If her name is Nina I apologize. I'm not sure what her name is.
But I thought she was really cool. How she played hand-clapping games with ed and how she called for him to help with the 'interrogation.' I nearly laughed my head off. 8D
Anyway, I thought Mina/Nina was a very cool character!

I believe her name was Nina, with a tilde(~) over the second n, which means little girl in spanish.

I thought her & Ed were cute. Maybe in a couple seasons she could return for a visit to Ed. Maybe we can find a little more about Ed's past too!:-/

Too much of a hard-nosed "law & order" type for my liking, but probably okay company when off-duty and without her ticket book.

She was a great character, and is no doubt a honest and decent human being off-duty. But I think she kinda owes an apology to Frankie for being so needlessly hard on her.

Ya, I think Nina was pretty awesome. ^^ The running joke with the ticket-giving was funny. 8D

Yeah, I liked Nina a lot mainly because she and Eduardo just looked so cute together. Just as others have said, she appears to be a decent person when off-duty. Yeah, the whole ticket running-gag thing was pretty funny (if not a bit unfair to Frankie, though). 8D
Well she is an officer, and as much as she likes Frankie for allowing her big furry creation to live in her grandmother's house she still has to uphold the law when Frankie broke it. She did break a few of em, after all.
But yes, Nina is by far my favourite of the movie's supporting characters. Her and Eduardo's friendship had wonderful chemistry and to finally see just why and how she had to create Eduardo explained a lot about him. Loved how she spoke with him too, like how people speak to babies/dogs. But it wasn't in a condenscending way either, she really does love him and it shows.

Yes, but she still went a little too far, both with the merits of some of the "offenses"(A ticket just for getting rightfully mad about the singing?) and it just wasn't very fun to see Nina only further add to the massive list of responsabilities that Frankie had to take care of throughout the journey. The ticket running gag was honestly the only thing I didn't like about the movie.
And I don't remember Nina ever showing her appreciation to Frankie for all the work she does to look after Eduardo and the 1,000+ other imaginary friends.
Whatever you say Voxxyn, I don't want to waste my energy arguing with you over something like this.

I'm not looking for an argument, I'm just stating how I honestly felt. I would've accepted it far better if there was a extra scene at the very end where Nina approaches Frankie for a final time, who becomes frightened as the police officer gives her a professional put-down on her so-called lack of driving etiquette... and then shocked when Nina hugs her and gives her some personal words of genuine gratitude and thankfulness for doing such a good job of taking care of Eduardo. I think that would've been the perfect payoff to the ticket running gag.
Regardless, I think Nina was the best of the GWH supporting characters by far, and they did a great job with her character.

Her character wasn't really true to most cops, tehy'd let you go if it's something minor, I know my dad's a cop they have to do all this paperwork. Ninia must be one of the jerky cops. :bloogrin

Oh come on, cartoons don't have to be 100% realistic. :D
I loved how she was able to change her demeanor from gentle flower, to hard boiled police officer at the drop of the hat. And that scene where Ed offered her a lollipop had me ROTFL for almost five whole minuets.

Come on, man. You have to admit it was pretty funny. 8D

I guess but Mac seems like most people in the situations he gets into (except sugar & parties).

Her last name is Valarosa, and Candi Milo did her voice.
I thought her first name was Mina when I first heard her name. Oh well. Nina it is.
Oh, and she's very lucky to have created someone like Eduardo. He tought her to become a brave young lady.

I don't think there is an ~ over the second n. Her name would be pronounced "neen-ya" in that case.
This has been bugging me all week... What's the title of the song she is singing with Eduardo on the bus? I know the song, or at least part of it, but I can not for the life of me remember the title...

Ah, I remember it now.
"Oh playmate, come out and play with me"
great song.

She was adorable! I loved how she interacted with Eduardo.
She was a bit crazy with the tickets but it's ok.

Along with Douglas and Adams, I think Nina was a great addition to GWH. I thought the interactions between her and Eduardo, both when she was an adult and when she grew up, were adorable. I honestly hope we get to see her again in the coming season.
She went a bit too far with the tickets but she's a great character.

I wonder what would have happened had Nina been in "Cheese a Go-Go", especially around the time Eduardo was running around while high on the laughing gas. Do you think Eduardo would have still ended up in jail along with Mac, Bloo, Madame Foster, Wilt, Jackie, and Coco?

Probably not. Most likely Frankie would have for letting him run loose like that.

She and Eduardo are so adorable together. I love the part of GWH when they're doing that little hand-clappy game.
She's a cool person.

My thoughts exactly. They had the best moments of any in the movie out of any character aside from Wilt.
