Plot
The day I moved to Aozora City, I discovered a secret in the ocean.
This secret goes by the name of "Laura", and she's actually...a mermaid!
In the ocean, there's a land of mermaids called "Grand Ocean",
however, a "Witch of Delays" who lives in the darkest depths of the ocean, deprived Grand Ocean of its "motivation power".
So now no one in Grand Ocean is feeling motivated anymore.
And it'll be horrible if motivation is taken away from the human world too...!
And that's why Laura has come alone to the surface to find the legendary warriors, Pretty Cure!
But a servant of this evil witch has come to the surface as well, and has captured Laura!
And the most important thing for me to do now is...
Use my motivation to tropically transform by using make up!
I've transformed into one of the legendary warriors, Cure Summer!
Even if we're Pretty Cure, at school, or doing club activities,

Trivia
- Tropical-Rouge! Pretty Cure is the first series to start in the last week of February instead of the first week, making it the latest that a Pretty Cure series has ever started.
- This is due to the hiatus that the previous series, Healin' Good Pretty Cure had to take because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
- The way the Cures finish off Yaraneedas strongly resembles the way the Suite Cures finish the Negatones. Possibly happened to celebrate Suite's 10th anniversary.
