Minerva Mink

Minerva Mink is a character in Warner Bros. animated television series, Animaniacs and one of the main characters in it's 2020 reboot. Minerva Mink is an anthropomorphic mink who is flirted by every male creature who all have a crush on her. Her voice actress is Julie Brown. Minerva has white fur with blonde hair and an enormous blonde tail as well as a pink nose and big black eyes with blue eyeshadow.
==Appearance==
Minerva is an anthropomorphic mink with a curvaceous figure reminiscent of other sex symbols. She has a large blond hair, a red ball gown and barefoot.
==Personality==
Personality-wise and despite her beauty and sexiness, Minerva can best be described as a "gold-digger", so to speak, extremely vain and greedy. She typically was seen using men to do whatever she wanted, showing no interest in them whatsoever. As an example of poetic justice, the short "Meet Minerva" ended with her receiving a taste of her own medicine, as she fawns after a man with similarly exacting standards who didn't seem to find her attractive at all. Although Minerva is snobby, smug, and sees no interest in those who seek her attention, deep down inside, she has a sweet, friendly side to her. If anybody's kind to her, it could be that they'll get the same in return. This is best shown when, toward the end of her debut short, she gives Newt a hug and kiss of genuine affection rather than manipulation, being actually surprised when he reacted in a sexually attracted way even when that wasn't her intent this time. She is shown to have a more friendly dynamic with Newt in the comics following this. 
Minerva starred in the least number of shorts of all the ensemble cast, allegedly on account that the content of her shorts was so overtly sexual that it was decided that it would be inappropriate for the intended predominantly children's audience. For example, on one occasion, Minerva was seen as a shapely, nude silhouette while bathing in a lake. Additionally, many of the zany wild-takes on the part of the male cast members were filled with innuendo. Her second and last solo short, "Moon Over Minerva", was slightly edited for content before broadcast. Some shots of her abundant breasts were considered too voluptuous and erotic for a children's cartoon, and as a result, were air-brushed out. Her full cleavage was intended to resemble a large puff of fur but resulted in what fans tend to refer to as a "uni-boob". Only some shots of her breasts, mostly close-ups, were censored - others were left alone

==Trivia==
*Paul Dini (producer/story editor on many of WBA's DC Comics projects and story editor/writer on Tiny Toon Adventures) was responsible for the initial conception of the character.http://cartoonatics.blogspot.com/2011/08/people-who-made-tiny-toons-and.html?showComment=1314254561345#c2143865518774249692
*Minerva is the only Animaniacs character who never had her own opening theme.
**However in both of her cartoons, she does sing a song that might be considered her theme song called "It's Not Pretty Being Me".
*She is the only featured character to have only 2 solo cartoons, however she will return as a main character in the 2020 revival by the same name.
*She is considered by fans as one of the two most attractive female characters of the show, the other being  Hello Nurse.
*In the Pinky and the Brain finale Star Warners, it appears Marvin the Martian isn’t affected by her looks. He is able to keep up a coherent conversation with Minerva without succumbing to her seduction.
*Minerva once held the title for "Sexiest Female Animal with both furry and non-furry﻿ boys from the 90's", which originally belonged to Fifi La Fume from Tiny Toons Adventures until the title was retired.
*In the original version of "Moon Over Minerva", Minerva's cleavage line was a little too revealing in her close-up shots, so the cleavage line was whited out in close-ups. However, if you look really closely, you can see the spot where it was whited out.
*Among all the characters in Animaniacs, Minerva was never seen in any of the video games.
**However, in the Animaniacs edition of Monopoly, Minerva, more accurately a screenshot of her from "Moon Over Minerva", is shown on the space where Kentucky Avenue would be on a traditional Monopoly board.
*Minerva's first appearance was in Hercule Yakko.
