List of Pretty Rhythm: Rainbow Live characters

Last updated

Pretty Rhythm: Rainbow Live is a 2013 anime series and the third entry in the Pretty Rhythm animated franchise. Unlike the previous two seasons, Pretty Rhythm: Aurora Dream and Pretty Rhythm: Dear My Future , Rainbow Live features an all-new cast centered on a separate storyline. [1] [2] Character designs were provided by Okama, [3] while Mai Matsuura oversaw character designs for the male characters.

Plot

The series is centered on two Prism Star groups, Happy RAIN and Bell Rose, who compete in Prism Shows, live performances that use a combination of figure skating, singing, and dancing, [4] which are then judged based on how charmed the judges and spectators are. [5] The characters perform special moves called Prism Jumps, which are also scored based on how many Prism Jump combinations can be performed at once. During Prism Shows, the characters can perform Prism Lives, which turns their Pair Friends into instruments.

Each character has their own style of performance and song to perform to. Halfway throughout the series, the characters team up for the Winter White Session, a duo competition, with each performing a duet: Naru and Bell with "Little Wings & Beautiful Pride"; Ann and Wakana with "Cherry-picking Days"; Ito and Otoha with "Alive"; and Rinne and June with "Sevendays Love, Sevendays Friend." [6]

After the series' end, Naru continues to appear in other related Pretty Series spin-offs, such as Kiratto Pri Chan . [7] The male supporting cast, Koji, Hiro, and Kazuki, later became the main focus of Pretty Rhythm: Rainbow Live's spin-off, the King of Prism film series, [8] after positive feedback from releasing the full version of their theme song, "Athletic Core", and cheer screenings. [9] [10]
