Heaven Crystals |
- "Blessed with powers of heaven!"— The Cures summoning their crystals
The Heaven Crystals (天の結晶 Amano kesshō?) are power up items appearing in the Sky Pretty Cure Series, which had their debut in the first season, Sky Pretty Cure. The Heaven Crystals grant the Pretty Cures new and stronger attacks as well as a group attack once all Crystals are activated. The Heaven Crystals are created by the mythical Rainbow Tears, which the Cures have to collect in the first half of the first season. As soon as all Tears are collected, their power fuses to the six legendary Heaven Crystals.
Each Heaven Crystal has its own name, based on the Pretty Cure wielding it and the power the girl posseses. They made their first debut in episode 28, when Cure Whitney cured the Cinderella story for its Fairy Tale Curse.
Crystals[]
Every Crystal has it's own name. The Crystals are named after the Cures powers or theme colors. They are as follows:
- Rouge Crystal (ルージュ結晶 Rūju Kesshō?): Cure Crimson's crystal that gives her the power to use Crystal Fire.
- Tonnerre Crystal (トネール結晶 Tonēru Kesshō?): Cure Saffron's crystal that gives her the power to use Crystal Storm.
- Luce Crystal (ルース結晶 Rūsu Kesshō?): Cure Sienna's crystal that gives her the power to use Crystal Rising.
- Gruen Crystal (グルーエン結晶 Gurūen Kesshō?): Cure Cyan's crystal that gives her the power to use Crystal Breeze.
- Schnee Crystal (シュネー結晶 Shunē Kesshō?): Cure Azure's crystal that gives her the power to use Crystal Blizzard.
- Bianko Crystal (ビアンコ結晶 Bianko Kesshō?): Cure Whitney's crystal that gives her the power to use Crystal Speed.
- Starlight Crystal (星光結晶 Seikō Kesshō?): Rainbow Angel's crystal with which she can use Sekai ni Rainbow Color.
Etymology[]
The names of the Heaven Cyrstals originate from words that are connected with the Cure's power or theme color. The name of Cure Crimson's Rouge Crystal comes from the French word rouge, which means "red" if it is translated into English. The Gruen Crystal's name comes from the German word "grün", which literally means "green", while bianko is an Italian word that means "white". Further more, the Tonnerre Crystal comes from the French word "tonnerre", which means "thunder". Luce is an Italian word that means "light", and schnee is German and means "snow" in English. In addition, the name of the Starlight Crystal comes from the Japanese word 星光 (seikō?), which literally means "star light".
