Combine a state-of-the-art combat android with the brain of a stray cat, wrap it all in the appearance of an enthusiastic teenage girl, and what do you get? Nuku-Nuku, aka Atsuko Natsume, "daughter" of engineer/roboticist/high school teacher Kyusaku Natsume and "sister" of ten-year-old Ryunosuke Natsume. Busty, bouncy and absolutely innocent in the way a kitten is, Nuku-Nuku is also a powerful combat cyborg who is fiercely protective of her family and friends. Since her "father" is the estranged husband of the CEO of Mishima Heavy Industries, Japan's number one military contractor, and she herself is a stolen prototype he created, that means she sees a lot of action. From a pair of trigger-happy goonettes to a psychotic android that wants to steal her body to the task of trying to reunite Kyusaku and his wife so her little brother is happy, Nuku-Nuku approaches every challenge with a smile, a laugh, and a grip that can bend steel I-beams.Originally released as a manga written by Yuzo Takada, All Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku is a fun, light-hearted romp with one of the more endearing anime heroines of the early 1990s. It's proven popular enough to spawn several Alternate Universe Spin-Offs. The anime franchise as a whole consists of three entries: | |

All-Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Tempting Fate: Arisa and Kyouko are injured when Eimi escapes MHI at the beginning of the fourth episode. Later on we see them using this rare chance to take time off from work. Arisa then utters "I only wish we injured a bit more!" Cue Eimi and Nuku-Nuku rocketing into their apartment, wrecking it and leaving them under the remains. | |

Punch-Clock Villain | |
All-Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku / int_20860a0e | comment |
Punch-Clock Villain: Zigzagged with Akiko in the OAV continuity. She's technically the boss of Mishima Heavy Industries (though she actually reports to her own grandfather, who's the head of the company), and in the first episode she orders her underlings Arisa and Kyouko to capture Nuku-Nuku and bring her Ryunosuke by whatever it takes. However, her reason for doing this is because she wants the return of the NK-1124 gynoid she funded and her son Ryunosuke, whom Kyusaku technically stole and kidnapped. In the 2nd OAV, she actually turns out to have not planned to order her underlings to arrange for Ryunosuke to get injured during his trip to the beach after making a "deal" with Kyusaku that if Ryunosuke got hurt on said trip, he would return to Akiko. In the third OAV, she agrees to try and take the role of a traditional housewife in exchange for Kyusaku moving back into her family home with Ryunosuke and Nuku-Nuku, and genuinely does give it her best to live up to it until she realizes Kyusaku basically tricked her. Finally, she's a complete non-antagonist for the last three OA Vs; she's trying to stop the rogue runaway gynoid Eimi in #4, orders Arisa and Kyouko to leave Nuku-Nuku alone at her new job in #5, and actually needs to be saved from a fault Kill Sat in #6. Akiko is downgraded to one of these in TV, as she is seen to still be Happily Married to Kyusaku and acting as a doting mother to Ryunosuke when off the clock. When on the clock, she becomes "Bloody Akiko", completely devoted to fulfilling whatever inane plot her boss has in store that week. Completely averted by Akiko, Arisa, and Kyouko in Dash. They simply work at the company and none of them are in any way depicted as villainous, though all three do at one point or another cross paths with Nuku Nuku in her alternate identity without ever putting it together that she and the 'androbot' they're trying to find are the same person despite having the exact same body type and hair style as well as hair color. Hell, Akiko lives with her! Arisa and Kyouko are this in every incarnation, being literally just Office Ladies who do whatever their boss tells them, whether that's pushing paper or flying around the city in a Mini-Mecha and attacking Nuku-Nuku. | |

Super Drowning Skills | |
All-Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku / int_34bd7be2 | comment |
Super Drowning Skills: Nuku-Nuku can handle water just fine, but she can't swim because her robot body is too heavy to float and she sinks in any large body of water. She is eventually upgraded to get around this. The OAV does imply she can actually drown if she spends too long submerged, as she's shown desperately trying to conserve air. | |

Heavy Sleeper: Ryunosuke is established to be a very heavy sleeper, to the point that in the OAV, Nuku-Nuku's morning routine involves banging on a pot and shouting at him to make him wake up — and he still won't wake until she yanks off his bed covers. | |

Powered Armor | |
All-Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku / int_3d59c9a0 | comment |
Arisa and Kyouko, Akiko's primary underlings, are put through the wringer in both the OAV and the TV continuities. They're constantly failing in their efforts to defeat Nuku-Nuku, which typically results in them painfully getting their butts handed to them, and then Akiko usually punishes them for failing. In the very first OAV, after nearly getting killed when Nuku-Nuku pulverizes the Powered Armor and combat VTOL they fought her in, Akiko then blames the destruction of those very expensive pieces of tech on the two of them, despite having ordered them to use them in the first place without her grandfather's permission. In the 5th OAV, they're shown to be living in poverty, as Akiko has docked their pay and increased their working hours massively to cover for all the stuff that they've gotten wrecked in failed battles against Nuku-Nuku — and then, for added insult, she orders them to stay away from Nuku-Nuku when she takes a job at a restaurant Akiko owns because she's making a big profit off of her presence. When they ignore her and seek revenge against Nuku-Nuku on their own initiative, they get beaten up by some nerds with a crush on Nuku-Nuku, then get beaten up, stuffed in a trashcan and rolled into a canal by the restaurant owner for trying to sabotage Nuku-Nuku, and then finally, they earn Akiko's full-blown wrath when she learns they not only disobeyed her, they destroyed the restaurant whilst doing so. | |

No Guy Wants an Amazon: Invoked in the 5th OAV, when Arisa and Kyouko become exasperated at how a "bimbo" like Nuku-Nuku catches so much attention and they, being "strong and intelligent" are ignored. Subverted in that it's not their "strength and intelligence" that chases off men, so much as their stupidity and impulsive violence. | |

Yamagata-sensei, Nuku-Nuku's classroom teacher in the TV article, similarly cops a lot of slapstick violence and comedic misfortune due to having the bad luck of trying to teach a class with a super-powered gynoid in it who's being actively hunted by a crazy corporation. | |

The Scream | |
All-Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku / int_6cc2137b | comment |
The Scream: Towards the climax of the 3rd OAV, Akiko realizes she has been duped by Kyusaku when she agreed to let him and Ryunosuke move back in, provided she does all the "motherly duties" like cooking and cleaning — as a letter from one of her underlings points out, this means she has no more time with her son than when they were separated, because she's so busy. She promptly lets out a scream of rage and horror that can be heard all across the massive estate, before she dives into the Golem 2000 and tries to hunt Kyusaku down. | |

Full-Conversion Cyborg | |
All-Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku / int_6cd2fb82 | comment |
Full-Conversion Cyborg: Nuku-Nuku is depicted as a cat's brain (and possibly some of its nervous system) that has been installed into a completely mechanical Robot Girl body. It's implied even some of her brain is actually cybernetic, which would explain how she's able to function with a human-level of cognizance. | |

Punny Name | |
All-Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku / int_6d7026fa | comment |
Punny Name: Nuku-Nuku's name is a both a pun related to her serial number (NK-1124) and her "civilian" name Atsuko. "Nukunuku" means something similar to "Warm and Cozy", while "Atsuko" is "Hot Girl". Also rather ironic considering that Nuku-Nuku, being a gynoid, doesn't even register excessive temperatures and has to have the fact that something is hot pointed out to her by Kyusaku. | |

Completely averted by Akiko, Arisa, and Kyouko in Dash. They simply work at the company and none of them are in any way depicted as villainous, though all three do at one point or another cross paths with Nuku Nuku in her alternate identity without ever putting it together that she and the 'androbot' they're trying to find are the same person despite having the exact same body type and hair style as well as hair color. Hell, Akiko lives with her! | |

Calling Your Attacks | |
All-Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku / int_71bd62b9 | comment |
Calling Your Attacks: Being a light-hearted action-comedy from the 90s, characters will sometimes call out their attacks whilst trying to be dramatic. This only appears one time in the OAV, when Akiko shout's "Mother's Love Missile!" whilst firing missiles at Nuku-Nuku. But in the TV continuity, Nuku-Nuku likes to do this herself, shouting things like "Nuku-Nuku Punch!" and "Nuku-Nuki Kick!" when she makes her attacks. | |

Bullying a Dragon: Arisa and Kyouko in OAV #5, after having had their asses repeatedly kicked by Nuku-Nuku and directly ordered to leave her alone whilst she's working at a restaurant owned by Akiko, decide to seek revenge by first humiliating her, then trying to get her fired, and then finally by just shooting up the place. It goes about as well as all the other times they fought her. | |

Discontinuity Nod: The first episode opens with Kyusaku expositing dramatically about the new backstory. Then, Ryunosuke pops up holding tapes from the series' two previous incarnations, sighing "That's not the way I remember it happening... but, whatever." Even more funny... The design she uses and concept that she's describing are for Nuku Nuku DASH! | |

This series spoofs several popular anime, such as when Harmless Villain Hell Mishima decides to hold a singing contest after seeing a rather transparent knockoff of Basara Nekki on TV and being inspired. Nuku-Nuku takes off to school every morning on her bike while yelling "SCRAMBLE DASH!". Another instance is Kyusaku's high school invention, the Geta Robo (which forms from his geta, japanese sandals). | |

Quirky Household: The Mishima mansion when Nuku, Kyusaku, and Ryunosuke go to live there for a short period in the third episode. It's an enormous, palatial estate hiding all kinds of hidden techno-gadgetry, like hidden doors and a small army of robots, and so big that Kyusaku is able to set up a fascimile of a traditional middle-class Japanese dining room inside one of the room whilst barely taking up a tenth of the space. As for the quirky, the family consists of the elderly Mr. Mishima, who thinks playing "shoot-em-up" with real combat robots is a good way to bond with his great-grandson; eccentric heiress Akiko, Mad Scientist Kyusaku, Only Sane Man Ryunosuke, and hyper-active cat-brained gynoid Nuku-Nuku. | |

Dumb Muscle: Nuku-Nuku has Super-Strength to the point she can throw cars around as if they were golfballs, but is generally portrayed as The Ditz — incredibly sweet, but also very stupid. It's justified in that the core of her processor is a cat's brain, and even with the programming to uplift her to full sapience, she's still basically a young child in the body of a super-strong teenager. Eimi Yoshikawa is strong enough to fight on equal footing with Nuku-Nuku, but is even dumber than she is. When she first appears, she actually comes off as even more socially inept than Nuku-Nuku. Then comes the grand reveal at the episode's end that after she decided she wanted to steal Nuku-Nuku's body for herself... she never figured out how to actually pull it off, she just ran off immediately intent on catching her precursor. | |

All-Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku / int_ad5283e1 | comment |
Robot Girl: A feature of every incarnation of the series is the presence of robots designed to look like cute teenage girls. Nuku-Nuku is, of course, the iconic example. She's technically a Cyborg, in that she has a cat's brain integrated into her body somehow (presumably part of her processor), but the bulk of her body is mechanical and designed to look like a cute human 16-year-old. The DASH continuity has an entire line of NK-series gynoids, all built to resemble beautiful busty young girls. Nuku-Nukue even has a "sister" called Rei-Rei. The OAV has Eimi Yoshikawa, a gynoid called the SNK-98 created by a scientist in the image of his dead granddaughter. | |

Biting the Handkerchief | |
All-Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku / int_b30d7433 | comment |
Biting the Handkerchief: In the very first OAV, a distressed Akiko can be seen biting into a handkerchief to try and keep from crying in distress as she rewatches a video of her husband's explanation for why he took Ryunosuke and the gynoid body that became Nuku-Nuku and ran away. | |

Too Dumb to Live | |
All-Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku / int_b58b4e3c | comment |
Too Dumb to Live: Arisa and Kyouko are introduced in the 5th OAV with massive pay cuts and overwork to try and recompense Mishima Heavy Industries for all the damage they've caused in their failed fights against Nuku-Nuku. When they discover Nuku-Nuku has a part-time job at a local restaurant owned by MHI and report this to their boss Akiko, she orders them to leave Nuku-Nuku alone, as she's making them a lot of money. They promptly ignore her, try to get Nuku-Nuku fired, and end up shooting up the place in yet another failed attack. Guess what happen when Akiko finds out about them blatantly ignoring her orders and destroying a very profitable business venue in the process? | |

Rich Suitor, Poor Suitor: In their high school days, perpetually broke mad scientist Kyusaku and corporate heir Hell Mishima competed for Akiko's hand with ridiculous robot battles. She ultimately split the difference, marrying Kyusaku and working for Mishima. | |

High-Powered Career Woman: Akiko Natsume is the head of a powerful corporation. She is also estranged from her husband and her son, and is shown to have no idea how to perform basic household tasks. In one episode, she invites them, and Nuku Nuku, to her mansion to try and patch things up. Her effort at preparing a meal involves her believing that you wash rice with dish soap, and she burned the fish to inedibility. | |

Akiko is downgraded to one of these in TV, as she is seen to still be Happily Married to Kyusaku and acting as a doting mother to Ryunosuke when off the clock. When on the clock, she becomes "Bloody Akiko", completely devoted to fulfilling whatever inane plot her boss has in store that week. | |

Cute Little Fangs: Nuku-Nuku's most overtly cat-like feature is that the tip of one or both upper canines can be seen peeking out of the corner of her mouth whenever she smiles or has her mouth open. It just makes her look cute. | |

Shout-Out | |
All-Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: This series spoofs several popular anime, such as when Harmless Villain Hell Mishima decides to hold a singing contest after seeing a rather transparent knockoff of Basara Nekki on TV and being inspired. Nuku-Nuku takes off to school every morning on her bike while yelling "SCRAMBLE DASH!". Another instance is Kyusaku's high school invention, the Geta Robo (which forms from his geta, japanese sandals). He then later upgrades to Geta Robo G, and fifteen years later, Shin Geta Robo. In the Sports Festival episode, Kyouko and Arisa summon Robo the Giant to capture the mysterious Manekigaoka student who's been interfering with Mishima's schemes. | |

Humongous Mecha: Mishima Heavy Industry's business seems to primarily consist of churning out piloted war-machines, ranging from Mini-Mecha to full-blown massive ones, with the precise models varying depending on the continuity. They range in shape from conventional vehicles like the Poison One combat VTOL jet fighter to tracked, vaguely-humanoid tanks like the Golem 2000 to more abstract machines like the Armored Octopus, a Mini-Mecha resembling an armored sphere on two humanoid legs with multiple Combat Tentacles. | |

In the OAV, rival Robot Girl Eimi Yoshikawa looks like a cute girl, but is actually outfitted with the strength and integrated weaponry to battle Nuku-Nuku on relative ease. | |

Mermaiding Swimsuit: In the second episode of the OAV, Kyusuke hands Nuku Nuku a bikini with additional gadgets and a monofin named the "Mermaid RX-24" that allows Nuku Nuku to swim (being a full body cyborg, she sinks like a stone otherwise). For further comedy, the TV version of the same scene has Kyusuke noticing that the swimsuit's floating devices are battery-powered and he had not charged them before giving them to Nuku Nuku, so she swam in the subsequent action scene purely because the swimsuit acted like a Magic Feather. | |

Running Gag: Pretty much 50% of what happens in any given episode. Chieko says something haughty, followed up by Migiko and Hidariko exclaiming "That's right! That's right! Miss Chieko is exactly right!" Eiichi breaks out into a Filk Song. "Lalalala...~" Rintarou says something cool and aloof; with or without a "Hmph". Futaba goes into full-on Class Representative mode, insisting that everybody follow her orders and panic in an organized manner. Yakumo Oizumi says something to the effect of "FOR SCIENCE!" or "How Unscientific!". Ryunosuke refers to his father as "Mr. Kyusaku" and is corrected. Yamagata-sensei is hilariously injured by something, followed by any given person who saw what happened commenting that "Yamagata-sensei has been in another unfortunate accident". Nuku-Nuku mispronouncing Chieko's family name each time she sees her. | |
