Cure Knight
When she transforms, her hair becomes green, grows longer and becomes tied into a ponytail. Cure Knight appears to be a mechanised spacesuit, filled with a strange green liquid. She has transparent gloves on her hands, with the liquid inside. Her mouth has extensions, which make it look like a gasmask, and she has green eyes with no pupils, which dissapear whenever she closes them. Her boots have two toes. In her helmet and gloves, it appears to have some sort of gas, considered by most to be a “nebula”.

When idle, Cure Knight continues to move her arms up and down. Occasionally, Cure Knight jumps in slow motion, as if she is in low gravity, is buoyed up, or is very light for her volume like a balloon.

Cure Knight

In order to transform, she needs to say ”Pretty Cure! Shining Activation!”. In this form, she can be able to jump in slow motion.

Transformation sequence
The sequence begins with Mayu’s PrePhone opening up and her reflection is shown in the mirror. She is now wearing a green translucent dress and she then shouts “Pretty Cure! Shining Activation!” as the buns of her hair dissapear, and her hair becomes down. Her Cure Charm appears and she then shouts “Heart!” as she grabs it and inserts it into the phone. Then a small light pink stylus-like pen appears, which she takes and presses the light pink stars, saying “heroic” when pressing the first one and “stars” after pressing the second one. Beams of dark green and white-coloured light respectively shine from the small button-like part of the phone after she presses them. She then shouts “Straight Heart!” as she uses the stylus to mix the two lights together, which spin around and coalesce into a string-like substance. Part of it becomes a trampoline for Mayu to stand on top of as vines swirl above her.

She then jumps up into the air and then her hair turns into a green colour with her eyes brightening to green. She is wearing a a mechanised spacesuit. Her hair is styled into a ponytail. The energy covers Mayu’s arms, forming her gloves. She causes her mouth extensions to appear by making the energy on her mouth. Her helmet appears along with her boots. She then introduces herself before striking her finishing pose.
