Nemo

Origin: Tartessos, Africa

Nemo is the captain of the submarine called Nautilus, whose purpose is to destroy the Neo-Atlanteans at all costs. He is a mysterious man with a dark past. Though he could have all mankind under his command, he chooses to live peacefully along with them on Earth, as he believes in humans and in their ability to love. While he acts cold and aloof when he first meets Jean, he nonetheless warms up to his outgoing cheerfulness and enthusiasm. Nadia, meanwhile, is very distrustful of him and is quick to accuse him of murder when he shoots a Neo-Atlantean to save her from death. He is based on Captain Nemo of the Jules Verne novel Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas. He also bears a striking resemblance to another famous anime captain, Bruno J. Global of the SDF-1 Macross in Macross. Additionally, he wears a uniform similar to Captain Juzo Okita from Space Battleship Yamato.
