Comprehensive featured article with full abilities, lore, personality, Esper Cycle role, affiliations, and trivia
Nanally 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 titles of "Ichi-daime of the Coluccis" and "Rising Star." She was the very first character revealed for the game and has been featured prominently in gameplay trailers and promotional materials since the earliest announcements.
Nanally is a cat-girl who leads the Coluccis gang in Hethereau. Her combat style revolves around electricity-based street fighting, and she is affiliated with the Eibon Antique Shop. Her birthday is August 20. Her English voice actress is Brittany Lauda.
Nanally has a distinctive cat-girl design with prominent cat ears and a tail. Her appearance blends street fashion with a gang leader aesthetic that reflects her role as head of the Coluccis. She sports a confident, somewhat mischievous expression that matches her energetic personality. Her design incorporates electric-themed visual motifs, with sparks and crackling energy effects appearing during combat animations. As an Esper, Nanally's physical traits hint at her supernatural nature, with her feline features being tied to her Anima element affinity rather than being purely cosmetic.
Nanally is brash, confident, and fiercely loyal to her gang. As the Ichi-daime (first generation leader) of the Coluccis, she carries the weight of leadership with a casual swagger that belies her sharp tactical mind. 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 in 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. She can be impulsive and has a temper, but she channels that aggression effectively in combat against Anomalies.
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 quickly close the distance to enemies.
Nanally performs a rapid chain of claw strikes infused with electric energy. Her attack animations are fluid and aggressive, reflecting her street-fighting background. Each successive hit in the combo builds up electrical charge on the target, which can be detonated by her skill or ultimate for additional Anima damage.
Nanally shoots electric sparks from her fingertips in a rapid-fire barrage. This is the attack accompanied by her signature "Pew, pew, pew!" voice line. The sparks deal Anima damage and apply an electric mark to targets hit. The skill has a relatively short cooldown, encouraging frequent use to maintain pressure and build toward her ultimate.
Nanally's ultimate ability is officially called the Call to Coluccis Ultimate Death Shadow Nether Punch. Despite the over-the-top name, the ability is devastating in practice. When activated, Nanally summons her "Underboss" ally, a powerful entity that fights alongside her. The ultimate incapacitates all enemies in the area, making it one of the strongest crowd-control ultimates in the game. The Underboss summon transforms the battlefield, allowing Nanally to deliver a barrage of electrically-charged attacks while enemies are unable to act.
Nanally's Quick Time Event attack triggers during character swap sequences. She dashes in with an electrified claw swipe that deals burst Anima damage and applies electric marks to all enemies caught in the arc.
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. Building a team around Nanally means pairing her with characters whose elements create favorable reactions with Anima. Her high damage output and crowd-control ultimate make her an excellent anchor for team compositions that need a strong frontline DPS.
In the combat system, Nanally benefits from being on the field as much as possible due to her combo-reliant playstyle. Players who master her attack chains and weave in Electric Spark usage between combos can maintain near-constant DPS uptime. Her ultimate provides a natural window for teammates to swap in and capitalize on the incapacitated enemies.
Nanally is the founder and leader of the Coluccis, a gang operating within Hethereau. The title "Ichi-daime" (meaning "first generation" in Japanese) indicates that she founded the group herself rather than inheriting leadership. The Coluccis occupy a unique space in Hethereau's power structure, operating independently from both the Bureau of Anomaly Control and other established factions.
Despite leading a gang, Nanally maintains an affiliation with the Eibon Antique Shop, the mysterious establishment that serves as a hub for Appraiser activities. This dual affiliation suggests that Nanally operates across both the official and underground sides of Hethereau's Anomaly response network. Her connection to Eibon may explain how she became aware of supernatural threats and why the Coluccis are involved in Anomaly-related activities beyond simple gang business.

Her ultimate's full name, "Call to Coluccis Ultimate Death Shadow Nether Punch," is intentionally over-the-top and reflects her dramatic personality.
