To Find a Princess is the first episode of the first season of LoliRock.

Synopsis

Teen Iris joins a pop music group and discovers that she and her bandmates are actually superpowered princesses from another world.

Plot

One night, Iris is babysitting a little girl, who prefers for her to sing a lullaby instead of hearing a story. Unknowingly, Iris's voice makes the objects of the room float, which entertains the child. When hearing the girl's mom coming in, Iris stops singing out of surprise, causing the objects in the room to fall everywhere. The mess provokes the mother to fire Iris.

The following day at the Smoothie Bar, Iris complains to Nathaniel, her childhood friend, about losing her third babysitting job and being unable to sing because strange things happen. He insists that she tries out an audition for a new band in town and to not give up on her dreams. Taking his advice, Iris goes to the audition, where Talia and Auriana aren't enjoying the performances by other girls who are auditioning. Iris gives it a go, which leaves the theater halfway destroyed and exposed to the dark forces conspiring in Ephedia. Embarrassed, Iris runs off, leaving Talia and Auriana shocked.

Iris is later found by the twins, Praxina and Mephisto. They immediately start attacking her, but Talia and Auriana appear as their princess forms on Amaru. They encourage Iris to use her voice to defend herself. It effectively forms a shield in front of her, giving Talia time to save Iris. The princesses then take Iris to a cave on the coast. There, Talia and Auriana show Iris that she's the rightful princess and heir of Ephedia and that her destiny is to defeat Gramorr to save their world.

Gramorr summons an audience with Mephisto and Praxina. The twins inform him that Talia and Auriana have found Iris via the singing auditions. They vow to Gramorr that they'll stop the princesses no matter what. Gramorr mutters that the princesses mustn't get the oracle gems.

They return to Iris's home with Aunt Ellen, suggesting to the latter that Talia and Auriana are exchange students. She asks if they can stay over for some time, to which Aunt Ellen agrees. Talia and Auriana start to show Iris how to activate her powers in secret. However, it doesn't work as Iris doesn't know how to activate her pendant and can't pronounce her home realm's name. Not too soon after, they hear a scream and run out of the house to discover Aunt Ellen and the people on the street crystallized. Praxina and Mephisto appear and attack the girls. Talia and Auriana transform into their princess forms and start attacking, but are stuck between Praxina and Mephisto. Fearing for her aunt and her new friends, Iris finally transforms into her princess form. Though not possessing any magical knowledge, she kicks Mephisto, which gives the other girls a chance to fight off Praxina. Mephisto prepares a spell against Talia and Auriana to aid his sister, but Iris summons a small crystal to throw Mephisto off. With the twins cornered, the princesses come together for a stronger spell, ultimately defeating them.

Finally accepting her destiny, Iris looks forward to learning about Ephedia, magic, and being a part of LoliRock. After some practice, the girls do their first concert, presenting "Revolution."

Trivia

  • This is the first episode of the LoliRock series.
  • Iris, Auriana, and Talia are seen transforming for the first time.
    • Their transformation sequences were originally going to be made in 3D CGI animation, but because the creators felt like it did not mesh well with the rest of the show's 2D aesthetic, it was scrapped, although the full 3D transformation sequences were uploaded to Youtube by Nintai, the animation studio who created it.
      • Despite being completely reanimated into 2D, much of the work could be reused, particularly with regards to post production, backgrounds, vfx and storyboarding.[1]

Mistakes

  • When Auriana was talking with Iris about where she actually is from, her eyebrows change color from orange to black. This error may be seen in the later episodes.
  • When Mephisto and Praxina report to Gramorr about the princesses finding Iris, Praxina says Talia and Auriana have found her. However, when Auriana introduces herself at the end of the episode, Praxina says that she has never heard of her. It is possible that Praxina was just teasing her.
