Current revision
Yurika Misumaru (御統ユリカ Misumaru Yurika) is a fictional character in the anime and manga series Martian Successor Nadesico.
In the anime series Nadesico, Yurika Misumaru (御統ユリカ) is the rather ditzy Captain of the Nadesico. Her age is 20. Despite her awkwardness, she is actually qualified for the position (scoring optimally on the simulators), unlike most figure-head captains of her day, and her father is an admiral in the UEF (United Earth Forces). She, like Akito Tenkawa (whom she adores) was also born on Mars, but left around 10 years before the war begins in 2295. She has carried a flame for him all this time.
Aside from swooning over Akito, she does occasionally make a good move and the Nadesico benefits, but her swooning can also put the crew in jeopardy as well. Toward the end she begins to become a Gekigangar 3 otaku. Because of Megumi Reinard's involvement with Akito, Yurika and her may be considered enemies. In spite of that, Yurika is a caring and compassionate captain at most times, and treats her crew well.
Akito and she finally do get married at the end of the series, which opens up the door for the movie sequal Martian Successor Nadesico: The Prince of Darkness.
