Movie
Description
Nene Sakurada is a five-year-old girl attending Futaba Kindergarten's Sunflower Class as one of Shin-chan's classmates and friends. She actively participates in activities with the Kasukabe Defense Organization.
Nene displays a bossy and dramatic personality, frequently insisting on playing "real omamagoto" where she assigns family roles to friends, always casting herself as the mother. These games often feature divorces and arguments. She typically designates Masao as her unsuccessful salaryman husband, though she occasionally assigns Shin-chan to the role when Masao is unavailable. She reacts with visible frustration when boys show preference for her rival, Ai Suotome.
Though Nene styles herself as sweet, she inherited her mother's volatile temper. When angered, she vents frustration by hitting a stuffed bunny rabbit, substituting Masao as the target if the bunny is absent. Witnessing her mother's erratic behavior triggers Nene's shriek of "you're not my usual mom!"—a reaction mirrored by her father.
Nene cares deeply for Shin-chan, becoming visibly upset upon learning of his potential move to Mexico in one storyline. She considers him her closest friend despite frequently scolding his behavior, standing among the few characters who can control him. Their dynamic includes mutual protection: Nene fights girls showing interest in Shin-chan, while he and Motohisa physically compete for her attention.
Her friendships within the group are complex. Masao serves as her second-closest friend and frequent activity partner, though she non-maliciously bullies him alongside Shin-chan. She drags the serious-minded Kazama into her games, causing him discomfort, yet displays jealousy when other girls interact with him, hinting at a minor crush. With Bo, she shares a supportive bond marked by mutual understanding.
Nene owns multiple pet cats and enjoys watching *Magical Girl Moe-P*. Her stuffed bunny exhibits supernatural traits in certain episodes, coming alive during red moons to seek revenge for its mistreatment—a trait tied to its origin involving a child laborer in a sweatshop.
In the movie *Arashi o Yobu Utau Ketsu dake Bakudan!*, Nene appears as a minor character.
