Nikuman
Sayoko's older brother who has an unhealthy obsession with nikuman
Character information
Nikuman... I just thought he was a really funny concept heehee. When I first drew the alien siblings Nikuman was the younger brother who was still in middle school, but over time he became more mature and stoic leading to me making him the older one. Maybe he was originally like a Tomoki Kuroki or Coco to Sayoko? (You can see the Tsuritama inspiration ^^;) He's the only one who listens to Upapa, but most of the time he's just in their small spaceship playing games and eating snacks. Fun fact, how they got their names was once he realized they would be stuck on Earth, he and Sayoko chose names they thought would help them fit in. He chose Nikuman because he loves the taste of them too much. Perhaps that makes him more of an alien since it's not a normal name heehee, but then again his real name is completely unintelligable.

Once realizing they were now stuck on earth after crashing into an empty lot behind an apartment complex, the first thing Nikuman decided to do was go back inside their ship and sleep. One cat punch later via Upapa, Sayoko dragged him out to explore Shibuya as they just arrived in Tokyo and never got a chance to look around. Immediately, the scent of a nikuman shop drew his attention and he ate so many the owner wanted to put his picture and record on the wall, to which he replied with "I am Nikuman." He would eventually fall in love with Otaku culture and is quite popular streaming games due to his adorable appearance and Chobits-esque ears. Despite his stoicism and preference for playing games and eating snacks, he really cares for his little sister, and is considering joining her on her adventures around Tokyo, except Shinjuku at night (it's a long story).
