Movie
Description
Arale Norimaki, crafted by Senbei Norimaki in Penguin Village, stands as the world's first flawless android. Designed to resemble a young girl, her initial purple hair shifted to brown in the 1997 remake, and her sole physical imperfection requires corrective glasses for nearsightedness. Senbei introduces her interchangeably as his sister or daughter, with villagers overlooking her superhuman displays through casual acceptance.
Her personality radiates naive energy and childlike wonder, pairing high academic intelligence—evidenced by solving complex mathematics—with startlingly absent common sense. Interests span Japanese superhero series like Ultraman, monster films, and the peculiar pastime of prodding feces with sticks. Optimistic and animal-friendly, she frequently intervenes to shield others using her strength, rarely grasping the repercussions. Distinctive speech patterns pepper her dialogue, including "N'cha" (greeting), "Bye'cha" (farewell), "Hoyoyo" (surprise), and "Kiiin" (running exclamation).
Capabilities encompass colossal strength, speed, and resilience. Feats include cleaving Earth with a punch ("Earth Chop"), unleashing energy beams ("N'cha Cannon"), enduring point-blank gunfire, and detaching her head harmlessly. She achieves flight via "Rocket Punch" arm thrusters and wields breath-based attacks. Her pure heart grants access to Goku’s Flying Nimbus cloud.
Key narratives begin with her creation and enrollment at Penguin Village Middle School, where she befriends Akane Kimidori and the Soramame brothers. She later discovers Gatchan, a winged prehistoric hatchling, who integrates into her family. Arale confronts antagonists from bank robbers to alien monarch Nikochan—foiling his Earth-destruction plot when Gatchan consumes his vessel. Dragon Ball crossovers feature her defeating General Blue, repairing Goku’s Dragon Radar alongside Senbei, and battling Goku and Vegeta to standstills in Dragon Ball Super, prompting Vegeta’s refusal to engage "gag manga characters." Future timelines depict her marriage to Obotchaman while maintaining her youthful appearance. During a 1994 summer vacation movie, she encounters a vampire in Penguin Village. Her family expands when Senbei weds teacher Midori Yamabuki, introducing younger brother Turbo Norimaki.
