Hikaru Shidou is one of the main protagonists of the anime/manga series Magic Knight Rayearth. She was created by Clamp and represents the element of Fire.

She is voiced by Hekiru Shiina in the Japanese version, and by Julie Maddalena and Michelle Gulden in the English version.

Appearance[]

Hikaru usually wears her school uniform, which consists of a red long sleeve blouse, a collar and a white ribbon with a black skirt with a line of red at the bottom and white petticoat. After she is summoned to Cephiro, she wears white armor with rubies adorned in it. After her armor reachs the last stage, she wears a very short red, white, and gold armor-like dress with a red cape and matching tiara-like headpiece. Hikaru is very short, with light red braided hair and fiery red eyes.

Personality[]

Hikaru is cheerful and excitable, but shows a lot of wisdom. Her element is Fire and she eventually awakens and wears the Rune God Rayearth. Out of the heroines, she's the quickest to take up the mantle of 'Magic Knight' and is prepared to save Cephiro.

After returning to Cephiro, she tries desperately to understand everyone's motivations and save Cephiro from its fate of destruction. She begins to wonder about the Pillar system and if she ever saw the 'true' Cephiro.

Story[]

Three schoolgirls—the boisterous Hikaru Shidou, the gracefulUmi Ryuuzaki, and the bookish Fuu Hououji—are visiting Tokyo Tower on a class trip with their respective schools when they are suddenly whisked away to the magical land of Cephiro. There, they discover that they have been summoned to become Magic Knights and go on a grand quest to save Princess Emeraude, whose prayers sustain the peace of Cephiro, from the clutches of High Priest Zagato.

Powers & Abilities[]

Hikaru specializes in Fire magic. Her spells include:

  • "Flame Arrow": This is Hikaru's most used magic spell. Although the name suggests that it takes the form of an arrow, it's mostly depicted as an overall flame which attacks the enemy.
  • "Crimson Lightning": This is Hikaru's second spell, and arguably her most powerful. However, it is her least used spell. With this spell, Hikaru gathers lightning energy that takes the form of ruby coloured balls. Each ball of magic is able to do considerable amounts of damage. Hikaru is seen using this spell only once in the second season.

Trivia[]

  • The duel monsters Fortune Fairy En and Fortune Lady Fire seem to be based of Hikaru.
