An energetic jock who loves eating sweets and playing sports. She tends to be bullheaded and act before she thinks, but her heart is generally in the right place. As the series progresses, she rediscovers her love of the piano.
An intelligent and cool-headed patissier who works at her family's pastery shop. She becomes incredibly flustered and dreamy when romance is involved, and is short-tempered when dealing with Hibiki.
Big Sister Instinct: Although her little brother Souta doesn't do anything but fool around, she was willing to save him from a Negatone attack in episode 6.
Catch Phrase: "I'll show you the recipe of motivation!" *
"Kiai no recipe misete ageru wa!"
Cuteness Proximity: With cats... or rather cat's paws. No, really, her bedroom is even decorated with them!
Siren, post-Heel Face Turn. Free from her jealousy and the influence of the Noise of Evil, her true personality shines through as a headstrong yet socially-awkward girl whose only wish is to make friends. Her ability to shapeshift has been lost, trapping her in human form under the alias of "Ellen Kurokawa". She loves to read books on how to act in certain situations, being unfamiliar with human social conventions.
Hair Decorations: Prior to her Heel Face Turn, her human form was distinguished by a clef-shaped hair pin. Since becoming Cure Beat, she's apparently replaced it with a yellow scrunchy.
I Have Many Names: She's Siren in her cat form, Ellen in her human form. Yet even after she permanently becomes human, Hummy, Trio the Minor, and Mephisto still call her Siren (and she doesn't seem to mind).
Instrument of Murder: The Love Guitar Rod, which not only has a trigger (which was probably pulled straight off of Raising Heart) for shooting Tone Rings but is also distinctly shaped like a battle-axe in its transformed state.
It Amused Me: Her reaction to the Plot Mandated Friendship Failure in episode 25. Ellen immediately sees through Trio the Minor's attempts to make the situation worse and plays along with them just for the hell of it.
Musical Assassin: Where Rhythm and Melody get magic rods that they wave around like conductor's batons, Beat gets the Love Guitar Rod, a magical axe that turns into an ax and shoots exploding Tone Rings of death and destruction.
Naïve Newcomer: Since adjusting to living life as a human, she's been rather impressionable and clueless about everyday life. Examples include believing she needs to prepare for a mountain expedition to go hiking, and how she intends to introduce herself once she starts attending school...
Plot Mandated Friendship Failure: In episode 25, after Hibiki and Kanade's prank scares the shit out of her. It appears to get worse when Trio the Minor use the same prank to further deepen the already-healing rift between her and her two friends. It turns out Ellen knew what was going on and played along in order to troll the Trio.
Shapeshifter Mode Lock: She lost the ability to shapeshift after her pendant broke, trapping her in human form.
Spell My Name with an S: Seiren is Greek for "siren" and is the standard term for that creature in Japan, but since many English-speaking fans only know the word "siren" her name is usually rendered as "Siren" by the English fanbase.
Almost everyone assumed that her human alter-ego's name was "Ellen", but all official sources (including merchandise and the show itself) romanise her name as "Eren", which is a normal Japanese name, but the katakana spelling made it plausible that "Ellen" was the intended spelling. Never the less, "Ellen" is too well-established amongst the English fanbase for it to change.
Zettai Ryouiki: Featured in her first outfit as Ellen, which she retains after her Good Costume Switch. She also has this in Cure form, albeit with thigh-high boots rather than stockings.
Ako Shirabe (Cure Muse)
Voiced by: Rumi Oukubo
The princess of Major Land, after revealing herself as the masked Cure Muse. By far the most serious and pragmatic of the four Pretty Cures, her outward determination hides her emotional fragility in the face of the threat against her family. She can be incredibly blunt when criticising others.
Clark Kenting: Wore glasses on Earth to conceal her identity. Between that and her personality switch to Deadpan Snarker, it proved surprisingly effective.
Dark Magical Girl: Isolated herself from the other Pretty Cure and tried to find a way to help Mephisto on her own. Even after she loses the mask, she's constantly the pragmatic Grumpy Bear of the group.
Musical Assassin: Can attack and create barriers with a piano of energy. It's later revealed to be an ability of Major Land's royal family.
Power Makes Your Hair Grow: Applies to all the Cures, of course — but whereas the others just get longer, curlier hair, Ako's goes from extremely short to extremely long.
Token Mini-Moe: She's the youngest Cure not only in the Suite Pretty Cure team, but also in the entire franchise (beating out Hikari, Urara, and Erika)!
A mysterious masked warrior. She shows up on occasion to aid the Pretty Cure in protecting the innocent, but claims neutrality in the battle between them and Minor Land. She does not speak, instead allowing her Fairy Tone Dodory to speak on her behalf. She is later revealed to be Ako Shirabe, having taken up the disguise because she could not bear to fight her father- the Brainwashed and Crazy Mephisto- directly.
You Shall Not Pass: Pulls this when the Pretty Cure attempt to attack Mephisto directly. Unfortunately, it backfires after Mephisto uses the distraction to flee with all of the Notes.
The Precures' partners and the key to their transformation. Dori, Reri, and Lary are used for transformation into Cure Melody, Rhythm, and Beat respectively, while Miri, Fary, and Solry are used along with them for special attacks. Tiry serves as leader, and Dodori, the previously missing Fairy Tone, serves as the "voice" of Cure Muse.
Musical Theme Naming: Named after the "musical syllables" used in the modern solfège. Dodori is named as such because she's the higher "do", and not the first, like Dori is.
The Fairy of Sound who gave birth to all the sounds in this world. The other Fairy Tones were born from her. She usually resides inside the Healing Chest that was found in the dark forest.
Team Mom: Literally, for the Fairy Tones. She's where they all came from.
Upgrade Artifact: Allows cure Melody to transform into Crescendo Cure Melody.
Otokichi Shirabe
Voiced by: Keiichi Sonobe
The mysterious tuner of Kanon Town, who is working on a large organ. The previous King of Major Land, father of Aphrodite, and grandfather of Ako. Long ago fought and sealed away Noise.
The King of Minor Land who stole the "Legendary Score" to create the Melody of Sorrow. Actually the controlled King consort of Major Land, husband of Aphrodite, and father of Ako. He returns to normal with the efforts of the Cures and returns to Major Land.
Adult Child: As if his general demeanor wasn't evidence enough, it's driven home at one point when he's sitting on his throne with an enormous lollipop.
The Dark Side Will Make You Forget: It's all but stated that he became Brainwashed by the Noise of Evil after a failed attempt to retrieve the Healing Chest from the Evil Forest. While Mephisto remembers how frightening his expedition was, he can't remember the exact events that transpired due to the influence of the Noise of Evil.
Mephisto's second-in-command. A former Songstress of Major Land, she defected to Minor Land after Hummy was chosen over her to sing the Melody of Happiness. She is incredibly vain and prissy, and possesses the ability to shapeshift at will, often taking the form of a human girl called "Ellen". She later pulls a Heel Face Turn and becomes Cure Beat, who is covered in the Pretty Cure section.
Enigmatic Minion: Strays into this territory after she starts to fall out of favour with Mephisto, right around the time that Cure Muse first shows up. It's a Red Herring, and the "Siren is Cure Muse" theory is quickly investigated and disproved by the other characters.
Evil Former Friend: She and Hummy used to be the best of friends before her envy overcame her and she switched sides.
Meganekko: As Youko in episode 4 and Sakura in episode 8.
Morphic Resonance: Whenever she shape-shifts, she's always wearing a very unique-looking charm around her neck. By the time Hibiki and Kanade notice this, it's too late to be of any use: she pulls a Heel Face Turn and loses her shapeshifting ability shortly thereafter.
More than Mind Control: The Noise of Evil amplified her own insecurities and jealousy towards Hummy.
Musical Assassin: She can create Negatones with her voice, and generate explosive projectiles shaped like musical notes.
Not so Above It All: Wears an utterly ridiculous outfit in an early episode, which was pretty counter-intuitive to her mannerisms beforehand. (She claims that it was a special case because the plan was for her to get onto television.)
Adult Child: Acts the most outright childish of the Trio.
Brainwashed and Crazy: Was once one of the heroic "Three Musketeers of Major Land" before being corrupted by the Noise of Evil. That said, he's far more monstrous once he shows his true colors.
Butt Monkey: Before her Heel Face Turn, Siren would take her frustrations out on Falsetto by clawing out his hair.
The Dog Bites Back: Starts beating up Ellen, the other Cures, AND the rest of the Trio with shocking regularity.
Cute, but Cacophonic: Well, he's not exactly cute, but he's fairly mundane compared to Bassdrum and Baritone... and his voice is the most high pitched and shrill out of the entire trio.
Malevolent Masked Men: Gets a mask that is basically half a bird's black skull after his true form is revealed.
Super Senses: After the Trio gets their power up, Falsetto gets the ability to hear Notes from great distances.
Vile Villain, Saccharine Show: Once Falsetto takes over the bad guys, he means business. Not only is he more effective than Mephisto ever was, but he does things like order Bassdrum and Baritone to kill Aphrodite when they are holding her hostage. That's not to mention how he repeatedly abuses them, and though that's often played for laughs, the final time*
when they get in the way of an attack to save Aphrodite
most certainly isn't.
Whip It Good: Gains the ability to create a purple energy whip from his palm.
Then he wields a real one in the form of a cat-o-nine-tails later on.
Baritone
Voiced by: Youhei Oobayashi
Baleful Polymorph: Just as with Bassdrum, though with Baritone being a narcissist, it affects him much more badly.
Brainwashed and Crazy: Was once one of the heroic "Three Musketeers of Major Land" before being corrupted by the Noise of Evil.
Evil Genius: In sharp contrast to his comrades, Baritone prides himself on his intelligence. He finally gets to show it after the trio's upgrade, using his smarts to trap the Fairy Tones and become the new leader.
Sad Clown: Not really a clown, per se, but it's revealed that Noise, the so-called over the top villain and source of sorrow and despair, is actually quite sorrowful himself, and believes he's creating a utopia by removing music, and thus the feeling it creates, from the world.
Epic Hail: She promises to be there for Hibiki wherever she is needed, and boy does she mean it. It takes two seconds after Hibiki's Epic Hail for Waon to get there.
Satellite Character: He's probably just there to be lusted after. He is shown to have a more rounded personality later on, helping Ellen come to terms with some of her doubts on friendship and revealing that he's somewhat of a Fanboy of Hibiki's mom... and then he fades into the background again.
