Suite Pretty Cure♪ (スイートプリキュア♪ Suīto Purikyua♪; also known as Suite PreCure) is the my most favorite Pretty Cure series by Toei Animation, premiered on February 6, 2011. This series' theme is related to music.
Plot
Mephisto, the ruler of Minor Land, threatens the world by spreading the Melody of Sorrow throughout the human world. He is also after a powerful item called the Legendary Score, in which the Melody of Happiness is written. The Fairy of Songs, Hummy is sent to the human world to search for the new Pretty Cures to stand up against Mephisto and collect the scattered notes of the Melody of Happiness.
The two chosen Pretty Cures are Hibiki Houjou and Kanade Minamino, two friends who grew up together in Kanon Town. Very different in their personalities, they share one thing in common: A connection to music. No matter how different they are or how much their differences cause them to quarrel, they both continue to share loving hearts. One day they meet Hummy, who comes from Major Land. They have to instantly transform into Pretty Cures to resist the threats and evil music from Mephisto. Can they stop the Melody of Sorrow from disrupting their peaceful town, and can their warped friendship measure up to the bonds of Pretty Cure?

She dreams of being a pastry chef and take over her parents' shop, the Lucky Spoon. She also has a strong love for cats (including Hummy), and is an unequaled "paw fanatic."

Seiren is a female Cat-like "Fairy of Songs" and Mephisto's assistant. Although she was born in Major Land and is friends with Hummy, when her title of the annual singer of the "Melody of Happiness" was given to Hummy instead, she got jealous and asked to be Mephisto's right-hand. But in truth, she was manipulated by Mephisto so he could get the Legendary Score in the first place. As Siren, she has powerful abilities and can create Negatones using her dark powers. She can also use her powers to disguise herself into any being she wishes. As Ellen, she has shown to be a strong fighter and is able to materialize notes and use them as projectiles. Currently she is now lives alone in the flat and fears with crab and ghosts. Her catchphrase is "The heart's beat will never stop! (心のビートはもう止められないわ! Kokoro no bīto wa mou tomerarenai wa!)"
Her potential of being a Pretty Cure was awakened when she realizes her true friendship for Hummy, as it breaks away the mind control Mephisto did to her and saved Hummy. This triggers her transformation into the Pretty Cure of Miracles, Cure Beat. But as exchange, her necklaces shatters and trapping her in human form.

- Ako Shirabe (調辺 アコ Shirabe Ako) / Cure Muse (キュアミューズ Kyua Myūzu)
- Seiyuu: Rumi ŌkuboAko is a student in Public Kanon Elementary, who is in the same class as Kanade's little brother, Souta. She is very mature for her age, but also very cold and not above handing out lectures to her elders, particularly towards Hibiki and Kanade. Unbeknownst to the Pretty Cures, she had masked herself as a mysterious fighter named Cure Muse who aids them using colorful piano keys to form barriers and restraints. She often assists the Pretty Cures if they are trapped, but leaves them to finish off the Negatones. She hid her status under the mask and didn't speak, as her Fairy Tone partner, Dodory, did all the talking. She often declared that she won't partner herself with the Cures until the time was right.During Episode 35, she reveals herself to be Major Land's princess, the daughter of Aphrodite and Mephisto. After her father went missing, she came to Kanon Town and lives with her grandfather, Otokichi to investigate the truth, and her potential of Pretty Cure was awakend in the same time.
Her alter ego is Cure Muse. In her masked form, her theme color is black, and in her true form, her theme color is yellow, and her Fairy Tone is Dodory. She use Tiry and Cure Module to attack instead of using Belltier like previous Cure. She introduces herself as "Playing the goddess' tune, Cure Muse!" (爪弾くは女神の調べ!キュアミューズ! Tsumabiku wa megami no shirabe, Kyua Myūzu!)
Trivia
Before the real designs of Cure Beat and true form of Cure Muse appears, in the leaked scans they have previous designs. I think Toei want to make fun on this trivia. Here we are:
- Cure Beat (キュアビートKyua Bīto) - Having dark and light blue as her theme color. From her hair style, her real identity is Waon Nishijima, Hibiki's sport teammate. But, Toei confirmed that she is Siren/ Ellen Kurokawa (see below, due for 2011 earthquake in Japan?).
- Cure Symphony (キュアシンフォニー Kyua Shinfonī) - Having dark and light purple as her theme color. From the info I got, her real identity was Seika Higashiyama, the Queen of Sweets. But the strong candidates are Cure Muse, because her Fairy Tone, Dodory, is purple in color, but the fourth Cure name is officially confirms Cure Muse instead of Symphony (see above).
Mascots
Hummy (ハ ミィ Hamyi)
Seiyuu: Kotono Mitsuishi / REMI (young Hummy)
Female cat-like Fairy of Songs, and the partner of both Hibiki and Kanade. She is the annual singer of the Melody of Happiness. Hummy is sent to the human world to search and collect the scattered notes of the Melody of Happiness until she met both Hibiki and Kanade. Has an ability to summon seven Fairy Tones (excluding Dodory), detecting Pretty Cure's hearts, also she is able to purify the scattered note when Cure Melody, Cure Rhythm or Cure Beat use Belltier attack, and received the lost items by clapping. She ends up her sentence with "Meow (ニャ Nya)".
Mephisto (メフィスト Mefisuto)
Seiyuu: Kenyu Horiuchi
The former King of the nation Minor Land. He attempts to make the Melody of Happiness into the Melody of Sorrow to turn all worlds tragic, and to fulfill his taste of music. Mephisto has the power to brainwash others into doing his bidding using headphones that sound the Noise of Evil, but later it turns out that Mephisto is a victim of the Noise of Evil himself, who was Aphrodite's husband, the prince consort of Major Land, but after being ambushed and controlled by Noise when he went to retrieve the Hearing Chest in the cursed forest, he established Minor Land. In Episode 36, Ako manages to defeat the evil in his heart and return him back to normal. Mephisto tends to gush about Ako.
Bassdrum (バスドラ Basudora) (green), Baritone (バ リトン Bariton) (blue), and Falsetto (ファ ルセット Farusetto) (pink)
Seiyuu: Atsushi Ono (Bassdrum), Yohei Obayashi (Baritone), Tooru Nara (Falsetto)
The ministers of Mephisto and the chorus Trio the Minor (トリオ・ザ・マイナー Torio za Mainā), who work with Siren. They always together and sing in unison rather than speak individually. Sometimes they can separately and one of them can make the scattered notes into Negatone. Later in Episode 11, Bassdrum becomes the leader after Siren fired from her position as a leader. They always collect a lot of Notes in order to become a leader. In Episode 26, they received powerups by using earphones with evil noise to receive upgraded forms (bottom) to find notes easier before Pretty Cure does and powerup the Negatone.
Starting from the end of Episode 36, Falsetto becomes the leader because Mephisto turns good and powerup Bassdrum and Baritone again into beast in beginning of Episode 37.

Negatone (ネガトーン Negatōn)
The Negatones are the series' monsters of the week. These are created from a scattered note inside an item through Siren's or one of Trio the Minor powers. Only Pretty Cure can purified and makes Negatone to sleep and return to scattered note, while the items is keep in a good condition.
Noise (ノイーズ Noīzu) / Little P (ピーちゃん Pī-chan)
Noise is a powerful evil demon and the main antagonist of the series. He is the one responsible for turning Mephisto evil as his powers can brainwash everyone who hears his song. Otokichi was once able to seal it away inside a fossil, however, Falsetto is trying to revive him by playing the Melody of Sorrow to draw energy from those who fall into sorrow listening to it. He is sort of like a dragon. After it breaks free from the seal upon hearing an incomplete Melody of Sorrow, it assumes a weird bird form, which Ako named Pii-chan, and used this form to get close to the Cures and steal their Notes. However, he was soon discovered to be Noise after he attempted to attack Otokichi and it's proven true thanks to Hibiki.
