becomes Segawa Onpu. Producer Aramaki said Ojamajo Doremi appears as a TV anime within the show, and that the collaboration came together because Detective Precure! is set in 1999 and Ojamajo Doremi also began airing in 1999. He said Doremi herself cannot appear because she is a TV anime character, but asked viewers to enjoy the special direction that turns this on its head. The episode is scripted by Narita Yoshimi, directed by Shinohara Kana, and storyboarded by Shinohara Kana and Shigeya Hazuki.
