===Appearance===
Onpu is a pale-fair skinned girl with big, uniquely shaped, dark purple eyes. She has medium length purple colored hair that frames her face with three thin bangs and two thick strands in front of her ears. Her hair has pointed lining in the back and she wears a small amount of it in a curvy pigtail on the left side of her head, held with a pale mint scrunchie. However, depending on which outfit she is wearing, the scrunchie will change to reflect it.
+
Onpu has fair skin and large, dark purple squared eyes that lack a pupil. Her purple hair is about chest length that she wears loose with a small side-tail held by a mint scrunchie. Her forelocks curve inward to frame her face, and she has few strands acting as bangs at the middle of her forehead.
   
  +
Normally Onpu wears a mint T-shirt with a light purple sleeveless dress that has a circle window on the chest, held by a purple button. This was paired with dark purple leggings and a pair of yellow and white sneakers.
Onpu's original attire consists of a lavender sleeveless dress on top of a loose, pale mint green T-shirt and a pair of dark purple leggings. Her shoes are simple yellow and white sneakers. For the last three seasons, Onpu began to wear a lilac dress with sleeves and a thin, pale yellow string tied into a thin bow below her chest. Her leggings remained the same, while her shoes lost their laces, and her scrunchie became pale yellow.

One of her winter outfits is a puffy yellow jacket with a purple scarf and mittens, boots, and earmuffs.

===Personality===
 
===Personality===
  +
Onpu is kind and comes off as playful and friendly, with her natural cuteness usually being enough to distract others or cause them to let their guard down. She is well-liked and dedicated to her career, and very smart. She is normally mature and calm-minded, but she can be flustered or confused with unusual behavior, and she is known for being blunt when it comes to her opinions or whenever she has to tell someone something they might not understand. She refuses to sugarcoat reality and believes in facing the truth. She is sharp, and at times can be manipulative. 
A girl known for her cuteness, Onpu is very popular with everyone and well-liked. She is caring for others and generally nice, but she also believes in being honest and telling people things they may not want to hear. She acts maturely and is usually cool-headed, but because of this some people tend to misjudge her by saying she doesn't really care about the feelings of others. But Onpu is pretty stubborn and if hearing this bothers her, she wont say anything about it and just continue to wear a smile. She rarely ever gets angry, but the one thing that will set her off is seeing someone who has a passion for something fail to take it seriously.
 
Often Onpu is pretty busy. She deals with a lot of idol work, such as filming movies or television shows, recording albums, modeling, radio shows, interviews, even holding concerts. While she handles all of her work with stride, she suffers by getting really tired and low on fatigue, which often results in her losing consciousness.
 
   
  +
At times Onpu can be stubborn, and because of how seriously she is about her career she can become frustrated with those who treat it so lightly or whenever she worries that she could be replaced. She isn't easy to rile up or get upset, but during emotional moments she is known for shutting herself off from others in order to figure things out and come to terms with them. She attempts to remain all smiles to avoid letting others notice how unhappy she is. At the start of the series she was shown to be selfish and self-serving, but she quickly got over it.
Because she tries to block out her true feelings, when alone Onpu can become quite sullen and show her gloomy side. This mainly stems from feelings of inadequacy, realizing that she could easily be replaced by the next cute thing, or worrying that she may not be doing her best sometimes. She often finds doubt in herself and wonder why she tries to work so hard to begin with. She also feels very lonely because of how much she tends to miss from time to time. During these times, Onpu tends to seclude herself from and generally be very quiet, even a little cold to others without really meaning it or noticing.
 
   
  +
While she handles everything in stride, she is shown suffering from feelings of loneliness and inadequacy. Her health also declines whenever she pushes herself to surpass her limits.
While Onpu is given a lot of compliments and kind responses, she actually really enjoys being given more heartfelt ones instead. She has fans of all ages due to her charm, and also shows that she is crafty, sharp, and very creative.
 
   
==As an ojamajo==
+
==Witch Apprentice==
Soon after the ojamajos defeated [[Majoruka|MajoRuka]], Onpu came across her while at an idol camp near a beach and caught her using magic. This turned her into a [[Witch frogs|witch frog]] and thus prompted Onpu to became MajoRuka's witch apprentice. Onpu's initial reaction wasn't shown, but she adored the witch costume when she first tried it on and thought the idea sounded like fun.
+
During her time at the beach recovering from her humiliating defeat, Majoruka was caught by Onpu -who had been attending the nearby Idol training camp- and outed as a Witch. This led to Onpu becoming her Apprentice while Majoruka became a secondary manager in order to pay for her stay in the Human World. While her initial reaction wasn't shown, she was seen admiring her new uniform and brought up how fun it sounded.
   
  +
Time passed and the girls began to hear about a "''genius witch apprentice''" who managed to advance through her exams in a short period of time and skipped a couple. It was then Onpu appeared at their school, and seeing as the girls failed to see the connection, she invited them to her approaching audition to reveal that she was that Apprentice.
At first, Onpu knew she was rivals with Doremi and co., claiming she would defeat them easily. She proved this by how far she had advanced and how quickly she passed the exams, even getting to skip a few. While being an idol in the human world, Onpu was known as the ''Apprentice Witch Prodigy'' in the Magic World and from the word spread by Witches. 
 
   
  +
Until their final exams, the girls were shown worrying over Onpu and tried to convince her not to use forbidden magic, but she refused, causing her charm to shatter after she used to make their friends and family forget seeing them in witch form after their final exam. She fell into a coma, resulting in the girls sacrificing their own Apprentice titles to save her. In return, Onpu officially joined them.
She has great magic skills and never seems to mess up with her spells. She even learned the special writing of the witch world and was made a special charm that would allow her to cast as much [[Forbidden Magic|forbidden magic]] as she wanted. 
 
   
  +
Onpu was shown to be good at spell casting and flying. Majoruka also taught her well enough to skip exams, and she learned how to read the witch world's writing system.
Her yousei is [[Roro]] and her Crystal Ball is in the shape of a droplet.

===Spells===
Until half of a year before the series began, Onpu kept in touch with Doremi through phone calls. She mysteriously vanished with no sign or hint as of where to, even refusing to come to the school reunion, instead sending an apology to Hazuki asking her to tell everyone. Due to the media-related stress and trash talk she soon took an alternate identity for some time while trying to find new management since Majoruka returned to the Real World. She continued life as normal would allow and the others have been trying to help her.

Eventually they locate Onpu in Hokkaido. The others, along with [[Oyajide]], go to see her and find out that Onpu had taken time off from trying to help her career to tend to her [[Miho Segawa|mother]], who suffered a stroke and was recovering. She also turns down the offer to become an apprentice out of fear she would succumb to using forbidden magic again to heal her. But she eventually does cave in and agree, while helping the shop when she can after she moves into an apartment in town.

Since then Onpu has gotten work with a company that Karen introduced her to. She's been studying her idol career again and has been participating in a play.
 
 
Like the others, Onpu hasn't really changed other than developing into a teenager, having gained a womanly figure and a mature beauty as noted by the others. Her hair is worn to chest length now and she keeps her pigtail, but it is being worn much smaller. She was shown to wear a floral print dress with small puffed sleeves and either leggings, or tights.  
 
 
==Past==
 
As she grew up, Onpu was in her mother's shadow and seemed to only be doing these things because her mother forced her. This was until Onpu, as a child, told her mom she wanted to become an Idol. Onpu's mother fully supported this.
 
 
Onpu was a very curious little girl and liked to explore the town when she had the time to do so. She often would climb the pathways, climb up on the telescope to look through it, and try to hop up and grab fruit off of a tree, despite knowing she wouldn't be able to reach it.
 
   
  +
==History==
Onpu's behavior as a little child was playful and very friendly. When meeting her future self, she began to wave without hesitation.
 
  +
As a toddler, Onpu was curious and enjoyed observing the scenery. She one day announced to her mother that she aspired to become an Idol like her.

Doremi thinks Onpu is very cute and Onpu likes to tease her in a playful way. Because of Doremi reaching out to her, Onpu befriended them. She claims that Doremi is the reason she didn't become a mean and cold idol and believes this to be a good quality Doremi possesses.
+
Doremi thinks Onpu is really cute, and Onpu enjoys teasing her. As a result, they have a close bond, and it was mainly Doremi's influence that caused her to befriend the group, which she reveals late in the series when she tells her that if she hadn't befriended her, she most-likely would have become cold and mean when she got older.

+
Initially Momoko and Onpu got off on the wrong foot when Momoko's blunt attitude caused her to angrily leave. But they became close friends after reconciling, and they can often be found together.

Momoko thinks highly of Onpu and adores her, with Onpu being the reason that she chose to became an apprentice again in the light novel.

She was away a lot and very busy due to work, but she often made up for it by showing up during the evening when the others left to take care of her until she fell asleep.

Onpu would do anything for Hana-chan, even if it meant eating something she dislikes to the point of becoming physically ill.
Onpu seems to be very smart when it comes to raising Hana-chan and sings her to bed almost every single night. Hana-chan, unfortunately, causes trouble while trying to help her on multiple occasions but only for the sake of helping her. Despite not being there all the time, she does think Onpu is a good mother to her. Onpu has also made it clear she'd do anything to help Hana-chan, such as forcing herself to eat things she dislikes. In Dokkan, Hana admires Onpu very much and thinks of her when she is not with them.

This led to Onpu becoming her Apprentice while Majoruka became a secondary manager in order to pay for her stay in the Human World. While her initial reaction wasn't shown, she was seen admiring her new uniform and brought up how fun it sounded.

Time passed and the girls began to hear about a "genius witch apprentice" who managed to advance through her exams in a short period of time and skipped a couple. It was then Onpu appeared at their school, and seeing as the girls failed to see the connection, she invited them to her approaching audition to reveal that she was that Apprentice.

Until their final exams, the girls were shown worrying over Onpu and tried to convince her not to use forbidden magic, but she refused, causing her charm to shatter after she used to make their friends and family forget seeing them in witch form after their final exam. She fell into a coma, resulting in the girls sacrificing their own Apprentice titles to save her. In return, Onpu officially joined them.

Onpu was shown to be good at spell casting and flying. Majoruka also taught her well enough to skip exams, and she learned how to read the witch world's writing system.

Her fairy is Roro and her Crystal Ball is in the shape of a droplet.

History

As a toddler, Onpu was curious and enjoyed observing the scenery. She one day announced to her mother that she aspired to become an Idol like her.

Relationships

Doremi

Doremi thinks Onpu is really cute, and Onpu enjoys teasing her. As a result, they have a close bond, and it was mainly Doremi's influence that caused her to befriend the group, which she reveals late in the series when she tells her that if she hadn't befriended her, she most-likely would have become cold and mean when she got older.

Hazuki

Onpu and Hazuki are the more sensible and feminine of the group and agree on many things. They understand each other and get along with no problems. Onpu is patient and kind when she speaks about Hazuki or tries to encourage her.

Aiko

Onpu and Aiko are often seen together throughout the series. They appear to think alike and naturally get along, with Aiko shown taking to her fairly quickly after they met. At times their opinions may clash, but they rarely ever get into disputes. They often express concern over the other, and Aiko is normally shown to be capable of noticing when something is off.

Momoko

Initially Momoko and Onpu got off on the wrong foot when Momoko's blunt attitude caused her to angrily leave. But they became close friends after reconciling, and they can often be found together. Onpu often lends Momoko a shoulder whenever she is feeling down, and she has a tendency to show up whenever Momoko needs one. Momoko thinks highly of Onpu and adores her, with Onpu being the reason that she chose to became an apprentice again in the light novel.

Hana-chan

At first Onpu appeared to be naturally capable of raising Hana the most. She was away a lot and very busy due to work, but she often made up for it by showing up during the evening when the others left to take care of her until she fell asleep. Hana admires Onpu and often tries to help her, even though her help is often misguided. Despite Onpu having to be stern with her, they care about each other strongly. Onpu would do anything for Hana-chan, even if it meant eating something she dislikes to the point of becoming physically ill.

Pop

Onpu has no problem complimenting Pop and bringing up how much smarter than Doremi she is, and during her antagonist days she got along with her. Pop really cares about Onpu.

Karen

A shy, meek girl who Onpu befriends after they make conversation during auditions for a drama. Karen won the role after Onpu uses her magic to help her, but she accepted her loss with no problem, helping Karen find her courage and gain a professional career in acting. During Dokkan, as Hana-chan and Doremi worried about the career of their favorite show because of the lead actors issues, Onpu revealed to them that she got Karen to take over the role, showing that she still has a bond with her. During her time away in the light novel, they are shown hanging out a lot more and often make conversation.

Magical DoReMi

In the English dub, Onpu was renamed Ellie Craft. In comparison to Onpu's initial charming and cunning attitude, Ellie appeared to be openly rude and snobby.
