## History

### Meeting Ginger and Becoming Cure Supernova

Mimi overhears that a humanoid fairy is hurt and runs into the forest where she meets Kanon. Realizing the humanoid fairy is ill, she demands they seek a hospital, only to find out Kanon cannot be treated by normal methods other than the power of Pretty Cure to protect Earth. This and the Lemures don't bother her in the slightest though, allowing her and the selfish Ginger to connect and become Cure Supernova. Supernova is amazed by her own physical capabilities and strength but has to be guided by Ginger to scan the weakness of the Lemures and perform certain attacks.

### Argument and Reconciliation with Ginger

When Mimi starts attending school, she begins to pay less attention to Ginger. She later takes Ginger to her school per the latter's request, but soon quarrels with Ginger after realizing her peers have spotted the eagle as well as Ginger complaining about her not treating her duty as a Cure seriously. At first, she believes that the fault fully lies in Ginger, but soon she feels regretful for what she said. She eventually decides to save Ginger from Ajimi's Lemures, and vows to continue being friends with her, as well as living her life as a student and Cure to the fullest, repairing their friendship.
