We still haven't quite reached the 500 post limit yet but did you want to just start a fresh one regardless on that case?

And yeah, I see Mysterious as being kind of a breather season that would be a bit more back to basics than a lot of the previous ones. Thanks for putting up the rest of the Treasure Trove characters (and aside from the obvious ones you might notice a few other One Piece references scattered across some of the character descriptions here and there, some are a bit more blatant than others).

Anyway, more Shinobi Stars:

38: Reunion! Kaguya And The Elder Heroes!

After narrowly escaping the Yoma Headquarters the team regroups at the Sakura Dojo where the previous Shinobi Stars team has gathered. They tell the girls that their training is almost complete but before they can become true masters they must first awaken the “warrior within”, adding that the team must figure out what that means on their own.

While the others go on ahead, Kaguya stays behind to take the opportunity to catch up with her old friends, lamenting that because of her encounter with the Cursed Mask she was never able to truly master her powers the way the others did.

Kareiwa, still obsessed with revenge suddenly launches a surprise attack on the former kunoichi while they’re out for a walk. With the other Precure not close by at the time it’s time to see if these old girls still have what it takes!

Side Note: This episode (and every one afterwards up to 44) features the debut of Samurai Mode (yes, really), the final form of the series.

39: Rei Of Fire

After her grandfather confiscates some of her old manga Rei winds up getting into an argument with him and runs away from home. Things get even more heated though when a Salamander Kagemaru goes on an arson spree around the city!

40: Shake The Earth! Riku Vs Nico

Fed up with Nico’s condescending attitude Riku challenges her to a one on one match  with her position as team captain on the line. Meanwhile, Empress Yumihoshi is growing impatient and tells Mejiuro that this is his last chance.

41: The Snake Doctor Falls! Naru's Big Experiment!

Tired of her failed experiments, Yumihoshi gives Hebisei one final chance to prove her worth. Meanwhile, Naru considers a more scientific method for increasing her power and creates a training device for herself with some help from Budo and Sowani. However, she might wind up getting a bit more than she bargained for when Hebisei suddenly takes control of it!

42: Wishes On The Water

Kasumi’s mother Nami comes by for a visit and the two of them wind up going on a research trip with her father to observe a pod of dolphins that Ike has been keeping an eye on. As Kasumi takes in the beauty of the ocean her skills will be put to the test when Empress Yumihoshi suddenly creates a Isonade Kagemaru of her own to poison the seas!

Side Note: Kasumi winds up revealing her identity to her parents in this episode.

43: The Twin Sakuras! Grandma's Final Lesson

Impressed by Ran's progress Kaede tells her she has nothing more to teach her and now is the time to prove her strength, suddenly challenging her to a duel. Ran recluctantly accepts but winds up struggling due to not wanting to hurt her grandmother. Meanwhile, the final Shinobi Stars has been located and the Empress sends Taīshirogane down to retrieve them, saying that if he fails again he won't be coming back.
