Nukko-pan 4-koma Manga Episode 21: "Nice to meet you, Anpan-Nukko"

One day at the bakery.

On the shelf where freshly baked bread is lined up, Strawberry Nukko spotted a suspicious shadow.

"Eeeek!!!"

At the sudden scream, the original Nukko-pan and Bagel Nukko rush over in a panic.

"What's wrong, nya!?"

"Is there an incident, nya!?"

Then, the black shadow in the back of the bread shelf starts wiggling...

"There's a ghost on the bread shelf!!"

It moved again!

All three of them,

"Yikes!!!"

It's the biggest panic since the bakery opened.

However, when the shadow slowly poked its head out—

"You guys were surprised, huh?♪"

To everyone's surprise, it wasn't a ghost, but a new friend.

Its name is...

Anpan-Nukko!

"I'm not a ghost, you know!♪"

"Nice to meet you~♪"

"......I'm Anpan-Nukko, nya~♪"

The original Nukko-pan and Bagel-Nukko were both surprised by this.

"It talked, nya!"

"The ghost talked, nya!"

No, like I said, it's not a ghost.

It's just a newcomer.

And what was even more shocking was a single word from the baker.

"It's not a ghost."

"It's a new product."

Original & Bagel & Strawberry

"A new product!?"

Anpan-Nukko

"Don't talk about me like I'm bread~♪"

......Well, since it's Anpan-Nukko, maybe it is half bread after all.

And so, after a slightly scary and slightly lively encounter,

the bakery had a new family member added to it🐾🥐✨

💭A word from this episode

What's scarier than a ghost,
