is the 1st episode of Starlight 5 Pretty Cure!. This episode focuses on Hayai Yoake's first transformation into Cure Rise.

Summary
The episode begins with Hayai Yoake in a Algebra test with introducing herself in her head. She then makes a mistake and quickly giggles before rubbing out the mistake. The opening then plays.

Yoake then exits her maths classroom, only to get crashed into by Shōkyaku Hoshi which then makes Yoake cry due to her sensitivity. Hoshi apologizes and wipes away Yoake's tears, smiling. Yoake next picks up her books that she dropped and walks off.

The day continues and after, Yoake is seen walking home only to see a plush cat-like teddy on a bench. Wondering whom it belongs to who, Yoake starts taking it to Lost and Found. Suddenly, the small cat-like teddy starts rustling in her bag and jumps out.

Scared, Yoake backs away and asks who the cat is. The plush-like creature then introduces herself as Dulcis and says that she is from the Mirror Kingdom which has been taken over by Shadow. Yoake then twitches, reacting to Shadow's name. Suddenly, a boy appears and says that the Earth looks dull. Dulcis then notices the boy warning Yoake, telling her that the boy's name is Umbra and he is an underling of Shadow. Yoake then twitches again while Umbra calls a Sollicitus to chase Yoake and Dulcis for his own pleasure. The monster then hits Dulcis which makes Yoake defend Dulcis.

Umbra then asks why Yoake is defending the fairy and claims that Dulcis is an annoying little brat. Yoake then explains that she is defending Dulcis because someone in a dream, that a mysterious girl told her to never stop believing in herself and always help others. Suddenly, a light surrounded Yoake and a Starlight Catch appears on her wrist. Dulcis then told Yoake that the item on her wrist is a Starlight Catch, an item belonging to the legendary Pretty Cure. She then told the confused girl to shout "Pretty Cure, Starlight Miracle!". Yoake then shouts it and undergoes a transformation into Cure Rise!
