Bukku (ブック  Bukku ) is the main fairy of  Fairytale Pretty Cure!. He is the Prince of Fanciful Kingdom who came to the human world to find the Pretty Cure to save his world.

Abilities
It does not seem that Bukku possess any magical, or helpful abilities to aid the Pretty Cure. Only the ability to eat twenty full-sized strawberry cream sandwiches in a single seating.

But, without his own magic and power, Bukku still tries to find ways to support the Cure. Mostly motivating Imari with insults.

Appearance
Bukku is cream-coloured with orange heart-shaped markings on the sides of his dark red eyes to resemble his pink heart ears. He has a dual-orange star mark on his forehead. Bukku is always seen wearing his golden jewelled crown and red cape with a yellow diamond pendent.

Personality
Bukku is a prideful and short-tempered fairy who always finds something to criticise. He acts like a spoiled brat for being royalty, the Prince of Fanciful Kingdom, as he repeatedly states. Because of his status, he acts confident and never allows himself to waver in his decisions; even if he doesn't posses all of the knowledge. But, deep-down, Bukku has a soft-spot and is shown to be very caring and would fight tooth and nail to protect his loved ones.

History
As his home, Fanciful Kingdom, was under attack by Kuroizado and the Dark Charm Knights, Bukku managed to escape and sent in search of the Pretty Cure to save his world.

Meeting Imari Suzukawa
Bukku lands in Yūkibarano and collides head-on with Imari. Unaware that the Dark Charm Knights were sent after him by Kuroizado to retrieve him before he can discover all four Pretty Cure. But, when Imari interferes with their plans and vows to protect the the fairy prince. With this, Imari unlocks her PreHeartBook and transforms into Cure Fable.

Meeting Tomoka Fukumoto
When Imari accidentally collides with the Student Council Vice President and both of their book bags gets swapped. Bukku ends up in the hands of Tomoka. But, when Bukku notices that she also ends up taking Imari's PreHeartBook, he realizes that Imari doesn't have the ability to transform into Cure Fable and defend herself against the Dark Charm Knights. Bukku and Tomoka takes a ride in one of her limousines to find Imari in time. During this moment, Bukku and Tomoka connect with each other. So, when the Endingu attacks them and tries to snatch Bukku, Tomoka puts herself in danger to try and save him. The act of bravery unlocked Tomoka's PreHeartBook and transforms into Cure Mythical.

Relationships
Imari Suzukawa - Imari is the first Cure that Bukku meets. He lives with her and goes everywhere she goes. Bukku gets easily irritated with her when it comes to her clumsiness and overly agreeable nature. He has a habit of calling her idiot, stupid, or doofus. However, Bukku secretly admires Imari's determination and claims that she is the reason why he believes they can save their worlds.

Tomoka Fukumoto - Tomoka is the second Cure that Bukku meets. Bukku slips a few insults here and there like he does with Imari, but he will also always lift an ear to what is on her mind and shows to have a more emotional relationship with Tomoka. They can both easily lower their guard when they are around each other. In Episode 14, Bukku decides to stay with Tomoka at her mansion to feel more at home.
