Description
Pie is an alien character who appears in both the manga and anime versions of Tokyo Mew Mew. He is one of the alien antagonists who arrive on Earth with the intent of reclaiming the planet for his people, and he comes to Earth alongside Tart to aid Quiche in preparing the world for the arrival of their leader, Deep Blue.
Pie's background is tied to that of the other aliens. His people were originally inhabitants of Earth long ago, but were forced to leave due to catastrophic environmental changes and settle on another planet. That new world proved to be harsh and inhospitable, and the aliens adapted to survive there. Their return to Earth is driven by the desire to restore their dying home world, a goal Pie pursues with complete devotion. He is deeply loyal to Deep Blue and is considered the most dedicated member of the alien trio, trusting his leader more than he trusts his own companions.
In personality, Pie is serious, calm, and analytical. Unlike Quiche and Tart, he rarely displays his emotions outwardly and seldom smiles, even when taunting the Mew Mews or after Deep Blue's awakening. He is cold and composed in his approach, and he treats conflict as a scientific problem rather than an emotional one. During his early attacks on the Mew Mews, he calmly analyzes each encounter and systematically escalates the threat level of the chimera anima creatures he sends against them, noting when stronger tactics are required. Of the three aliens, he appears to be the oldest, although no exact age is ever confirmed.
His role in the story is that of the group's strategist and intelligence specialist. He handles information gathering, data analysis, and the planning of the aliens' operations. He is a key member of the alien team opposing the Mew Mews and is deeply committed to Deep Blue's mission of restoring the aliens' home planet. Initially, he views the Mew Mews purely as obstacles to be overcome, but his perspective begins to shift as the story progresses.
In terms of abilities, Pie shares the general alien traits of flight and self-teleportation. He fights by creating and deploying chimera anima, the biological weapons the aliens use, and he is also capable of physical combat. In the anime adaptation, he additionally wields a fan-shaped weapon that produces wind-based and thunder-based attacks. His fighting style reflects his personality, being measured and calculated rather than reckless.
His key relationships are with his fellow aliens and with the Mew Mews, particularly the Mew Mew known as Lettuce. Toward the end of the anime adaptation, Pie begins to develop an understanding of the Mew Mews, influenced in part by Lettuce's attempts to convince him that fighting is not necessary. This growth culminates in a significant act of sacrifice, as Pie sacrifices himself to help the Mew Mews, smiling at them before doing so. He is also the last of the aliens to turn against Deep Blue during the final battle, a testament to his deep loyalty.
After Deep Blue is defeated, Pie and the other aliens return to their own world. Before they leave, Ryou gives Pie the remaining mew aqua, and Pie promises to use it to make their world beautiful again. This moment completes his development from a cold and devoted antagonist into someone who has come to understand the value of the world he once sought to take.
