## Bio

### Appearance

Joy is a young girl with chest-length bright red hair and pastel mint green eyes. Her Harmony Mark is a rainbow lollipop with a sky blue stick and a cyan bow tied around the stick.

As a civilian, her hair is worn in pigtails that are tied at the ends. She wears a dark blue robe-like garment similar to Arcturus's and Victoria's, but with the ends of her sleeves being cyan and her long sleeves being looser, a cyan skirt under it with light cyan shorts under *that*, and black tights under *that*, and rose pink heels. Her Power Necklace, which is shown partly in Stage 1 but currently in Stage 0, is always seen on her neck.

As a Guardian of Harmony, her hair turns pale cyan with pink streaks and is worn in a bun. Her eyes turn watermelon pink. She wears a light cyan long-sleeved dress with pink patches on the waist and sleeves and a pencil skirt that is slightly greener. She has a mint green chest bow with a gem in the middle resembling a light yellow ice cream cone. She has white high heels with red soles and rainbow ovals in the middle. Her gloves are wrist-length and are sectioned into three colors: mint green, pale yellow, and pale orange. Her Harmony Gem and Elemaximum Gauge are both on her waist, the gauge on the left side and the gem, shaped like a lollipop, on the right side. On her back is a pair of white angel wings and she has earrings resembling tiny ice cream cones.

### Personality

Joy is very wacky, silly, hyperactive, easily distracted and happy-go-lucky and loves to make others smile. She is also a girly-girl. She is often immature, childish, and sometimes dense, but she does care for her friends and often makes sweets for them. However, she doesn't handle change well at all and has *extreme* claustrophobia. She also brings problems that always turn on Victoria's berserk button.

### Relationships

* **Victoria Daisy**: Victoria often sees Joy as an annoying nuisance, especially when she ships her and Arcturus and acts childish, but she still cares about her.
* **Gura Gawr**: The two of them are best friends since they represent the same Element of Harmony, though Gura is often *a bit too amused* by Joy's immaturity.

### Etymology

* Her English name **Joy** is another word for "happiness," referring to her cheerful and happy-go-lucky personality.
* Her Japanese name **Fuchsia** is the English word "fuchsia," a type of flower that is usually deep pink or purple. Her Japanese surname **Korigashi** means "frozen dessert."

## Magical Abilities

In her Guardian of Harmony form, Joy possesses enhanced physical abilities such as speed, strength, agility, invulnerability to physical damage, and the ability to fly. She is the guardian of fun.

Joy mainly has ice-based powers. With one touch, Joy can freeze any object solid and can freeze the ground into an ice rink. She can also attack with bolts and rays of ice. She is able to attack with and manipulate ice cream and control its temperature and consistency. She also shows the ability to attack with snow flurries and blizzards to distract or blind the enemy.

Due to being able to attack with ice cream, Joy also can attack with and manipulate milk in general, as she can form bubbles of milk, shoot high-pressure blasts of milk from her hands like a Hydro Pump or like Marina or Cheren's (or another Water Elemental's) water attacks, and create huge tidal waves of it. Obviously, since she is an Ice Elemental, she can control its consistency and freeze it as well. Her power also extends to *any* dairy product such as butter, cheese, or yogurt which she can freelymanipulate and attack with in various creative ways (for example, she has been seen magically turning a bottle of Moomoo Milk into a wheel of fully-aged cheese instantly and causing cream to instantly whip). Her magic aura is pale minty-cyanish green in color.

## Guardian of Harmony

Joy is the Guardian of Fun. She is an Ice/Fairy Elemental who represents the Elemental of Laughter and her theme color is cyan. Her weapons are an ice cream scoop, an ice pick, and a whisk.

### Transformation

Joy holds her Harmony Gem and shouts "Miracle Engage!", causing the Gem to glow and activate. She then puts the Harmony Gem close to her Power Necklace and as soon as the Necklace activates as well, the screen is engulfed in a white light.

### Attacks

* **Gelato Scoop Strike** - Joy's main purification finisher.
* **Winter Ray** - Joy's main damaging sub-attack.

## Pokémon

* Miltank (Shake; signature Pokémon)
* Ninja Dragonet (nicknamed Jenna)

## GoH Analysis Card Profile

The Guardian of Fun, with a happy and joyful nature. She loves to bring smiles to everycreature's face and loves to share her magically-created ice cream with her friends, but her well-intentioned attempts to cheer others up often backfire. Her Element of Harmony is Laughter.

## Trivia

* Even though her powers revolve around ice and dairy products, Joy's Harmony Mark is a rainbow lollipop due to the meanings not always being literal. It is confirmed to have a metaphorical meaning (as rainbows can be associated with joy and happiness), though it may be a nod to her being able to attack with ice cream which is a sweet treat like a lollipop as well as regular ice.
* Despite being 4 years older than both Victoria and Arcturus, they both call her "Fuchsia-*chan*" in the Japanese version (as "chan" is considered extremely disrespectful to someone older than you) instead of the more typical "Fuchsia-*senpai*" since she sure doesn't *act* like she's 4 years older than them.
* Joy owns a medieval-style can of fork repellent, an item originating from the web series BFDI which is used by Lollipop and can repel forks thrown at her when sprayed. It is unknown where she got it, however, but it may be made by somecreature who has the power to magically create repelling substances.
* She is considered to have one of the most drastic hair color changes of almost any Guardian, as cyan (transformed) and red (civilian) are on exact opposite ends of the color spectrum, and that's not even counting the addition of pink streaks as well.
* She was originally planned to have a t-shirt and shorts, but it was scrapped since it looked too modern.
* To differentiate it from Arcturus's Harmony Gem when they're not in jewelry form due to sharing the same theme color (despite obviously having different symbols) Joy's Harmony Gem is a slightly greener shade of cyan than Arcturus's.
* She often calls Fauna Ceres "Fauna Turdwipe," much to her absolute ***FURY***.
* Untransformed, she often uses her powers to keep perishable foods fresh since there are no refrigerators. However, the Guardians are also occasionally seen covering their food in salt as well.
* When counting down or being filled, her Elemaximum Gauge is unique: instead of being separated into 5 parts, for every time it gets filled or counts down to how many minutes she has left, a bite is taken out of the circle of the lollipop with a chomping sound effect.
* Even after GoH:Synchronicity, despite being *34 years old* in GoH48 (or physically 22 in the series finale) and being a candymaker, Joy still acts quite immature and childish.
* She often pisses Commander Kamado and the other Galaxy admins off whenever she misfollows directions, such as when she calls the former "Commander Kangaskhan."
* During the rescue sequence in S16e100, Joy is seen pissing off Victoria and Arcturus by shipping them (forcing the Divinity to save them), except that the scene is from an offsceen moment.
