Nanally

Overview

Nanally Coluccis is an S-rank playable character in Neverness to Everness. Her element is Anima, one of the six attributes in the Esper Cycle, and she fights with Fangs and Claws as her weapon type. Nanally holds the title of "Ichi-daime of the Coluccis" and is recognized as a Rising Star Esper in Hethereau. Her birthday is August 20. Her English voice actress is Brittany Lauda.

Nanally is a cat-girl who leads the Coluccis family, a gang operating in the Bridge District of Hethereau. She is the star attraction of the Eibon Antique Shop and the most renowned family head in the Bridge District. Her combat style revolves around electricity-infused street fighting, and she possesses the unique ability to walk on any surface while ignoring gravity during her empowered state. Nanally was the very first character revealed for the game and has been featured prominently in gameplay trailers and promotional materials since the earliest announcements.

Appearance

Nanally has a distinctive cat-girl design with prominent cat ears, a tail, and pointed feline teeth. Her appearance blends street fashion with a gang leader aesthetic that reflects her role as head of the Coluccis. She sports a confident, energetic expression that matches her personality. Her design incorporates electric-themed visual motifs, with sparks and crackling Anima energy appearing during combat animations. As an Esper, Nanally's feline features are tied to her supernatural nature and Anima element affinity.

Personality

According to her official introduction, Nanally is described as "steadfast and dignified, generous and kind, wise and calm." As the Ichi-daime (first generation leader) of the Coluccis, she carries the weight of leadership with confident swagger. She is fiercely loyal to her gang and those under her protection at the Eibon Antique Shop. She has a playful side that surfaces during combat, particularly when she fires electric sparks from her fingertips while gleefully exclaiming "Pew, pew, pew!" This catchphrase has become one of the most recognizable character moments from early gameplay footage.

Despite her gang leader persona, Nanally is not a villain. The Coluccis operate in a morally gray area within Hethereau's social landscape, and Nanally's leadership style leans toward protecting her people rather than pursuing criminal enterprise. She is direct in her communication, dislikes pretense, and respects strength and authenticity in others.

Abilities and Combat Kit

Nanally is a melee DPS character whose kit centers on electricity-based street fighting. Her Fangs and Claws weapon type gives her a fast, aggressive combat style that combines feral claw strikes with electric discharges. She excels at close-range engagements and can enter a powerful empowered state that increases her critical damage and allows gravity-defying movement.

Colucci Secret Skill (Basic Attack)

Nanally bares her fangs and brandishes her claws, performing up to 5 consecutive attacks. This is described as a secret combat technique passed down in the Coluccis family, though it clearly incorporates many street fighting elements from Hethereau. The attack chain also includes variant attacks: an aimed attack and a plunging attack from elevation.

Colucci Howling Technique (Elemental Skill)

Nanally deals 5 instances of Anima DMG to an area around her while wrapping herself in Anima Esper Ability and entering Ichi-daime's Authority. This empowered state increases Nanally's Critical Hit Damage and, notably, allows her to walk on any surface while ignoring gravity for 12 seconds. The gravity-defying movement lets her run up walls and across ceilings, making her extremely mobile during the Authority window. The effect expires after 12 seconds or when Nanally leaves the battlefield.

While in Ichi-daime's Authority, Nanally will follow up on teammates' Esper Cycle Damage in Unison, dealing Anima Damage to a single target. This makes her an active participant in team reactions even beyond her direct attacks.

Colucci Ultimate Technique (Ultimate)

Nanally's ultimate ability deals 7 instances of Anima DMG to an area and summons her Underboss. While on the battlefield, Underboss will continue to follow up in Unison, dealing Anima DMG to a single target. This companion entity provides sustained supplemental damage that persists after the initial burst. The ultimate's in-universe name is the "Coluccis Ultimate Death Shadow Nether Punch" an intentionally over-the-top name that reflects Nanally's dramatic personality.

Justice from Above (QTE)

Nanally's Quick Time Event attack triggers during character swap sequences. She delivers a roundhouse kick that deals Anima DMG to an area around her, providing burst damage on entry.

Passive Abilities

• More Than Passionate Spawns additional Lebenstamm creatures with Blossom Enhancement. Up to 6 Lebenstamms can be present on the field at once.

• Fair Duel While in Ichi-daime's Authority, Nanally follows up on teammates' Esper Cycle Damage in Unison, dealing Anima Damage to a single target.

Esper Cycle Role

As an Anima element character, Nanally participates in the Esper Cycle reaction system. Anima interacts with adjacent elements on the cycle wheel to produce duo reactions that amplify damage or apply special status effects. Her Ichi-daime's Authority passive that follows up on teammates' Esper Cycle Damage makes her especially synergistic in team compositions built around triggering reactions. Her high critical damage output during Authority combined with the Underboss summon from her ultimate make her an excellent anchor for teams that need sustained frontline DPS.

In the combat system, Nanally benefits from being on the field as much as possible due to her combo-reliant playstyle and the gravity-defying mobility of Authority. Players who master her 5-hit attack chain and weave in Colucci Howling Technique usage can maintain near-constant DPS uptime while moving freely across surfaces to reposition against enemies.

Lore and Background

Nanally is the founder and leader of the Coluccis family, operating within the Bridge District of Hethereau. The title "Ichi-daime" (meaning "first generation" in Japanese) indicates that she founded the group herself rather than inheriting leadership. She is described as the most renowned family head in the Bridge District.

According to her official profile, Nanally has participated in numerous major Anomaly containment and nullification operations, including notable events such as "Danzaburou's Revenge," the "Fluffy Demon King Showdown," and the "V-class Wrath GR Cloud Crisis." These operations demonstrate that despite her gang affiliation, she is an active and experienced combatant against Anomaly threats.

Nanally maintains a prominent presence at the Eibon Antique Shop, where she is considered the star attraction. This dual affiliation (as both a gang leader and an Eibon-affiliated operative) suggests that Nanally operates across both the official and underground sides of Hethereau's Anomaly response network.
