Marin (EntityTopic, 24)
From Compile Worlds
Marin is a secondary protagonist in Puyo Wars. She helps Daichi and Puyorin defeat the evil Angol Mois, and is the only playable female party member in the game. Driving her protectors are pink Puyo, which are incredibly rare, even within the worlds they exist in 2/2Puyo Wars WorldPrimp.
Biography
Little of Marin's past life is known, but what is known is that she is the reincarnation of a pink puyo, interestingly. As a puyo, she was friends with a red puyo named Fray, who was later mutated by Angol Mois. During her time before Puyo Wars, she befriends Sho and constructs her own protector, based on a shark-submarine. She later meets Daichi, having a brief confrontation with him. Later, she appears when Daichi has lost control of his alter-ego, and helps Sho calm him down. After this, she befriends Daichi and helps him put an end to the evil Angol's scheme, resulting in his banishment to the Abyss.
Etymology
Marin's name is a corrupted form of "Marine", which obviously relates to aquatics. This puns with Sho and Daichi's names, who relate to the sky and land respectively. (Sure is Kingdom Hearts in here)
Trivia
- While Marin herself didn't appear in any future games, Ringo Andou's silhouette in early trailers for Puyo Puyo 7 bears strong resemblance to her.
- Madou Encyclopedia also claims there are bonus cards for Madou Monogatari 1-2-3 depicting a pink Puyo persona suspiciously similar to Marin.
- However, this would be a huge coincidence, since Marin was designed by SEGA, according to the Puyo Wars credits.
- Despite being a secondary character, she has more fan art on Pixiv than Daich or Sho.
