Nana

Details about Nana’s physical appearance are not specified in this text.

Nana shows a warm, caring side, especially towards the parasites, with Code:390 affectionately calling her “Nana-sis.”

She can be strict and dutiful, but emotional triggers reveal a vulnerable, even hysterical side that hints at a troubled past.

Her demeanor contrasts strongly with her successor, who initially appears cold and mechanical but later becomes kinder.

Nana is not just a supervisor but was once a parasite herself.

She lost her partner in battle and subsequently underwent memory manipulation, assuming the role and codename “Nana.”

Her long-standing relationship with the 13th City Team traces back to their training days in the Garden.

After a breakdown, she is deemed unfit for her position by the APE higher-ups and confined to the Children’s Detention Facility, “Torinos.”

Her codename is passed on to a new individual once she is relieved of her duties.

Despite her adult status, she is not ageless and immortal by nature, but attains such qualities later.

Nana possesses considerable authority as a supervisor overseeing the parasites, responsible for guiding and managing them.

Her experience as a former parasite gives her special insight into the children’s struggles and operations.

She also demonstrates great emotional resilience, ultimately overcoming trauma to support the children in their most difficult moments.

Nana is looked up to by the 13th City Team parasites, particularly Code:390, who gives her the nickname “Nana-sis.”

She shares a close, supportive relationship with Hachi, her fellow supervisor.

Her relationship with the children is genuine, protective, and maternal, setting her apart from many other adults in their world.

After Nana’s breakdown, a new Nana takes over, lacking the care and warmth of her predecessor, but eventually begins to develop genuine kindness.

She stands by Hachi during a critical crisis, resulting in a deeper bond as they decide to watch over humanity together.

Nana’s original status as a parasite who lost her partner shapes much of her character’s emotional journey.

The codename “Nana” is actually a title given to the managerial role, not her real name.

Her past was forcibly erased, but she is still haunted by remnants of those memories.

She is one of the adults who chooses to stand with the children both emotionally and physically, unlike most others.

Specific famous quotes are not provided in the current data.

Supervisor and Confidant

Nana has known the 13th City Team since their Garden days and is beloved by many of the children, filling a sisterly and maternal role.

She originally opposes pairing Hiro with Zero two but reluctantly allows it when Zero two disobeys Headquarters’ orders.

Breaking Point and Replacement

When she discovers that Code:556 has learned about childbirth, she has a psychological breakdown triggered by flashing memories of her own past.

APE decides she is no longer useful and confines her to Torinos, replacing her with a new “Nana”—a less empathetic, more mechanical successor.

Recovery and Return

After the VIRM scout unit is repelled, Nana is seen recovering, now in a wheelchair but mentally present.

Words from Hachi and Dr. Franxx inspire her to find renewed purpose, and she begins to comfort the struggling children and even stands up from her wheelchair.

Resolve and Epilogue

During the climactic battle near Mars, Nana is urged by Hachi to escape after he is injured protecting her.

She refuses to abandon him, convincing him to escape together, and they return safely to Earth.

In the epilogue, Nana and Hachi, now bearing the immortality granted to adults, vow to keep watching over humanity, no matter how long it takes.

The new Nana, initially cold and strictly rule-bound, takes up the supervisory role after Nana’s removal.

Following the Mars battle, this new Nana undergoes a transformation, becoming gentler and offering help to Code:556 and the other children.

She learns to genuinely care for the children, signifying hope for change even among the adults.
