Only in Japan!
Gomen'nasai! This article is related to a game, manga series or other media that has not been released outside Japan. The coverage here may differ from what it would be in an official translation.
Mattel[1] is a cute pink fish from the Amiy Kingdom who (excluding a cameo in Super Princess Peach) makes her debut in Densetsu no Starfy 4, in which she seeks Starfy's help in saving her homeland from Degil and evil invaders. She is a maid who is one of the four sages, who becomes the princess of the Amiy Kingdom at the end of the game. Starfy has a strong crush on her.
At the end of the first ending, Prince Coral reveals that Mattel is his fiancee, leaving both Starfy and Starly feeling shattered. They turn to stone with their mouths wide open, but this was probably only put in by the developers to create a comedic effect and the effect may not have been permanent.
The fact that Mattel is already with someone leaves Starfy feeling depressed in his room after the event. Starly seemed to accept it even though this special person is Coral, and Moe failed to make Starfy happy again, however, Starfy accepts it in time and continues his adventure with Starly and Moe to collect all the Answers Cards and truly defeat Degil. After Degil is defeated, Coral and Mattel get married and Mattel thanks everyone, in particular Starfy for his help in saving the Amiy Kingdom.
In an Easter egg, Mattel can be seen as a design on the Starfish's sleeping mat in Super Princess Peach. Possibly due to an oversight, this occurred even before the release of Densetsu no Starfy 4.[2]
