Regarding the influenes on the character design, I'm told that, in terms of the character art, she resembles a combat gynoid from something called 'Vocaloid'. The name is, at least in my view, a reference to Pinocchio, this being backed up by the wires she uses to control her weapons.

I'm fairly sure, however, the main character thread will be Pinocchio-based. I'm quite sure that, at some point, she's going to ask Ruby to teach her to be 'a real girl'.

I'm morbid enough to think that she's going to get killed eventually and her last words will be something heart-breaking to the effect that, in her last moments, she finally knows what is is to be alive.
