Nemu: Good morning, Niisan!

Huh… Niisan!? *wakes up*

Nemu: Yes! The other girls aren’t awake yet, so I figured we could have some private time.

Sure… *suddenly notices Nemu is wearing ONLY an apron and thighhighs* !!!!!!

Nemu: You seem surprised, Niisan. You haven’t seen me in my cleaning clothes? *shows off* Well, of course, you always oversleep… *gets angry*

Sorry, Nemu, sorry! Even if in real life I sleep too little if anything!

Nemu: Since you made me angry now you’ll have to make up for it, Niisan…

I don’t get it, but whatever.

Nemu: Thanks! *hands Zettai some cream* Could you please rub this on my butt? It helps keeping it smooth!

And also makes it grow?

Nemu: Stupid Niisan… Just rub! *turns around*

Sure, sure… *obediently rubs the cream on Nemu’s bare ass*

Nemu: Oh, you do a pretty good job… Ow! Did you pinch my butt?

I’m only human!

Nemu: Fine, stay in bed! I’ll go handle housekeeping in my own! *leaves*

Shine on you, crazy diamond. *lies down and thinks on what he’s done* Hmm, just because she’s exposing her body to me that doesn’t turn her into a piece of meat. Even if this is the season of unfairly angry women Nemu has a point, so I’ll go apologize. *goes to the kitchen* Hey… Nemu….

Nemu: Yes? *is whipping up cream as she brooms the floor, only she’s holding the broom between her cheeks*

That… Looks interesting…

Nemu: Look, Niisan, I’m a bit busy here. What did you want?

Oh, uh, wait a second… How was it… Hmmmm…. Hold on… Ah, yes! Sorry for earlier!

Nemu: That’s fine, I overreacted too. *winks* So, are you going to help me?

Actually, I was thinking of writing your blog.



Yeah, like that.

Nemu: That’s not housework… Oh well, do as you wish.

Head

Hair
Nemu has dark brown hair. It’s not very long, barely reaching her shoulders, but it’s really “wide” for some reason. This isn’t helped by her twintails, especially with those huge yellow ribbons! I don’t mind that much actually, the overall result is really cute. In fact every time Da Capo has A NEMU their hair is similar for a reason. Her middle bang is bigger than the rest for a reason, and she also has a cute long ahoge. It gives a nice impression overall!
Grade: B

Eyes
Green eyes. Well, they aren’t blue! It’s not a bad shade anyway, plus they match with the color of her normal clothes. She also has a light tsurime that fits her personality and looks good. Her eyes get more slanted in her “hidden Nemu” side, which helps a little. No glasses at any point, unlike her granddaughter Yume who is A NEMU too. Still, not bad!
Grade: B-

Nemu: Why are you yelling my name out loud sometimes?

All in due time.

Nemu: Well, okay… How weird…

Body

Build
Nemu has a rather normal build. At 155 cm tall she’s just barely in my ideal heights, her 37 kg is fairly normal for anime girls like her and her measurements of 79/53/82 are not curvy but not thin either. This isn’t bad however, while not a DFC her chest is on the modest size and she has a nice thin waist. Her legs aren’t amazing but not the worst and her feet are cute. Overall she looks like you expect a cute imouto character to look, so we’re good.
Grade: B+

Nemu: I’m a lovely nurse as well!

But I like imoutos, not nurses!

Nemu: Really? I heard it’s normally the opposite…

Butt
While nothing special Nemu has an alright butt in some images looks a little better. Noteworthy the fact there are quite a few official images focusing on her ass, maybe not on the level of Mikoto but it’s a noticeable deal! Also her official measurements give her slightly bigger hips than chest, which always helps. Then again most Da Capo girls are bottom-heavy; eat your heart out Key.
Grade: C+

Clothes
Her standard clothes are her school uniform, a rather standard sailor one with a white shirt and a blue miniskirt. Thankfully she makes up for its dullness for wearing some sexy THIGHHIGHS, now that’s more like it! She wears a couple casual dresses that aren’t noteworthy other than some of them being green like her eyes and showing she has a varied fashion sense. In Second Season she wears a white coat as part of her job as a doctor, and in at least the specials a pink nurse costume; too bad I don’t like nurses. Her swimsuit in the mandatory episode is just a bikini. Thankfully official art saves the day once more, as between red one-pieces, cute dresses, wedding dresses, sexy Santa girl, a yellow yukata, naked ribbon and best of all A GYM UNIFORM WITH RED BLOOMERS she hits my preferences really well!
Grade: A-

Mind

Personality
Nemu is a sweet little sister character, and probably one of the most important ones in recent anime history. She’s actually adopted and not Jun’ichi the main guy’s real little sister, but she is at least a distant relative, probably not his father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate. Nemu is a bit of a tsundere, but not too bad overall, even if she can get jealous at other girls, a side nicknamed “Underside Nemu” by Jun’ichi. He also names her “Deadly Chef” because like most tsunderes she can’t cook. As the main heroine she wins, but even then she takes two years off to become a doctor, even if she also acts as the school nurse. Also her winning is so canon Da Capo II has as main cast her granddaughters and their adoptive brother. She likes watching TV and cucumber sandwiches, and oddly doesn’t like hamburger steak even tho most people in anime love it. Overall she’s a pretty good heroine, maybe not the best ever but still a fairly likable character. In fact both DC II and DC III have girls clearly based in her design and personality which I call A NEMU in reference to mecha fans calling the characters based on Char A CHAR. I’m not sure if other games have A NEMU tho.

Sadly, not everything is smiles and sunshine here. Surely you remember this month is for girls I planned to do earlier this year. Kanade went in the dommy girls month and Nagi in the flat girls one. Nemu, however, was in the UNFAIRLY HATED GIRLS one! See, probably as a mixture of not being the fan favorite girl and people’s blind random hate and bias against incest that isn’t really incest like this or cousins, a lot of fans hate Nemu’s guts while heavily fanboying sweet school idol Kotori. And this isn’t just a bunch of disgruntled fanboys that amount to nothing, no: this is bad enough Circus, the makers of the game, made a game called Da Capo I.F. based on Kotori being the MAIN heroine, with one of her possible endings leaving Nemu DEAD. Even worse, that is the ending the anime adaptation is based on, although her death isn’t directly stated. On top of that this basically lead to Kotori overtaking Sakura’s place as the rival main heroine, appearing alongside Nemu in most official pics and even being the other main girl in the P.S.P. OVA, thus leaving Sakura with only Time Paladin Sakura as “her” OVA. And in that topic Nemu is a VILLAIN in T.P. Sakura, although a Team Rocket-esque funny and harmless one. In fact Sakura proves the hypocrisy of the haters, as while a lot of people rage on Nemu for being an incestuous ADOPTED imouto no one cares about Sakura being an incestuous TRUE cousin, even though that’s worse. Of course, the reason is simple: Sakura doesn’t win, Nemu does. In fact now I wonder if Nemu being dead in Da Capo II despite being the canon winner is Circus trying to cater to both fans and haters at once. Himeno from DC III being the only A NEMU not to be a main heroine doesn’t help this either. Come on, at least Sena’s dumb manga didn’t make Yozora die as far I know, that’s just bad. In short, Nemu might not be perfect but she does nothing to deserve this hatred, especially given how many hardships BOTH Da Capo seasons give her to begin with!
Grade: A-

Nemu: Oh… Hum… Thank you, Niisan. *flusters bright red*

It’s just the truth. You deserve better, Nemu!

Nemu: *shakes her ass as to broom much faster*

Libido
First and foremost, Nemu’s love interest is her OLDER BROTHER! Sure, she’s adopted and they’re the same age, but the point is she’s his imouto and is known for that fact. That instantly gives her a good score here. Even better, SHE takes initiative and in both the anime and the OVA she is the one to declare her love to Jun’ichi and even kisses him! They even get married at the end of DC Second Season, which is beautiful. Also, while she does get angry with him sometimes she’s more likely to lash at OTHER girls, so her tsundere-ness is not a big hurdle. The only problem with Nemu would be her H-scenes are, to my knowledge, utterly generic stuff and even that can be forgiven since she’s from an old-ish eroge. But seriously, Nemu is amazing!
Grade: A-

Age
She seems to be at the second year of high school, so 16-17. Second season is set 2 years later, so 18-19 for that tho she looks the same. For some reason I don’t mind this case as much as other, so she still scores well! That said it’s a bit disappointed she has the exact same age than her brother, down to sharing a birthday; and people thought a certain dancer and her exhibitionist younger brother were bad!
Grade: B

Nemu: Those “people” are “one person” as far I know.

Voice
Sakura Nogawa’s voice is really cute and sweet, fitting Nemu perfectly both when she’s adorable and when she gets a bit tsundere, probably one of my fav roles of her. She’s had other VAs in the games or in Time Paladin Sakura, but I associate her most with Miss Nogawa for a reason! As a minor and negative note, Nemu uses the somewhat neutral “Niisan” to refer to her brother instead of the typical cute “Oniichan” or other forms I like even more; it’s not very important and it makes her more unique, but still.
Grade: B+

Total: 77 (B)

Nemu: Hey, that’s much less than Kanade! Unfair!

Hey, it’s just how scoring goes… Trust me, I like you more in spite of that.

Nemu: Really?

Yes!

Nemu: Thank you…*hugs Zettai*

Chiaki: *walks in* Sorry for…*notices the scene* bothering you…

No, Chiaki! It’s not what you think!

Nemu: Got any problem with being seen hugged by me?

No, not that!

Nagi: You’re so noisy…. Huh?

Kanade: Good mo- What?

Nemu: Hello, fellow partners in crime. I think I’m on the lead today. *smirks*

Nagi: How you dare! *rushes at Nemu*

Nemu: Let’s operate! *draws a scalpel at Nagi*

Nagi: !! *blocks it with her magical staff*

Kanade: You’re wide open! *tries to tickle Nemu*

Nemu: This hand of mine is burning red! *grabs Kanade’s face to keep her away, making sure to NOT hit her eyes*

Chiaki: Whoa, what happened?

They got competitive, that’s what. They must be suffering from Harem Syndrome.

Chiaki: Harem Syndrome?

Yes, Chiaki Snake. Maybe I’ll make next week’s blog the special one, the break will soothe them down.

Chiaki: You heard Zettai. Look forward next week for a special gift, err, girl!
