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
Marin's first life was that of a pink puyo, where she had a brother (who some fans may have misinterpreted as a boyfriend... incest anyone?), a red puyo named Fray. According to MadouCyc, she was supposedly killed while protecting Arle, although going by the original game, Marin survived thanks to Arle protecting her. Either way, she ended up being reincarnated as a human in the Puyo Wars World, where she met Sho and constructed her own protector, based on a shark-submarine. Meanwhile, Angol Mois somehow found Fray, brought him to the Puyo Wars World too (possibly along with a great number of other puyo), and deformed the poor red puyo into the Red Fifth.
She later meets Daichi, having a brief confrontation with him. After Daichi has lost control of his alter-ego, she appears again and helps Sho calm him down. The two then befriend Daichi and help him put an end to the evil Angol's scheme, resulting in Angol's 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 Daichi or Sho.
