## General Information

### Eng.Voice

Juliet Simmons

**Meinya** (メイニャ, *****Meinya*****) is Prushka's pet given to her as a present from her adoptive father, Bondrewd, as a tenth birthday present. Its name is a result of Prushka not being able to pronounce "Meinastilim" when it was given to her. Meinya joins Hello Abyss on their adventure to the bottom of The Abyss.

## Appearance

Meinya is a rabbit-sized creature called a Meinastilim, also known as a "child of change". It has an oval shaped body, stubby legs and feet, and large ears it uses to fly with. Its face somewhat resembles that of a toad's as its pupils are slit horizontally across the entire diameter of the eye.

By sniffing Meinya's fur, Riko and Prushka are able to navigate Ido Front without succumbing to the The Curse of the Abyss.

## Personality

Meinya cares deeply for Prushka, as shown when it cries in despair and begins to lap up what is spilling out of Prushka's cartridge after it has been used.

## History

**Spoiler warning**: **The following section contains spoilers. Read with caution.**

### **Early Life**

It is suggested by Srajo that Meinya is the result of an attempt by Bondrewd to create an artificial Juusou.

After Bondrewd had adopted Prushka he gifted Meinya to her and the previous frantic Prushka slowly started approaching the strange animal, with a dubious curiosity, and started showing signs of affection with it, naming it Meinya. Overjoyed with the first signs of recovery of his new daughter, Bondrewd declared that the day would be her birthday and afterwards Purshka's condition started to steadily improve.

### **Ido Front**

During the main group's stay at Ido Front, Prushka and Riko become friends and Prushka introduces Riko to her pet, Meinya.

During Reg's and Bondrewd's fight, Bondrewd ejects several of his Cartridges and begins to recite their names. Meinya interrupts him, running to one cartridge and, after sniffing and licking the contents, wailing over it. Bondrewd confirms that this cartridge contained Prushka.

### **Iruburu Arc**

Due to an accident, Meinya is injured by a very curious Narehate and the group witnesses the village's ritual to balance value. Nanachi confirms that Meinya is fine and it will just take a bit time until its swollen intestines return to normal.

When Reg returned to the village with Faputa's body parts, it was Meinya who signaled Riko of his return.

Meinya is seen with Maaa when Riko regains consciousness, after having used her whistle during the battle with Faputa.

Shortly before Maaa's final moments, she hugs Meinya and Riko close with a hint of satisfaction in her expression.

### **Curse Fleet Arc**

During their travel, Faputa prompts Nanachi about the nature of The Curse of the Abyss to which Nanachi gives an explanation. They suggest that Meinya, in addition to Riko and themself, would be susceptible to the Curse. Meinya reacts to something nearby and searches for it. The group follows Meinya to the corpse of a Black Whistle Delver.

Reg initially panics, but Nanachi quickly informs him that the Delver is already dead. As the group wonders about his cause of death and his affiliation. Nanachi searches him for Artifacts and finds Gentle Knock and Mermaid Burp. A lock pick and an air supply artifact, respectively.

When the group arrives at Camp 5 on the Furthest Edge of the Abyss, Hail Hex's outpost in the 6th Layer, Meinya eagerly approaches the White Whistle Srajo and perches on her shoulder.

## Abilities

### **High Durability**

Meinya has pliant, flexible bones that can undergo a lot of stress. When Meinya was injured, rather than being crushed, its eye was pushed out of its socket, and the intestines out of Meinya's anus, before being popped back in with relative ease.

## Trivia

* According to the author, Akihito Tsukushi, Meinya has the same smell as his parents' parrot.
