Movie
Description
Pekorin is a fairy who comes from Ichigo Mountain, the sweet-making world of the KiraKira Pretty Cure A La Mode team, and she appears in the crossover film Pretty Cure Super Stars! as a supporting character. She is a small, puppy-like fairy with a pale pink appearance, and her ears change color according to her emotions. Her most distinctive habit is her speech: she ends her sentences with the verbal tic "peko," which also gives her name its playful sound.
In terms of personality, Pekorin is cheerful, affectionate, and energetic. She loves food and is almost always hungry, and she is passionate about making sweets even though she is prone to making mistakes in the kitchen. She can act boldly, sometimes even recklessly, such as when she tries to charge at an enemy on her own and ends up being blown away or hurt. Beneath that impulsiveness, she is good-hearted and loyal to her friends, and she will go to great lengths to help them, especially when it comes to protecting their sweets and the joy those sweets create.
Her main motivation is a longtime dream to meet the legendary patissière warriors called Pretty Cure. That dream drives her early actions as she searches for them, and once she finds them she dedicates herself to supporting their mission. She wants to help protect the happiness that sweets bring to people, and she supports the Cures in guarding that happiness from those who would steal or corrupt it.
In Pretty Cure Super Stars!, Pekorin takes part in the film's opening sequence, where the Miracle Lights used by the audience are explained; she shares this prologue scene with the elder of Ichigo Mountain, and the warning segment also features Harry from Hugtto! Pretty Cure. During the rest of the film, she accompanies the Kirakira A La Mode team and supports the larger gathering of Cures from that team, the Hugtto! team, and the Witchy PreCure! team. One notable comic moment in the film is her skydive, which stands out because she is fully capable of flying; the scene reflects her energetic and impulsive nature.
Her closest relationships are with the five Kirakira Cures, especially Ichika Usami, Cure Whip, who acts as the team's leader. Pekorin serves the group as a guide, cheerleader, and friend. She also shares a strong bond with the elder of Ichigo Mountain, a wise older fairy who serves as a mentor figure from her homeland, and with Ciel Kirahoshi, a fellow fairy who lives among the team in human form. In the crossover setting of the film, she interacts with the characters of the other two teams as well, though her deepest ties remain with her own companions.
Across the parts of her story that lead up to the film, Pekorin develops from a fairy who merely dreamed of meeting the Pretty Cure into a fairy who stands beside them. She eventually gains the power to transform into Cure Pekorin, the Pretty Cure of taste and sparkles, whose design uses the motifs of a lamb and doughnuts. By the time of Super Stars!, she has become an established and dependable companion, even as she continues to fill a lighthearted supporting role.
Her notable abilities include flight, and her ears shift color with her emotions, giving others a visible read on how she is feeling. Her sentence-ending "peko" is another signature trait. As Cure Pekorin, she can fight alongside the other Cures using the Candy Rod, from which she fires cream-like projectiles that explode on impact. Overall, her role in the film is that of a devoted mascot who adds warmth and energy to the team rather than taking center stage.
