Aida Mana (相田 マナ Aida Mana?) (or Maya Aida in the English Dub Glitter Force Doki Doki) is one of the five main Cures in Doki Doki! Pretty Cure and she is also the leader of the group. She is a girl who is always eager to do things for the sake of others.

Her Cure alter ego is Cure Heart (キュアハート Kyua Hāto?), or Glitter Heart in the Glitter Force Doki Doki dub. Her catchphrase is "Kyunkyun!" (キュンキュン! Kyun Kyun!?) which is the onomatopoeia that is used to express the tightening of one’s chest caused by the powerful warm feelings of love, which suits the symbol Mana represents as a Pretty Cure, the Heart; the dub changes this to "Feel the Doki Doki!".

Personality

History

Preseason

Since childhood, Mana had been friends with Rikka and Alice in elementary school. Four years prior to the season, a classmate from her elementary school found a puppy, and Mana decided to adopt and name him "Marshmallow". She grew very close with him, until one day when Marshmallow ended up being run over by a car and died while she was visiting her hospitalized grandmother Bando Isuzu. This had left a lasting and traumatic impact on Mana for a long time.

Becoming Cure Heart

When visiting Clover Tower, Mana comes upon a lost child named Michiko. After finding her mother, Mana notices the idol, MakoPi surrounded by fans. As the idol tried to push through the crowd, her pin falls out of her hair. Mana quickly picks it up and returned it. Shortly afterwards, she comes across a shopkeeper, who is selling pins. He gives Mana one for free, which she gladly takes. She then joins Rikka in a line to the top of the tower. But suddenly a Jikochuu appears and starts heading towards the top of the tower. Realizing people are up there, Mana makes for the stairs, not realizing a pink rabbit like fairy is following her. She just makes it to the top to save Michiko, in which she then gives the Jikochuu her attention. Impressed, Sharuru introduces herself to Mana and beomes the Lovely Commune for Mana to use to transform. However, Mana doesn't know the right phrase and yells out "Transform!". Nothing happens but luckily Sword appears to purify the Jikochuu. But Sword is captured by Marmo's Jikochuu which has Mana sprung into action. This allows her Lovely Commune and Lovead to glow which gives her the ability to finally transform into Cure Heart. DDPC01

Getting over what happened, Heart starts fighting the Jikochuu, freeing Sword in the process. However, Sword is knocked off the side of the tower, but Heart quickly saves her. Once Sword was safe, Heart cleansed the Jikochuu with My Sweet Heart and the damage is reversed. Heart then tries to befriend Sword but is rejected.

Revealing Her Alias To Rikka

Upon returning from her first battle, Mana is greeted by her worried classmates and teacher. On the way home, Rikka suspects Mana is hiding something and tries to get her to spill the beans. But when Mana tells her she became a Pretty Cure, Rikka doesn't believe her. The next day at school, Mana tries to tell Rikka again but is stopped by Sharuru and Raquel, who tell her it isn't a good idea to reveal her identity in public. But suddenly, another Jikochuu appears and freezes anyone it came across. With no other choice, Mana transforms into Cure Heart, to which Rikka realizes Mana was telling the truth the whole time. During the battle, Heart is hit by the red beam and turns to stone, so Rikka steps in to try and help. After a short while, Heart is finally freed once Rikka pressed the button on the Jikochuu's back. Now that she could move again, Heart quickly purified the Jikochuu. On the way home, Rikka forces Mana to carry her school bag but forgives her for everything.DDPC02

Finding the Remaining Cures

Cure Diamond

After investigating Mana's Lovead, Rikka and Mana head to Pig Tail for dinner. As they part ways, Mana asks Rikka to join her as a Cure, with Raquel thinking she'd be perfect as Mana's partner but she declines the offer. The next day, Mana and Rikka find Joe. Rikka tries to question him, but he forcibly gives Rikka a Lovead and leaves. The two fairies then realize a Jikochuu had appeared, so the girls rush over to its location. Mana transforms but as she struggles to fight the Jikochuu, Rikka remembers when she first met Mana. Her Lovead shines, and with Raquel as a Lovely Commune, Rikka manages to transform into Cure Diamond. She quickly cleanses the Jikochuu with Twinkle Diamond, and accepts her duty as a Cure. As they de-transform, the duo realize Lance has gone missing, with Alice appearing with the missing fairy and her butler, Sebastian.DDPC03

Cure Rosetta

Mana and Rikka are invited to Alice's house, where they find out Alice had footage of Mana transforming in Clover Tower. Mana is shocked and tries to lie but to no avail. However, with the help of Alice, she and Rikka find the next Jikochuu. Unfortunately, they arrived on top of Alice's car, which made Heart get motion sickness. After a quick recovery though, she and Diamond successfully defeat the Jikochuu, while Alice sat watching.

As the day went on, Mana and Rikka explained to Lance about Alice's short temper. When Mana was bullied by some boys for protecting Alice, Alice lost her temper and fought the boys using the differ fighting techniques she learned. As night fell, another Jikochuu appeared but this time Heart and Diamond really struggled. Thankfully Alice finally gained confidence to transform into Cure Rosetta, and gave Heart the time she needed to purify the Jikochuu. After the battle, Mana learns that Makoto is actually Cure Sword, thanks to the video footage Alice had.DDPC04

Makoto and Cure Sword

Thanks to learning about where Makoto was, the trio head for Yotsuba TV Station. Without thinking, Mana barges into Makoto's room and asks her to join their team. However, Makoto gets angry and kicks Mana out. Later on, a Jikochuu appears while Makoto was singing so Mana and the others transform. Seeing Makoto get cornered by the Jikochuu, Heart rescues her. A few seconds later, lights suddenly turned off but were switched back on to reveal Cure Sword, who purified the Jikochuu with Holy Sword. Cure Sword once again refused to team up with the trio. After D.B gave the three girls tickets to Makoto's meet-and-greet, turned up with peach puns as an apology for her rudeness days prior.DDPC05

A few days later, Makoto turns up at Pig Tail to film a cooking show. Mana is delighted but is shocked as she watches Makoto mess up again and again. Mana then decided she'd help teach Makoto how to cook, which turned out to be a success because when filming day arrived, Makoto managed to make the omelette perfectly. Just as the girls could enjoy the omelette, Ira arrived and summoned a Jikochuu. Once the civilians left the restaurant, the transformed, with Makoto finally transforming into Sword before the trio. Cure Sword easily purifies the Jikochuu but just the girls decides to de-transform, Bel arrives and sends them to another dimension.DDPC06

Going Back to Trump Kingdom

Mana wakes up in Trump Kingdom where she learns about Makoto's origins. Shortly afterwards, the girls are chased down by frog Jikochuus. As they jump across a hole in the bridge, Makoto fails to make the landing but Mana reaches out to grab her hand. After dragging Makoto back to safety, Mana is led to the room of mirrors only to discover Bel broke every mirror. Despite it seeming like there was no hope left, Mana laughed and transformed to fight Bel. As the other Cures distract Bel, Heart wounds him with her attack. As he watches helplessly, she and the other find the remains of the mirror they needed, which transports them back home. There, Mana promises Makoto that she'll find Marie Ange.DDPC07

The Mysterious Baby's Debut

Upon visiting Joe's shop, they find a mysterious egg and several Loveads. The girls try cracking the egg when a light glows from within it, and out comes a baby. Excited, Mana finds the baby cute as Joe walks into the shop and tells the girls that the baby's name is Ai. When Ai starts to cry, Mana quickly summons some milk to quieten her down. When Ai wouldn't stop crying out on the walk, Mana trying singing but it only made things worse. To make matters worse, Marmo appeared and created a Jikochuu that made people sleepy. So when Mana and the others transformed, Heart found herself falling asleep. This made Ai upset, so her cries woke the Cures up, giving Heart the strength she needed to purify the Jikochuu. DDPC08

On the way to school, Joe forces Ai onto herself and Rikka, telling them they had to look after her for the day. Realizing they couldn't look after Ai at school, they entrusted her with Sharuru and Raquel. Only for Ai to cause havoc across the school. During the chaos, a Jikochuu appears so Mana and Rikka transform, later being joined by Alice and Makoto. The Jikochuu proved to be too strong but thanks to Ai, the Cures gained a power up, allowing Heart to purify the Jikochuu. After school, Mana returns the basket with a sleeping Ai and fairies to Joe.DDPC09

Befriending Regina

While on her way to school, Regina appears and apologizes for fighting them in the last attack. She then quickly tries befriending Mana much to Makoto's dismay. Mana decides she'd befriend Regina only for Regina to spend all day trying to get Mana to skip school to play with her. Once she is able to hang out with Regina, Mana shows her around town and introduces her to Ai. Before Mana could chat to her friends, she is dragged away by Regina and has ice cream with her. However, Regina gets upset hearing Mana talk about her friends all the time and comes up with the idea of erasing Mana's friends. Worried, Mana tries to find her friends while Regina creates a Jikochuu to attack Makoto. Mana arrives and is told by Regina to stop being friends with Rikka and the other. Mana refuses and transforms into Heart to help the others purify the Jikochuu. Heart tries to convince Regina to still be her friends, only for Regina to disappear. DDPC16
