Character: Nono
Series:
Gunbuster 2: DiebusterCharacter Age: Appears to be in her late teens
Canon: The physics-defying, fan-servicing story of Diebuster takes place thousands of years in the future, where humanity has spread itself all across the solar system. Having cities on places like Mars and the moons of Jupiter may be pretty awesome, but it comes with a steep price. Vicious space monsters have made a habit out of attacking humanity, and only a group of elite space pilots called the "Topless" are able to stop them. The heroine of this tale is robot girl and aspiring Topless Nono, who manages to join the Topless organization after attaching herself to a pilot named Lal'c and declaring her to be her new Onee-sama.
At first glance, Nono doesn't really seem like space pilot material. She's enthusiastic, extremely naive about many things (thanks to a small case of amnesia and the fact that she was raised on Mars), kind, and a complete klutz with the uncanny ability to split anything she runs into in half. Still, Nono is very determined, working hard to accomplish her dreams of becoming a space pilot and "Nonoriri" (protector of humanity), and going to Earth to see the birds and blue skies Lal'c's told her all about. How will she do this, you ask? Through effort and guts, of course! Nono may act like an airhead sometimes, but she's actually pretty smart, has a strong sense of morals, and only occasionally blames the laws of gravity for her misfortunes.
Sample post:
Woooow, what a wonderful morning! The perfect beginning for Nono's first day on Earth. The sun is shining, the lake is… also shining! The sky is a perfect blue I could look at forever! The birds are whistling as they work on bursting trees into flames with the power of their minds! Yes, it's just as Nono always imagined it would be--
--eeh?! Nono didn't know birds could set fires! Why would they do that? Could they be hunting? Maybe they're looking for wild tree marshmallows to roast? Or maybe... maybe it's part of a mating ritual! Oh, of course! These birds, unable to attract others with their rainbow beaks alone, must use their powers to impress potential mates with fiery declarations of their love! They show how much they care for each other by burning affectionate statements like "SD ♥ ES" or "GURG HART BRAINZ" or "FOR A GOOD TIME CALL ARMLESS JOE" into things like the bark of trees and the sides of cabins! How romantic!
But now that I know that, I'm a little worried. You see, when I got here last night, I tripped and fell into a whole bunch of trees. Any passionate bird-to-bird messages that may have been burned onto those trees are now broken, split in half and possibly separating many a pair of lovebirds forever! Oh, Nono didn't mean to do such a terrible thing! It was just so dark and there were roots in all the wrong places, like directly in front of Nono's feet. It's almost as if something wanted Nono to trip. Something like... gravity! You may have won this time, gravity, but one day Nono will defeat you and your inescapable pull towards the planet surface.
...wait, what if those trees had nests in them, too? I must find out if they did, so that I can repair any broken homes I may have accidentally created! Using the finest materials I can find, I'll construct new love nests for these heartsick birds and their future families! But Nono will need assistance in order to finish quickly... ah! Excuse me, sir? Will you help Nono? I realize that your head is somewhere else right now, but please listen. Rebuilding all the nests Nono might have destroyed may seem like it would be a difficult job, but with effort and guts, I know you and I can do it!
...while Nono appreciates your help very much, sir, those are not exactly the guts Nono was talking about. Please put those away.
Voting goes hur.
