Emily Anderson, originally Miyuki Hoshizora, is the central protagonist and leader of the Glitter Force. Her life shifts dramatically as a transfer student to Rainbow Hills Middle School when she encounters the pixie Candy and learns of her destiny: to protect Earth and the fairy-tale kingdom of Jubiland from villains spreading unhappiness.
In her civilian life, Emily possesses dark magenta eyes and medium-length hair styled in distinctive cone-shaped buns secured by yellow bows. She typically wears a pale pink long-sleeved top layered with a fuchsia and pale yellow vest, a layered pink and magenta mini-skirt, white thigh-length stockings with pink stripes, and pink-and-white sneakers. Her summer outfit is a ruffled short-sleeve pink top, light blue denim capris, and fuchsia sandals.
Using a Glitter Pact, Emily transforms into Glitter Lucky. This form grants her lighter pink hair extending to her knees in twin tails featuring curled strands and spherical accents. Her superhero costume is a light pink dress with dark pink detailing, pearl ruffles, feathered white sleeves adorned with dark pink spheres, a magenta chest bow holding a gold medallion, fuchsia shorts, and matching boots with wrist guards. This form advances into variations:
* **Tiara Mode**: A gold crown replaces her tiara, complemented by gold ribbon earrings with heart adornments.
* **Princess Mode**: Her hair becomes tightly curled with elongated forelocks, adding a ruffled white gown overlay featuring a striped chest ribbon and brooch.
* **Royal Mode**: Her hair thickens and lengthens further, accompanied by a more elaborate gold crown, a pale pink feathered cape-like dress, wing-tipped boots, and functional white wings.
Emily's personality centers on unwavering optimism, fueled by a deep love for fairy tales and belief in happy endings. She is inherently cheerful and protective, especially of Candy, though her enthusiasm often leads to clumsiness and frequent accidents like being struck by balls or tripping. As a child, she was timid, struggling to make friends and preferring solitary picture-book reading. She overcame this shyness after a pivotal encounter with a mysterious forest girl who inspired her confidence; this childhood friend vanished, leaving Emily with a mirrored necklace symbolizing her commitment to smiles and friendship.
Emily's journey as Glitter Force leader begins with self-doubt; she initially fears confronting Buffoon monsters and misses her signature attack, Sparkle Storm. Through perseverance, she gradually embraces her role, learning to channel her "holy light" abilities and rallying her team with infectious determination. Her growth is evident in her escalating resolve to protect others and her strategic use of upgraded attacks like Tiara Mode Torrent and Rainbow Burst in group battles.
Key relationships define her character:
* **Kelsey**: Her first friend at Rainbow Hills, admired for athleticism and kindness; Emily's encouragement inspires Kelsey to join as Glitter Sunny.
* **Lily**: They bond over shared creativity and storytelling, their similar personalities fostering mutual excitement and collaboration.
* **April**: Emily respects April's maturity and soccer prowess, actively recruiting her for the team and valuing her reliability.
* **Chloe**: Emily reveres Chloe's intelligence and composure, expressing deep admiration when Chloe becomes Glitter Breeze.
* **Candy**: They share an inseparable bond, living together and supporting each other; Emily brushes Candy’s ears and defends her fiercely, though she occasionally expresses frustration over Candy’s mishaps.
Emily's backstory includes recurring dreams about the Glitter Force before arriving in Rainbow Hills, foreshadowing her destiny. Her journey culminates in uniting the team, collecting Glitter Charms to revive Queen Euphoria, and thwarting Emperor Nogo’s plans. By the series’ end, she authors a picture book symbolizing her commitment to creating real-world happy endings. She is fond of the fairy-tale character Peter Pan.
