Mei Mei (メイメイ 妹妹?, Meimei) is a female panda, Panda's little sister and Mama Panda's daughter.
Appearance[]
Mei Mei's appearance is very similar to Panda's, however she has two mauve-colored flowery ear-bands which make her distinguishable. She is also smaller in stature to Panda. She also blushes often which people find adorable.
Personality[]
Mei Mei is a young girl who is polite but also quite honest, similar to her brother and her mother. Her personality doesn't quite kick in until episode 21, where she sees Handa and begins to refer to him as her prince. She often shrieks over the sight of him and asks Panda to sneak pictures of Handa while at work.
Relationships[]
Panda[]
Panda sees Mei Mei as his cute little sister while she sees Panda as her lazy older brother. She has begged Panda before to get pictures of her "prince" (see Handa below), and has previously set him up to hang out with Rin Rin who he strongly dislikes. Regardless of this, he still cares for his little sister.

Handa[]
Mei Mei sees Handa as cute and handsome due to his shape (as he is similar to a panda) but she draws a distinct line between admiration and love. She has stated before that she just wants to keep him in her heart, and that she is not looking to be in a relationship with him.
