### Personality

Makiko is a calm second-year middle school student who strives to try many different things but doesn't have the athletic ability to accomplish most of them. Above all this, she has a kind heart and wants to help others. She was prone to sicknesses as a child and wants to spread the same kindness she received back then to those around her. At times, Nakiko can be reckless and underestimate a severe situation, mainly because of her desire to protect something she considers valuable, which can cloud her judgment.

### Relationships

Lapettie**:** Initially, Lapettie was rather cold towards Nakiko because she wasn't the doctor Lapettie expected. And to make matters worse, she had a weak body. However, Lapettie is moved by Nakiko's courage and cares about Nakiko as a partner.

## Cure Nakiko

   **"Two flowers that overlap! Cure Nakiko!"**
重なる二つの花！ キュアナキコ！

*Kasanaru futatsu no hana! Kyuanakiko!*

**Cure Nakiko** (キュアナキコ?) is the Pretty Cure alter ego of Nakiko. In order to transform, she needs her transformation Element Bottle, her Healing Animal partner Lapettie and her Healing Stick.

## Transformation

The transformation begins with Lapettie leaping up and shouting "Start!" before entering the Healing Stick. Nakiko then turns around as she completes the transformation phrase and holds the stick and her Transformation Element Bottle. She inserts the bottle into the stick as it becomes surrounded in a white aura. Nakiko and Lapettie then say "S Touch!" together as Nakiko presses the right paw once before a flurry of flowers appears from the glowing tip of the stick. Nakiko is then shown standing on top of a flower while Lime Green flower petals follow her. She waves the stick around as the petals merge and turn into a white cape that falls onto Nakiko's shoulders. Then she taps her feet and her boots appear, follow by her gloves before the cape wraps around her body and forms her dress. A bow appears in the back while a rose brooch with a ruffly ribbon appears in the front. Nakiko's hair then grows longer and turns hot Lime Green with some of it styled into a bun, with her tiara, earrings, and flower accessory appearing before tiny flowers also appear in her hair, completing the transformation. A giant flower then begins to bloom, with Nakiko emerging from the middle of it. She then poses with her Healing Stick as she and Lapettie start the introduction. After she cuddles Lapettie, Nakiko twirls the stick around several times before striking her finishing pose.
