Kasumi is the quiet school council president at Mitsukado Middle School. She excels in her studies and does exceptionally well especially in music leading to students looking up to her. Unfortunately Kasumi often avoids eye contact with anyone and is too shy to make a basic conversation unless it's her close friend or someone older than her. Kasumi can only communicate through her love for music, particularly chiptune and retro music.

As Cure Tunes, she has the power of sound and her screams are literally effective when provoked. Her theme colours are green and purple. Her signature attack is Tunes Encore.

Cyberspace:

Electro / エレクトロ - Electro is Nikou's rabbit-like Navi Partner from Cyberspace and is also one of the Navigators (or Navis for short) who oversees Cyberspace to make sure there aren't any unnecessary bugs and viruses. He has attitude and aims to be the best at everything. Electro and Nikou sometimes get into long agree-to-disagree conversations about their favourite games such as fighting games. Electro does his best to get to know Nikou so that he can be a great power-up for her in the future. He ends his sentences with "~ereku".
