Canti

カンチ

Canti is a medical robot whose head resembles a television set. He was manufactured by Medical Mechanica, but Atomsk took him over as a means to escape MM. After Haruko broke his head, she recruited him as an assistant; however, he proves to be of little use beyond washing dishes and fetching drinks for the family. It is later revealed that Atomsk can manifest through him, with Naota serving as the catalyst. Atomsk's symbol appears on Canti's screen when he absorbs Naota; this symbol is a corruption of the kanji characters for "adult" (大人). The same symbol also appears on him when Naota "swings the bat" in Full Swing. When Canti is absorbed by the terminal core in FLCLimax, a similar symbol appears, but he uses the kanji for "child" (小人).
Canti's emotions are very human-like, despite his appearance. He is embarrassed by his broken head (the spot where Haruko hit him) and searches for the pieces to glue back together in episode two. He wears the box on the back of his head for the same reason—shame. He is also extremely polite, extending a helping hand to Lieutenant Kitsurubami even after she attempted to destroy him.
Canti also dons a halo and fake wings (which Haruko was wearing in early episode two). Mamimi is convinced that Canti is an angel. She calls him Lord Canti after "The God of Black Flames" in a video game she plays. The rest of the cast calls him by this title throughout the remainder of the series. Apparently, he can also eat curry with his "mouth," but it is never really explained how.
