| This OAV series about an experimental battle android with the body of a schoolgirl and the brain of a cat (no, really!) is a well-done piece of lighthearted fluff from the early 90s. Nuku-Nuku spends her time unintentionally charming young men with her good looks and eccentric cat ways, helping her creator and his son around the house, and defending them from a vengeful and moderately unbalanced ex-wife who wants her son back, and uses her position as the President of the corporation that paid for the android research to send heavy firepower (manned by her unfortunate personal assistants) their way. People who like the seiyuu Megumi Hayashibara in her cheerful ditz mode, or newer anime fans who wonder what was popular 'way back then' should give this a watch. | |
| "A heart-warming story of a boy and his cat... and a major military equipment manufacturer!" The brain of a cat gets transferred into a virtually indestructible combat android. Attack hoverplanes, armored combat suits, and a variety of other military equipment are sent to retrieve her. But to Nuku-Nuku, they are all just cat toys. | |
