Personality:
Hermione is originally, pampered and spoiled, and even protected by her wealthy parents, she is passive-aggressive enough that tended to keep her negative feelings since she tried to recover Romeo, until her meeting with Juliet when she tries to kill her, she had finally come to terms with her.

In the Pretty Cure universe, Hermione had a more fiery personality during significant moments if she feel involved or responds to the slightest provocations, she was stubborn, naive and impulsive, and sometimes quite immature in her duty and her true identity as a Shikigami-Fairy, known as Suzaku: The Shikigami of Summer. She hates of giving orders to her (except with her parents and Tybalt), she rebelled and disobeyed easily especially with her master Juliet and often acts on a whim, which often leads and caused her into trouble and also to her friends (as in episode 12 and 13 she has nearly cost Juliet's life because of her immaturity). She often acts as a whimsical princess, and loves being admired by people and is believed to be the most beautiful noblewoman, Hermione can be very haughty by criticizing in some ways she found them too pathetic and boring, as she criticized and treated as liars or ugly to some pretentious posers who believe be the heroes, she believes that the most beautiful will be stronger and able to win, as she loves her true appearence as Suzaku who is considered the most beautiful Shikigami-Fairy. Hermione hates to be involved in fights and even afraid to fighting as she hates violence who seen as a boy case. But it seems that Hermione may also intervene if Juliet had serious problems or even being in danger of death, one might mistakenly believed she think only save herself.

However, Hermione had good sides, she remains sweet, charismatic, and innocent, she's highly protective and caring particularly with her dearest friends like Romeo and Tybalt, her childhood friend if they have any trouble and participate in battles to protect them, one can be mistakenly believe that Hermione thought her appearance and has preferred to save herself, notable with Jo Carpenter/Kirin so she got hard time with her. Despite she still has feelings with Romeo (her ex-fiance in her previous incarnation), and being very distant with Tybalt because of his resemblance to his younger half-brother. It is implied that Hermione had hidden and romantic feelings for Tybalt, and eventually revealed during the Summer festival, despite she preferred to deny and trying to hide her romantic feelings for fear she will be suffering further, every time she thought constantly with him. Hermione acts more as a Yandere than an Tsundere, her purple eyes become cloudy as she going into insane and will not hesitate to kill them if they cause suffering to the loved ones, because Hermione hates to make suffer for those she loves, and spared not those they deserve to die or let them into death for having make them suffer. If they try to threaten Tybalt or close friends, she can become violent and aggresive that can hurt without realizing the consequences. Tybalt is the only one able to stop her and regain consciousness. During the story and mainly in "Yomi Arc", Hermione became much more mature, understandable and brave-hearted, she gain confidence in herself. She is even ready to sacrifice herself for her love towards Tybalt.
