Description:
This zany, over-the-top OAV from 1992 set a pattern for numerous anime properties. Elementary school student Ryunosuke is unhappy about his parents' divorce. His father is a nutty inventor, his mother is the president of Mishima Heavy Industries, and their quarrels achieve levels of destruction that eclipse Project A-Ko. Ryu's father creates Nuku Nuku by transplanting the brain of a kitten into the body of his NK 1124 android, producing a well-intentioned but dangerously maladroit supergirl. Although Nuku Nuku tries hard to please everyone, she doesn't demean herself, the way the title character does in Steel Angel Kurumi. At one point, Ryu wants his parents to live together, so Nuku Nuku sets up a little fake apartment for them--in one room of the vast Mishima mansion. The six episodes are all slapstick and silliness, but curiously endearing. (Rated 12 and older: brief nudity and risqué humor, cartoon violence, tobacco use) --Charles Solomon
