Upon learning that Freja found the third Flower Bloom Voice, Haruno and her friends finds the class she was in to talk to her, but she brushes them off. Later, the group goes to Baumgarten Mall Concert Hall, where Freja was doing makeover, when Blanc Noir appear with an Akawaru. The magical girls defeat it and confront Freja about the perfume and she returns it to them, thinking it was a gift from fan. Still determined to find out if she is the member of Nordic Quintet, they attend a ballerina concert she is participating in. In her dressing room, Freja finds a Flower Bloom Voice in her make up case and decides to wear it as a necklace.

During the second music of ballerina concert, Evil Twins appear again and creates a Ballet Akawaru and it starts to attack, causing everyone except for Freja and the two Cures to evacuate. The two transform, but are defeated, so Freja took matter into her own hands to protect her show. Suddenly, her Princess Charm Mirror reacts and Norusa hands her the Flower Bloom Voice and she transforms into Red Rose Norway. When Freja left foot gets injured after trying to perform a new step, Pia comes to her aid and bandages it. However, even after the other Little Fairies ask her to join the team, she returns the microphone yet again, saying she was too busy to be a Little Fairy.

After Freja's injury, the next day, she is able to perform her new song, titled "Looby Loo".

### **The Nordic Quintet**

In Episode 56, she forms an idol group called The Nordic Quintet alongside Ryo Izumisawa, Hatsune Sorata, Cacao Tachikawa, and Kirara Nijiiro.

## **Etymology**

**Freja** (フレイヤ *Fureiya*) is a Goddess in Norse mythology. There is an error in some media that her name is written as "Freya", probably because the letter *j* is spelled as *y* in most Germanic languages (except English).

The meaning of **Bondevik** is unknown. However, it's probably a reference to Norwegian politician Kjell Magne Bondevik.

## **Relationships**
