New information about Wonderful Precure, the 21st series of the Precure franchise, has been released, revealing the first visual of Nico-sama in human form. Why has Nico taken on a human form? What is the connection with Gaou? With Nico’s help, the Precure transform into their powerful new forms. The exciting visual of Nico in human form, along with the action-packed scenes of Precure’s transformation, will appear in the October episodes.

Nico is a god-like being who once created Nico Garden, where Nico Animals and Kirarin Animals lived peacefully. However, after Gaou caused the Nico Garden animals to turn into rampaging Garu Garu creatures, Nico sealed them into eggs and disappeared, exhausted from using all of their power. Later, thanks to the efforts of Precure members—Cure Wonderful, Cure Friendly, Cure Nyamy, and Cure Lilian—all nine Kirarin Animals returned. Suddenly, a horned egg appeared, and the Mehmeh Animals were shocked, exclaiming, “It’s Nico-sama’s egg, the creator of Nico Garden!”

One early morning, Komugi discovered a crack in Nico’s egg, and as Mehmeh rushed over, the egg broke open with a brilliant light, revealing a small unicorn form of Nico.
—Kana Ueda shares her thoughts on the appeal of Wonderful Precure.

"Since childhood, I always thought it would be amazing if I could talk to animals. And now, that dream comes true—on top of that, I get to become a Precure alongside them! If I were a child, I’m sure I’d be totally captivated. Satoru teaches me about the unique traits of each animal, and every time I read the script, I discover something new. The animals are not just cute but also strong and, at times, can be a threat. They’re powerful yet gentle. I was reminded that it’s important not just to be close to them but also to understand their strict side, so we can find the best way to coexist with everyone in Animal Town."

—Kana Ueda comments on Nico-sama’s charm and her thoughts on Nico’s human form.

"Nico’s debut was so well-received that many fans expressed their surprise! Nico’s bright, cheerful smiles and the occasional calm, mysterious expression or soft-spoken words might be part of Nico’s unique charm. In human form, she has a refined, princess-like elegance. I wonder if Nico will still say, ‘I’m Nicooo~!’ even in this form?! It’s so exciting!!"
