Description
Saru no Momo serves as a guardian angel, appearing as a young girl reincarnated from a squirrel monkey once owned by Gorō Mutsumi. Born on December 1, she possesses a shy, delicate, and sensitive nature, often expressing herself through polite manners and a quiet demeanor. A noted crybaby, she avoids conflict and prioritizes others' happiness, yet maintains a profound fear of electricity and technology stemming from trauma experienced during her death.
Her past life unfolded in a pet shop where Gorō worked part-time. A young girl regularly visited to play with her, but the girl's parents eventually forbade further contact. Lonely, the monkey escaped during a rainstorm to find the girl, climbing an electrical pole and dying by electrocution. This event instilled persistent electrophobia and technophobia.
Initially manifesting alongside other angels to protect Gorō, she harbors deep loyalty towards him, often becoming flustered in his presence and striving to appear her best. Her relationships with fellow angels define much of her existence:
- She shares close bonds with Lulu and Nana, frequently mediating their arguments and sustaining friendships despite occasional friction.
- She regards Yuki as a maternal figure due to Yuki's nurturing attitude toward younger angels.
- During Season 1, she develops a crush on a human boy named Daisuke, blushing uncontrollably around him while remaining uncertain about her romantic feelings versus her devotion to Gorō; this subplot is not revisited later.
Her character evolves across the series:
- In Season 2, she experiences significant maturation, including her first menstruation – an event causing embarrassment and leading to a moment of isolation on a swing.
- Alongside Lulu and Nana, she disguises herself as Gorō’s daughter and sister to conceal their angelic identities, intensifying their familial dynamic.
- She attends elementary school alongside Daisuke and his friends, though her specific interactions with him receive no elaboration.
Physically, she stands 124 cm tall, with slight measurement variations between seasons. Her favorite color is yellow, and she retains animal-like traits such as brown hair symbolizing her monkey origins. While her core phobias persist, her ongoing efforts to support Gorō and her angelic "sisters" demonstrate growth in resilience throughout the series.
