OVA
Description
Blanc, alias White Heart, functions as the Console Patron Unit (CPU) of Lowee, embodying Nintendo's Wii and Wii U. Her human form manifests as a petite girl standing 144 cm tall with sandy-brown hair and blue-grey eyes. She consistently wears a distinctive white cap featuring light blue ruffles and gold-brown accents, a white fur-lined jacket over a brown-lined dress, a light blue choker, and blue sandals. Her stature frequently causes others to misjudge her age, provoking her volatile temper. Transforming into her Hard Drive Divinity (HDD) state, White Heart, she grows slightly taller (146 cm), gains light blue hair with extended side locks, crimson eyes, and dons a white-and-blue armored bodysuit with detached sleeves. Her NEXT form, reflecting the Wii U, presents dark blue pigtails secured by silver balls, orangish-red eyes, a light blue and black bodysuit, large wings, and a hat displaying the Lowee insignia.
Personality-wise, Blanc exhibits quiet, introverted, and emotionally reserved traits, sometimes perceived as lifeless. She finds solace in reading and writing, harboring a passionate aspiration to become an author, though her lack of skill is a truth others deliberately withhold. This calm facade masks intense fury, especially ignited by remarks about her small bust size or comparisons to Vert (Leanbox's CPU, representing Xbox). She often explodes into violent, profanity-laden tirades, threatening or attacking those who offend her. Her HDD and NEXT forms amplify this aggression, enhancing her assertiveness and combativeness. Despite her anger, she possesses deep care for her younger sisters, Rom and Ram, though their mischievous actions exhaust her and heighten her stress. She fears inadequacy as their guardian and sometimes struggles to convey affection. Her relationships with fellow CPUs fluctuate: she sustains a jealous rivalry with Vert and Neptune (Planeptune's CPU) but respects Nepgear (Neptune's sister) for her sensibility and mutual literary passion.
Throughout the series, Blanc's character evolves amid significant conflicts. During the Console War, she conspired with Noire and Vert to exile Neptune, judging her overconfident. Initial encounters with Neptune's group saw Blanc dismiss them rudely before confronting them in HDD form, retreating after defeat. Events in *mk2* heightened her irritability due to Rom and Ram's antics, yet she grew closer to other CPUs, particularly Neptune, and bonded with Nepgear over shared babysitting. In *Victory*, diminished shares and power rendered her antagonistic; a clash with Noire reduced her to tears, though reconciliation followed after reclaiming Lowee. She starred in *MegaTagmension Blanc + Neptune VS Zombies* as a film director co-creating a zombie movie with Neptune, highlighting her creative drive. Spin-offs like *Cyberdimension Neptunia: 4 Goddesses Online* feature her testing an MMORPG as a priest-class character, while *Neptunia x SENRAN KAGURA: Ninja Wars* shows her mastering "Compa Style" combat in Heartland.
Blanc employs hammers in human form and axes or mauls in HDD form. Her attacks leverage ice-elemental and physical force, including "Tanzerine Trombe" (spinning slams), "Gefahrlichtern" (ice energy balls), and "Zerstorung" (heavy strikes). Her NEXT form executes "Blaster Controller," launching ice spikes before discharging an energy beam. Defensively, her high durability mirrors Nintendo hardware's ruggedness ("Nintendium"). She depends on Share Energy—faith from Lowee's populace—to fuel her powers and immortality; exposure to Anti Energy severs this link, threatening her existence. Processor Units augment her combat abilities within HDD and NEXT forms.
Trivia notes her 1st place ranking in a poll for most-desired spin-off protagonist and 7th in general popularity. The "Green Dot" on her cap nods to Mario's 1-Up Mushroom, and she favors tangerines. Design elements include a scrapped hair-bow concept (later an accessory) and a bust size increase exclusive to her NEXT transition. She expresses admiration for Falcom (a developer associated with Nintendo systems) and claims awareness of Rom and Ram's "Eternal Force Blizzard" spell.
