1. The name of Lucy's less psychotic alter ego in the splendid anime Elfen Lied. After Lucy is shot in the head with an anti-tank rifle she develops a childlike personality, and for the most part of the anime can only say the word "Nyuu". This single-word vocabulary leads the male lead (Kouta) to give her the name Nyuu. 2. A nonsense word in Japanese, though phonetically it sounds the same as the Japanese word for "Milk". (Note: the Japanese equivalent of 'meow' is 'nya'. Due to the similar spellings, 'nyuu' is frequently mistaken for being synonymous with 'nya'. The two are not interchangeable.)
