9

Megumi and Hime seek physical training after their previous battle, visiting Seiji’s karate dojo where Iona and Kazumi also practice. Although eager for advanced techniques, they are taught basics by Seiji. The following day, Kazumi prepares for a rank exam but is targeted by Oresky, who summons a Karate Saiark to attack the dojo. During the ensuing battle, Megumi sustains injuries while protecting Hime from a deceptive strike. As the situation deteriorates, a mysterious new Pretty Cure named Cure Honey intervenes, using a soothing song to control the Saiark. This act encourages the Cures to utilize their new karate skills to defeat the monster. After Cure Honey departs, Kazumi feels motivated to perform her best in her upcoming exam.
