Movie
Description
Coco is a cream-colored fennec fox fairy prince, later king, of the Palmier Kingdom, notable for his large ears and fluffy tail. He ends sentences with "-coco". He possesses the ability to transform into a tall young human male named Kokoda Kouji, appearing with brown hair and typically wearing smart casual attire like shirts, trousers, and sneakers. As Kouji, he teaches at L'École des Cinq Lumières to stay close to the Pretty Cure team. His personality combines kindness, wisdom, and approachability, though he sometimes acts impulsively or neglects his own well-being. He feels deep responsibility for others, especially the Pretty Cure team's safety, often experiencing guilt for involving them in conflicts from his kingdom.
Coco forms a significant bond with Nozomi Yumehara, beginning as allies and friends in *Yes! Pretty Cure 5*. Their relationship develops romantic undertones, with Coco admitting his feelings during *Yes! Pretty Cure 5 GoGo!*. In the movie *Okashi no Kuni no Happy Birthday*, he participates in Nozomi's birthday preparations at Natts House, playfully teasing her by referencing Sleeping Beauty and joking about waking her with a kiss. Princess Chocola arrives, recognizing him as "Coco-sama." When the Dessert Kingdom's queen reveals herself under Mushiban's control, Coco identifies her as an impostor before being captured and brainwashed. Under Mushiban's influence, he fights Cure Dream, attempting to kiss her while she is weakened against a pillar until she breaks free upon hearing her friends' calls.
His abilities include sensing supernatural threats like Nightmare or Eternal, generating protective barriers, and summoning the Cure Fleurets after awakening his royal power through the Palmier crown. His human transformation requires energy to maintain, reverting under stress or physical impact. He notably enjoys cream puffs, sometimes to the point of overindulgence.
In *Kibou no Chikara ~Otona Pretty Cure '23~*, Coco continues as king while navigating his relationship with the adult Nozomi. He initially avoids contacting her due to royal duties and interdimensional separation concerns, believing their responsibilities preclude a shared future. Learning she regained her Cure powers, he visits Earth and rents an apartment next to hers. Tension arises when Coco objects to her transforming due to health risks, leading to an argument where he expresses feeling powerless to protect her. When Nozomi falls into a coma, Coco confesses his feelings at her bedside and proposes after her recovery. They marry while maintaining their respective duties, with Coco balancing kingship obligations like aiding the Donuts Kingdom with his marriage to Nozomi.
Coco maintains important relationships with fellow prince Nuts as a close friend despite occasional jealousy, with Princess Crepe whom he rejects romantically despite their childhood engagement, and with students who admire his human persona. He consistently prioritizes protecting others, whether his kingdom, the Pretty Cure team, or Nozomi, evolving from a supportive mentor into a partner capable of sustaining cross-dimensional bonds.
