Love Hunter Rafisol Rafisol ver. Ram Rafisol Mirror Rafisol Shadowcrown Rafisol Ally & Rafisol

Rafisol is a dark entity born from Ally's pendant, the Pendant of Luwa, who does not fully understand her existence. According to Ecolo who brought the pendant from another universe, it absorbs love power from its wearer and produces an evil being. Rafisol serves as the main antagonist and final boss of Puyo Puyo Chronicle. She shares Ally's likeness, but her palette is inverted from her counterpart.

Biography

Appearance

Rafisol is very similar to Ally, but with shuffled and inverted colors and sharper hair. The trim on her dress is also different, as opposed to Ally's soft scallop trim, Rafisol has sharper edges.

Personality

Initially, Rafisol is introduced as a dark and unfeeling existence whose sole purpose is to take everything. When she is defeated by the group, she becomes desperate to cling onto her existence and attempts to seize Ally's power to make up for what she has lost. After Arle, Amitie, and Ringo save Ally, Ally communicates to Rafisol that she could feel Rafisol's desire to fall in love, and truly did not want her to disappear.

Rafisol struggles to express her emotions and feels that as she is an evil existence, she should not feel happiness or be helped by Ally and the rest of the party. This is especially true for Ally as she expresses regret during post-game at hurting Ally, and is confused as to why Ally still wishes to befriend her in spite of that. She also has a tendency to be narrow-minded, such as thinking that consuming or absorbing things into herself is the answer to everything.

Abilities

In Puyo battles, the theme of her spells seems to be pragmaticism. She uses Hide, Snatch, Take Over, Domination, and Disorder to best her foes. She is particularly capable at playing Puyo, doing so on par with other final bosses such as Satan, Carbuncle, and Ecolo: even without Core AI, if Quick Drop is an option in the current game mode, she will always use it.

Relationships

Ally
Rafisol was born from the power of Ally's love being absorbed into the Pendant of Luwa, and is redeemed by Ally even after Rafisol attempts to steal her power for herself. The two are friends by the end of the game as indicated by the post-credits scene where Rafisol smiles up at Ally from within the pendant.
Ecolo
Ecolo was the one who brought the Luwa Pendant into Ally's world and was aware of the Pendant of Luwa's ability to spawn an evil being when it absorbed love. After the final battle in the Color Tower, he and Satan grant Rafisol the ability to sustain her existence without needing to absorb everything into herself. Ecolo specifically gives her the ability to retreat into the pendant in order to preserve her strength.

History

Puyo Puyo Chronicle

Rafisol makes her first appearance in the Tower of Color. Throughout the Tower of Color, Ally is shown to be in some sort of pain, but Ally brushes it off and tells Arle that she's fine, this is hinted to be Rafisol beginning to break free of the pendant. Near the top, Rafisol speaks to the party twice, the first time she questions her existence, the second time she warns that soon she will "End Everything" once Arle's party reaches the summit of the tower, using all the magic gathered in the tower. She does not show herself, due to still being in the pendant, leaving the party confused as to where the voice is coming from. Once Arle and her party reaches the top of the Tower of Color, Ally stops and gasps in pain, making the entire party notice and wonder what's hurting her, Ally finally admits to being in pain and says it's from her pendant. A flash of white emits from the pendant and Rafisol breaks free from Ally's pendant. Amitie is the first to notice Rafisol and points her out to everyone else. After exposition from Ecolo, Arle and her party challenges Rafisol to a puyo battle, in which she loses. After the battle, Rafisol resists and begins to take control of Ally, attempting to drain all of Ally's power. However, with the help of Arle and the party, Ally breaks free of Rafisol's control and returns Rafisol to Ally's pendant. In the post-credits scene, we see Rafisol inside Ally's pendant, and it's implied Ally has managed to teach Rafisol about love.

Rafisol is seen again in her post-game Master Quest, where she is tasked to have a Puyo battle overflowing with love while smiling. She claims to be able to do it on her own, and attempts to refuse Ally's offers to battle with her as Rafisol feels that they have no connection with one another. Ally eventually persuades Rafisol to battle with her, and her Master Quest is completed. This initially confuses the others as she did not smile during the battle, but after she leaves, Ally concludes that Rafisol must have smiled in her heart even if she did not physically smile.

Puyo Puyo Puzzle Pop

Warning: The following article or section contains major spoilers.

Rafisol is a side story character that is first encountered at the end of Ally's episode. The two girls were transported from their world and into the Dream World. According to Feli, they must find their way home together.

Rafisol's side story became playable with the game's fifth content update on August 29th, 2024. Her story follows hers and Ally's journey through the Dream World in pursuit of Meena so they can return to their world. Along the way, Rafisol's curt interactions with others causes Ally to try and encourage her to act kinder to other people. Most of these attempts end fruitlessly, with Rafisol continuing to be abrasive in spite of Ally's encouragement and her own best attempts at being more personable. The story ends with Rafisol attempting to tell Ally that she should just forget about her and allow her to live the rest of her life in solitude, which Ally refuses to accept and Puyo battles her. After the Puyo battle, Ally asks Rafisol if she had fun, which Rafisol doesn't admit. Ally then reminds her that Puyo battles require at least two people to play, so Ally will be staying by Rafisol's side no matter what Rafisol says.

Trivia

  • She does not have a favorite thing, and her least favorite things are human emotions.[2]
  • Rafisol was the first character originating from the main Puyo Puyo series besides Red Amitie, Alter Ecolo, Yellow Satan, and Angelic Feli in Puyo Puyo!! Quest that do not have any single color card. As of December 2020, she now shares this distinction with Marle and Squares.
    • As of August 2021, she now has a single color card.
  • Rafisol lacked any art in the traditional 2D Puyo Puyo style until the release of Volume 2 of the Puyo Puyo LINE Stickers in September 2017, nearly a year after the release of Puyo Puyo Chronicle.
    • She only received full body art in that style upon her inclusion in Puyo Puyo!! Quest.
    • Both of the artworks used for her in Puyo Puyo Champions are from Quest. As a result, she is the only character in the game to lack a third piece of artwork.
  • Rafisol is the only character in Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 whose English voice lines are taken directly from Puyo Puyo Champions.
    • Interestingly, this is not the case for Ally or Serilly, even though all three have had an English localization in Puyo Puyo Champions.

Alternate Voices

  • In Puyo Puyo Chronicle, she sounds higher-pitched and emotional. The voice pitch is similar to that of Feli in Puyo Puyo Tetris.
  • In Puyo Puyo Tetris 2, she sounds much more intense and villainous. In Japanese, it resembles Lemres' alternate voice, while in the English dub, it bears resemblance to Rulue's voice.
