Pretty Rhythm Symbolism Masterpost
Prism Jump: The Prism Jump has always been an expression of the girls themselves. Especially in Rainbow Live, they reflect the girls feelings and experiences
Aurora Rising: The greatest Prism jump. Achieved by spreading the Aurora's light through a prism (a clear heart). For this reason, characters who abandon everything/everyone(have a clear heart) can perform it
Butterfly wings: The butterfly wings in DMF represent evolution. It often appears when characters make individual progress at the expense of teamwork (neglecting those they climbed over)
Grateful Symphonia: A massive tree surrounded by butterflies. A collective act that can only be accomplished through collaboration. The series view of competition: winners and losers coming together to make something greater than themselves
Pair Friends: The penguin mascots. Each only hatches in response to the girls chasing their desires e.g Wakana letting of the fear of failure let Ethni hatch
Celestial symbols: the rainbow represents connection and collaboration. The moon represents individual temporary brilliance. The sun(DMF) represents a warmth that draws people in. The star?(DMF) potentially overlaps with the butterfly/ the competitive urge to rise above others
Prism Live: This only happens when the girls open their heart to others: e.g loving someone, forgiving someone
