Kurumi Mimino, also known as Milk and Milky Rose, originates from the Palmier Kingdom as a pale pink, lop-eared rabbit-like fairy. Serving as an apprentice caretaker for princes Coco and Nats, she displays deep loyalty, addressing them with respectful honorifics. Milk speaks with a "-miru" sentence ending and initially exhibits a strict, no-nonsense attitude, particularly toward perceived disrespect toward Coco or Nats. Her early interactions with the Pretty Cure team, especially Nozomi Yumehara, involve conflict stemming from selfishness and abrasive behavior, including destroying a decorative butterfly and causing temporary rifts. After the Palmier Kingdom's fall, Milk accompanies Coco and Nats to the human world, residing at Natts House. Isolation fuels initial jealousy and possessiveness, particularly when Nozomi receives Coco's attention. Experiences with the Pretty Cure team gradually teach her trust and cooperation. A pivotal moment occurs when Karen Minazuki cares for her during an illness, fostering deep admiration and a lasting bond, marking the start of her emotional growth from troublemaker to valued ally. In *Yes! Pretty Cure 5 GoGo!*, Milk discovers a glowing blue seed linked to the Rose Pact. Planting it grants her the ability to transform into a human teenager named Mimino Kurumi—a name forming a pun on "Milk's ears" backward. As Kurumi, she presents as a refined transfer student with wavy purple hair, though her core personality persists. She also gains the power to become Milky Rose, a warrior initially surpassing the Cures in strength. Transforming requires the Milky Palette and the phrase "Skyrose Translate!", adopting an elegant battle outfit with blue rose motifs. Her attacks, like Milky Rose Blizzard, conjure blizzards of rose petals to freeze enemies. Prolonged tension or exhaustion reverts her to fairy form, a significant limitation. As Milky Rose, she aids the Cures while concealing her identity for "coolness," though her secret is revealed after a battle-induced reversion. This leads to full integration into Natts House and the team. Her combat role expands with upgrades like Metal Blizzard (using the Milky Mirror) and Floral Explosion (with other Cures). In the *All Stars DX* movies, she achieves Rainbow Milky Rose, gaining angelic wings, a longer skirt, and enhanced attire. Despite her prominence, she is not officially recognized as a Pretty Cure in-series. Milk's relationships evolve: she develops mutual respect with Nozomi through shared traits like occasional childishness, supports Coco and Nats diligently, and maintains unwavering admiration for Karen. Her fondness for chocolate and occasional clumsiness add nuance. The blue rose symbolizes her theme of secrecy and resilience, reflecting her journey from solitary fairy to selfless protector.
