Maroshi is recurring character in Hanazuki: Full of Treasures. He is an ocean-themed Moonflower with a "surfer" personality. Maroshi makes his first appearance in Recovery, where Hanazuki encounters him saving her life from debris from his moon after she goes derelict from a meteor hitting the Noble Unicorn's ship.
Appearance[]
Maroshi has tan skin, two darker linear marks on each cheek and a white triangle on his chest. His hair is blue and the flower on his head resembles a hibiscus. He wears two white bands on his arms. He wears a pair of green trunks with a hula hoop around his waist, and he is topless and barefooted.
Moods[]
Mood/Emotion | Colour | Debut | |
---|---|---|---|
Episode | What Happened? | ||

Chill | Dark Green | Feelin' It | He, Hanazuki, and Kiyoshi were relaxing beneath the black treasure tree that he accidentally planted. |
Personality[]
Maroshi is relaxed to a fault. Though never particularly mean, he does not display any concern towards situations, thus having a devil-may-care personality towards his surroundings in general. This has both its pros and cons, as Maroshi is fun and enjoyable to be with, but tends to be irresponsible, unreliable and unpredictable in dire situations, which could sometimes put his friends (or him) in danger.
In "Feelin' It", Maroshi has trouble understanding how to grow Treasures. Throughout the episode, he felt carefree and relaxed about it. Hanazuki and Kiyoshi tried to make him feel something, but soon discovered that they couldn't force him to feel moods. Maroshi finally expressed his remorse for giving up on his moon as it was destroyed (even though he could not protect the moon in the first place due to having no Treasures available), glowing black and growing a Black Treasure Tree.
History[]
Maroshi, along with Kiyoshi, is a member of the "Garlandians," an association originally led by Kiazuki meant to help and save other moons aside their own from the Big Bad, until progress ceased because of Kiazuki's absence.
He saves Hanazuki from drifting aimlessly into space after she nearly gets hit by an asteroid in the episode Recovery. He uses his flying surfboard and has Wanderer, a Lavender Flochi, with him as he saves her.
In Rescued!, it is revealed that the moon that exploded in the previous episode was his and that it was made mostly of water until the Big Bad attacked, froze the moon and eventually destroyed it. Maroshi evacuated his Flochis into Hanazuki's Moon without making any efforts to save his, an act which would cause him to lose his home. In "Feelin' It", he is discovered to feel regret for not doing anything to save his moon, and grows a black Treasure Tree.
