Bio

Appearance

Personality

Kururun is a seal-like fairy who goes at their own pace, and isn't very smart.

Relationships

• Laura: Their caretaker, and they are good friends, though sometimes Laura has trouble understanding them.
• Natsuumi Manatsu, Suzumura Sango, and Takizawa Asuka: Kururun become friends with them after they volunteer to help them search for their lost delivery item.
• Ichinose Minori: Kururun is the closest to Minori out of the Cures. She is also the only one that is able to understand their speech.

History

Kururun is requested by the Mermaid Queen to deliver an important item to Laura, but they lose it on the way and they end up getting washed up on the beach. They meet the girls, who volunteer to help them retrieve the item. After the item, which turns out to be some sweets from the Queen, is found, Kururun decides to stay with them. ^TRPC07

When the Disciplinary Committee inspects the Tropical Club's room, Kururun and Laura hide behind the board to prevent themselves from getting noticed. After the Mermaid Aqua Pot gets confiscated by Kakuta Masami, Kururun accompanies Laura to retrieve it. Kururun, who is riding on a skateboard, is later spotted by Masami, but Kururun is hidden by the bushes when the girls and the rest of the Disciplinary Committee try to see what Masami saw, so nobody believes that Masami had seen a seal on a skateboard.^TRPC12

When Laura is locked up in the Witch of Delays' mansion's dungeon, she finds and reunites with Kururun. Kururun then tries to help Laura by getting the keys, but accidentally exposes themselves to Elda who holds them captive, until Laura frees them. They later rescue Laura after Butler attacks her and is glad that she is safe.^TRPC17

After Manatsu shows off the Premium Melon Bread she won, Kururun notices that she has left it behind, so they decide to help Manatsu put it into the Mermaid Aqua Pot's fridge. However, they end up making Laura eat the bread without checking. Kururun later explains and apologizes via their gestures, but the girls forgive them anyway.^TRPC20

When the school press visit the Tropical Club, Kururun accidentally makes a sound, which nearly exposes them, until the girls pretend they're a talking stuffed animal, and Manatsu tells them they can't move. They soon take Manatsu's warning seriously and decide to not move, until a Chou Zettai Yaraneeda almost attacks them. Fortunately, Summer rescues Kururun after realizing she left them behind, until they both get knocked out by one of the Chou Zettai Yaraneeda. Kururun later decides to find the rest of the girls, only for Papaya to mistake them as an enemy and shoot them by accident. After they explain what happened, they stay in the Mermaid Aqua Pot for the rest of the battle.^TRPC29

Knowing that Asuka is going on her graduation trip, Kururun and Laura sneak into Asuka's bag, which shocks and angers Asuka when she finds out. After Laura leaves with the three other girls, Kururun is left behind and is confused when Asuka reacts in a frustrated way.^TRPC31

Kururun Kururun! Kuru Kururun!
くるるんくるるん！くるくるるん！
Kururun Kururun! Kuru Kururun!

Cure Kururun (くるくるるん, Cure Kururun^?) is Kururun's Pretty Cure alias. In order to transform, they need Cure Summer's Tropical Pact and Heart Kuru Ring. Cure Kururun has no special abilities as the alias only appeared in Kururun's dream in episode 33.

Transformation

The transformation begins with Kururun coming out of the Mermaid Aqua Pot and tapping the Tropical Pact. They then apply make-up similar to how the Cures do it, saying "Kuru" in place of the parts they shout (cheeks, eyes, etc.). First, their whiskers grow up, then the heart flecks in their eyes turn pink, their ears grow longer with magenta and turquoise hearts on top of the pink, and lipstick is applied to their mouth. Then their tail grows longer, gloves appear on their flippers, an inner tube appears around their waist, and a collar appears on top. After swimming around, they say their introduction phrase before striking a final pose, though it is also just them saying their name.

Trivia

• Kururun loves seashell cookies.
