Description
Polly Esther operates as Nyankee #3 in the Secret Ninja Squad while also working as a pizzeria waitress. She stands 130cm tall, weighs 35kg, has blue eyes and purple fur, and wears red and pink armor with a pink and yellow hairband. Removing her helmet reveals short red hair.
She blends fierce independence with a dangerously short temper, often bossing teammates despite lacking formal leadership. Polly Esther demonstrates a relentless work ethic in both pizza delivery and combat, refusing to abandon tasks. Beneath her volatility lies genuine care for friends, though she struggles to express it openly and may react violently to perceived foolishness. She holds fast to a belief in love's power to conquer evil, fueling her combat philosophy.
In battle, she wields love-themed weaponry, initiating fights by disarming opponents with her flute. Her arsenal includes heart-shaped shurikens and the kodachi Bitou Kirakira, featuring heart-adorned handles. This sword's hidden power activates her signature Heart Breaker finisher. Additional techniques are Maiden's Fury Slash and Neko Maneki—a beckoning-cat gesture generating a gravitational field to pull enemies within range of her razor-sharp claws, capable of slicing titanium. She exhibits occasional superhuman strength, intimidating allies and foes. A bell on her collar summons the Rescue Team, and docking with her Goonie Bird (Toritsukkun) enables flight via Extra Topping Pizza Cats Mode.
Outside combat, her musical talent emerges through skilled flute playing and singing, displayed during modeling or recording sessions. These activities reflect attempts to express femininity counter to her aggressive reputation.
Character development shows her developing romantic feelings for teammate Speedy Cerviche. Initially a love-hate dynamic marked by reluctance to show affection, she explicitly acknowledges these feelings in the series finale. Earlier episodes hint at this through competitive interactions and concealed concern for his safety.
Trivia notes include scrapped Wolverine-like claws (later appearing in Comic Bom Bom manga), an English name derived from "polyester," being the only team member shown removing her helmet multiple times, and spin-off comic additions of shorts beneath her work skirt.
