Ready to perform a live concert with music and dance, the Cuties are the idol version of {{Ca|Sham}} and {{Ca|Sora}}, featuring a mix of each other's original stats. A powerful duo, the Cuties feature a below average health stat of 4, a boosted evasion stat, neutral recovery, and passive that provides a bonus +1 buff to attack or defense randomly every battle. As a result, the player will essentially be using either Sora or Sham every combat phase, both of whom are strong characters. This provides the duo with both survivability through a boosted evasion and defense and a decent amount of attack power when they receive extra attack. Either way, the Cuties benefit greatly by having no negative stats to compensate for their lackluster health pool, making them a force to be reckoned with. The duo also has a powerful secondary passive which enables them to gain additional stars for every different event card the player activates, when they receive stars from any source. While the effect may seem minimal, it can enable the Cuties to amass stars quickly, as each chapter start will have an extra boost as will each {{Bonus}} panel and card effect that grants stars. The stacks of Events Crashed also never deplete which makes the effect that much more powerful over time, especially if begun early in the game. The effect being based on event cards is also beneficial, as there are often multiple ones in the deck, and the player can bring weaker cards like {{Ci|We Are Waruda}} to feed the passive with little risk to themselves. The Cuties also feature an extremely powerful hyper card this if used correctly can provide them with mountains of stars during the end game. |

Overview
Ready to perform a live concert with music and dance, the Cuties are the idol version of and , featuring a mix of each other's original stats. A powerful duo, the Cuties feature a below average health stat of 4, a boosted evasion stat, neutral recovery, and passive that provides a bonus +1 buff to attack or defense randomly every battle. As a result, the player will essentially be using either Sora or Sham every combat phase, both of whom are strong characters. This provides the duo with both survivability through a boosted evasion and defense and a decent amount of attack power when they receive extra attack. Either way, the Cuties benefit greatly by having no negative stats to compensate for their lackluster health pool, making them a force to be reckoned with. The duo also has a powerful secondary passive which enables them to gain additional stars for every different event card the player activates, when they receive stars from any source. While the effect may seem minimal, it can enable the Cuties to amass stars quickly, as each chapter start will have an extra boost as will each 
Bonus panel and card effect that grants stars. The stacks of Events Crashed also never deplete which makes the effect that much more powerful over time, especially if begun early in the game. The effect being based on event cards is also beneficial, as there are often multiple ones in the deck, and the player can bring weaker cards like 
We Are Waruda to feed the passive with little risk to themselves. The Cuties also feature an extremely powerful hyper card this if used correctly can provide them with mountains of stars during the end game.
While very strong, the cuties are not without their faults. Like any 4 hp character with only an evasion stat to rely on, the Cuties are very susceptible to 
Boss panels if the player does not receive +1 defense. Likewise, since the bonus stats are provided at random, they may not give the stat the player needs at the time such as defense during an assault and vice versa. Also, given that the stat boosts are only +1s, they may prove to give extremely exciting results or barely help at all depending on the player's luck. The Cuties also are unable to use wins Norma which, while better than the , can be a problem on boards like Tomomo's Abyss where combat and wins often plays a big role.
