Story arc

History

MOMO is a prototype 100-series Realian. Her name stands for Multiple Observative Mimetic Organicus. She was designed to observe and contact the Gnosis. MOMO was created by Joachim Mizrahi and was designed to resemble his dead daughter Sakura. She views him as her father, and Joachim's wife, Juli as her mother. She was created at Proto Merkabah. Episode II reveals that MOMO was also developed in part to enable Joachim and Juli's real daughter, Sakura, to interact with the real world. MOMO was modeled after her. When Rubedo is able to communicate with Sakura inside her subconscious, she treats her as if she were her real sister and Rubedo promises to protect her and treat her like a real girl.

Episode I

At the start of the game MOMO is held captive by the U-TIC Organization within the base Pleroma. Margulis visits her in a cell, seeking to contact what he claims to be the man hidden inside of her. MOMO is the only source of the Y-Data, important data from Joachim Mizrahi. Ziggurat 8 is hired by the Special Committee for Close Encounters to rescue MOMO from Pleroma. He is able to sneak inside and release her from her cell. While not a fighter, MOMO supports him in battle as a healer and spell user. She is also able to cause problems for the sensors on enemy A.G.W.S. by using the Hilbert Effect. Finding his real name to be too formal, MOMO nicknames him Ziggy, a name that sticks throughout the remainder of the series. While they are confronted by Margulis, the two of them are eventually able to escape from Pleroma on a shuttle.

Escaping from U-TIC, MOMO handles piloting for their craft as they enter hyperspace. MOMO is disappointed to hear that they won't be traveling to the S.O.C.E. Committee headquarters where her mother is, but rather to Second Miltia. When U-TIC approaches, they try and fight them off and join up with the passenger craft Elsa. They board the ship, meeting Shion and the others and MOMO helps in fighting off the enemy. They reveal that they are heading to Second Miltia, the same place as Shion and the others.

MOMO remains aboard the Elsa as it travels to the Dock Colony, then is encompassed by the Cathedral Ship. When she and the others are recovered by the Durandal she meets Jr., but gets upset upon hearing him refer to her father as a lunatic. Shion and KOS-MOS come to see her in the Durandal Park to help cheer her up. Thinking they may split up from each other in the near future, Jr. provides MOMO with a bullet charm. When the Kukai Foundation is framed by the U-TIC Organization for destroying the Woglinde, MOMO is arrested along with the other party members. When the party heads into the Encephalon within KOS-MOS to try and prove their innocence, MOMO is brought along with Ziggy and Jr. to the streets of Old Miltia. They eventually come across the tower Labyrinthos, seeing her father speaking atop the tower then falling to his death, upsetting her greatly.

When a massive amount of Gnosis start appearing Junior orders the civilians to depart the Kukai Foundation and get on the Durandal. MOMO stays behind to help the wounded but is kidnapped by Albedo, who makes himself appear as if he were her father. Albedo brings her to the Song of Nephilim where he frightens her considerably, first by presenting a dead Kirschwasser, then severs his arm his arm and decapitates his own head. Realizing that MOMO knows Jr., Albedo becomes pleased, but also more maniacal and MOMO passes out. Jr. and the others come to rescue her and Albedo is able to escape due to the Blue Testament showing up. When Albedo revives Proto Merkabah, MOMO recognizes it as the place of her birth and further information about her creation is found out when the party travels through it. As the game ends MOMO is aboard the Elsa as it descends into Second Miltia.

Episode II

At the start of the game MOMO is brought to Second Miltia along with the others. The group is attacked by Richard and Hermann, and then Pellegri as they unsuccessfully try to take MOMO captive. MOMO is introduced to Helmer and then brought to the U.M.N. Control center where they hope to dive into her subconscious and access the Y-Data. MOMO is excited to see her "mother" Juli Mizrahi who falsely tries to show familial warmth towards her to ensure the operation goes smoothly. Disaster strikes the operation as it is revealed that Albedo left a trap within MOMO's subconscious when he was in possession of her. MOMO cuts off her neural pathways to cut off Albedo from having access to it and falls unconscious. The party dives into MOMO's subconscious to find the Y-Data and help her. Albedo is able to manipulate Jr. into becoming distressed enough that MOMO wakes up and Albedo is able to seize the Y-Data and open the path to Old Miltia.

Based on further conversations with Ziggy and her distress over what happened to MOMO, Juli feels a closer connection to her and tries treating her as she was her actual daughter. MOMO joins the party on the Elsa as they head towards Old Miltia. Towards the end of the game when Jr. is about to head into the Space Time Anomaly he talks with MOMO first and she asks to come along. He refuses, but promises her he'll come back. At the end of the game MOMO goes to live with Juli Mizrahi, who asks Ziggy to keep protecting her.

Database

Episode I

MOMO

Short for Multiple Observative Mimetic Organicus.
Activation date unknown.

She is a 100-Series prototype Realian designed to observe and contact the Gnosis, beings that can only be detected by a "special sense."

She was created by Joachim Mizrahi, and she resembles his deceased daughter, Sakura Mizrahi. Her outward appearance is that of a 12 year old.

pêche

French for "peach."

Episode III

MOMO

100-Series Multi-Observational Realian Prototype.

The prototype for the 100-Series Multi-Observational Realian; officially known as the "Multiple Observative Mimetic Organicus." Developed in order to make contact with and observe the Gnosis, which are only perceptible via "a certain special sense."

Developed after the transgenic type and the 99 Kirschwasser test bodies, MOMO can aptly be called the combined product of all the galaxy's latest technology.

Built by Joachim Mizrahi. Her appearance was modeled on Professor Mizrahi's late child Sakura Mizrahi.

Though she was given the bodily appearance of a child by Joachim Mizrahi, this is only a temporary measure until the final adjustments can be made to her functionalities. She was designed to be transferred from her current body once its capabilities and central nervous network are completed, allowing her the possibility of growing into an adult woman in the future.

The transgenic type is a hybrid of human genes and ALC Alcumia--essentially, the genes of the Realians. Consequently, MOMO, in her finalized form, shares an affinity with human cells, and would potentially be able to conceive a child.

Regular 10-Series Multi-Observational Realians have only their anti-Gnosis capabilities in common with MOMO; as roducts manufactured by the Galaxy Federation government, their abilities are similar to those of regular Realians, making MOMO an entirely unique entity.

MOMO, left at the dawn of a new era after the events at Michtam, began to work with Ziggy, Juli and the others in order to rebuild the world, firm in their belief that the construction of a new network was one path to saving the world. She believed that such a network promised a reunion with those who had already departed.

Pêche

French for "peach" but with a slight change in pronounciation, becomes the word "sin".

The French "pêche" translates into English as "peach." Although similar in spelling, the French "péché" translates into English as "sin."

Albedo's "Ah, ma belle pêche...there's no need to tremble like that. Else you'll make me feel like a...péché myself..." is a play on the similarity between the two French words, and is making reference to MOMO's "sin" of being built atop the corpses of the Kirschwassers.

The English translation for "momo" is "peach". Albedo truly is a cunning linguist.

Freaks

モモ

百式観測器のプロトタイプ。体内に埋め込まれたY資料の存在により、数々の組織や人物に狙われている。

覚醒年月日は不明。星団連邦政府軍、接触小委員会管轄の百式観測器のプロトタイプ。グノーシスに対しての索敵、観測を目的として、ヨアキム・ミズラヒ博士によって開発された。幼体似装だが、その外見は実はミズラヒの亡娘、サクラに基づいている。人間に限りなく近い自我を持っており、人々が悪口を言うことの多いヨアキムの人柄や、自分への愛情を全く見せないユリの言動に心を痛めている。シオンが、KOS-MOSのメインフレームにエンセフェロン・ダイブした影響で、父ヨアキムがU-TIC機関中央タワー、ラビュリントスから落下する映像を見ることになる。体内には"Y資料"と呼ばれる極秘データが組み込まれており、数々の組織や人物に狙われている。U-TIC機関のマーグリスは、アルベドを使って、このY資料を手に入れようとする。

MOMO

A prototype 100-Series Observational Unit. Due to the presence of the Y-Data installed in her body, she is the target of several organizations and individuals.

Date of awakening unknown. A prototype 100-Series Observational Unit under the jurisdiction of the Galaxy Federation Government's Contact Subcommittee. She was developed by Dr. Joachim Mizrahi for the purpose of reconnaissance and observation of the Gnosis. Although childish in appearance, her likeness is actually modeled after Mizrahi's late daughter, Sakura. She has an ego that is as close to human being's as possible, and is pained by Joachim's character, about whom people often speak ill of, and by Juli's words and actions, which demonstrate no love for her whatsoever. Shion's Encephalon Dive into KOS-MOS's mainframe causes her to see visions of her father Joachim, in which he plummets from the U-TIC organization's central tower, Labyrinthos. Her body contains top-secret data called the "Y-Data", making her the target of several organizations and individuals.

ペシェ

フランス語で「桃」。

ゲーム中では「モモ」のことを指す。フランス語でペシェという と「桃」、すなわちモモを意味するが、同時に『罪」もペシェと いう。アルベドはモモに対しての会話で「韻」を踏んで楽しんで いる。

peche

French for "peach".

In the game it refers to "MOMO". In French it means "peach", which is precisely what "MOMO" means, but at the same time, peche also means "sin", When Albedo encounters MOMO, he has some fun rhyming.

She was created by the hands of Joachim Mizrahi.
Her appearance is modeled after Dr. Mizrahi's deceased child, Sakura Mizrahi.

M.O.M.O.　その２

通常の百式汎観測レアリエンは、対グノーシス機能のみがM.O.M.O.と共通しているに過ぎず、その製造も連邦政府によって行われているため、身体機能は通常のレアリエンと同等のものであり、M.O.M.O.とは全くの別物といって良い。

M.O.M.O Part 2

The only thing that standard 100-Series Multi-Observational Realians have in common with M.O.M.O. is anti-Gnosis functionality, and since their manufacture is also conducted by the Federation Government, their physical functions are comparable to regular Realians, which is to say that they are completely different from M.O.M.O.
