View source


N. Villio (エヌ＝ヴィリオ Enu. Virio?),[3] most known as Shrimpy (えびお Ebio?), is a robotic unity made by Unilord and Shy's partner.

Appearance

N. Villio appears to be a small blue and white robot which is just like a segmented shrimp with antennas in its head and four limbs.

Personality

N. Villio is very level-headed and is always trying to help Teru to be the best hero she can be, giving her advice and engaging her in Hero activities such as interacting with the public. It acts much as friend, even as an older, caring relative of hers as it is always with her, encouraging her when she is feeling bad and making everything it can to make Shy feel better about being Japan's Hero. In the anime, it also frequently accompanies Teru to give her emotional support.

Synopsis

Volume 1

N-Villio stands-by

N. Villio stands-by.

After Shy tried to talk to Heartman's public at Himawari Land, N. Villio tries to cheer her up, as she needs to get acquainted to situations like this as Japan's Hero but Shy is not convinced as she utterly believes that she can't do it. Screams coming from outside catches their attention and Shy goes there to investigate. The roller coaster stopped in the middle of the loop and Shy tells N. Villio to stand-by, and it agrees.

Her performance backfires, however, as Shy is blamed for Iko Koishikawa's current status. About a month after this, it tries to cheer her up with a problem in the next prefecture but she can't transform as she doesn't feel secure about herself as a hero. N. Villio silently observes as Spirit suddenly appears and advises her about her life as a hero. She then leaves, leaving them alone. A few days after that, Teru contacts N. Villio as she is about to try and save some people in a fire happening in a building.

When Teru has to deal with a mysterious boy and a monster-looking Iko, N. Villio instructs her through voice, analyzing what was happening and telling her what to do. While Shy fights with Iko, she asks N. Villio to bring them to an open place and it opens a portal, where Shy and Iko pass through. Once there, the hero urges it and N. Villio analyzes Iko's mental energy and establish that it is leaking from a ring on Iko's finger, telling her she needs to take it off. Shy tries to do so, but Iko covers her fingers with black crystals and attack her, making her panic.

N. Villio tries to calm her down, to which Iko starts saying that she couldn't save anyone, and the robot tells Shy to not listen to her due to her current mental state, but Shy denies, saying it is her duty as a hero to listen. Stating she would accept Iko's pain, N. Villio is surprised. Shy is attacked multiple times by her but Shy is ultimately able to take her ring off, so the crystals soon start to disappear slowly. After confirming with her that the problem was solved, N. Villio couldn't detect the one who started all this, but makes a report of the situation to Unilord.

Volume 2

As Teru arrives home from her fight with Stardust, she is approached by N. Villio, who asks her to turn on the television. Despite being startled by its sudden appearance, she does so and N. Villio confirms that what had happened in China was Stigma's work.

One day, Teru comes home from school, hurriedly picking up paper and brush. When N. Villio asks what she was doing, she responds by saying that she would write her heart, but it doesn't quite understand what she means. It watches her write again and again, until she is able to channel her power. As Teru celebrates, however, N. Villio warns her that the paper is burning and helps her put out the fire.

N. Villio contacts Shy after she helped some workers with a tree on the road, telling her that she has been asked to appear on stage again, convincing her to go with a special reward that would be given to her if she accepts. N. Villio accompanies her at the CiviRevo event cosplaying as the companion of the protagonist, Revoron. At the end of it, Shy receives the Blu-rays of the anime and N. Villio watches it with Teru, who becomes a fan as soon as she gives it a chance.

Volume 4

By the end of Shy and Spirit's battle with Tzveta Kooriskaya and Keheheh Kekerakera, N. Villio contacts Shy to tell her that Unilord has asked for reinforcements, specifically that of Stardust and Lady Black. Some time after that, as an aftermath of the battle, however, Teru gets sick and is brought home by Iko. Before falling asleep, Teru asks N. Villio to take her school uniform away, to which it complies. When Shy comes back home after dealing with Tojiko Asuka, N. Villio asks her where she has been, but she doesn't answer it.

Volume 5

N. Villio contacts Unilord as per Teru's request, as she had just discovered that Japan may be the next target of the Amarariruku. The next day, N. Villio hurriedly contacts Shy to inform her that a part of Tokyo has been covered in a mysterious void.

Volume 10

N. Villio is seen watching Nagi Watatsumi's advertisements with Teru. And a few days later, it also watches her new credited film with her.

Trivia

  • "Ebio" (えびお?) means "shrimp", which makes reference to its form.
  • N. Villio likes people close to it, taking care of others and dad jokes.[1]
  • In regards to his character, Tomokazu Sugita commented:
“ I thought it was a talking shrimp, so I tried to change the ending to '~shrimp', but I was told that 'ebio' is 'ebio', so it's not 'shrimp', so I settled on the current form. I hope that Teru's kindness will be conveyed to her, as it is more than just an older brother, father, or teacher. ”

— Tomokazu Sugita[7]
