Puyo Pop Fever - Characters

Characters

The different characters of Puyo Pop Fever offer different gameplay. With the addition of groups of three and four Puyos, unlike previous Puyo Pop games, each character has his or her own pattern of which different types of Puyo groups fall onto the field. All the characters are playable in most of the game modes, the only exception being Story Mode, where one must be Amitie or Raffine, respectively. There are also two hidden characters, one possessing a powerful pattern of Puyo groups. Most of their names derive from different languages.

Amitie (アミティ, Amitī?)

Amitie is a spunky, adventurous girl who attends the magic school with Raffine and the rest of the gang. She wears a large, red hat shaped like a Puyo and is the first to set out on the quest to find Accord's cane. She doesn't mind insults too much, and acts ignorant when Raffine insults her. Her name is French for friendship.

Oshare Bones (おしゃれコウベ, Oshare Kōbe?, lit. Sharply-dressed Skull)

Oshare Bones is a skeleton who follows the steps somewhat to Skele-T. He often thinks highly of himself, and tends to put down others who aren't as stylish as him in his opinion.

Klug (クルーク, Kurūku?)

A purple-clad boy in Amitie's and Raffine's class, who is rumored to have a demon possessing him (the demon is actually possessing his book). His attack titles are based on astrological/Latin-based words. Klug is the German word for "clever".

Dongurigaeru (どんぐりガエル, Dongurigaeru?, lit. Acorn Frog)

Dongurigaeru is a frog that rolls around in an acorn top. The only thing he ever says is "ribit" (kero in Japanese).

Rider (リデル, Rideru?)

Rider is generally shy girl that tends to stutter often. Her magic involves the power of thunder, summoning thunderbolts and lightning sparks (all named in Italian).

Onion Pixy (おにおん, Onion?)

Onion Pixy tends to just say gibberish, mostly relating to the word "onion" (in Japanese he merely says "On!").

Ocean Prince (さかな王子, Sakana Ōji?, lit. Fish Prince)

A fish prince thinking he's a king. He's a bit conceited.

Raffine (ラフィーナ, Rafīna?)

Raffine is a snobby girl from a wealthy family who decides to beat Amitie to the punch and find the cane before she does, thus earning Accord's respect. She often exclaims French words; even her own name is French for refined.

Yu & Rei (ユウちゃん＆レイくん, Yū-chan & Rei-kun?)

A happy-go-lucky ghost girl. Yu is derived from the former part of yūrei (幽霊), the Japanese word for 'ghost'. In the English dub, she has a habit of constantly shouting "Yes, indeedy!"

Tarutaru (タルタル, Tarutaru?)

Tarutaru is a large classmate of Amitie and Raffine; his actual age is unknown but has a suspected occupation as a law enforcement officer. He usually uses the Sumo attacks.

Hohow Bird (ほほうどり, Hohō-dori?)

A horribly conceited bird, who overuses the phrases "mmm-hmm" and "uh-huh" and other phrases related to those phrases.

Ms. Accord (アコール先生, Akōru sensei?)

Accord is the teacher of Amitie's magic class alongside her cat puppet Popoi. She is also the diabolical mastermind behind the events transpiring within the PPF world involving her Flying Cane and Popoi. Most of her attacks are Italian words dealing with music, such as allegro (although her name comes from a French word, meaning "chord"). Whether she is supposedly evil or not, is unknown.

Frankensteins (こづれフランケン, Kozure Furanken?, lit. Frankenstein With His Child)

Frankendad, lacking the proper language skills, insists on grunting to get his message across. Frankenson, however, is the "mouth" for his dad and translates for his linguistic-disabled father, with his sentences often starting as "Daddy says" or "my daddy says".

Arle Nadja (アルル・ナジャ, Aruru Naja?)

The original heroine of the previous Puyo Pop classics makes a return from the Compile games as a side character who was "separated" from her own Puyo universe. In a nod to the gameplay of the original Puyo Pop, all of her drops are two-sets.

Popoi (ポポイ, Popoi?)

Popoi is the diabolical looking cat puppet that Accord carries around with her. He is also the boss character of the game. The relationship between the two is largely unknown, and it is widely believed that one is controlling the other. He prefers being called, "Prince of Darkness."

Carbuncle (カーバンクル, Kābankuru?)

Carbuncle is Arle's sidekick and the secondary boss character of the game. Carbuncle really does not speak but just shouts "Ta-da"; or "guu", as usual, in Japanese.
