Haru Yoshioka

Haru is the main character of "The Cat Returns". She is a high-school student who saved a cat (who turned out to be the Cat King's only son Prince Lune) from getting hit by a truck, and got shocked when he talked (she had forgotten she talked to a kitten when she was a little girl). She didn't want any repayment, but the Cat King intended for her to marry Prince Lune as repayment (though it was later revealed after he chose Yuki, the same cat whom Haru had fed fish crackers to when they were little, as his bride, the king wanted to marry Haru himself), but she didn't want to marry a cat at all. In the English dub, she is voiced by Anne Hathaway.
