Her dress is light pink with pink and hot pink detail, with white frills going around the shoulders trim with turquoise scallops. Her skirt is in two layers, the top is split to reveal a hot pink and pale yellow ruffled layer over a pearl pink frilly petticoat. A large hot pink ribbon wraps around her waist with a white, turquoise, and pale yellow flower-shaped apron adorned by pale pink and turquoise bows. On her chest is a hot pink gem heart with a ribbon. She also gains white gloves with pale pink frills and white boots with a fuchsia toe, turquoise accent, and light pink scalloped trim, worn with hot pink socks.

Etymology
Nagomi (和実?): Nago (和?) means "calmness", "gentleness" or "inner peace"[1]. However, 和 is most likely being associated with Japanese culture, for example "Japanese clothing" (和服?) or "Japanese food" (和食?)[2]. Mi (実?) simply means "fruitation" or "crops" [3]. Therefore, 和実 means "Japanese crop", implying Yui's motif: rice.
Yui (ゆい?): There is no one meaning for the name, as there are many ways to write it. Such examples are "supportive" (維?) and "tie" (結?)[4].
Cure Precious is something of great value because of being rare, expensive, or important[5].
History
Becoming Cure Precious
Yui is on her way home from helping the Soccer Club when she sees a pram flying down a steep hill. She manages to stop it in time, where she meets Kome-Kome. She offers the hungry litte fox fairy a rice ball, who leads her to a very hungry Rosemary. Yui quickly takes him to her family's diner, who helps clean the dishes in thanks for the free meal. She realizes Rosemary can see the Recipepes as well, and tries to find out more about them, but is rejected.
Sometime later, she is eating omurice with Takumi, when she notices Gentlu stealing the Omurice Recipepe. This prompts Yui to give chase, where she stumbles across Rosemary confronting Gentlu. She manages to join the confrontation in a different dimension and tries her best to help save the Omurice Recipepe, much to Rosemary's dismay. Her determination causes the jewel on Kome-Kome's scarf to react, which grants her the Heart Cure Watch. This gives her the power to transform into Cure Precious with Kome-Kome. She manages to quickly purify the Ubauzo and save the Omurice Recipepe.DPPC01
Friendship with Rosemary
After defeating the Ubauzo, Yui believes that she can help Rosemary by being Cure Precious. She then tells him to stay at Takumi's family inn. However, she is unaware of Rosemary's guilt, until she receives his farewell letter from Takumi's mother. After finding him with her Heart Cure Watch, Precious begins recklessly fighting Gentlu's Ubauzo, until Rosemary finally tells her that it's dangerous for her to perform her duties as a Cure. But Precious reminds him that her duties are worth it when it means preserving food that makes people happy. Following Rosemary's strategy, Precious gets to purify the Ubauzo. She, along with her mother, then has dinner with Rosemary, with both of them becoming closer friends.DPPC02
Meeting Amane and Receiving the Heart Juicy Mixer
When dining at the omurice shop, Yui and her friends meet Amane, and Yui tries to befriend her. However, Amane rejects her attempts.
Later, Precious, along with Spicy and Yum-Yum, encounter Gentlu and her Motto Ubauzo after Gentlu once again captures two Recipepes. However, they have great difficulty fighting it because it was way stronger than a normal Ubauzo, causing the Cures to get hurt. Just then, she notices Gentlu having an internal conflict regarding the Recipepes, and she and the other's desires to save the Recipepes help them to gain their Heart Juicy Mixer. With Delicious Precious Heat, Precious successfully purifies the Motto Ubauzo and rescues the Recipepes.
After the fight, Yui again spends time with her friends, though she starts to worry about Amane as well.DPPC10

Transformation
The transformation starts with Kome-Kome changing into her rice ball form. Yui catches her and after spinning a couple of times and nuzzling her, she shouts the transformation phrase. After leaping up, multicolored triangles fly up and Yui starts to squeeze Kome-Kome several times, causing little hearts to appear. She then shouts "Sharing energy!" and flies into the air. The jewel on Kome-Kome's collar shines a pink light, causing a pink onigiri to appear, which Yui eats. Then her hair changes color, length, and style, with Kome-Kome tumbling across the top of her head, making her headband and bow appear. After that, heart-shaped highlights appear in her hair along with her earrings. Then her top, gloves, tails, bow, apron, and skirt appear. Precious then hugs Kome-Kome, which causes her front bow and boots to appear. With the transformation complete, Kome-Kome nuzzles on Precious's face before appearing on her left hip. Precious taps Kome-Kome twice before saying her introduction and striking a final pose. Finally, she says "I'm gonna give you a delicious meal" before forming a triangle with her hands.
