Gawr Gura
Gawr Gura is one of the playable characters in HoloCure - Save the Fans!. She belongs to the group HoloMyth and is available at the start of the game. Her Main Weapon is Trident Thrust, her Special Attack is
Shark Call, and she has three other unique skills:
Shark Bite,
Short Height, and
Power of Atlantis.
Gura, alongside the rest of HoloMyth and Council + Promise, is one of the 11 characters introduced in Version 0.3 - the first public version of the game.
Main Weapon
- Main article: Trident Thrust
- Trident Thrust is affected by the area increase of
Knightly Milk.
Special Attack
Skills
- Applies a bonus damage taken debuff on the targets. This stacks additively with itself and other debuffs of the same type.
- Short Height does not appear to have a cooldown period, and is capable of procing in quick succession when moving through crowds of targets.
- Short Height only triggers if shield health is 0. This is unlike the item
Headphones, which does not change with respect to shield health.
- Short Height doesn't actually give +30/+40/+50%
speed stat, but multiplies Gura's speed by x1.3/x1.4/x1.5 times instead.
- The speed bonus does not stack with itself. Triggering Short Height while the previous buff is active refreshes the duration.
- While not stated in its description, Power of Atlantis will spawn additional whirlpools based on its rank, with 2 whirlpools created at level 2, and 3 whirlpools at level 3.
- Applies a bonus damage taken debuff on the targets. This stacks additively with other debuffs of the same type.
- Power of Atlantis is affected by the area increase of
Knightly Milk.
- Power of Atlantis is affected by
Haste.
Other effects
Flat character bonus
Gawr Gura is affected by the Flat character bonus of Cutting Board, and the reduced bonus for
Absolute Wall and
Flattening Board, increasing their projectiles' size.
Overview and Tips
Gura excels in escaping from tight spots and being where she wants to be on the field. Her Power of Atlantis skill can create safe paths of escape by drawing enemies into a concentrated point. Even in the event there are no safe paths, the invincibility and
SPD increase from
Short Height allows her to rush away from danger in relative safety.
On the offensive, though Gura's ATK is only average, the defense debuffs provided by
Shark Bite and
Power of Atlantis allows her to do heightened damage regardless. Gura can further increase her offensive abilities with her special
Shark Call to help deal with tougher enemies if needed.
- As
Shark Bite can be triggered by any attack, Gura synergizes well with weapons that hit rapidly or cover the whole screen, such as
Blood Lust and
Broken Dreams.

Trivia
- Gura using a
trident as her weapon and her
Power of Atlantis skill both reference her lore as being a shark from the mythical sunken city of Atlantis.
- On more than one occasion, Gura has called her trident a fork.[1]
- Gura turning red during
Shark Call is a reference to her original song REFLECT.[2]
- Red Gura is sometimes called "George" based on the time Sakura Miko called Gura "George" during the 2021 Summer Festival on the Hololive Minecraft server. Miko meant to say "Jaws" in reference to the popular shark movie, but her lisp Japanese accent caused Gura to mishear it as "George".[3] Gura has since embraced the nickname.[4]
Short Height references Gura being the second-shortest member of HoloEN with 141cm (only after Koseki Bijou's 140cm) and being the fourth-shortest HoloPro member (as of writing) after Himemori Luna/Koseki Bijou (both 140cm) and La+ Darknesss (139cm). [5]
- Gura's character icon is one pixel shorter than the others, possibly making fun of her stature.
- The concepts for
Shark Call,
Phoenix Fire, and
The Reaper are likely based on the popular Myth's Bad End (formerly known as "HoloMyth vs Ina") fan animation by @Mazumaro. For Gura specifically, Gura's transformation into Red Gura and the water shark attack are likely based directly on a scene from that animation.[6]
