Smile Pretty Cure/Characters

This is the character sheet for Smile Pretty Cure.

Pretty Cure
The legendary warriors, this time tasked with reviving the sealed Queen of Marchenland. To do this, they must retrieve all of the lost Cure Decor, which have been corrupted by the Bad End Kingdom into the Red Noses.

Miyuki Hoshizora (C)
"Voiced by: Misato Fukuen"

The main character and leader of the Smile Precure. Miyuki is an energetic and optimistic girl who loves fairytale books, believing that if she works hard then she too can get a "Happy Ending". Sadly, she is also a bit of a klutz and has a lot of trouble adjusting to her new powers, along with the concept that she has to actually fight.


 * Animals Hate Her: During her bad luck streak on the Kyoto trip.
 * Butt Monkey: She gets hit in the face by random flying objects a lot, but most physical comedy usually has her on the receiving end. Also, on the Kyoto trip, Miyuki draws a Terrible Luck fortune, whereupon everything that can go wrong to her does: bird poop on her head, getting cut off in a group picture then each picture after that is out of focus or worse, falling into a lake, getting smacked in the head by falling dolls, ice cream in the face due to some kids bumping her while trying to eat it, and it only gets worse when they transform.
 * Cosmic Plaything: Episode 13. ALL OF IT.
 * Iron Butt Monkey: The Aesop of the Kyoto trip is that Miyuki has to learn to be this.
 * Catch Phrase: "Ultra happy!"
 * Also, "Happuppu~" whenever something doesn't please her.
 * Possibly her telling others not to reveal her Secret Identity.
 * Cannot Keep a Secret: The girl has a poor time keeping her secret identity a secret. And blowing everyone else's to boot!
 * Dojikko
 * Genki Girl
 * Genre Savvy: The first thing she wants to do after finding out their goal as a group is to establish a group catchphrase.
 * The next being to establish a secret base.
 * Girlish Pigtails: Her pigtails are normally what could be considered as drill twintails, but are done in a way that they resemble chocolate cornets (as in Konata Izumi's Trademark Favorite Food) more than anything.
 * The resemblance is lampshaded in 14 by a recurring character for the episode holding a pair of chocolate cornets to her head to describe Miyuki's hair.
 * Gratuitous English: Unlike Love who was constantly talking about "shiawase", Miyuki always refers to happiness with the English word "happy", which also happens to be her Cure name.
 * The Hero
 * Idiot Hair: Two, actually.
 * Kamehame Hadouken: "PRETTY CURE HAPPY SHOWER!"
 * Late for School: How she meets Candy.

 * Otaku: Miyuki is a Fairy Tale Otaku and even confesses that the guy she likes is Peter Pan...
 * Perverse Sexual Lust: For Peter Pan, as revealed in Episode 13.
 * Plucky Girl: "If we do our best, happy times will surely come!" This is against a particularly terrifying wolf-man who is a Nietzsche Wannabe.
 * Rose Haired Girl
 * Shy Finger Twiddling: In episode 13 she does this when she is grilled on if she likes a certain guy.
 * This Loser Is You: She's bright, happy and energetic... but also the most incompetent Pretty Cure lead inductee since Heartcatch Pretty Cure's Cure Blossom. Luckily Happy manages to figure out how to use her powers quicker than her predecessor.
 * Wrong Genre Savvy: In Episode 1, to combat Wolfrun, Cure Happy hides behind a brick wall, citing Three Little Pigs and how the Big Bad Wolf was defeated by the brick house. She doesn't realise that Wolfrun can just make a Monster of the Week from the aforementioned brick wall.
 * Zettai Ryouiki: her casual outfit.

"Voiced by: Asami Tano"

A brash and outgoing girl from Osaka. A natural Class Clown, she loves to crack jokes about other people and is quick to befriend the nervous Miyuki on her first day. She is also a keen volleyball player.

 * Even the Girls Want Her
