Nene Sakurada, a spirited five-year-old in Futaba Kindergarten’s Sunflower Class, is Shinnosuke Nohara’s assertive classmate and occasional partner in mischief. Her domineering flair shines in games of “real omamagoto,” where she commandeers the mother role, casting peers like Shinnosuke or Masao Sato as reluctant husbands entangled in mock marital spats or dramatic “divorces.” These theatrics often force classmates into unwelcome roles, sparking playful friction.  
Inheriting her mother’s fiery temperament, Nene vents frustration by smacking a stuffed bunny or, in its absence, redirecting irritation toward Masao. Her rivalry with Ai Suotome ignites when boys favor Ai, prompting Nene to fiercely compete for Shinnosuke’s attention.  
Though prone to bossiness, her bonds reveal complexity. She shares a loyal camaraderie with Shinnosuke, inviting him on family trips and panicking at the thought of his departure. Masao endures her whims as a frequent target of teary-making teasing, while clashes with the stoic Kazama settle into grudging coexistence.  
Films expand her role: kidnapped by Pig’s Hoof in *Blitzkrieg! Pig's Hoof's Secret Mission*, she navigates chaos with trademark boldness. *My Moving Story! Cactus Large Attack!* peels back her bravado, exposing vulnerability when Shinnosuke considers moving away.  
At home, her father Naegi mirrors her melodrama, echoing her exclamations of “you’re not my usual mom!” with his own spousal theatrics. This familial echo underscores her learned yet innate dominance.  
Her world revolves around doting on cats, idolizing *Magical Girl Moe-P*, and collaborating with the Kasukabe Defense Organization, where her imagination fuels lighthearted missions, cementing her as a linchpin of her peer group’s adventures.
