Nene Romanova is a fictional character from the Japanese anime series Bubblegum Crisis and its spin offs. She is a member of the Knight Sabers vigilante team, acting as technical conductor and hacker, and also an employee of the AD Police, functioning as the Knight Saber's mole in the ADP world. In both versions she is short, petite and characterized as the least physically durable of the four Knight Sabers, although her hair is different in both versions, but she retains eyes that are predominantly green but change from regular green to blue green infrequently. Her hard suit's primary weapon are the rail guns attached to the forearms which, depending on the series, fire either bullets or electrically charged sticks. ORIGINAL SERIES In the original series, a red haired Nene apparently worked several different jobs in the AD Police when not working with the Knight Sabers. Outside of her skills as a computer hacker, she often appeared bubbly, naive, and blissfully inept with real world logic. She was often teased by the other girls for not being more physically durable, but her intelligence with computers often carried her through. Leon McNichol often teased her as well, pretending to either hit on her or blackmailing her to do him a favor. There were slight implications of something going on between her and Sylia's brother, Mackey Stingray . 2040 SERIES A blonde haired Nene works as a computer dispatcher for the AD Police. Cocky and arrogant, she is even more proficient with computers and hacking in this series than in the original, and unlike the original version, who tended to keep the sidelines in a fight, this Nene is also very aggressive and determined to get in on the action. She also loved to pester Leon McNichol in the same manner that a little sister would, which he barely tolerated because he occasionally needs favors from her. When she learns that Leon has a thing for her teammate Priss, she decides to play match maker, but Sylia loudly objects and threatens to fire Nene from the team if she doesn't take things more seriously. This was a low blow to Nene's pride, but she managed to secure her position on the team by slaying a giant boomer eating monstrosity that almost ate her teammates. Nene also attaches herself to Linna as a surrogate little sister with a surrogate big sister, continuing to grow beyond her strictly comic relief role, and her relationship with Mackey is also explored further. |
