Yakushiji Reira (薬師寺 れいら?) is a minor character from HUGtto! Pretty Cure. Reira is Saaya's mother and a very famous actress.

Appearance[]

Reira is an elegant adult woman with fair skin and blue eyes. Her dark blue wavy hair is worn loose. She normally wears a white tank-top with a pale beige jacket over her shoulders, a long light blue skirt, and cream heels.

Personality[]

At first sight, Reira appears to be a rather calm woman, who has great acting skills. She is determined to do her best for each role, even if that means doing things she'd never do otherwise, like eating raw leek onions on camera HuPC26 and practice cooking during breaks in order to understand the chef role she obtained. She is also very good with children and was shown to balance both the role of a mother and actress very well. What a lot of people aren't aware of though is that she's actually pretty clumsy.

Reira can be stubborn with her own preconceived thoughts at times, which leads to her becoming distraught and lost upon learning Saaya's change of dream. However, she becomes more open to changes after having a heart-to-heart with Saaya.

Relationships[]

  • Yakushiji Saaya: Saaya is Reira's daughter. She was unaware of her dreams to pursue medicine and was very distraught after discovering she didn't want to be an actress like she did as a child. But she comes to accept her feelings and proceeds to support Saaya.

History[]

Reira has been a successful actress ever since Saaya was young. The studio staff who knew her were originally worried for Reira, who was a young mother, but Reira insisted on getting a part in a show they were preparing for. Impressed by her determination, the crew members helped her with babysitting Saaya while she was busy with her career. HuPC26

When Saaya is uncertain about her own potential choice as an actress, she consults Reira about her concerns. Reira sees through Saaya's troubles, and challenges her daughter by asking her if she feels bothered by the criticism she will have to face as an actress, while remarking that Saaya still has other career options. During preparation for a popular cooking show, Reira later tells the girls that even though she isn't a great cook, she considers every role she takes as opportunities to improve her skills. She is happy that Saaya considers to act with her one day when she is older.HuPC26

However, Reira is soon shocked and distraught upon learning that Saaya wants to switch her career path to becoming a doctor instead. When Reira, Saaya and everyone involved in a film production are transported into a fantasy world similar to the one from the film by Listol, Reira is turned into a knight. Although she appears to support Saaya's decision on quitting acting after this film, Reira is deeply saddened by Saaya's departure from their shared dream, which makes her fall victim to Listol, who turns her into a Mou Oshimaida. As a Mou Oshimaida, Reira seals Hugtan in her body, as she is in denial of Saaya's change and thus in deep sorrows. After Ange finally gets to enter Reira's body with the other Cures' help, she temporarily turns back into Saaya, and sees how Reira is afraid of change and the obstacles Saaya might face through Reira's memories, and how Reira gently holds Hugtan. After Reira listens to Saaya on how Saaya wants to make people smile through a different path just like how she performs to bring smiles to others, she finally accepts that her daughter has grown up, and is therefore purified by Ange and the other Cures. Having accepted Saaya's choice, she and Saaya are finally able to perform earnestly together for the last time afterwards.HuPC44
