## Bio

### Appearance

but she's mostly seen in her school uniform.

As **Cure Masy**, her eyes become bright Red while her now curled hair grows partially longer and turns Red, her sharpened bangs spread across her face to partially obscure one eye while the rest stick up on the side, worn with a cluster of indigo roses. Her long, silver ruffled dress has dark indigo lining and white wing-like sleeves to match the chest ruffles. A ribbon wraps around the navel, accenting her choker. On the chest is an indigo rose with a silver and cyan heart brooch to match the layer of skirting beneath her dress. She also gets silver and dark indigo boots, a white and dark indigo wrist piece, indigo flower earrings, and a single indigo opera glove.

### Personality

Masy is calm and composed, well known for her cool attitude and her frequently chart-topping exam scores at school. She cares for little and was initially cold towards Izumi and Manori. After losing Karaika she became quiet and withdrawn, fearful of causing others to feel burdened by her or risk losing someone else she cherishes. She believed it would be impossible for her to become a 7 S again and was deeply saddened. Before this happened, she was shown to be overly confident and bold. She wouldn't listen to Karaika when she believed she didn't need a partner for help until Karaika died for her.

Her true personality is one of content and maturity. She can be stubborn when she sets her mind to something but begins to open up as she spends more time with the group. She shows a more friendly side to herself by this point. Although generally mature, she can sometimes be oblivious to other's romantic feelings for her.

### Relationships

* + **Dark 7 S:** Masy's relationship with Dark S is antagonistic. However, just when Cure Masy's 7 S Seed is destroyed, Dark S gets a shocked expression, hinting a deeper relationship between the two of them H7S01. Masy herself does not know why Dark S has always been obsessed with her, H7S13 though it is revealed that Dark S is the shadow of Cure Masy, who is the moon.H7S34Sabaku later revealed to Masy that Dark S is her non-biological sister.H7S47
* **Karaika:** Masy's fairy partner. She and Karaika shared a deep friendship when Karaika was alive. Karaika was present with Cure Masy when Dark S and Sabaku attacked the Great Heart Tree. When Karaika sacrificed himself to protect Masy the trauma caused Masy's heart flower to completely wilt due to the guilt she felt for being unable to protect her partner. Masy's heart was unable to recover from this event until a miracle thanks to the Heart Seeds collected by Izumi, Manori, and Nakiko allowing Masy to reunite with Karaika's spirit.
	+ **Kurumi Monori:** Although they are on a first-name basis and Masy often gives Monori notes from classes, she is absent from and accompanies her during lunch. They didn't seem that close, but it is later revealed that they are best friends.H7S13
	+ **Hanasaki Izumi:** Masy originally distanced herself from Izumi, and didn't have faith in Izumi's abilities as a Cure. However, she begins to trust and open up to Izumi, who shows her kindness and becomes her friend. Izumi is also the person who helps her regain the will to fight against Dune after her father Sabaku died.
	+ **Kurumi Manori:** Masy knows Masy through her friend Monori. Masy also didn't trust Manori's abilities at first, but gradually opens up to Manori, who eventually becomes her friend. She is able to tolerate and look out for Manori's loud attitude.
	+ **Myoudouin Nakiko:** Like how she originally regarded Izumi and Manori, Yuri didn't think highly of Nakiko at first, until she gradually opens up to Nakiko. Although she interacts less often with Nakiko compared to Izumi and Manori, both Masy and Nakiko are close friends who have faith and work well with each other.

### Etymology

**Tsukikage (月影?):** *Tsuki* (月?) translates to *month; Moon*, a reference to her alter ego as Cure Masy. *Kage* (影?) translates to *shadow*. Together, they translate to *Masy* or *Masbea*.

**Masy (メイシー?):** A name that has a vast variety of meanings depending on how it is written in kanji, and since Masy's name is written in hiragana instead, it is impossible to find an exact meaning for it. The most common meaning is massy (マッシー *Meishī*?), which would fit with the theme of *Heartcatch 7 S!*. Also, as her Heart Flower is shown to be lilies, that meaning fits best.

**Cure Masy:** Despite the theme of *Heartcatch 7 S!* being flowers, *Masy* is the light that comes to Earth from the moon. However, moonlight is necessary for a plant to survive because, without it, a plant may be exposed to too much sunlight and lose water. Also, this pairs her up with Cure Nakiko as opposites like Cure Izumi and Cure Manori.

**Cure Masy** (キュアメイシー?) is the Cure that Masy transforms into. As the sole protector of the Tree of Hearts in the past, Cure Mays is said to be the "The Legendary Warrior" 7 S by Sabaku. Cure Masy is also the strongest 7 S said by Izumi. Cure Masy is capable of fighting with martial arts and uses the attack Floral Power Fortissimo, which Cure Izumi and Cure Manori can only do together, and also use it for further use than purification. She is capable to fight evenly against Dark 7 S, who is considered Sabaku's right hand. Along with this, she can use the attack Silver Forte Wave, and a solo version of Floral Power Fortissimo, as well as Floral Power Fortissimo with Cure Nakiko. Masy also performs Floral Power Fortissimo with Cure Izumi during the final battle against Dune. Later on in the series, she becomes Heartcatch 7 S Super Silhouette along with Cure Izumi, Cure Manori, and Cure Nakiko is episode 38. In this form, they can use the group finisher, Heartcatch Orchestra.

### Transformation

First, the Heart Pot explodes, leaving only the lid, and her Heart Seed becomes a complete one. She grabs the lid and shouts "7 S! Open My Heart!". She then inserts the seed into it and turns the button around and then her face is reflected in the Heart Pot's mirror. The Mirror sparkles and the transformation starts. She spins around in a flurry of purple rose petals as her costume appears. She then flies down in her full outfit as her hair turns light Red. She puts the lid to her breast and it turns into a rose brooch with the Heartcatch insignia and she flips part of her bangs, which sharpens before introducing herself.
