Garuouga (ガルオウガ?) is the second-in-command of the Notraiders in Star☆Twinkle Pretty Cure.

Bio[]

Appearance[]

Garuouga is a muscular and quite imposing alien who is based on the Japanese creature Oni. He has blue skin, dark grey horns, sharp nails, and black sclera with dark grey pupils. He has a yellow diamond mark on his forehead. Garuouga's outfit consists of a huge navy blue cape/robe with a raised collar and purple shoulder pauldrons with gold lining, which he removes while fighting. He wears a black X-shaped strap on his chest with a round gold and purple buckle, and a white belt with a similar buckle. He also wears a gold bracelet with green diamonds on his left wrist and lavender pants with tan markings on the hips. As for footwear, he has dark grey boots with gold on the toes, ankles, and knees.

Personality[]

Garuouga is extremely loyal to Darknest, never questioning her commands. He is strategic, ruthless, and violent, and is not the type to give up easily. Being a pessimist, he believes that protecting things won't strengthen a person and the Cures are only spreading favoritism.

Although mainly a strong member of his organisation, he can be too vain when it comes to his physical capabilities. After being helped by the Cures, he softens up to them and is willing to let go of his grudge, helping Yuni and Lala return to their respective homes instead of pursuing Darknest.

Relationships[]

  • Kappard, Tenjo, and Aiwarn: He is their boss, from whom they take orders.
  • Darknest: His master who he was extremely loyal towards until Darknest betrayed him.

Etymology[]

Garuouga - Garuouga's name could be based on "garugaru", the Japanese onomatopoeia for a beast howling, and "ogre", the Western equivalent of the Oni, which alludes to his appearance.

Abilities[]

Garuouga is able to open up portals that can be used to teleport anyone to other planets in the galaxy, such as Earth. He can also use these portals to transport energies and attacks to other locations, such as redirecting the lasers fired by the Starscape Association's ship back at them. He can shoot green energy balls in varying sizes.

Garuouga has very powerful physical strength to inflict damage on his opponents and is also shown to have a great amount of endurance, withstanding the Rainbow Splash and the Southern Cross Shot attacks without effort.

History[]

Garuouga used to live on his own planet peacefully until it was destroyed. Having nowhere to settle down, he decided to join the Notraiders after Darknest promised to grant him power, where he became second-in-command.

He first appears in episode 4, ordering his colleagues to get the Star Princess Pens. Throughout most of the first half, he remains in the Notraiders' headquarters and did not actively attack.

It isn't until episode 31 that he decides to fight the Cures. He is incredibly powerful that he initially manages to defeat the girls, but he later exposes his weakness of not being able to breathe in space. Not wanting to give up easily, Garuouga follows the Cures to Earth just to avenge himself in episode 32, and also reveals his backstory, but is still overpowered.

In episode 41, he tries to get his revenge on the Cures after being powered up by Darknest, this time targeting Cure Selene. His power is overwhelming that the Cures can't counter him at first. During the battle, he keeps discouraging Selene by calling her naive and being pointless, telling her that he gave up everything including himself to Darknest just to seize power, but Selene doesn't give up. Instead, she unlocks her own Twinkle Imagination and is able to overpower him because she is able to start making her own decisions.

In episode 46, he along with Tenjo and Kappard are given a boost of twisted imagination so they can become more threatening. But after Darknest reveals herself as the Ophiuchus Star Princess, Garuouga realizes she had lied to him and was the one who destroyed his planet. He and the two generals nearly get killed by their twisted imagination, but the Cures save them.

In episode 47, after realizing that the Cures, Aiwarn, and the Starry Sky Association had rescued him and the other Notraiders, he softens up and is grateful towards them. He then joins forces with them to help fight Ophiuchus.

In episode 48, after the universe has been saved by the Cures, Ophiuchus hands Garuouga the bracelet and tells him that he could use it to seek revenge against her. But after being moved by how the girls were willing to do anything for Fuwa, Garuouga decides to help send Lala and Yuni back home with the bracelet's remaining power.

Episode 49 shows that 15 years after the final battle with Ophiuchus, he and the remaining Notraiders have settled down on their former headquarters and have changed it into a beautiful botanic garden.

Trivia[]

  • In spite of having formidable brute force, episode 31 reveals that he actually can’t breathe in outer space. It is implied that his bracelet might have granted him the ability to do so.
