Personality[]

Saki is a cheerful athletic girl and a member of Yuunagi Middle School's girls' softball team. Her family runs the PANPAKA Pan Bakery. She is very energetic and optimistic girl whose hopeful nature often inspires or encourages others. She is bored easily on subjects she isn't interested in. She is selfless and kind but has a short temper at times. While she is good at baking delicious bread, she seems to struggle with making other things.

As an adult, Saki briefly has doubts about herself, as she does not want to let her loved ones down. However, she is encouraged by Mai to be honest with herself and others again.

Relationships[]

  • Mishou Mai: Saki's closest friend. They met five years prior to the series but didn't really get the chance to talk. They become best friends rather quickly, and grow closer by helping Flappy and Choppy.
  • Flappy: Saki's fairy partner. Although they sometimes argue, they still care for each other, and Saki is always there to protect and aid Flappy.
  • Hyuuga Minori: Saki's younger sister, who she shares a bedroom with. They usually get along, but sometimes Minori can be mischievous with or around Saki. Saki can be stern with her if she feels it's necessary, which can hurt Minori's feelings at their worst. However, Saki still loves her sister very much.
  • Mishou Kazuya: Mai's older brother, who Saki becomes immediately infatuated with upon their first meeting, when she was late for school. She often blushes in front of him. He seems to like her, but as nothing more then his younger sister's friend. After becoming an adult, Saki no longer has a crush on Kazuya.
  • Hoshino Kenta: Saki's oldest close friend, they grew up together and have a good relationship. They usually joke and taunt each other. Though Kenta seems to have a short fuse with Saki, he also has a crush on her that she doesn't notice.

Etymology[]

Hyuuga (日向?): Hyuu (?) translates to sun, and ga (?) translates to facing; toward. The two kanji can also mean sunny place or in the sun when used in normal speech rather than as a surname, in which case they are pronounced hinata. This could be a reference to Saki being compared to a sunflower many times throughout the season, and also in relation to brightness, which is represented by her Cure Bright persona.

Saki (?): Comes from the verb saku (咲く?), meaning for a flower to smile, or to bloom, referring to her alter ego Cure Bloom and her flower-based powers.[1]

Cure Bloom means "a flower of a plant" but can also mean "to flourish" as a verb.[2]

Cure Bright means "shining."[3]

History[]

Futari wa Pretty Cure Splash Star[]

One day, when Saki is eating her ice cream wafer, Mai shows up suddenly at the Sky Tree. The girls feel as though they had met before, when Flappy and Choppy suddenly fall from the sky and confirm their thoughts, revealing that Saki and Mai actually met each other at a festival five years ago. But before the fairies can further explain to both girls, Saki's younger sister Minori shows up, so Saki is forced to leave. She returns later to see Mai still at the tree, before being attacked by Karehan. Vowing to protect Flappy and Choppy, Saki and Mai become Cure Bloom and Cure Egret, respectively.

As the series progresses, she becomes close friends with Mai, and also forms a close bond with Flappy.

Later in the series, she befriends Michiru and Kaoru, but finds out they are part of Dark Fall. She, along with Saki, tries to save them from the Dark Fall's pursuit as they are hunted as traitors, despite being unable to reverse Michiru and Kaoru's fate.

After saving Michiru and Kaoru, Saki and Mai head to the Dark Fall one last time to defeat Goyan. During the final battle, Goyan keeps getting stronger, and both Bloom and Egret's attacks are to no avail. During this fight, Cure Bright partially lends her power to Michiru, and reverts to Cure Bloom. Bloom, along with Egret, then uses their final attack Spiral Heart Splash Star to defeat Goyan once and for all. After this battle, Saki and Mai promise to venture into their futures together.

Cure Bloom[]

Cure Bloom

Cure Bloom (キュアブルーム?) is Saki's alter ego, blessed with the power of the earth. In order to transform, she and Mai need their fairy partners Flappy and Choppy who turns into Mix Communes. Like the previous seasons, they need to hold hands to transform and launch a group attack.

Cure Bloom can engage in physical combat, set up energy shields, fly freely using spiritual power, and is protected by a passive force field. Cure Bloom runs on the ground more often due to her abilities pertaining to the earth. Her spiritual powers take the form of solar light, and Cure Bloom exhibits a golden aura. Cure Bloom bears the Flower symbol from Flappy on the back of her gloves. These symbols are always used for launching a group attack and retained when they attain their second form.

As shown from one of the movies, Cure Bloom's image attack is the Bloom Shield.

Cure Bright

Cure Bright (キュアブライト?) is Cure Bloom's alternative form that she obtains halfway through the series. She gets her spiritual power from the moon, which is collected by Moop and used by Flappy. Cure Bright has a yellow and green outfit. Cure Bright's outfit coloring scheme is significantly different from Cure Bloom's, but the design is quite similar. Saki and Mai arrive at the Dark Fall to rescue Flappy and Choppy, only to find them seriously injured. The spirits Moop and Foop heal them, upgrading them from the Mix Commune Set to the Crystal Commune Set and allowing Saki to become Cure Bright.

Flappy and Choppy still retain their ability to collect spiritual power from the earth and the sky after this upgrade, so the girls can freely choose and switch between the two forms. Their two forms look different and bear different Cure titles, but they are actually two different representations of the same transformation, and the girls can only access two of the four powers available to them in either form. Saki fights more frequently as Cure Bright in the later half of the show, and fights as Cure Bright for three of the four episodes for the final battle.
