Bio[]
Appearance[]
Nata is a fair-skinned young man with stylized dark blonde hair, and azure eyes. He wears a multi-shaded blue raiment buckled with an orange and yellow belt, a purple cape, and blue boots with yellow accents. Around his neck is a puffy white collar attached with a blue jewel and a cream-colored ascot. On his head is a crown with a turquoise cream-like and some indigo bead-like decorations.
Personality[]
Nata has flamboyant mannerisms in spite of his royal title. He is also too lazy to participate in hard labour such as running and doing karate even when he is the one who issued the challenge.
Because of him being lovesick towards Yukari, he is gullible enough to fall for her fickleness, and is completely oblivious to Akira being a girl. However, he still has the honor to accept rejection and defeat, and trusts Akira enough for her to look after Yukari for him.
He has a habit of using English phrases in his sentences.
Relationships[]
- Kotozume Yukari: Upon meeting Yukari, he falls for her at first sight and even going as far as challenging Akira as a means to win her over, totally unaware that she is toying with his feelings. However, he still accepts her rejection before he departs Ichigozaka for his kingdom.
- Kenjou Akira: Nata is originally hostile towards Akira, who he considers as his love rival, and constantly tries to defeat her with his own privileges during their competitions. But he eventually accepts Akira and tells her to be a good boy to look after Yukari for him. He is unaware that Akira is a girl the whole time.
History[]
When Nata visits KIRAKIRA Patisserie, he is immediately attracted by Yukari, and wants to win her over as his lover. This makes him rather hostile towards Akira, as he believes Akira to be another boy who is going to take Yukari from him. Desperate to win Yukari over, he challenges Akira to several competitions, but keeps winning by using his privileges as a prince to cheat his victories. He even tries to demolish KIRAKIRA Patisserie, until Ichika, Ciel, Himari and Aoi convince him to have a dance competition with Akira instead.
At the grand hotel's dance floor, Nata rudely offers himself to be Yukari's dance partner, but Yukari remains unimpressed by his attitude. He, in a desperate attempt to impress her, forcefully lifts her up, only to humiliate himself by losing balance and falling into the pool. As Yukari doesn't want to stop the competition yet, Nata begs her to give him a second chance, to which Yukari accepts.
The next day, Nata tries to protect the cake he prepared for Yukari from Elisio, only for Elisio to absorb him and his cake's Kirakiraru. He recovers after the Cures defeat Elisio. That evening, Nata is disappointed when Yukari rejects him, but is convinced after learning that Yukari wants to understand herself better, and accepts the chocolate macarons as her and Akira's parting gift for him. He then tells Akira that he trusts her to look after Yukari, which shocks Akira, as Nata still believes that she is a boy even as he leaves. KKPCALM25
