Description
Hinagiku Tamano is one of the main protagonists in the Wedding Peach DX original video animation series. She is a student at Sei Hanazono Junior High School and a close friend of Momoko Hanasaki and Yuri Tanima, serving as a member of the school's newspaper club where she often acts as a reporter. Hinagiku is identified as the reincarnation of a pure angel, and she possesses the ability to transform into the Love Angel known as Angel Daisy, also referred to as Angel Daisy.
Hinagiku was born on May 5, 1982. She has a very athletic build, standing 157 centimeters tall and weighing 45 kilograms. Her appearance is characterized by short, green hair and brown eyes, with a distinctive cowlick on the top of her head that resembles a chicken's comb. Her family runs a flower shop called Flower Tamano, and her household consists of her parents, who have a temperamental Edo-style personality, and a younger brother named Akira.
In terms of personality, Hinagiku is notably a tomboy. She has a brash and masculine way of speaking, often using the first-person pronoun ore, and she is known for being straightforward, saying whatever is on her mind. She is quick-tempered and can be violent, with the devil Jama-Pii often being the victim of her frustration. Despite this tough exterior, Hinagiku possesses a sensitive and gentle side that she tries to hide. She secretly likes cute things and is deeply caring toward her friends, though she would rarely admit to it openly. Her academic favorite subject is Physical Education, while her least favorite is Mathematics.
Hinagiku's primary motivation is to protect love on Earth as one of the Love Angels. In her civilian life, she shares a common goal with her friends in having a crush on the star soccer player Kazuya Yanagiba. However, a more significant and deeper motivation is her complex relationship with her childhood friend, Takuro Amano. Throughout the narrative, Hinagiku is forced to confront her deeply buried feelings for him, and despite her stubborn insistence that he is just an old friend, she cares for him more than anyone else and feels a strong desire to protect him.
Her role in the story is as a warrior against the forces of the devil world. As Angel Daisy, she is charged with subduing devils, often using her immense physical strength to engage opponents directly. She is the third Love Angel to awaken after Wedding Peach and Angel Lily. In the Wedding Peach DX OVAs, which take place two years after the battle with Reine Devila, Hinagiku plays a central role in the episode thematically linked to Winter.
Key relationships define much of her character arc. Her bond with her best friends, Momoko and Yuri, is crucial as they fight together as the Love Angels. Her relationship with Takuro Amano is the most significant, evolving from childhood friendship into a romantic connection, and it is implied that they eventually marry. She also has a dynamic with the angel world, taking orders from the goddess Aphrodite via her transformation item.
Hinagiku undergoes notable development from a girl who simply fights monsters to one who embraces her own vulnerabilities. She learns to accept her sensitive side and her romantic feelings for Takuro, moving past her initial fear of appearing weak or unfeminine. Her abilities also evolve, particularly in Wedding Peach DX, where she gains access to a more powerful form and new attacks.
As Angel Daisy, Hinagiku possesses a number of notable abilities and items. She transforms by using the Saint Pendule, a golden watch that appears on her wrist, and calling out Wedding Attractive Flower. Her primary weapon is the Saint Tornade, a wand with a daisy emblem in the center, which is summoned by combining the power of the Saint Pendule with the Saint Something Borrow, a heart-shaped locket necklace representing the bonds of friendship. Her standard attack using this wand is the Saint Tornade Dreaming. She can also use a weaker attack called the Saint Pendule Daisy Blizzard, which fires blasts of golden love waves. In the Wedding Peach DX OVAs, her transformation sequence streamlines into a more powerful NEO Fighter Angel form, where she gains the ability to use the Saint Rolling Boomerang, a pair of glowing boomerangs thrown from her wrist guards.
