CANTI
CA
Canti is the blue, television-headed robot that emerges through Naota's N.O. channel and somehow becomes part of the Nandaba household almost immediately afterward.
Outside combat he is strangely gentle and domestic. He wears an apron, runs errands, helps around the house and communicates mostly through body language and whatever appears on his screen.
The dangerous part is what happens when Naota and Atomsk become involved. When Canti absorbs Naota, his body changes, the Atomsk mark appears and he becomes capable of fighting Medical Mechanica machines on an entirely different level.
Mamimi sees something else in him. His winged, halo-like appearance reminds her of Cantido, the Lord of Black Flames from her Fire Starter game, and she begins treating Canti as the god she has been looking for.
Canti sits right in the middle of FLCL's collision between domestic life and cosmic machinery. One minute he is washing dishes. The next he is glowing red and fighting something that came out of a child's forehead.
