The Star Detective Precure trailer for Star Detective Precure! The Movie: The Mysterious Garden and the Secret of 2 People places a mysterious garden at the center of the investigation. The film will open in Japanese cinemas on September 18, 2026.
The garden takes center stage
The trailer adopts an investigative atmosphere. The garden named in the title becomes the main setting, while a secret involving two characters provides the first narrative thread. The full plot remains under wraps, but the video clearly establishes the location and mystery that will drive the story.
The new visual reinforces that direction by bringing the characters together around the same setting. The promotion is built around a precise mystery: a place to explore and a relationship to understand.
Two songs are confirmed
Yūka Masui and Chihaya Yoshitake will perform the ending theme “FIRST PRISM,” while Ami Ishii will sing the insert song “First Step.”
Their exact role in the story has not been specified. Their performers and titles are nevertheless confirmed ahead of the Japanese release. Further information appears in the news section and among the latest news.
A localized mystery for the new film
A garden and a secret shared by two characters give the film a more specific hook than the simple promise of a new Precure gathering. The editorial team finds this direction compelling because the trailer has an immediately identifiable focal point: a place to understand and a relationship to clarify. The available material is still too limited to judge the pacing, direction, or full scope of the investigation.
Precure films are often associated with spectacular threats and collective stakes, whereas Star Detective Precure initially highlights a localized mystery involving two characters. The comparison remains limited because no earlier build, demo, or previous work by the studio is provided as a precise reference.
The confirmed information is straightforward: the Japanese release is scheduled for September 18, 2026, the garden is the announced setting, and two songs have been identified. No local date or legal platform has been confirmed in France or Europe, so the film’s availability outside Japan remains unknown.
