Trivia

 * "Mukade" is Japanese for centipede. Also, "mukamuka" means "surge of anger", which fits with their angry expressions.
 * The kanji 親 can mean mother, father and parent. As it is a robot and technically has no gender, it's unknown which word would be better to translation. However, "mother" would be a more accurate translation as it can release miniatures.
