Description
Hikaru Hoshina, who transforms into Cure Star, is the main protagonist from the Star Twinkle Pretty Cure series and also appears in the film Eiga Precure Miracle Leap: Minna to Fushigi na 1-nichi. She is a 13-year-old second-year student at Mihoshi Middle School. Her birthday is on April 12th, which fittingly aligns with the International Day of Human Space Flight.

Hikaru is characterized by an immense and passionate curiosity for the universe, including constellations, space, and cryptids, a fascination she inherited from her father, who travels the world studying unidentified mysterious animals. She is an imaginative person who often draws her own constellations in a notebook, an activity that led to her first meeting with the fairy Fuwa. Her personality is very straightforward and energetic, acting primarily on intuition and a strong inner drive to investigate anything that piques her interest. Known for her boldness, she shows little fear when encountering the unknown, whether it be aliens or spaceships, and is often the first to charge into a new situation. Her catchphrase, which she says when excited, translates roughly to "Twincool" or "Glitterific".

While she is generally a happy and good-natured girl, her impulsive nature can sometimes lead her to be inconsiderate of others, causing her to inadvertently impose her interests on her friends or even risk exposing her team's secret identity. Despite these tendencies, she is deeply caring and fiercely protective of those she holds dear, such as the fairy Fuwa. Her grandfather is strict and often scolds her for her daydreaming, but her mother, a manga artist, and her grandmother are more supportive of her free-spirited nature. Her home life also includes her dog, Yeti.

Throughout her journey, Hikaru builds key relationships with her teammates. She is the first to befriend the alien Lala Hagoromo, and despite initial cultural clashes, they become very close friends. She also serves as a source of encouragement for the more reserved and perfect student council president, Madoka Kaguya, helping her to accept her own imperfections. Hikaru is often recognized as the leader of the Star Twinkle Pretty Cure team, with her unwavering spirit and enthusiasm holding the group together. Her development involves learning to be more considerate of her friends' feelings rather than simply acting on her own desires for fun, marking a maturation in her interpersonal relationships.

As Cure Star, the Pretty Cure of Stars, her theme color is pink and her costume features long, voluminous twin-tail hair with curled, planetary ends and an asymmetrical single stocking. Her powers are based on stars, and her signature move is the Precure Star Punch, where she creates a star-shaped burst of energy. She can enhance this attack using different Princess Star Color Pens to change its properties into forms such as Taurus Star Punch or Pisces Star Punch. She also has the ability to summon Star Shields for defensive purposes. In the series' epilogue, she fulfills her childhood dream of becoming an astronaut, a career that symbolizes her lifelong dedication to space exploration.
