Movie
Description
Prince Natts of the Palmier Kingdom appears as a brown squirrel-like fairy with dark brown eyes, a dark orange hair tuft, white neck fur, and a beige underside. He transforms into a human alias, "Mr. Natsu," featuring dirty blonde hair and tanned skin. His human attire includes a russet brown vest, dark pink long-sleeved shirt, brown buckle belt, dark blue ripped jeans, and brown boots. As an adult, his human form sports slightly longer hair, a long dark maroon jacket with brown and gold accents over the same shirt, light grey jeans, and medium brown boots. In fairy form, his speech often ends with "~natts".
A traumatic event defines Natts' past: while on guard duty, his attempt to aid a wounded creature—revealed as an enemy decoy—led him to open the kingdom's passage. This allowed Nightmare forces to invade, causing the kingdom's downfall. Overwhelmed by guilt and distrust, he fled to the human world with Prince Coco. There, he shielded Coco from an attack by Hadenya, sustaining severe injuries that caused the Dream Collet to absorb him for protection, sealing him until the Pretty Cure intervened.
Serious, initially distrustful, and stubborn due to his trauma, Natts often refuses help. He prioritizes honesty, making apologies or insincere statements difficult, though he genuinely regrets hurting feelings. His bond with the Pretty Cure team, especially Cure Mint (Komachi Akimoto), deepens over time. He offers constructive, sometimes blunt, criticism of her writing, initially causing friction, but later supports her perseverance, reflecting growing empathy.
His relationship with Coco becomes strained after the invasion but rebuilds through shared challenges, though he sometimes envies Coco's ability to aid Pretty Cure in battle. With Komachi, mutual respect strengthens their bond; he aids her growth while learning to temper his straightforwardness.
In *Yes! Pretty Cure 5 GoGo!*, Natts and Coco ascend as co-rulers of the restored Palmier Kingdom. Receiving the kingdom's crown grants him new abilities, empowering Milky Rose and enabling combined attacks like Cure Dream and Milky Rose's unified power. During the movie *Okashi no Kuni no Happy Birthday*, he accompanies the team to the Dessert Kingdom for Nozomi's birthday. Captured alongside Coco and Syrup by Mushiban and the corrupted Queen, he is freed by Mailpo and actively participates in rescuing the team and strategizing against Mushiban.
In *Kibou no Chikara ~Otona Pretty Cure '23~*, he continues as Palmier's co-king, managing diplomacy like negotiations with the Donuts Kingdom. Investigating mysterious Time Flowers in the Cure Rose Garden, he warns former Pretty Cure members about transformation dangers. He advises Coco on expressing feelings honestly and acknowledges Kurumi's determination despite risks, demonstrating enduring protectiveness and leadership, committed to preserving peace and trusting human resilience.
Etymologically, "Natts" combines with "Coco" to form "coconut," aligning with the palm motif of Palmier Kingdom ("palmier" meaning "palm" in French). His alias "Natsu" references the Japanese word for "summer".
