## History

### Meeting Laura and Becoming Cure Coral

Sometime after befriending Manatsu, Sango joins her and three of their classmates on a shopping trip. When she gets lost during their visit to the aquarium, she meets Laura who is enjoying herself at the outdoor pool. Although she finds Laura adorable, she is upset that she is unable to voice out her own opinion to her classmates when they all believe that mermaids have funny faces.

At school, Sango decides to accompany Manatsu to eat together, and admits that she is envious of Manatsu not hesitating to do what she wants, because according to her experience of picking a tulip bulb in kindergarten, she doesn't like standing out. She later meets Laura again, and is told by Laura to believe in her own cuteness, though she does not really understand and does not consider herself qualified to become a Cure. However, after school, she watches how Manatsu rushes to the park instead of escaping, and when she follows her, she realizes Manatsu, who she recognizes as Cure Summer, is bravely fighting Chongire's Yaraneeda. She finally musters up her courage, and receiving her own Tropical Pact, she transforms into Cure Coral for the first time.TRPC03

**Cure Coral** (キュアコーラル, ***Cure Coral***) is Sango's Pretty Cure alias. In order to transform, she needs her Tropical Pact and Heart Kuru Ring. She has the ability to create an X-shaped shield by closing her eyes and crossing her index fingers.

### Transformation

The transformation starts with Sango's Tropical Pact appearing. She then holds the pact while removing her Heart Kuru Ring, inserting it into the lock and turning it. The pact opens up, revealing her reflection. Then Sango takes the brush and shouts "Let's make up! Bling!" before touching the center of the pact with it, causing it to glow. She then shouts "Lips!" as she applies lipstick. She taps the middle of the pact again and shouts "Eyes!", giving her pink eyeshadow and adding turquoise heart-shaped flecks to her eyes. She taps it again and shouts "Hair!" as her hair grows and turns light purple with giant bows. She once again taps it and shouts "Cheeks!", pressing the brush against her cheeks and causing tiny hearts to appear on each one. She taps the middle one more time and shouts "Dress!" as she draws a yellow clover with the brush, which splits into six clovers. Each of the clovers strike her body, making parts of her outfit appear. First are her shoes, followed by her gloves, then her choker, earrings, dress bodice, skirt, and hat. A pouch for her Tropical Pact appears on the left, dropping in. With the transformation complete, Coral gently lands on the water and starts to jump on it, spinning and smiling before announcing her name and striking her final pose.

### Attacks
