Mizuki Kanzaki

Mizuki Kanzaki is one of the main Pretty Cures in the first generation of Idol Activities PreCure. Of the first generation girls, she is said to be the most powerful Pretty Cure. At first, she worked as a solo, then auditioned girls to become a part of a new unit, Tristar. Near the end of the first movie, Ichigo Hoshimiya takes her place as the top idol and the most powerful Pretty Cure.

Appearance
Mizuki has grape-colored eyes and matching hair - reaching her knees when loose, and her thighs when styled in her default style - held up in an ice-blue and white striped headband. She is described as being extremely beautiful. In season one, she's typically seen in her Starlight School uniform. When she wears causual clothes, the style is very elegant.

Personality
Mizuki is calm, elegant, and confident, acting professional, and working hard in her Aikatsu. In the second generation, Mizuki is shown to be happier and more relaxed than in the previous season, due to the stress of being top idol being taken off of her shoulders.

Etymology
Mizuki (美月): Mi (美) means beauty. This might be a reference to her as idol, since many people say that she is very cute and/or beautiful. Zuki (月 tsuki) means moon. The moon is Mizuki's symbol. It represents how she is ever shining brightly, but is high in the sky where anyone has yet to reach and overtake her light.

Kanzaki (神崎): Kan (神) means God. This may be a reference to her being the top idol and possible legend. Zaki (崎) means "small peninsula" or "promontory".
