Nekomimi A and Nekomimi B

Nekomimi A and Nekomimi B are fictional characters from the Unicron Trilogy and Animated continuity families.

Virtual robot catgirl maids. Goddamn it, Japan.

Nekomimi A (ネコミミA, the "brunette") and Nekomimi B (ネコミミB, the "blonde") are (apparently) fictional catgirl characters whose exploits are enjoyed by the Transformers in various corners of the multiverse.

Nekomimis A and B first appear as characters within a video game-cum-virtual battle training simulator used by the Autobots. The duo acted as announcers and referees for a series of tournament fights held between the Autobots at a low point during their war for energon, which included digital clones of the deceased and the previous bodies of characters who had been upgraded, as well as several Decepticons, who hacked into the system in order to join the fun.

Nekomimi B seemed to be infatuated with Hot Shot, calling him "dreamy" twice. Unlike Nekomimi B, Nekomimi A thought Hot Shot was "scrawny" and had her sights set on Galvatron. However, perhaps changing her mind after witnessing Galvatron's brutal takedown of Demolishor and Snow Cat, she joined Nekomimi B in calling Hot Shot "dreamy" near the end of the tournament.

Following Hot Shot and Rodimus's victory by ring-out against Optimus Supreme in the final round, Nekomimi A and Nekomimi B presented the winning team with trophies—shortly before they announced that Hot Shot and Rodimus would now take on the "special guest fighter", a pint-sized virtual incarnation of Unicron. As this last battle commenced, the two announcers wished the audience goodbye. Distribution

Some time after the tournament, Six Shot was seen reading a humorous, Transformer-sized comic book featuring the two of them. Galvatron Terror

In this universe, the Nekomimis appear to be "Hello Kitty"-style mascots called "Hello Nekomimi Pop-Star", appearing as illustrations on notebook paper used by Sari Sumdac to recount the events of the Autobots' second clash with the Headmaster The Return of the Headmaster and her own battle with the Constructicons.

Notes

• Though they were not named in either the Energon cartoon or the original Japanese dialogue, the Japanese ending credits to the episode identified them with the designations used in this article. "Nekomimi" is roughly Japanese for "kitty ears", and is a term generally applied in Japan to "catgirls".
