Did I Mention that I Like My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic (G4)
I would like to present to you, Harmony PreCure :D
One of my oldest PreCure groups that I really adore, especially since I’ve been in an MLP high lately. These aren’t like “Redesigning Human MLP characters” or “Turning MLP into magical girls” even though that’s what I’m doing. These girlies may be heavily based on MLP, but I consider them my own characters that I created.
Twilight is the leader of the Mane Six, but she was the last one to join the friend group. Pinkie Pie was the first Mane Six that Twilight met, so Uki will be the first one to become a Cure, and Chōwa will be the Midseason-Ally-Turned-Cure. The Twipie will be extra strong in this one
You know it’s special when these characters actually have CIVILIAN NAMES ALL SIX OF THEM :0c
Uki Kakuzatō is Cure Jubilee
“Popping happiness! Cure Jubilee!”
“Hajikeru shiawase! Kyua Jubirī!”
Uki is energetic and cheerful. As fun-loving as her inspiration, she loves planning parties and befriending, and making others smile with her silliness. Lighthearted in almost every situation, and can easily cheer people up as Uki and as Cure Jubilee. The PreCure of Laughter and the definition of enthusiasm :D She is 16 years old.
Uki comes from ukiuki meaning excited
Kakuzatō means sugar cube, a reference to Sugarcube Corner
Jubilee is a celebration, most specifically for a special anniversary. I’m referencing the MLP character Cherry Jubilee (where jubilee refers to the flambé dessert) but another one of its definitions is “a religious song of African Americans usually referring to a time of future happiness” which was not intended but I enjoy the coincidence :]
Atsuko Chou is Cure Papillon
“Fluttering gently. Cure Papillon!”
“Yasashiku hatameku. Kyua Papiyon!”
Atsuko is soft spoken and kind. A shy little lady, avoiding as much confrontation as possible, and a timid nervous wreck, especially when it comes to singing in front of other people. However, just like Fluttershy, Atsuko is brimming with empathy and compassion. Polite and kind to all living beings, from any and all animals (why wouldn’t she, they’re animal lovers), people and even the villains who’ll “allow her to show it”. The PreCure of Kindess :3 She is 17 years old (like she said, she’s a year older than Uki)
Atsuko means kind/warm child
Papillon is French for butterfly, both surname and Cure name referring to Fluttershy’s Cutie Mark
Norika Nijimichi is Cure Rush
“A flash of colors! Cure Rush!”
“Iro no furasshu! Kyua Rasshu!”
Norika is devoted and confident. Like her inspiration, she’ll never leave her friends, school, or anyone else she cares about hanging. She’s also devoted to her craft as a gymnast, getting in all the practice she can. The Wonderbolts are based on the Blue Angels, the United States Navy flight demonstration team and team for the Air Force, the Thunderbirds. So I decided that the Wonderbolts are a gymnasts. She’s very prideful about her abilities and speed, and she’s very competitive, cannot stand losing. The PreCure of Loyalty >:] She’s 16 years old
Norika in this specific kanji “忠加” means loyalty+addition
Niji means rainbow and michi means path, together making her surname mean Rainbow Road
Rush means “to move forward, progress, or act with haste or eagerness or without preparation”.
Mihiro Kongōseki is Cure Bijou
“Shining beautifully. Cure Bijou!”
“Utsukushiku kagayaku. Kyua Bijū!”
Mihiro is elegant and magnanimous. A refined trendy fashionista, and brimming with glamour. Like her inspiration, she’s prioritized on her beauty, fashion and cleanliness. Most importantly, she’s very giving, more than willing to share her gift with those who need it. The PreCure of Generosity :} She’s 18 years old
Mi (美) means beauty, Hiro (寛) means generous
Kongōseki (金剛石) means diamond
Bijou is French for jewel, both surname and Cure name referring to Rarity’s Cutie Mark
Makiko Ringo is Cure Acre
“A diligent orchard! Cure Acre!”
“Kodawari no kaju-en! Kyua Ēkā!”
Makiko is diligent and trustworthy. A hard working woman, earnest in all her endeavors. She also prefers to work with less technology. Girlie pop knows nothing about it, like me :3 ( Girlie Pop should be an MLP character name lol ) But of course, she can’t be properly Applejack based without her honesty. She values honesty over everything and absolutely despises lying. Aside from that, she’s extremely dependable, the first person one would call when they need help. The PreCure of Honesty :] She’s 18 years old
Makiko means “child of truth” or just “truthful child”
Ringo is Japanese for apple
Acre means a field especially of arable land or pastureland. A reference to Sweet Apple Acres
Chōwa Tasogare is Cure Sortilège
“Brand New Magic! Cure Sortilège!”
“Maatarashī mahō! Kyua Sorutirēju!”
Chōwa is knowledgeable and socializing. Like Twilight herself, she starts out more cold and reserved, not planning on making any friends and simply studying the magic this new place holds. However, overtime she becomes more amiable and pleasant and though still introverted, she no longer scoffs at the idea of good company and making new friends. What remains throughout is her love of knowledge, an intelligent and curious bookworm. She also a very organized person, making lists and schedules and checking them off, everything is easier when it’s done by the book and stuck to the plan. The PreCure of Magic :)) She’s 17 years old
Sortilège is French for “magic spell” her past Cure name was Augury which means a prediction or an omen. I just changed it now, I like Sortilège better :)
