Aira Harune is the main character of the television anime, "Pretty Rhythm: Aurora Dream". She has a super knack for fashion, but didn't know what she wanted to do with her life and didn't have a dream until she encountered Prism Shows. She is best friends with Rizumu Amamiya & Mion Takamine, the other two members of her later-formed pop idol unit, MARs. She is also idolized by Kaname Chris, who often tackles her in shows of affection. Aira was born under the Skate Goddess constellation, supposedly leading her to become a Prism Star. As of episode 50, Aira has become one of the very first people to ever jump the true form of the legendary Prism Jump, Aurora Rising, and also became the Prism Queen, beating her rivals Rizumu, Kaname, and finally, Mion, beating her perfect score. Her love interest is Shou, lead singer for the popular boy band, Callings. The feelings of love they hold seem to be mutual for each other.

Personality

Aira is kind to most anyone she meets, never really disliking anyone, although she may be bad-mouthed. She is quite shy, and many times, cannot stand up for herself or say what she wants. Even though she seems like quite a fragile girl, she is in fact very strong, willing to overcome countless obstacles for her friends and the people around her. The entire reason she wants to continue being a Prism Star by the end of the story is to bring smiles to people's faces and to give them dreams.

Role in the Story

Klutz to Grace

Aira started as an extremely clumsy, normal girl. in the beginning of the series. She loved fashion design, especially adoring the clothes at the Prism Store. One day, as she walked through the crowd at a mall, Jun Takigawa spotted her and held her hand as they ran through the crowd together, seeing infinite potential in her and making her a replacement for Mion Takamine, who had gone MIA at the time. Even though at first she refused to dance since she knew herself she was extremely clumsy, she found that once out on the ice, she felt a sort of fun and happiness she had never felt before, and decided to continue the carreer of a Prism Star, once she was approved by Kyoko Asechi to join their Pretty Star agency, Pretty Top. Her romance with Shou from the popular boy band Callings began when he kissed her on the forehead after she clumsily fell on him after completing the Prism Show.

same time she did. With their interest in Prism Shows and being the same age, they quickly become best friends. She at first feels incompetent, not being as serious about Prism Shows as Rhythm, and not having practiced anywhere near as much as she had. However, when she sees Rhythm with no fashion sense in the slightest, she feels that maybe they are closer in ability than she first thought, although they have different strengths. Although Shou and Aira seemed to have perfect compatibility, they a

The reason Shou had invited her over for coffee at the Prism Stone Shop was because he wanted inspiration for his designs, which Aira always had. However, she seemed so bright and happy that he got irritated at her and lashed out, asking "What, did you think

"Thank you"

I invited you on a date or something?!". Aira went home in tears, but made up with Shou when she helped him with his design before her show, and wore it on stage. She showed how simple changes can make all the difference. Their bond was rekindled once again, and Shou started to feel something for Aira at this point. He whispered "Thank you" in her ear as he left.

only wanting her to wear fluffy pink dresses and always treat her like a little girl. Although her father was stubborn, Aira was finally able to persuade him to watch a Prism Show she participated in, wearing a pretty-remake of the dress her father had given her. Although he didn't want to admit it, he thought Aira looked beautiful in the Prism Show, and allowed her to participate in them from then on.

Meeting Mion

When Mion overshadowed her victory at the large tournament Aira participated in, she felt surprise more than anger. She had adored Mion for a long time, and was very excited to see her join their agency, unlike Rizumu. No matter what Mion said, she always smiled and called Mion, "Mion-sama", showing the highest respect. However, their friendship was finally bonded after the Summer Queen Cup, and she finally stopped calling her Mion-sama. This showed that they were on more friendly terms.

After Aira became Prism Queen, Rizumu and Mion, having no real plans for what to do next, accepted Aira's offer to restart MARs since they had completed their previous goals. They are still active as Prism Stars 3 years in the future. She is apparently not dating Shou at the current moment because of his Callings status, but they do have mutual feelings for each other, and flirt with each other. She supports Mia, and believes she can become a Prism Star. She has lost most of her previous clumsiness, and has been admired by many young Prism Stars for her grace and beauty. She is still a bit naive and

Relationships

Aira gets ready for her first kiss.

Shou and Aira's relationship may have gotten off to a rocky start, but they soon relied on each other for fashion advice and just to talk. They shared a tender moment at the fireworks festival, and Aira was willing to give up her first kiss to him, but he pretended not to notice, as he knew that he had to focus on Callings. However, he confessed his love for her during the fireworks, but she did not hear him. Their relationship was at a standstill as Aira was busy with work, until a rival appeared. That rival was Nana. Nana was a superstar on the same level as Shou, and they even shared a kiss in the movie they appeared together in. This left Aira in a funk, not being able to focus on anything. She was so depressed that she couldn't even practice properly. However, she came to terms with the feelings

He started getting scared, as he knew the Aurora Rising had broken many jumpers before. He embraced Aira from behind and held her tight, making her blush.

that saved herself from being sucked in, along with Shou calling out her name into the vortex. He attended the finals to cheer on Aira, and helped her perform the Aurora Rising Dream by yelling "Aurora Rising!" with the rest of the crowd. On the final episode of Aurora Rising, Aira and Shou go on a date and reminisce about the past year. Aira asks something of him. "I have a favor to ask of you..." This favor is never heard.

Dear My Future

Aira and Shou as a couple after 3 years.

Aira has proceeded to her final year of high school, and Shou has graduated. When Mia and the others come into the Prism Shop, only he and Aira are there. As the members of Prizzmy☆ look on across from the two as they sit on the couch together, Shou hands Aira his new Prism Stone, placing it near her lips, to which she blushes. "What are you getting all flustered for?" He flirts and teases her.

Aira notices Shou's jealousy.

Even though their relationship seems to be going great at this point, as they act like true lovers, things get stormy when a new guy named Yun-su opens a new Prism Stone shop right next door to Shou's. Not only that, but he seems to be hitting on Aira right from the start, calling her a goddess and offering her free fashion. Shou shows obvious jealousy, and Aira notices. He also is shocked when she compliments Yun-su's designed clothes as sexy and beautiful, and when she says she can hear their voices perfectly. He jumps in front of her to stop Yun-su's flirting, and introduces himself.

Shou becomes infuriated, and jumps onstage (he might have expected this to happen, SINCE HE WAS WEARING SKATES IN THE AUDIENCE). In order to be on a higher level than Yun-su to show he was more suited for Aira, Shou introduced himself first as Shou from Callings, but finally let out the secret he had kept for at least 4 years- He is the designer of Prism Stone. In order to fight back against Yun-su's crown, Shou gives A
