Throughout the first half of the series, Amu has a crush on Tadase and blushes every time she is in his presence. Thus, new transformation scenes are used.Īmu's main love interests are Tadase Hotori and Tsukiyomi Ikuto. In the second season, when Amu shows her true potential, the Humpty Lock increases in power. Later on, Amu also creates a fourth egg, known as Diamond.
Ran, Miki, and Su help Amu with her task through a process called Character Transformation, which is enabled by the Humpty Lock and grants Amu special abilities depending on the Guardian Character. Her task as the Joker is to search for and purify X Eggs and X Characters (also, in the second season, she purifies Mystery Eggs, the corrupted forms of people's would-be selves). Amu's position with the Guardians is the Joker. When they hatch, they reveal Amu's Guardian Characters: Ran, Miki, and Su.Īmu becomes a member of the Guardians, the school's student council, and discovers that each member has a Guardian Character. However, when Amu wishes for the courage to become her would-be self, three colorful eggs appear. Part of the reason for this misunderstanding is the trendy punk goth clothing her mother buys for her as well as the way she expresses her shyness. She can be identified as a tsundere (cold and mean to opening up to other people), but her true character is shy and timid. Amu's classmates see her as "cool and spicy".
Main characters Amu Hinamori Īmu Hinamori ( 日奈森 あむ, Hinamori Amu), the series' protagonist, is a student at Seiyo Elementary School. Kairi later leaves and is replaced by Nagihiko Fujisaki, Nadeshiko's real identity. Amu also encounters Ikuto Tsukiyomi and Utau Hoshina(Tsukiyomi), two siblings who also have Guardian Characters and are employed by the Easter Company to search for the Embryo.Įventually, Nadeshiko Fujisaki and Kukai Soma leave the Guardians and are replaced by Rima Mashiro and Kairi Sanjo, respectively. Each of the Guardians-Tadase Hotori, Nadeshiko Fujisaki, Kukai Soma, and Yaya Yuiki-have their own Guardian Characters. However, Amu is not the only one with Guardian Characters. They can also perform a "Character Change" where Amu's personality is replaced by an entirely different one. Moreover, the Guardian Characters are more than mere mascots who help Amu learn about her true self. Ran represents Amu's desire to be more honest and athletic, Miki represents Amu's desire to be more level headed and artistic, Su represents Amu's desire to be more caring and improve her domestic skills, while Diamond represents Amu's desire to shine in front of others and be a good speaker.
Each Guardian Character represents an aspect of Amu's true self. Īmu's Guardian Characters-Ran, Miki, Su, and later Diamond-aid her in her quest of self-discovery. Amu gets grumpy and frequently talks back to others in contrast to the polite schoolgirls that fill the genre. Unlike most heroines in other magical girl series, Amu is neither the perfect sweetheart nor a complete klutz.
Like Jun Sakurada in Peach-Pit's previous work, Rozen Maiden, Amu tackles issues such as alienation and fitting in at school. Peach-Pit uses Amu to explore differences between one's true self and the self that is presented to others. Cast of Shugo Chara! from the first anime series.
