When not in the school uniform, her formal attire consists of a light blue shirt worn over a chiffon turtleneck with stripes, a light brown skirt, and a yellow hat. When it's summertime, she prefers to wear a mint blouse with light yellow shorts, and during winter, she wears a flutter-sleeved mint top over a white shirt, yellow shorts, black tights and gold boots. She finishes off her winter look with a white hat.

Personality[]

Friendly and very helpful to the extent that she can, Yui is described by Towa as "the sun for Pretty Cure", in that her kindness and hope are what remind them of what is truly important. Even if she can't become a Cure herself, she knows she can still make a difference.

History[]

Meeting Haruka and Becoming the First Target[]

When Haruka arrives at Noble Academy, Yui appears and shows her around. Haruka goes into the forest and Yui follows her, only for Close, one of the generals of Dys Dark, to lock her dream of being an author away and create a Zetsuborg. She is soon freed after Haruka, who transformed into Cure Flora, purified it.

Finding out Go! Princess Pretty Cure's identities[]

When Haruka, Minami and Kirara visited the cave near the forest of Noble Academy while following Shirogane-san, Yui also followed them and the cave leaded them to a new place full of flowers. Close appears and spawns a Zetsuborg. The three Cures transformed in front of her and defeated the villain. Yui promised to help them whenever they would need a cover.

Songs[]

Yui's voice actress, Yoshimura Haruka, has participated in an image song for the character she voices. This duet is sung with Shimamura Yū, who voices Haruno Haruka.

Trivia[]

She is the first character in this series who had her dream taken more than twice. She was captured in episodes 1, 28, 41, and 48.
- She is also the first character to fight back from within the Cage of Despair, thereby allowing the Cures to defeat the Zetsuborg created from her dream.
Revealed in Go! Princess Pretty Cure the Book: Hana and Refi's Adventure, Yui was chosen to be the person to write the stories of the Go! Princess Cures, as Hope Kingdom's king believed that the Cures' story has to be passed down in case a new enemy appears, and everyone agreed that Yui was the right candidate to do so. Yui's illustration card is also the key for the Cures to use the attack Pretty Cure Royal Eternal (プリキュア・リヤン・エテルネル, Pretty Cure Royal Eternal)^? against Night Pumpkin.
- The same novel also reveals that Yui is still friends with Haruka ten years later, and she often provides illustration cards as bonuses at Haruka's family's sweet shop Haruya.
