| Information |
Nuko (ヌコ, translated to Cut or Soft in some subtitles) is a mysterious white creature that Chito and Yuuri pick up on during their journey (episode 10). After reuniting with the rest of its kind, known as Eringi at a nuclear submarine, it departs with them, albeit somewhat reluctant to leave the girls' company.
Appearance[]
It has an elongated body with four small limbs. It can shape-shift to activate mechanisms, bypass electrical locks, or run computer programs, and has a habit of eating bullets and bombs. It communicates via radio signals and is unable to talk if there is no receiver nearby.
Trivia[]
- Nuko appears, along with Chito and Yuuri, in Tsukumizu's next manga Shimeji Simulation.
- In Shimeji Simulation, it seems to be a normal cat, displaying a tail and ears.
- Nuko's name is derived from neko (猫), the Japanese word for "cat", so to preserve the pun, Amazon's subtitles for the anime refer to Nuko as "Cut", while Yen Press' translation of the manga calls the creature "Ket".
- Nuko expresses itself by saying "Nui" in Japanese. This was translated in "Muni" in the French edition of Girls' Last Tour, probably to reference Nuko eating ammunition.
