Description
Annie operates a sweets shop and is friends with the Powerpuff Girls. Known as Sakurako Kintoki in the Japanese version, she presents a shy and reserved personality. Annie nurtures a secret romantic affection for Jason (Souichirou), yet feels too timid to confess, burdened by insecurities about her plain appearance. Her human form features blonde braided pigtails, glasses, dark eyes, and a practical outfit: a blue samue with red trimming, a blue bandana adorned with a pink sakura pattern, and blue shoes. Jason shares her feelings but equally hesitates to voice them.

A pivotal incident occurs when Annie discovers and applies Ms. Bellum's lipstick while simultaneously exposed to Black Z-Rays. This curses her, linking any future application of lipstick to a monstrous transformation into Sedusa. In this form, her appearance alters drastically: skin turns pale, hair becomes disheveled and black-green, eyes shift yellow, and she dons a revealing purple corset dress, black gloves, black pantyhose, and red heels, emphasizing a slender, curvaceous figure. Sedusa's personality embodies seductive flirtation and manipulation, a sharp contrast to Annie's timidity. Her voice shifts sweet to sultry. Though retaining Annie's affection for Jason, Sedusa expresses it with aggressive persistence, often enraged by his perceived indifference.

Sedusa wields potent abilities exclusively in her transformed state: masterful disguise allowing perfect mimicry of appearances and voices, and prehensile hair manipulation functioning like powerful tentacles for combat or restraint. A key weakness involves perfume; it disrupts her disguises if she impersonates someone who doesn't use it, revealing the deception.

Her narrative begins in her debut episode. Transforming at a makeup store, she embarks on a theft spree targeting clothing, jewelry, and cosmetics. After impersonating the Powerpuff Girls, they confront her; Buttercup defeats her using the Piko Piko Hammer. The Professor later removes the Black Z-Ray influence, reverting her to Annie. Subsequent episodes explore her ongoing curse struggle. A significant turn occurs in episode 45 when Jason discovers her dual identity. He confesses his love for her true self, Annie. This revelation causes extreme psychological stress, resulting in her fainting and subsequent memory loss of her Sedusa persona. This resolves the transformations, allowing her to maintain a relationship with Jason as her normal self.

Throughout her experiences, she consistently suffers amnesia regarding her actions as Sedusa, creating a distinct disconnect between her identities. Her story concludes with Jason's acceptance and the cessation of her curse-induced transformations.
