Nodoka Hanadera / History

This page contains the history of Nodoka Hanadera.

## Original Story

### Preseason

A few years ago, Nodoka suffered from a medical condition that resulted in her hospitalization. Being supported by her parents to carry on, she became a selfless person who hopes to protect her loved ones. It turns out that Nodoka's illness was caused by a Megabyogen parasite, which is revealed to be Daruizen.

### Meeting Rabirin and Becoming Cure Grace

Nodoka overhears that Latte is hurt and runs into the forest. She demands they seek a vet, only to find out Latte cannot be treated by normal methods other than the power of Pretty Cure to protect Earth. This and the Megabyogen don't bother her in the slightest though, allowing her and the stubborn Rabirin to connect and become Cure Grace.

### Losing and Regaining Her Memory

As of episode 19, Nodoka and the other girls encounter the TerraByogens who are trying to warn them about the Unfortunate Count. At this point, Daruizen tries to reason with Nodoka based on their past, and she soon finds it in her heart to forgive him, before the two share a hug. When the Count arrives, this aim to the crystal was originally towards the TerraByogens, but the Cures blocked the path, only to get knocked over by the Crystals. This leaves the Count even more satisfied as he leaves.

In episode 23, Nodoka has a dream about herself as Cure Grace, and tells Daruizen about it. Roosevelt discovers she had lost her memory and takes her to the sakura tree in hopes of bringing it back, but to no avail. In episode 24, he takes her to the lake and lets her feed the ducks, but is shocked to learn that she couldn't recall anything. To help him recover, she takes him out to ice cream, where he calls her "flower princess". When the two go back to the park, Nodoka discovers a picture of herself and Roosevelt, before she gets a headache, leading to a series of flashbacks running in her brain. Waking up, she remembers Roosevelt, and he hugs her with tears of joy. Nodoka blames herself for putting him through the pain, though he reassures her that what matters is that she is safe. However, just as he is about to kiss her, Viper and the Numeres Brothers capture him, forcing her to bid him farewell. Devastated, she asks Daruizen to help her regain her strength as a Pretty Cure.

### Reuniting with Roosevelt

In episode 32, before Nodoka goes to the Healing Garden with Latte, Wooloo, Raki, and Daruizen, the two girls transform and Lavande notices something is wrong with Grace. While Lavande goes on with Latte and Wooloo, Grace admits to Daruizen that she has been feeling empty since Roosevelt hasn't been around her, and that she envies his relationship with Lavande. Daruizen consoles Grace, telling her that he believes that Roosevelt will be looking for her before she knows it. During the battle with Batetemoda, she sees Roosevelt has come to the rescue unintentionally, but she fully recognizes him after he says her usual nickname, "flower princess". Overjoyed, Grace runs into Roosevelt's arms, crying for his safety. She then gains enough confidence and manages to have a final attack towards Batetemoda along with Roosevelt. When the battle is over, she confesses that she loves him for a long time, and the two kiss for the first time.

### The Vow of Remembrance

In episode 33, Nodoka learns that Roosevelt was at the Doll Kingdom and that he accidentally teleported to her, before Teatine leads them to another area. When they return, she declares a ceremony called the vow of remembrance where the two exchange promises to spend time together as a couple. After the ceremony is over, they go over to Nodoka's house to eat dinner together. She doesn't mind that he is sleeping over and offers to get him a futon and pillows. She gets shocked when Roosevelt lies down to her and holds her tight, later causing her to relax. The two end up cuddling in bed before they fall asleep.
