When
Char Aznable
returns from a trip to the
Earth Federation
capital in
Dakar,
he brings with him a pair of orphaned children, who remain aboard the
Argama
as mascots and comic relief. For the most
part, Shinta and Qum are entrusted to the
care of their babysitter
Fa Yuiry
and their pet robot Haro,
but when they're really bored they'll pester
Kamille,
Bright,
or the kindly ship's doctor Hasan for additional entertainment.
