Glitter Force: A Picture Book Mishap!

**Glitter Force: A Picture Book Mishap!** is the english dub of the Smile Pretty Cure movie, and the first glitter force movie. It is produced by Saban.

## Plot

The story starts in the past. As a young Emily is seen playing in the playground and finds a picture book with the ending pages torn out*.* The scene changes to her reading aloud to herself in the library, where she tries to smile and finally she make friends. Afterwards, she promises to the book to continue the story.

In the present day, Emily and the other Glitter Force warriors are at a Picture Book Convention, having fun and enjoying themselves (Unaware that a shadow had been following them). Soon enough, they find the small theater called "The Big Adventure in a Picture Book." Kelsey suggests a 3D movie, but Emily and Lily reject the idea, as the girls head inside. The movie shows a girl being chased by two monsters: Gloomy and Anguish, who find her hiding. Running away, the girl finally shows her face and jumped out from the screen, being caught by Emily. However, the monsters follow her as well; kidnapping her and causing the glitter force to fight them. After retrieving the girl, she introduces herself as Princess Velvet, and after being requested by the others, she send herself and the Glitter Force to the Fairy Tale World which looks like Jubiland.

Once they arrive, Velvet reveals that the warriors can become any character from a picture book, which they gladly accept. She then sends them off, seaming happy that she could please her guests. However, once no one is around, she says to herself, "You liar."

As they split into different dimensions, the Glitter Force have given to their main character roles at each stories, there are: Cinderella (Emily), One-Inch Boy (Kelsey), Sun Wukong (Lily), Tobias Urashima (April) and Peach Boy (Chloe). After seeing the real main characters of their stories, the five are suddenly confused, wondering why the stories are mixed up: Emily meets Peach Boy, Chloe meets Tobias Urashima, April meets Sun Wukong, Lily meets One-Inch Boy, and Kelsey meets Cinderella.

Velvet snaps her fingers in order to possess the five fairy tale characters, turning them into the Shadow King's minions and the Cures end up being chased (and Chloe letting her hair down by force). They eventually meet up and are protected by the villains from the original stories from Cinderella's punch. The evil-controlled characters then mentioned that there would be no happy or bad endings for any story - no ending at all, shocking the others. Soon, Candy and Emily realize that the real Peach Boy has been controlled by the shadow, and they transform and try to release the shadow from the real characters. However, Glitter Sunny retains her small form, but thanks to the help of One-Inch Boy's mallet, the giant Cinderella and the small Glitter Sunny reverted back to normal. The shadow then comes out of Cinderella, but the other four characters remained to be possessed.

Suddenly, Velvet claps to get everyone's attention and shows her true feelings to Glitter Lucky, shocking her as she remembers her forgotten past. Velvet teleports away by being hugged by unknown shadow, and the villain character in the story throws the Glitter Force warriors in order to follow her. After landing in a fairy tale town, Glitter Lucky tells the story about the book involving Velvet in it:

*"Like her name, Velvet is a girl who is always smiling. The animals who didn't get along with each other... became friends with Velvet's smile. And one day, the Shadow King who hated smiles took Velvet away. The smiles disappeared from the animals' faces and they continued to fight with each other. And then, Velvet was trapped inside the Shadow Castle."*

Peace then asked about what would happen to Velvet, but Lucky replied that the story's continuation was interrupted because the pages were torn out and it never ended. Another flashback shows that Lucky was thinking about drawing the rest of the torn out pages, but gave up when she thought her drawings were never good enough. Thus, Lucky believes that everything was her fault. However, Sunny forces a smile on Lucky’s face, telling her that it’s not her fault and that she would always help a friend. With the others' encouragement, Lucky decides she wants to go to the Shadow King Castle and apologize to Velvet. At the other side, the Shadow King does the same thing to Velvet in order to show her true feelings.

When the Glitter Force reached the castle's main entrance, Velvet responds negatively on Lucky’s apology, and stomps her feet to summon the beaten villains and the evil-controlled characters to fight the Glitter Force. The girl end up get beaten, and Velvet tries to convince the girl that Emily is the cause of all their pain, and that they should hate her. The other warriors decline, saying that Emily is their friend and they wouldn’t let anything happen to her. Finally, Lucky was able to get to Velvet and reveal her true feelings. After apologizing again and hugging Velvet, she finally accepts her apology. But this causes the Shadow King's dismay and he traps Velvet into the cage and absorbs the shadow controlling the main characters into him.

While the Glitter Force fight monsters, the villain characters (with Candy on one of their shoulders) try to release Velvet from her cage, saying that she should embrace all of her true feeling, causing the torn out pages to shine. The cage then disappears, and once getting back on the ground, the pages are restored, much to the Shadow King's dismay again. The Glitter Force decide to use the Royal Rainbow Burst, but the Shadow King fights back, and destroys the attack. With the Glitter Force unconscious, the Shadow King also destroys the Fairy Tale World, turning it into a wasteland-like place.

Velvet tries to persuade Shadow King but to no effect, causing him to throw an attack at her. Once the attack doesn't hit her, Velvet is confused, until she realizes that Princess Lucky sacrificed herself in order to protect her. Unconscious by the Shadow King's strike, Velvet wants the audience watching the movie (which is us) to raise their Miracle Wing Lights to give power to Emily, giving the island a pink glow and transform Princess Lucky into Ultra Glitter Lucky.

Ultra Glitter Lucky uses her power to defeat a dark-magic ball created by the Shadow King, giving the flower field to all the surrounding grounds. Then she introduces herself as "Full of happiness and courage, the light of love, Ultra Glitter Lucky!". The other glitter force members wake up, join up with Ultra Lucky and Velvet, and agree that they should try to purify the Shadow King. With other Princess Forms' power wrapping the Shadow King with angel wings, Ultra Lucky is able to persuade him and purifies the Shadow King into his true form with a hug and a smile.

Afterwards Velvet shows that she wants the world full of happiness, including the Shadow King, and apologizes for messing up the stories while resolving to make the ending of her story herself. Moreover, she says that despite what she claimed earlier, Velvet truly considers Emily as her friend. This makes Emily cry happily and the movie ends with Velvet's storybook creating a wing Glitter Charm.
