| 60 | * HeroicBSOD: |
| 61 | ** During the Dreaming Session, Naru falls under pressure after Bell's extremely impressive Prism Show, some of it in part due to her not realizing how high the stakes are in a professional tournament. She starts crying when she can't see the color of her music, and it takes Rinne and Koji to help her recover. |
| 62 | ** During the Winter White Session, [[spoiler:Rinne refuses to see Naru and tells her goodbye. This causes Naru to think she hates her, and she becomes so distressed that the Prism Sparkle and Lovelin disappear from her heart, leaving her unable to perform Prism Lives. When Bell shows that she supports Naru, and Hiro suggests that Rinne might be testing her resolve, Naru recovers and puts on a great Prism Show with Bell. It turns out that Rinne didn't actually hate her, but said goodbye because she was going to sacrifice herself to duel against June.]] |
| 63 | * IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: [[spoiler:Naru encourages Ito to accept that she and Koji are in love with each other, but since she's ObliviousToLove, she doesn't realize she's in love with Koji as well, and she spends the aftermath crying on Rinne's shoulder. In a way, it brings her closer to Hiro after he gets rejected by Bell, and she suggests they form a Broken Hearts Club together.]] |
| 64 | * ImCryingButIDontKnowWhy: [[spoiler:After Naru sends Ito off to patch things up with Koji, she starts wondering why she's crying even though she's happy for her. It turns out that Naru had a crush on Koji, too.]] |

| 96 | * ClassRepresentative: Ann is the representative of her class, which Naru states during Ann's introduction video in episode 22. |
| 97 | * DoesNotLikeSpam: Ann is sick of senbei because she lives in a senbei shop. Every time Kazuki brings them to a tournament, she always tells him off for it. |
| 98 | * GreenEyedEpiphany: Ann starts becoming aware of her feelings for Kazuki after seeing him hug Wakana, and she fully acknowledges it by the time the Winter White Session takes place. |
| 99 | * HotBlooded: Out of all the Prism Stone employees, Ann is the easiest to get riled up, as she takes matters very seriously. |
| 100 | * ImageSong: An's song was "Sweet Time Cooking Magic (Harapeko Nan Desu Watashi tte)", which she received from Kazuki (who, in turn, received it from Koji). |
| 101 | * NightmareFetishist: Ann is extremely fascinated with aliens and the otherworldly. When she first notices her sweets are being eaten at Prism Stone, she's excited to set up a camera to record the footage.

| 102 | * NobodyCallsMeChicken: Ann stubbornly refuses to back down when she's taunted, which ultimately leads her to accepting Wakana's challenge even though she knows that Wakana has more experience in competing in tournaments. |
| 103 | * ObliviousToLove: Even after Bell spells it out for her, Ann doesn't get that Koji had a crush on Ito until Otoha explains it in layman terms. Also, it takes a long time for Ann to figure out she has a crush on Kazuki. |
| 104 | * PreAssKickingOneLiner: "Time for a delicious show!" |
| 105 | * SamaritanSyndrome: Ann is unable to leave people who need help, causing Wakana to mockingly call her "Miss Defender of Justice." For a while, she also becomes in charge of the advice column on Prism Stone's website. |

| 107 | * SupremeChef: Ann is talented at making sweets. She can make giant-sized sweets with no trouble at all (to Chisato's delight), and she can make senbei as well due to growing up in a senbei shop. |

| 112 | * TrueBlueFemininity: Ann's theme color is blue and holds many traits valued as feminine in Japan, such as having a SweetTooth. |
| 113 | * VitriolicBestBuds: Ann and Wakana didn't get along well at first due to Wakana holding onto a four-year-old grudge on her. After misunderstandings were cleared up, they become best friends (and {{Friendly Rival}}s over Kazuki's affections). |

| 128 | ---- |
| 129 | * AloofAlly: At first, Ito doesn't accept Naru and Ann's request to do the make-up at Prism Stone, and when she finally accepts, she tells them "she doesn't want to get personally involved with them." |
| 130 | * BoyishShortHair: Ito has short hair and maintains a masculine look that emphasizes her "cool" personality. |
| 131 | * BrutalHonesty: Ito is very outspoken, sometimes at the cost of offending or scaring away others. Because of her tendency to be honest, she finds it annoying when Otoha apologizes and encourages her to speak her mind. |
| 132 | * {{Catchphrase}}: Ito describes things unfavorably with "Lukewarm" and "Hot" for things she likes. |
| 133 | * CharacterDevelopment: She becomes much more nicer and stops being rude, thanks to Otoha, Koji and the others. [[spoiler:She also makes up with her family.]] |
| 134 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: Ito's parents are divorced, and her father basically StoppedCaring for everything. [[spoiler:This is because when her father tried to get his old band back together six years ago, he got into a car accident that ultimately killed his best friend, who happens to be Koji's father.]] Ito hopes that by buying her father's old guitar from the pawn shop, it might bring her family back together. |
| 135 | * DontYouDarePityMe: Ito rejects Koji's attempts at a LoveConfession at first because she thinks he only feels sorry for her. |
| 136 | * FaceOfAThug: In the 3DS game ''Kirakira My Design'', she intimidates the player character when they first meet, to which Ann calls her out on. You have the option to tell her you're scared of her, and if you do, she gets flustered and insists she's not scary. If you tell her you aren't, Naru points out that she's secretly happy. |
| 137 | * ImageSong: Ito's solo Prism Show song is "[=BT37.5=]", [[SingerSongwriter which she wrote herself]]. |
| 138 | * LonerTurnedFriend: Ito is seen with no friends at school, and everyone is too scared to approach her, even their teacher. After working at Prism Stone, she eventually mellows out and genuinely becomes Naru and Ann's friend. |
| 139 | * LoveCannotOvercome: [[spoiler:Ito breaks up with Koji during the White Winter Session after she finds out her father caused the car accident that killed his father. Despite her feelings for him, she does it to protect everyone from the painful reminder. Koji, however, feels that it's better facing the memory to help move on, and it's ultimately his determination to stay with her that helps them remain a couple.]] |
| 140 | * MeaningfulName: Her name means "string". [[spoiler: Her mother tells Ito she's the string that ties up her family.]] |
| 141 | * ParentalAbandonment: Ito's parents are divorced, and despite her living with her father, she interacts with her mother more by letter. Her father is too detached and hung up on his own issues to mind her, so she's the one who ends up caring for him. |
| 142 | * PerpetualFrowner: In most official artwork, Ito is always seen frowning and pouting. She also rarely smiles. |
| 143 | * PreAssKickingOneLiner: "Let's do this!". Post-CharacterDevelopment, she says, "Let's connect the strings in our hearts!". |
| 144 | * RedStringOfFate: Fitting for her name, which means "string", Ito's third Prism Jump is called "Red String Summer of Love". Koji ends up using this Prism Jump in ''Anime/KingOfPrism''. |
| 145 | * RefusalOfTheCall: She refuses to join Prism Stone at first, but she accepts when she realizes that she can use her earnings to buy her dad's old guitar from the pawn shop. |
| 146 | * SharedFamilyQuirks: She and her brother Yu both use alias and dislike being called by their real name. |
| 147 | * SolomonDivorce: Ito was originally going to move to Hokkaido with her mother and her younger brother, Yu, after her parents' divorce, but she chose to stay with her father. |
| 148 | * TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Ito has a more masculine look than the rest of the girls, such as opting for pants and being TheRockStar of the group. She is also immediately cast for the role of the prince during Otoha's tea party Prism Show and their duo Prism Show. |
| 149 | %%{{Tomboy}} is meant to be an index since the variety of Tomboys is great enough that no one trait can be called essential. Please put all your examples under one of the various traits associated with Tomboys. |
| 150 | * TookALevelInKindness: Ito is considerably rude to Naru and Ann at first, but after spending time with her, she comes to accept them as friends. Her interactions with Otoha also show how empathetic she can be, especially when she encourages her to perform in front of Bell and Wakana shortly after Bell kicks her out of her group. Ito mellows out completely by the time she starts dating Koji, as she's learned to accept her feelings. |
| 151 | * {{Tsundere}}: Ito gets embarrassed when she lets Naru and Ann be on FirstNameBasis with her for the first time. She also gets extremely huffy towards Koji, mostly in part because she refuses to admit she likes him. |

| 165 | Rinne is a mysterious girl who has lost both her memories and emotions. She's usually unemotional, but when it comes to Prism Shows, her entire personality changes. She stuns the Prism Show scene by revealing she is able to do four Prism Jump combinations. |
| 166 | ---- |
| 167 | * TheAce: Rinne is able to perform four Prism Jumps in a row, something that only the current Prism Queen, June Amou, can do. [[spoiler:This is because, like June, Rinne is also a messenger from the Prism World.]] |
| 168 | * BreakHisHeartToSaveHim: [[spoiler:During the Winter White Session, Rinne refuses to see Naru and only tells her, "Goodbye", which sends her into a HeroicBSOD. The reason why Rinne did this wasn't because she hated Naru -- she registered to compete with June for the sole purpose of dueling her, where the loser will be absorbed into the winner, and she was ready to lose the battle. Luckily, it ends in a tie, so neither one was absorbed.]] |
| 169 | * ButterflyOfDeathAndRebirth: [[spoiler:All Rinnes from the Prism World have wings that resemble a butterfly's wings, which seems to be their unique identifier -- Naru's Rinne has Rainbow Feathers, while June has Night Dream Feathers. However, as Prism Messengers, all Rinnes are fated to lose their memories once their mission is over when they return to the Prism World. Afterwards, they are replaced by a new Rinne, who takes over their bodies and continues spreading the Prism Sparkle in a different world.]] |
| 170 | * CharacterDevelopment: She's the typical mysterious girl at first, and barely talks, but thanks to Naru, she becomes more cheerful and learns things like how important it is to keep promises and say thanks. Rinne grows to care for her and would do anything to keep her safe, even promising to be by her side if anything happens to her. |
| 171 | * ComicallySerious: Since she's an EmotionlessGirl, some of the way she shows support and enthusiasm come across as hilarious, such as chanting, "Freedom!" along with Kazuki during Ann's Prism Show. |
| 172 | * ContinuityCameo: Rinne first appeared in ''[[VideoGame/PrettySeries Pretty Rhythm: My Deco Wedding]]'', the UsefulNotes/Nintendo3DS port of the original ''[[Anime/PrettyRhythmAuroraDream Pretty Rhythm]]'' arcade game. |
| 173 | * EmotionlessGirl: In her official character description, Rinne is described to have missing emotions along with lost memories. [[spoiler:This is because no two Rinnes can exist in the same world, and June had prevented her from absorbing her and taking over her body.]] |
| 174 | * FlashStep: Rinne can appear anywhere at random times, only to disappear afterwards. |
| 175 | * GuestStarPartyMember: Rinne is part of Prism Stone and Happy [=RAIN=] InNameOnly because Chisato won't let her compete in Prism Shows. [[spoiler:This is because Rinne is a Prism Messenger and she is forbidden by the laws of the Prism World to compete, as it would prevent the Prism Sparkle from spreading.]] Rinne, however, does show up uninvited during Naru's Prism Shows, though. |
| 176 | * HeroOfAnotherStory: Rinne first appeared in the game ''My Deco Rainbow Wedding'', which was a direct sequel to ''Anime/PrettyRhythmDearMyFuture''. ''Rainbow Live'' picks up from where the game left off. |
| 177 | * HiveMind: [[spoiler:Rinne is the name describing the female-type Prism Messengers from the Prism World. Each one is sent to a world to spread the Prism Sparkle, and once her duties are over, she must return to the Prism World and allow a new Rinne to merge with her body. The new Rinne will obtain parts of her previous memories, but will ultimately lead a new life and mission.]] |
| 178 | * ImageSong: Her song is "Gift". |
| 179 | * LaserGuidedAmnesia: [[spoiler:The reason why Rinne lost her memories is because June is present, and there can only be one Prism Messenger in the same place. However, Rinne loses her memories at the end anyway, because Prism Messengers must lose their memories once they return to the Prism World when their duties are over.]] |
| 180 | * MysteriousWaif: [[spoiler:Rinne is from the Prism World, which explains why she can perform many impossible feats so effortlessly.]] |
| 181 | * MysticalWaif: [[spoiler:Rinne is gifted in Prism Shows because she is from the Prism World sent to maintain the Prism Sparkle, which sustains Pair Friends, the rinks, the Prism Stones, and the Prism Jumps.]] |
| 182 | * NewTransferStudent: Halfway into the series, Rinne enrolls into Naru's school. |
| 183 | * NotQuiteHuman: [[spoiler:Rinne is not a human. She's an entity from the Prism World sent between worlds to maintain the Prism Sparkle.]] |
| 184 | * ReiAyanamiExpy: Has short blue hair, and is relatively emotionless but very powerful. |
| 185 | * SugarAndIcePersonality: Rinne is cold at first, but thanks to spending time with Naru, she soon starts to open up around others. |
| 186 | * TheQuietOne: When Rinne talks, she only says one word or two. |
| 187 | * TheStoic: Rinne rarely shows emotions at first, until Naru helps draw them out from her. [[spoiler:The reason why Rinne is emotionless is because there can't be two Rinnes in the same world, and June had prevented her from taking over her body.]] |
| 188 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: She loves Genghis Khan. |
| 189 | * WhenSheSmiles: At first it's rare to see Rinne smile, but when she does, Naru and the others get surprised. |

| 224 | * BrokenAce: Bell is great at Prism shows, languages, studies, and is very pretty and admired. However, her EducationMama pressures her to be perfect and won't accept anything less. Bell is jealous of Naru because she's always happy, and doesn't seem to have any problems, yet she has talent for Prism Shows. She also thinks people around her won't love her if she's not at the top. |
| 225 | * CharacterDevelopment: Beginning in episode 24, Bell realizes through Wakana and Otoha that they love her no matter what, and that she doesn't have to be perfect all the time. That helps her let go of some of the self-resentment she holds towards herself. Naru also helps her jump towards the realization to just be herself instead of what others want her to be, causing her to become nicer. |
| 226 | * ChildhoodFriends: Bell holds an OddFriendship with Wakana, who she's known since they were in elementary school. Even though they seemed like they were only around each other out of convenience, [[spoiler:Wakana happens to be her first friend, and when she was told she was moving away, she begins crying and begging her not to leave. Bell feels guilty about it because she essentially made Wakana rebel against her parents just to stay]]. |
| 227 | * CutenessProximity: Bell surprisingly loves mascot characters. Her first instinct to seeing Kappippi was to jump up and hug him. |
| 228 | * DeathGlare: Before her CharacterDevelopment, she was quick to give angry glares at Otoha and the other Edel Rose female students. |
| 229 | * DefrostingIceQueen: Bell is a PrivilegedRival to Prism Stone and is cold to them at first, but thanks to Naru, Wakana, and Otoha, she starts becoming friendlier. |
| 230 | * ElegantClassicalMusician: Her Prism Instrument is a violin, and outside of Prism Show Bell herself is also a talented violinist. |
| 231 | * EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Bell is the top student of Edel Rose's female division, leading Otoha and the other Edel Rose female students admire her to the point they seem to have a crush on her. |
| 232 | * FieryRedhead: She has bright red hair and despite how she seems, she is very passionate. |
| 233 | * FreudianExcuse: Bell is extremely rude and haughty at first because of the competitive environment in Edel Rose instilled by Jin, where fame is valued over friendship, and the near-impossible expectations brought upon her by her own mother. Because of this, Bell feels her only self-worth is her perfection and believes no one will love her if she's not the best. |
| 234 | * GetOut: Early on in the series, when Bell is extremely agitated, she asks people to leave the room before unleashing her wrath alone. Wakana knows whenever this is going to happen and even suggests to Hiro, amidst his protests, that this is the best thing they can do for her during this time. |
| 235 | * GracefulLoser: [[spoiler:Bell accepts her defeat with a smile when Happy Rain beats Bell Rose during the Try Groovin' Session.]] |
| 236 | * GreenEyedMonster: Before Bell's CharacterDevelopment, she was quick to get jealous at the thought of someone more successful than her. This is mainly in part because both her mom and Edel Rose have been forcing her to be the best, and she feels that if she's not the best, then people won't love her. Specific examples include: |
| 237 | ** Bell is rude to Naru at first because Naru had gotten hired at Prism Stone while she didn't, but this is one out of many examples. The underlying reason is because Naru is innately charismatic and talented in Prism Shows, while Bell had to work her ass off to get to where she was today. Furthermore, it irritates her how Naru can be so happy in spite of everything, while Bell is so angry and lonely from the pressure of having to constantly work hard. This intensifies after the Dreaming Session -- despite [[spoiler:Bell beating Naru by a landslide]], Naru was able to ''get people talking'' about Prism Lives, so much that [[spoiler:a little girl asked to see her instead of Bell]]. |
| 238 | ** The whole reason why Otoha starts working at Prism Stone for a while was because Bell kicked her out of the group for getting more attention. |
| 239 | * HardWorkHardlyWorks: [[spoiler:Even though Bell beat Naru at the Dreaming Session, more people are talking about Prism Lives than Edel Rose's victory. It's a major gut punch to Bell when a little girl requests to see Naru instead of her at her mother's company party.]] |
| 240 | * HeelFaceDoorSlam: In episode 17, right after Otoha and Wakana receive Pair Friends, you'd expect Bell to go under CharacterDevelopment and receive hers, right? [[spoiler:Wrong. After Bell overworks herself to perform at Dear Crown, she rejects Otoha's attempt to reach out to her, which causes Wakana to call her out and her Pair Friend to roll away. Fortunately, she gets better thanks to CharacterDevelopment.]] |
| 241 | * JerkassHasAPoint: The Prism Stone team decides to register for the Dreaming Session just so Ann could have a chance to duel Wakana, whereas Naru and Ito would sit out of the competition. Bell calls them out for not taking such a professional event like this seriously, especially when so many other Prism Stars have been training for months for the tournament. |
| 242 | * TheLeader: She's the leader of Edel Rose Team S (later renamed Bell Rose) [[spoiler:and becomes the leader of the female section of Edel Rose.]] |
| 243 | * LonelyAtTheTop: Hiro Hayami considered her as a "Lonely Queen" because her number one status keeps her far away from everyone else. |
| 244 | * {{Ojou}}: Bell is wealthy, lady-like, and cultured due to her upbringing. |
| 245 | * ThePerfectionist: She is striving to stay at the top in both Prism Shows and violin believing otherwise there will be no point and also trying to keep up with her mother's expectations of being a perfect child. |
| 246 | * ThePowerOfFriendship: She becomes better at Prism Shows and is more confident in herself with her friends' love. |
| 247 | * PreAssKickingOneLiner: "I'll show you the power of roses!" |
| 248 | * RedIsHeroic: Before her CharacterDevelopment, Bell represented more of RedIsViolent instead due to her trying to upstage Naru (including getting Hiro to convince her to join the Dreaming Session just so she could humiliate her). However, after she mellows out, Bell becomes one of Naru's staunchest supporters and tries her best to help out Prism Stone. Despite not being the main character, [[spoiler:Bell also ends up winning the title of Prism Queen from June, therefore assisting Naru in saving the Prism Sparkle]]. |
| 249 | * RichBitch: Bell comes from a very wealthy family and goes to an elite all-girls school, La Seliana Girls Academy. She is also a PrivilegedRival in the fact that she attends the elite Prism Star school, Edel Rose. After her CharacterDevelopment, she becomes more of an {{Ojou}}. |
| 250 | * TheRival: Bell sees Naru as her rival ever since she was passed up for her for Prism Stone's manager position and is aware of how much latent talent Naru has in Prism Shows. She later sees June as her rival. |
| 251 | * SchoolIdol: Besides being a [[IdolSinger Prism Star]], Bell is the most popular girl at Edel Rose. |
| 252 | %%* SignificantGreenEyedRedhead |
| 253 | %%* SmugSmiler |
| 254 | * SomethingAboutARose: She’s heavily associated with red rose, from her unit’s name Bell Rose to her Prism Jumps, as she’s a sexy, elegant and passionate woman whose status at the top is intimidating to others. |
| 255 | * TookALevelInKindness: Bell is hostile to Prism Stone at first, but after episode 24, she becomes significantly nicer to them. She also becomes one of Naru's closest friends, especially during the White Winter Session. |
| 256 | * TsurimeEyes: Bell has sharp eyes that show off her serious personality. |
| 257 | * VillainousBreakdown: When Bell forces herself to do a Prism Live when she really can't, she loses it. She has her own AngerMontage where she rips up pillows and destroys the entire room. |

| 273 | * AffectionateNickname: Bell calls her "Oto". |
| 274 | * AmbiguouslyGay: Otoha idolizes Bell and is extremely dedicated to her ever since Bell gave her a Prism Stone when she forgot hers during Edel Rose's entrance exams. She also gets a NoseBleed when Bell practices with her for the Winter White Session and gushes over any compliment she gives her. She also has {{Imagine Spot}}s of herself as the princess to Bell and Ito's princes. Moreover, Otoha is the only one of the main six who does not have a significant relationship with the [[LoveInterest three boys]] from Over the Rainbow, and she is thus excluded from their AudienceParticipation scenes in ''Anime/KingOfPrism''. The only hint that suggests she might be AmbiguouslyBi is when Femini tells the other Pair Friends that her favorite of the boys is Hiro. |
| 275 | * ApologizesALot: Otoha has a tendency to apologize profusely, even regarding things that aren't her fault. Ito calls her out on this and tells her to stop apologizing so much.

| 277 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: |

| 279 | ** During the Prism Queen Cup's Over the Rainbow Session, [[spoiler:she shakes everyone out of being {{Nervous Wreck}}s by screaming that they're not being "fairytale". When she performs Hat Trick Star, her voice also gets shockingly deep as she kicks a soccer ball into the net.]] |
| 280 | * BitingTheHandkerchief: In the final episode, Otoha is seen comically seething in jealousy and biting a handkerchief when she sees Bell teaching another female Edel Rose student. |
| 281 | * CatchPhrase: "Like a fairytale!" |
| 282 | * CrazyPrepared: Due to being Bell's assistant, who is quite high-maintenance herself, Otoha is always prepared for emergency situations. When Chisato is complaining about the heat, Otoha readily supplies her with cooling pads... Not to mention, she always has a tea set with her ready! |
| 283 | * FriendshipTrinket: One of Otoha's treasures is a Prism Stone containing Black Ribbon Pumps, which Bell lent to her for Edel Rose's entrance exams. She still keeps it today as a token of their friendship. |
| 284 | * GirlishPigtails: Wears her hair in loose pigtails and her Image Brand is literally ''Feminine''. |

| 289 | * LuminescentBlush: Otoha tends to blush a lot when she daydreams about romance, or when Bell compliments her. |

| 291 | * TheNoseKnows: Otoha is able to "smell" the flavor of music, often comparing it to tea. |

| 293 | * ShipperOnDeck: Otoha ships Koji and Ito. When they are first shuffled together for the Winter White Session, she barrages Ito with questions about their love life. When Ito's father asks the two why they like each other, Otoha interrupts with an excited, "I've always wanted to ask that too!" |
| 294 | * ShrinkingViolet: She's quiet, shy, and tends to blend into the background when Bell and Wakana are around. When she is forced out of Bell's group for a while, she learns to be honest to herself. |
| 295 | * TaremeEyes: Her eyes are gentle and soft to match her sweet temperament. |
| 296 | * TokenGoodTeammate: Bell and Wakana are very unfriendly at first, while Otoha is nice and quiet. During the Dreaming Session, she is also a great sport to Ito and is excited when the latter decides to compete after all. |
| 297 | * TomboyAndGirlyGirl: During the Winter White Session, Ito and Otoha have a {{Tomboy}} and girly girl dynamic due to their image. On two occasions, Otoha played the princess to Ito's prince. |

| 313 | ---- |
| 314 | * AcademicAthlete: Based on her family's interactions, she's only allowed to stay in Edel Rose if she keeps up her grades, meaning that her grades must be very good. |
| 315 | * AnimalMotifs: She resembles a cat a lot by her hairstyle, her cat smile, and the way she says "nya" in her speech a lot. |
| 316 | * AwesomenessByAnalysis: How she managed to help Bell in the past, when she caught Bell crying because of her imperfect test score. She told Bell to switch their test papers, having been able to predict Bell’s mother’s reaction and knew what to say as she visited Bell’s home to get her test score back so that her mother would understand that Bell did good. |
| 317 | * CatGirl: Wakana has a cat-like smile, uses "nya" in her speech, and her silhouette during her solo Prism Shows sometimes depicts a cat. Even her behavior is like a cat, as she often uses roundabout ways of expressing how she feels. |
| 318 | * CharacterDevelopment: [[spoiler: The reason she's so rude to everyone around her is that she doesn't want to be hurt, because his father's job made Wakana move many times and saying goodbye is very painful for her. She accepts Ann's friendship eventually, and becomes more honest and free. She even smiles when she falls when trying to perform a Prism Jump at the Prism Queen Cup.]] |
| 319 | * ChildhoodFriends: Wakana has been best friends with Bell since childhood and had even persuaded her parents to let her stay in Tokyo just to be with her. [[spoiler:She was also Ann's childhood friend, but since she was only at her school for 1.5 months, Ann doesn't remember her.]] |

| 321 | * ForgottenFriendNewFoe: [[spoiler:Wakana transferred to Ann and Kazuki's elementary school when she was in 4th grade. During that time, Ann had taught her how to do Prism Jumps. Since Wakana only attended their school for 1.5 months, Ann and Kazuki don't remember her at all.]] |
| 322 | * FortuneTeller: Wakana can tell fortunes with Prism Stones, and when Bell Rose gets the opportunity to work at Prism Stone, she operates their fortune-telling corner. |
| 323 | * TheGadfly: Wakana often drops taunts that rile up Bell and Ann. |
| 324 | * GracefulLoser: [[spoiler: In the Prism Queen Cup, she falls when trying to perform a seventh Prism Jump, earning one of the lowest scores in the competition. She accepts it smiling, and even laughs about it.]] |
| 325 | * LettingHerHairDown: Wakana lets her hair down in the third opening. |
| 326 | * OddFriendship: At first glance, Wakana seems as though she doesn't care about Bell beyond being a Prism Star partner. However, she is the only person who truly knows how to deal with Bell's emotional being. [[spoiler:When they attended the same elementary school, Wakana personally witnesses the pressure Bell faces from her EducationMama daily and saves her from being scolded. She and Bell become fast friends to the point where she begged her parents to let her stay when they were considering moving again.]] |
| 327 | * TheRival: Wakana considers Ann her rival [[spoiler:especially due to an incident in elementary school]]. They become {{Friendly Rival}}s after issues between them have been resolved. |
| 328 | * PerformanceAnxiety: Wakana is too honed in on Edel Rose's rigid structures and being forced to obey her father that she becomes afraid of taking risks. Kazuki encourages her to be "free" and stop focusing on avoiding mistakes, which helps her overcome her performance anxiety. |
| 329 | * StepfordSnarker: Wakana is very unfriendly and childish when talking to others, sometimes even to her own teammates, but she's just hiding her insecurities because she doesn't want to be hurt. |
| 330 | * SmugSmiler: Pre-CharacterDevelopment, Wakana often has a smarmy grin whenever she talks down on Ann or riles up Bell. |
| 331 | * {{Tomboy}}: Out of the Bell Rose members, she's the most tomboyish. Naru even cites this as a reason to pair her up with Ito during the Winter White Session because they both have a boyish image and look great in pants. |
| 332 | * UsedToBeASweetKid: Wakana used to be quiet and demure due to her upbringing, and she was very shy as a child. In present time, she's rude to Otoha and Ann, while seemingly acting like she's only with Bell out of convenience at times. She becomes kinder after her CharacterDevelopment, though she's no longer demure. |
| 333 | * VerbalTic: She sometimes adds "nya" to the end of her sentences. |
| 334 | * VitriolicBestBuds: After Wakana mends her friendship with Ann, they become best friends again. However, Wakana becomes quite combative again when [[spoiler:she tries to hide that she's moving again during the Winter White Session]] and when she tries to get Ann to admit that she has a crush on Kazuki. However, Ann has learned how to handle her personality swings and helps her be honest about what she wants, while Wakana urges her to recognize her true feelings. |

| 365 | Hiro is one of the top Prism Stars at Edel Rose and overwhelmingly popular with girls. Heavily associated with yellow roses. He will do anything to achieve his goals. He doesn't get along with Koji for some reason. |
| 366 | ---- |
| 367 | * AffablyEvil: Hiro is quite selfish, but he gets along with everyone except for Koji (and Ito and Kazuki to some extent). |
| 368 | * BigManOnCampus: Hiro is very popular at Kakyoin Academy due to being a Prism Star. |
| 369 | * CatchPhrase: "The only one who can sing Koji's songs best is ''me'', Hiro Hayami!" He also tends to say "Good night", when leaving, which is also said during his "Starlight Kiss" Prism Jump. |
| 370 | * ChickMagnet: Due to being a popular Prism Star, Hiro has a lot of {{Fangirl}}s. During Kakyoin Academy's cultural festival, he's surrounded by girls from other high schools. |
| 371 | * CharacterTics: If he's wearing glasses, sometimes he'll take them off and bite the frame. |
| 372 | * TheCharmer: Hiro is very nice to girls and motivates them. He also uses this to advantage -- on one occasion, he manipulates Naru into joining the Dreaming Session under Bell's request by encouraging her to explore her capabilities on a professional level (even if he never actually believed it in the first place). |
| 373 | * CurtainsMatchTheWindow: His hair matches the honey-gold shade of his eyes. |
| 374 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: [[spoiler:Hiro grew up extremely poor, in a run-down apartment with shabby clothing. His mother (who was implied to be a sex worker at the time) also ignored him a lot, and he never knew his father. Kou Himuro found him dancing in the park one night and decided to offer him a scholarship to Edel Rose and Kakyoin Academy. All in all, Hiro feels indebted to Edel Rose for saving him from hardship that he's desperate to debut to repay them and reunite with his mother.]] |
| 375 | * DisappearedDad: [[spoiler:Hiro grew up without a father. In ''Pride the Hero'', his mother tells him that she'll reveal who he is when she's ready, but she assures him that he is a kind person.]] |
| 376 | * EstablishingCharacterMoment: Hiro is introduced in episode 6, but everyone only really remembers him for his {{Yandere}} face when he drops all nice pretense towards Koji during the Dreaming Session, uttering his CatchPhrase for the first time. |
| 377 | * EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: [[spoiler:The reason why Hiro was willing to do anything to debut, including stealing Koji's song, was because he comes from a poor background and he wanted to start earning income to support his mother. And if he quit? Jin would destroy his career by revealing his DarkAndTroubledPast, making it all for naught.]] |
| 378 | * FlowerMotifs: Yellow roses are used in Hiro's Prism Jumps. Yellow roses also symbol jealousy in Japanese flower language. |
| 379 | * FreudianExcuse: Hiro may be extremely manipulative, [[spoiler:but it makes sense according to his childhood. He grew up under extremely impoverished circumstances, and when he was offered a way out, he was desperate to cling onto anything that would bring him to the top if it meant never returning to that life again.]] |
| 380 | * HeelFaceTurn: In episode 45, [[spoiler:Hiro sacrifices his Prism Star career by confessing that it was built upon lies on live broadcast, revealing that he grew up poor and that Jin had forced him to take credit for "Pride." He apologizes to his fans and Koji.]] |
| 381 | * HeroicBSOD: In ''[[Anime/KingOfPrism King of Prism: Pride the Hero]]'', Hiro tries to ask Koji for help after Jin buys the copyrights to "Pride" and registers it as Louis' song. When Koji reveals he can't help him, Hiro spends the majority of the movie moping until the Edel Rose freshmen, Hijiri, and his mom show they support him. |
| 382 | * HiddenHeartOfGold: Even though Hiro's methods are questionable, he really wants the best for his friends. He tries to warn Bell about Jin, offers advice to Naru, and [[spoiler:only riles up Koji and Kazuki because he wants them to take advantage of their talents]]. Naru even tells him to his face that he's "actually a NiceGuy." |
| 383 | * ImageSong: The song Hiro mostly performs to is "Pride." |
| 384 | * ManipulativeBastard: Hiro admires Koji so much that he will do ''anything'' just to sing his songs exclusively. Several instances include: |
| 385 | ** He encourages Naru to join the Dreaming Session not because he actually thinks she has a chance at winning -- he wanted to show Koji that he wasted his song on her, as he expected from the beginning that she would crumble under pressure due to her lack of experience in Prism Shows. |
| 386 | ** He takes advantage of Koji's crush on Ito by threatening to commission her for a song if Koji wouldn't let him use "Pride." |
| 387 | * MrFanservice: He is the only recurring male Prism Star in the series who has debuted professionally, and a lot of his Prism Jumps casually reveal his navel and hip bones. |
| 388 | * LonelyAtTheTop: He openly says he relates to Bell's struggle when she mentions that being lonely is natural for someone at the top. After Bell no longer cares about being the best, he sadly says that he will continue aiming for the top. |
| 389 | * MissingMom: [[spoiler:Hiro has been living apart from his mom ever since he was taken in by Kou Himuro. During his HeelFaceTurn moment, he tells her on live television that he still loves her and wants to see her again. She returns to visit him in the ''Rainbow Live'' finale.]] |
| 390 | * PeerlessLoveInterest: He's in love with Bell, but she's so perfect that he's aware that he can never have her. |
| 391 | * PetTheDog: Even though Hiro is manipulative towards Koji and Prism Stone, he genuinely cares for Bell. When she becomes stressed out during the Heartbeat Days Session and Try Groovin' Session, he often keeps Wakana and Otoha updated and goes out of his way to allow them to be with her. |
| 392 | * PrinceCharming: Hiro's Prism Show performance mostly channels a princely persona. [[spoiler:He also wins the Prism King Cup in ''Anime/KingOfPrism'', showing that he's stepped up in more ways than one.]] |
| 393 | * PromotedToPlayable: Whereas the games never featured the male characters, Hiro becomes the first male character to become playable in the UsefulNotes/Nintendo3DS game ''Anime/PriPara & Pretty Rhythm: [=PriPara=] de Tsukaeru Oshare Item 1450!'' |
| 394 | * SmugSnake: He's rather condescending to Koji and Kazuki, calling them cowards for running away from problems. |
| 395 | * StepfordSnarker: Hiro is kind towards the girls, even if he seems like he's hiding something, but he constantly intimidates Koji and Kazuki. [[spoiler:This is because he's angry that Koji and Kazuki are talented in songwriting and dancing respectively and wasting their potential, especially when people of their caliber have the ability to change the landscape of Prism Shows and Edel Rose. While everyone else is oblivious and Bell only has a slight idea of what is going on, Kazuki is the first to truly realize that Hiro's constant provocation is a cry for help.]] |
| 396 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Hiro likes apple-and-honey curry, and it is one of the things that brings him out of his funk in ''Pride the Hero''. In ''King of Prism: Prism Rush! Live'', you can buy apple-and-honey curry for him to improve his condition. |
| 397 | * UsedToBeASweetKid: He used to be a kind-hearted and pleasant guy but was influenced and controlled by Jin's principles of absolute perfection. |
| 398 | * VillainousBreakdown: Hiro loses it ''every time'' someone other than himself sings Koji's songs, simply because he can't handle the thought of Koji sharing what was important to them with anyone else. Hilariously, Hiro's voice actor mentioned in the 2013 Christmas event that his favorite line from Hiro happened to be him gasping and freaking out from this moment. Some noticeable examples include: |
| 399 | ** After Naru accidentally lets it slip that Koji wrote her song despite Koji's warnings, Hiro pushes her to register for the Dreaming Session despite her being a newbie, just to rub it in Koji's face that he shouldn't have done that. Instead, Rinne gets Koji to sing for Naru to focus on her song, and she pulls off what the audience felt was the best performance in the tournament [[spoiler:(even though she earns 0 karats for going over the time limit)]]. This is also the first time Hiro's princely façade breaks. |
| 400 | ** While Hiro is trying to convince Jin to let Koji write his second single, he flips out when he finds Koji hanging out with Kazuki and challenges Kazuki to a re-match out of jealousy. [[spoiler:Then he freaks out when he finds out that not only did Koji write Kazuki's song, but Kazuki was able to pull it off with dancing skills that matched his own, if not better. Also, the lyrics of the song were Koji's message to him, reminding him of an old conversation they had about wanting to become "heroes" instead of winners. He's so overwhelmed that he doesn't even bother trying to outmatch him.]] |

| 415 | Koji is a quiet, kind-hearted boy who's always found singing and playing his guitar on the rooftop where other people can hear him, or rather, where his mother cannot hear him. A genius songwriter, the songs he writes have a certain charm to them that they are considered to be on a demonic level. |
| 416 | ---- |
| 417 | * AdvertisedExtra: The members of Over the Rainbow are billed first in the first two ''Anime/KingOfPrism'' movies, but the plot actually focuses on Hiro and Shin. Koji is also largely absent from ''Pride the Hero'' and doesn't participate in the Prism King Cup due to being PutOnABus to Hollywood. |
| 418 | * AffectionateNickname: He is called "Kou-chan" by Kazuki's cousin, Naomi. |
| 419 | * AnguishedDeclarationOfLove: When Koji tries to explain to Ito about why he rearranged the song she originally wrote for Hiro, he says that [[DeclarationOfProtection he wants to protect her]] after noticing she felt the same pain he did. However, this causes Ito to think he simply feels sorry for her and she tells him to leave. |
| 420 | * AssKicksYou: In ''Anime/KingOfPrism'', one of his Prism Jumps is called "Honey Kiss", where honey literally comes out of his butt. [[spoiler:This also is a source of {{Narm}} when Hiro starts sobbing over Minato's apple and honey curry, as it reminds him of their Prism Jumps.]] |
| 421 | * BirdsOfAFeather: Koji relates to Ito because they are both musicians, and he feels he relates to the pain he senses through her music. [[spoiler:And, as it turns out, the pain they relate to is the same because they're connected by the same tragedy involving their fathers.]] |
| 422 | * BroodingBoyGentleGirl: He's the brooding boy to Naru's gentle girl. |
| 423 | * ChildhoodFriends: He's been friends with Kazuki since they were kids. |
| 424 | * DefrostingIceKing: Koji is distant and cold at first, but he starts opening up more when Naru approaches him and begins defending his friends from Hiro. However, it's Ito who brings out his more affectionate side, as he starts exhibiting more of his gentle and protective nature when he's around her. |
| 425 | * DisappearedDad: [[spoiler:Koji's father died six years ago, and he later learns that he was involved in a car crash caused by Ito's father.]] |
| 426 | * ExpositoryHairstyleChange: In flashbacks, his hair was even shorter than his current cut. In ''Anime/KingOfPrism'', his hair grows even longer and he ties it in a short ponytail. |
| 427 | * GoodIsNotSoft: In the beginning of the series, Koji is gloomy and bitter, but when Naru is able to prove that his songs make her happy, he starts opening up more. He also displays more of his gentle side when he falls in love with Ito and looks out for her. |
| 428 | * GreenEyedMonster: Koji admits to Ito that he gave Hiro his song not just because he was afraid Hiro would take credit for hers, but mostly because he didn't want Hiro to perform a song specifically written by her. |
| 429 | * HairAntennae: Koji has two strands on the top of his head. When Happy [=RAIN=] goes on a class trip to Hokkaido, Ito sends him a photo of a water fountain because it reminds her of his hair. |
| 430 | * HairTriggerTemper: Koji is easily riled up when it comes to people disrespecting his music and Hiro attempting to blackmail him through approaching Naru and the others. |
| 431 | * ImageSong: Koji's theme song is "Reboot", which he always sings on the rooftop, but he's never had a solo Prism Show. |
| 432 | * LoveAtFirstNote: Koji becomes drawn to Ito after watching her Prism Show for the first time. |
| 433 | * LoveConfession: Bell, who can feel the "love" in music, notices that Koji's rearrangement of Ito's song was his way of confessing that he loves her. |
| 434 | * NiceGuy: Koji is gentle, patient and kind. |
| 435 | * PutOnABus: In the first two ''Anime/KingOfPrism'' movies, Koji goes to Hollywood to help pay off Edel Rose's debt and thus doesn't compete in the Prism King Cup. |
| 436 | * SpellMyNameWithAnS: His name is romanized as "Koji" on most official merchandise, but in the ''Anime/PriPara'' movie, his name was written as "Kouji." |
| 437 | * SupremeChef: Koji is talented at cooking due to cooking for his mother at home. In ''Anime/KingOfPrism'', this becomes one of his known specialties, as he sometimes cooks for the Edel Rose freshmen, and Minato only becomes interested in Prism Shows through his food-themed Prism Jumps. |
| 438 | * TellMeAboutMyFather: [[spoiler:Koji can't find information about his father because his mother won't tell him anything, so he opts to ask Ito's father instead.]] |
| 439 | * TookALevelInCheerfulness: He was mostly gloomy in ''Rainbow Live'' and has been described as such by Bell and the Pair Friends. Kazuki tells Ito that Koji used to be rowdy, which she finds hard to believe. However, once all of Koji's problems are solved at the end of ''Rainbow Live'', he becomes pretty open. In ''Anime/KingOfPrism'', he's smiling and winking way more often. |
| 440 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: In ''King of Prism: Prism Rush! Live'', you can buy coffee for him to improve his condition. |
| 441 | * TragicKeepsake: The guitar he uses belonged to his late father. |
| 442 | * WeUsedToBeFriends: Koji and Hiro were {{Friendly Rival}}s when they attended Edel Rose, but when Hiro started caving into Edel Rose's obsession for fame and debut, Koji decided to leave Edel Rose completely. The fact that Hiro claimed songwriting credits for "Pride", a song that Koji wrote, still is a source of tension between them until this day. When Hiro TookALevelInKindness at the end of ''Rainbow Live'', they become VitriolicBestBuds. |

| 458 | ---- |
| 459 | * TheAce: [[spoiler:Hiro reveals near the end of the series that Kazuki had once applied to Edel Rose and had the top score. However, Kazuki wasn't accepted because he was a fan of Rei Kurokawa and street-style performers, which goes against Jin Norizuki's philosophy.]] |
| 460 | * AffectionateGestureToTheHead: Since Kazuki is seen a big brother figure, he often pats his friends' heads. He even has a Prism Jump called "Burning Love Heart" where he does it to the audience. |
| 461 | * AnimeHair: White and spiky, which is not uncommon for a boy in a kids' show like this one, but ''unheard of'' for a male idol in an idol anime. |
| 462 | * AttractiveBentGender: ''Shiny Seven Stars'' reveals that Kazuki won first place in the Miss Kakyoin Contest by crossdressing. |
| 463 | * BigBrotherInstinct: Everyone sees Kazuki as reliable, because he's very good at taking care of others. Even though he's ObliviousToLove, he's quite insightful about other people's feelings and knows how to address their flaws without drastically upsetting them. |
| 464 | * BrokenPedestal: He's seen as an idol to many aspiring street-style Prism Stars, but in ''Anime/KingOfPrism'', he draws critics from Taiga and Alexander, who once admired him, for using academy-style tactics (which involve pandering to female audiences) instead of the street-style he originated from. Kazuki actually doesn't care between using either styles just as long as he's able to get people into Prism Shows. |
| 465 | * CatchPhrase: "Burning!" and "Freedom!" |
| 466 | * ChildhoodFriends: Kazuki is Koji's childhood friend. Ann also refers to him as her childhood friend but politely defers to him as mostly her senior. |

| 468 | * DanceBattler: Kazuki is the character most involved in Prism Show duels. He has dancing matches with Hiro twice, and in ''Anime/KingOfPrism'', he battles Alexander in the first movie. |
| 469 | * EvenTheGuysWantHim: In ''Shiny Seven Stars'', Hiro and Koji reveal that Kazuki won the Miss Kakyoin Contest by a landslide when he crossdressed. Note that Kakyoin Academy is an ''all-boys'' school. |
| 470 | * ImageSong: Koji gives him the song "Freedom", which he first uses during his re-match with Hiro. |
| 471 | * NiceGuy: Kazuki is seen as reliable by all his friends and he's constantly being described as someone who's really good at taking care of people. |
| 472 | * SpellMyNameWithAnS: Kazuki's name has been romanized as both "Kazuki" and "Kaduki" on official merchandise. |
| 473 | * ObliviousToLove: He immediately gets it when Bell tells him that Koji likes Ito, but he's oblivious when it comes to people having feelings for him, such as Wakana and Ann (later on). When his cousin tells him to get a girlfriend, he outright says he doesn't care about these sorts of things because he'd rather spend time with his friends. |
| 474 | * SamaritanSyndrome: Kazuki is always seen helping others out and he can't leave anyone in trouble alone. |
| 475 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Kazuki likes senbei and often brings them as a snack for Ann during tournaments, much to her dismay. In ''King of Prism: Prism Rush! Live'', you can buy senbei for him to improve his condition. |

| 491 | ---- |
| 492 | * BigEater: The reason why the cakes are disappearing at Prism Store is because Momo has been eating them all. When Ann makes a life-sized gingerbread house for Otoha, Momo has already eaten a quarter of it by the time she's able to show it off. |
| 493 | * BlatantLies: When the Prism Stone employees first find Momo, Chisato and DJ Coo first claim that Momo is Chisato's Pair Friend. Riiiight. [[spoiler:Actually, she turns out to be DJ Coo's Pair Friend in a flashback.]] |
| 494 | * BodyHorror: Chisato reveals she is Momo after the first quarter of the series by opening up her human body. The Prism Stone employees freak out in horror. |

| 544 | The current Prism Queen and founder of Dear Crown. Naru admires her, saying that she wants to be like her and suits Dear Crown clothes. |
| 545 | ---- |
| 546 | * TheAce: She became the youngest Prism Queen at the age of 13 and is able to do four Prism Jump combinations in a row, a feat no one else was able to pull off before Rinne appeared. [[spoiler:This is because June is a Prism Messenger, just like Rinne.]] |
| 547 | * AnimeHair: She's a very important character to the story, and both the color of her hair and its absurd hairstyle particularly help her stand out. |
| 548 | * AntiVillain: [[spoiler:She only wants to stay with Hijiri, but by staying in Naru's world as the Prism Queen, she's suppressing people from spreading the Prism Sparkle since no one can top her.]] |
| 549 | * AnxietyDreams: [[spoiler:During Naru and Rinne's duo Prism Show at a charity event, June suddenly gets a vision of the seven girls performing the ceremony that will send her back to the Prism World. She decides to participate in the next couple of tournaments to prevent this from happening.]] |

| 551 | * {{Ballet}}: June incorporates ballet into her Prism Shows and her dress is essentially a fancy tutu. |
| 552 | * BroughtDownToNormal: [[spoiler:The Prism Goddess turns June into a human to let her stay by Hijiri. As a result, June loses the ability to do Prism Jumps, meaning she cannot perform in Prism Shows anymore, and she also loses all of her memories from the time she was a Prism Messenger, meaning she has forgotten who Hijiri is. She gets her memories back from Louis in ''[[Anime/KingOfPrism King of Prism: Pride the Hero]]'', but not her ability to perform Prism Jumps]]. |
| 553 | * CantCatchUp: Because June is already able to perform five Prism Jumps after the Heartbeat Session, the girls find it nearly impossible to beat her when she partners with [[spoiler:Rinne]] for the Winter White Session. The stakes are raised even higher during the Over the Rainbow Session, [[spoiler:where the girls are obligated to beat her ''no matter what'' if they want to continue the existence of Prism Shows in the world]]. |
| 554 | * EvilCounterpart: [[spoiler:She is the preceding Rinne who wants to stay with Hijiri even if it means that the Prism Sparkle will disappear, whereas the current Rinne is trying to prevent her from doing so.]] |
| 555 | * ExpendableClone: [[spoiler:June fears losing her memories with Hijiri once she has to be replaced with a new Rinne, which causes her to act out against their rules. However, since she violated them, she's at risk of being killed/absorbed by a new Rinne (which Rinne tried during their Winter White Session duel) or die herself for spending too much time on Earth.]] |
| 556 | * ForbiddenRomance: [[spoiler:As a Prism Messenger, June is not supposed to fall in love with humans, but she does anyway with Hijiri. She decides to cut ties with the Prism World to be with him.]] |

| 558 | * GratuitousFrench: June's Prism Jumps, L'amour de L'ange (Angel Love) and La Flamme D'amour (Flame of Love) are in French. |
| 559 | * ImageSong: Her song is "Nth Color", which is about dedicating her love to Hijiri. Everyone cries when they first hear it. |
| 560 | * ImprobableHairstyle: Her hairstyle is two large RegalRinglets sprouting out from a tiny ballerina bun. |
| 561 | * LaserGuidedAmnesia: [[spoiler:At the end of the series, the Prism Goddess decides to grant June's wish to stay with Hijiri by turning her into a human. However, she loses all of her memories from when she was a Prism Messenger, but she gets them back thanks to Louis in ''[[Anime/KingOfPrism King of Prism: Pride the Hero]]''.]] |
| 562 | * LoveHurts: [[spoiler:Jin alleges to the media that the only reason why June is the Prism Queen was because Hijiri pulled a few favors, so Hijiri tells the media that he and June are not romantically involved. For a while, June was desperately certain that Hijiri loved her, even though Rinne had warned her not to trust that feeling too much because her body will fall apart faster. So, when June hears that from Hijiri, it causes her body to get even weaker. When Hijiri finally makes an AnguishedDeclarationOfLove, it's too late to save her.]] |
| 563 | * LoveMakesYouEvil: [[spoiler:She's more misguided than she is "evil", but she doesn't care that her overstaying her mission is causing the Prism Sparkle to disappear just as long as she gets to stay with Hijiri. She claims she can get Hijiri to spread the Prism Sparkle when he's no longer in condition to do that, as he can no longer compete in tournaments.]] |
| 564 | * MysteriousWaif: [[spoiler: Just like Rinne, she's from the Prism World.]] |
| 565 | * MysticalWaif: [[spoiler:June is a Prism Messenger, explaining her inhuman performance skills at Prism Shows.]] |
| 566 | * MysticalWhiteHair: June has long, silver hair, and she is also the only person who can pull of four Prism Jump combinations until Rinne appears. [[spoiler:This is because June ''is'' Rinne, or more specifically, one of Rinne-type Prism Messengers from the Prism World.]] |
| 567 | * NotQuiteHuman: [[spoiler:June is a messenger from the Prism World.]] |

| 570 | * PreAssKickingOneLiner: "May the Prism shine down on you!" |

| 572 | * ThePowerOfLove: [[spoiler: She uses her love for Hijiri to achieve seven jumps in a row and stay in this world.]] |
| 573 | * PurpleIsTheNewBlack: June's outfit is mostly black, but it is highlighted by deep violet, showing that PurpleIsPowerful. |
| 574 | * RegalRinglets: When June puts her hair up, it becomes curled in ringlets. |

| 576 | * SecretlyDying: [[spoiler:Since June cut ties to the Prism World, she cannot remain on Earth for very long due to her Night Dream Feathers draining her energy. Her duel with Rinne exacerbates her decay, and she finally "dies" during the Prism Queen Cup, allowing the new Rinne to merge with her.]] |
| 577 | * UndyingLoyalty: June is heavily devoted to Hijiri. |
| 578 | * UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: [[spoiler:It's her fault the Prism Sparkle is disappearing, because her status as the current Prism Queen is suppressing the humans' ability to spread the Prism Sparkle. She's also the one who caused Rinne to become an empty shell because two Rinnes aren't supposed to exist in the same dimension, and she had destroyed Rinne's wings before they could merge.]] |

| 614 | * EvenEvilHasStandards: In ''Anime/KingOfPrism Shiny Seven Stars'', [[spoiler:Jin becomes uncomfortable when Sanada gives Taiga a 50% score penalty.

However, from a meta standpoint, Jin is no different and has a long list of similar (if not worse) things he has done to his rivals. Some of these things include giving Hijiri a CareerEndingInjury, getting Rei Kurokawa disqualified, and publishing lots of false or exaggerated rumors about June, Hiro, and Ryo Yamada (to the point Ryo actually had to quit his career early).]] |
| 619 | * ManipulativeBastard: He constantly manipulates his students and is the reason Edel Rose has a hostile environment, setting up situations that pit students against each other in order to stay and debut.

Jin also has the mass media under his control and can easily ruin anyone's livelihood through bribery and scandal. |

| 624 | * TechnicianVersusPerformer: One of the core philosophies that Jin hammers into the Edel Rose students' heads is that precise jump combinations and movements are the key to scoring high in tournaments. He cares very little about Prism Lives and doesn't believe the "Prism Sparkle" exists. |
| 625 | * VillainousBreakdown: Suffers from one when Hiro does a HeelFaceTurn in Episode 45. |
| 626 | * WeCanRuleTogether: When June won the Prism Queen Cup four years ago, he offered her to help him run Edel Rose together, as he was crowned the Prism King. However, she promptly rejects him to follow Hijiri. |

| 628 | * YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Jin is quick to eliminate students as soon as they show any sign of weakness. When the female students are training for the Prism Queen Cup, he humiliatingly expels one student for falling while training. |
