Tsukikage Yuri, a 17-year-old high school student at Myoudou Academy also known as Cure Moonlight, possesses long dark purple hair, pale skin, and distinctive slit dark turquoise eyes, typically seen behind oval-rimmed glasses. Academically gifted, she consistently achieves top exam scores and maintains a calm, composed demeanor, though initial interactions reveal a cold and distant front stemming from past trauma. Her background is marked by significant familial loss. Her father, Tsukikage Hideaki, vanished while investigating the Heart Tree in France, straining her bond with her mother, Haruna. Searching for him led Yuri to encounter the fairy Cologne and become Cure Moonlight, tasked with defending the Heart Tree against the Desert Apostles. During a critical battle at the Pretty Cure Palace against Dark Cure and the general Sabaku, Cologne sacrificed himself to shield Yuri. This resulted in the destruction of her Pretty Cure Seed and the Heart Tree's withering. The trauma caused Yuri's heart flower to wilt, rendering her unable to transform and plunging her into prolonged withdrawal and guilt. In civilian life, Yuri shares a close friendship with Kurumi Momoka, Erika Kurumi's sister. She provides Momoka with class notes during her modeling absences and, despite initial reluctance, participates in the Fashion Club's show at Momoka's insistence, also resisting involvement with the new Pretty Cure team. Her redemption unfolds when Tsubomi Hanasaki, Erika Kurumi, and Itsuki Myoudouin collect Heart Seeds. Utilizing these seeds and the Heart Pot's power, Yuri regenerates her Pretty Cure Seed. A spiritual reunion with Cologne at the Heart Tree enables her to transform into Cure Moonlight once more, restoring her resolve to fight "for everyone's heart". As Cure Moonlight, her appearance transforms: her hair turns lavender and grows longer, her eyes become bright turquoise, and she dons a silver ankle-length dress adorned with indigo roses. Her arsenal includes **Silver Forte Wave** (unleashing a purification energy beam), **Moonlight Reflection** (projecting a reflective energy shield), and **Moonlight Silver Impact** (a concentrated palm strike). She wields the Moon Tact scepter and employs an acrobatic combat style. Key relationships define her path: * Episode 47 reveals Sabaku as her long-lost father; his sacrifice battling Dune devastates Yuri, nearly driving her to hatred until Tsubomi intervenes. * Dark Cure is disclosed as her non-biological sister and symbolic "shadow," explaining their antagonism. * She mentors the younger Pretty Cure team, initially doubting Tsubomi and Erika's capabilities but gradually respecting their growth. Her bond with Itsuki strengthens despite early friction over Potpourri's safety. In enhanced forms, she achieves **Super Silhouette** via the Heartcatch Mirage, contributing to the **HeartCatch Orchestra** group attack. During the final battle against Dune, she combines with the team to form the planet-sized **Mugen Silhouette**, channeling collective energy to defeat the enemy. Crossover appearances, such as in *Pretty Cure All Stars New Stage: Mirai no Tomodachi*, feature her alongside other Cures combating villains like Fusion, reinforcing her status as a veteran combatant supporting newer allies.
