Description
Ran Hanamichi is one of the four main heroines of the Delicious Party Precure story and appears as the yellow Cure Yum-Yum in the film Eiga Delicious Party Precure: Dreaming Children's Lunch. She is a thirteen-year-old second-year student at Shinsen Middle School and is in the same class as Yui Nagomi and Kokone Fuwa. Her family runs the ramen shop Panda Hut, and she helps out at home by delivering food with a self-made carrier she calls Demae 5-go. She has short brown hair styled into two looped braids and wide red eyes, and at 150 centimeters tall she is the shortest of the heroines in her group. Her birthday is on July 11.

In terms of personality, Ran is a talkative and cheerful girl described as a cute and chatty middle school student. Her curiosity about food is especially strong, and whenever her excitement builds she starts talking in distinctive and colorful expressions and finds it hard to stop. She secretly posts about meals on the social media app CureSta. She is sociable, upbeat, and good-natured, though her talkative streak can occasionally embarrass her. Her whole family is noted for being highly individual, and Ran shares that energetic, expressive quality.

Her main motivation comes from a genuine love of food and the happiness it brings. She wants to protect the smiles that come from sharing meals, and as a Pretty Cure she channels that feeling into defending Oishiina Town and the people around her. Her sense of justice is strong, and she enjoys being an active and enthusiastic ally to her friends.

In the story of the film, Ran joins her fellow Cures and their fairy partners when the children's lunch theme park Dreamia suddenly appears in Oishiina Town. After the park's director turns Rosemary into a plush toy and robots begin attacking the group, Ran transforms into Cure Yum-Yum and fights alongside the others. When the group is separated inside Dreamia, she works with her teammates and her partner fairy Mem-Men to protect the children and oppose the park director's plan, taking part in the final battle to return the park's visitors to normal and restore everyone's smiles.

Her closest relationships are with the other heroines: her classmates Yui Nagomi and Kokone Fuwa, as well as Amane Kasai, the fourth member of the team. Her transformation partner is Mem-Men, the noodle energy fairy, who shares his power with her so she can become Cure Yum-Yum; in the film, Mem-Men gains a human form and enters Dreamia with the group. At home, she lives with her father Koshinosuke, her mother Tsurune, a younger sister named Rin, and a younger brother named Run, and the family works together at the ramen shop.

In terms of development, Ran begins the series as a recurring background figure and becomes one of the central heroines from the middle of the story onward, growing into a reliable fighter while keeping her lively, food-loving nature. The movie presents her as an established member of the team, and her role there reinforces how she has learned to use her cheerfulness and attachment to food to support her friends in a crisis.

Her notable ability is transforming into Cure Yum-Yum with the power borrowed from Mem-Men. Her theme color is yellow and her motif is ramen, and she introduces herself with the phrase "Sparkling noodle emotion! Cure Yum-Yum!" Like the other Cures, she wears an apron and earrings shaped like a spoon and a fork, with hers in bronze. She draws on noodle-themed power through party items such as the Heart Cure Watch and the Party Candle Tact, and in the film the team combines these powers into the movie-original group technique called Pretty Cure Precious Eternal Dreamia to overcome the threat.
