Tabata Nao

Tabata Nao is Hikari's good friend and classmate, being a Year 1 student at the Verone Academy in Pretty Cure Max Heart. She and her best friends Hikari and Miu were the characters of the day in FwPCMH15.

Much like her hero Nagisa, Nao is sporty but girly, loving clothes and liking boys. She wishes to be exactly like Nagisa, and is very friendly and happy-go-lucky. She has loved basketball ever since elementary school, and in the episode of her debut she asks Nagisa and ikari to play with her against some high school boys. Nao is a fan of many cool people, such as someone named Yan-sama and Hasekura-kun, the boy Nagisa went on a date with on her birthday.
