    Pretty Cure & Partners 

Hibari Esumi (Cure Velocity)

Voiced by: Chiaki Omigawa

"The Burning Crimson Highway Star! Cure Velocity!"

  • Girlish Pigtails: Even though she isn't exactly girly. Her hair is really short and really messy so they come out as two puffballs instead.
  • Gratuitous Foreign Language: Occasionally peppers her speech with Spanish and Italian words, no thanks to "Uncle Hant". This shows the most whenever she's particularly angry.
  • Hair-Trigger Temper
  • Hot-Blooded
  • Line-of-Sight Name: She was named in a similar way to Tsubomi, but under different circumstances: Sōsuke actually wanted a son to name after Retsutaka, but since the child wound up being a girl, he had to settle for a Last-Minute Baby Naming, naming her "Hibari" after a skylark perched on the window of the hospital.
  • Parental Sexuality Squick: Averted. Not only she's perfectly aware of her parents' sex life, she is actually quite comfortable about it. It's the thought of Speedor and BearRV having sex that freaks her out.
  • Quirky Household: Even if the Go-ongers other than her parents and Hiroto aren't related to her, Hibari treats them as if they were — going as far as calling Renn her "grandmother" — and loves them with all her heart.

Kaori Kurenai (Cure Fangoria)

Voiced by: Fuyuka Ōura

"The dawn sleeps and whispers my name — Cure Fangoria!"

  • Bare-Fisted Monk / She-Fu: When not relying on dark magic attacks. Being skilled in gymnastics helps.
  • Casting a Shadow
  • Chained by Fashion: As Fangoria — like her father, though to a lesser extent.
  • Dark Is Not Evil
  • Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette: Her hair is a very dark auburn rather than black (although she does get a black horned hairstyle when she transforms) but in either civilian or Cure form, she qualifies. She's really nothing but nice.
  • Feminine Women Can Cook: to make up for her mom's Lethal Chef traits.
  • Finishing Move: Pretty Cure Empress Moonbreaker (by herself), Pretty Cure Speed Queen Shooter (with Cure Velocity)
  • The Nose Knows: Kaori loves perfume, and wants to become a perfumer someday... unfortunately for her, her father's odd violin varnish ingredients tend to disagree with her sense of smell a lot. In fact, the one time she truly got angry at Wataru was when she discovered he used a carrion flower in one particular batch.
  • Personality Blood Types: Just like Hibari, Kaori's blood type matches her father's actor's — Koji Seto carries a type A.
  • Silk Hiding Steel: A nice Girly Girl with strong inner iron.
  • Tomboy and Girly Girl: Girly Girl to Hibari's Tomboy
  • Yaoi Fangirl: While she keeps it a secret, she certainly has a thing for it — right down to knowing the different types of semes and ukes.

Engine Machalcon

Voiced by: Hiroaki Hirata

Hibari / Cure Velocity's Engine partner and, if you can call him one, "mascot", as well as Speedor and BearRV's son. Mostly the same as he was in Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, but older and with several modifications.

Barnabas

Voiced by: Kunihiro Kawamoto

Kaori / Cure Fangoria's fairy partner, who came from the future to help her fight against the Neo-Fangires. His species is actually a future divergence from the Kivat race.

  • Bat Out of Hell: Downplayed. While he almost looks the part, he's no more evil threatening than his bretheren in the end. He's just a mild jerk.
  • Deadpan Snarker: Name something, anything, and he will have some kind of smartassed remark about it.
  • Fastball Special: Fangoria uses him in her Barnabas Bullet attack, similar to her mother and Engine BearRV's Bullet Crash.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Despite the fact that he likes to gripe about anything and everything, and that he and Kivat-bat III are on less-than-friendly terms (the former even going so far as to outright insult the latter at times) he cares very much for Kaori's safety and wants to be rid of the Neo-Fangires as much as she does.
  • The Rival: To Kivat.
  • Shout-Out: Now, where have we heard the name Barnabas before...?
  • Trademark Favorite Food: Eventually, he gains an affinity for marshmallows.

    Shin-Gaiark 

Pollution President Batcheerina

Leader of Shin-Gaiark, and daughter of Babatcheed.

Water Pollution Minister Dorojones

Earth Pollution Minister Fukeccio

Air Pollution Minister Kebrunhilde

Voiced by: Tomoko Nakamura

Black King

The leader of the Neo-Checkmate Four, and descendant of the original Fangire King.

Red Queen

Silver Bishop

Golden Rook

    Classmates 

Masahiro Nago

Voiced by: Hiroyuki Yoshino

Megumi and Keisuke Nago's son.

  • Big Eater: Like his mother, which makes his embarrassment of her own Big Eater traits hypocritical at best.
  • Black-and-White Morality: Very unwavering in his viewpoints of good vs. evil, to the point where he won't listen to anyone who says otherwise.
  • Jerkass: So far, he is quite possibly the only person that Kaori — who is friends with nearly everyone that's not a villain — actually dislikes. Hibari isn't quite fond of him either.
  • Odd Name Out: Alongside Yuiko, he is one of the few classmate characters to not be named after a Go-onger/Kiva actor.

Yuiko Tsubakikoji

Co-president of the Perfumer Club that Kaori starts at school.

Yoshiyuki Usui

Hitoshi Kataoka

Akihiro Kumai

  • Custom Uniform: A bit moreso than Hibari. In his case, alongside the rolled-up sleeves, he wears his tie looser than other students and his jacket tied around his waist in a manner reminiscent of Akane Hino/Cure Sunny.
  • Dreadful Musician: His dream is to become a rock star. Unfortunately, this trope means that he won't be getting very far...
  • Japanese Delinquents: A rather mild example, compared to some of the school's actual punks.

Wakana Koike

Aimi Ebisawa

    Other Returning Characters 

Please note that only tropes regarding their appearance in Super Pretty Cure Time go here. For tropes specific to the character in general or their series, go to the appropriate pages.

Sōsuke Esumi

Hibari's father, formerly known as Go-on Red of the Engine Sentai Go-onger.

  • The Ghost: Despite being Hibari's father, he rarely makes any appearances other than in photographs. Word of God justifies this as being that he finally made it big as a racecar driver, therefore barely has any free time to visit his newfound family.

Miu Esumi note 

Voiced by: Yumi Sugimoto

Hibari's mother, formerly known as Go-on Silver of the Engine Sentai Go-onger.

Hiroto Suto

Voiced by: Hidenori Tokuyama

Hibari's uncle, formerly known as Go-on Gold of the Engine Sentai Go-onger.

Wataru Kurenai

Voiced by: Koji Seto

Kaori's father, formerly known as Kamen Rider Kiva.

  • Expository Hairstyle Change: Unlike Sōsuke, his hair seems to have gotten messier as time went on. note 
  • Give Her a Normal Life: Well, he certainly wanted this for his daughter, but the Powers That Be said otherwise.
  • Will Not Tell a Lie: While Sōsuke and Miu have kept their heroic exploits secret from Hibari, Wataru's adherence to this trope meant that he and Saki told Kaori about their pasts much earlier. This inevitably leads to some awkward situations whenever Hibari visits Kaori's family...
    • However, Wataru has yet to tell his daughter that she's quarter-Fangire.
    • He also hadn't told her about Mio, his first love, though this was mostly out of forgetfulness than deliberate withholding.

Saki Kurenai note 

Voiced by: Rina Aizawa

Kaori's mother, formerly known as Go-on Yellow of the Engine Sentai Go-onger.

  • One-Note Cook: Her Sweet Tooth was enough to propel her from cake shop employee to owner, but she still can't cook anything else without dumping sugar or other sweets into it. The worst of her efforts usually end up in Wataru's varnish, to her dismay.
  • Open-Minded Parent: Saki is utterly thrilled at the prospect of Kaori becoming an "awesome heroine" like she once was, and even offers her fighting tips. Kaori mostly takes this in stride.
  • Second Love: For Wataru.

Kivat-bat the 3rd

Voiced by: Tomokazu Sugita

Wataru's bat partner, who stuck around with him long after the events of Kiva.

  • Head Pet: Likes to sit on Kaori's head when he's not in his violin perch.
  • The Rival: Barnabas is his, mostly because Kivat was expecting a member of his own race to aid Kaori and is somewhat bitter about it.

    Other New Characters 

Chieri Nakagawa

Voiced by: Yuko Oshima

  • Abusive Parents: When she was younger, she was constantly mistreated by her mother, so she used music as a way to keep herself from cracking under the pressure.
  • Fiery Redhead: Inverted. Her hair is as red as red could be, but personality-wise she's pretty tranquil and laid-back. Unless, of course, the subject matter is the importance of being an idol.
  • Idol Singer: When she started her career as part of the Girl Group Mettayo☼!!, she was a textbook example of this. Nowadays, her image has become that of a mature and elegant yet quirky woman — more or less like Lady Gaga, but downplaying the "quirky" part — with a more techno-pop style.
  • Punny Name: Done in a similar way to The Cherry Project. Given her overarching cherry motif...
