Mutta Nanba

Mutta Nanba, also known as Mu-chan, is one of the main protagonists from the Space Brothers series.
== Charactah Account ==
Mutta is the elder Nanba brother who was born on October 28, 1993, when Japan lost the Football (Soccer) World Cup preliminaries.
Mutta was fired from his job after headbutting his boss, who insulted his younger brother Nanba Hibito. After some encouragement from his brother and mother, Nanba, deciding to follow his dream to be an astronaut, sent a resume to JAXA. 
While Mutta is generally calm and collective, he is shown to be a competitive brother, always trying to stay ahead of his younger brother in every aspect. He is also a quick learner and can multitask easily. Mutta considers himself inherently unlucky, and therefore prone to all sorts of problems. (Maybe he is; he does seem to encounter more obstacles than average) Nevertheless, he has managed to address each obstacle with his extensive engineering background and out-of-the-box thinking, and as a result gained great respect from his colleagues.

== Trivia ==
* On July 9, 2006. Mutta and Hibito saw a UFO while recording insects and small life in the nearby woods. After having seen the UFO fly away towards the moon, Hibito announced that he would become an astronaut and go to the moon and Mutta announced that he would stay a step ahead of his little brother and go to Mars, that was a promise they made to each other that day.
* While Hibito fulfilled his dream and part of the promise, Mutta was pretending to forget his dream and in the process actually forgot it. After he lost his job, his mother sent his resume to JAXA and Hibito encouraged him to follow his dreams. Mutta decided to go ahead and join the new astronaut selection program after JAXA accepted the application his mother sent.
