Though several characters from Project Neural Cloud are implied or confirmed to be the same as the related character in Girls' Frontline (and in some cases Girls' Frontline 2: Exilium), their ultimate fate is currently unknown. To account for the possibility that the Neural Cloud versions may become strongly distinct instances from the Girls' Frontline versions, the Story subpages are kept separate.

Personality

Choco retains the happy-go-lucky attitude of ^AR FNCFNCFNC and her love for chocolate. However, Choco doesn't show the same childish selfishness FNC does.

Main Story

Choco is a supporting character during Chapter 3: Energy Sector - Helios.

During the Wipe-off Incident, Choco's Neural Cocoon landed in Helios and she became trapped in the reset loop of the Arche Pyr Project, manning a local bakery. She met Eucharist, who decided to repay her for selling her chocolate by explaining that she could keep her memories between resets by adding Energy Herbs to her chocolates. She later met with Zion, then with the rest of the Exiles when they became trapped in the sector during reconnaissance.

Choco's data processing abilities helped Croque solve the issues plaguing the Arche Pyr Project and lead it to completion.

Side Stories

Heartfelt House of Cocoa

Choco and Willow had conspired together to set up the Oasis’ very first Valentine’s Day in order to promote Choco’s chocolaterie. Choco had ordered an entire warehouse of ingredients from Miss Riko in preparation for the event. However, a week later her business had not increased despite Willow having published an article regarding Valentine’s Day in the Magrasea Weekly. The other Dolls had misunderstood the holiday and were causing trouble for the Professor instead. The Professor discovered Choco and Willow’s plan and requested Willow to fix the situation with a new article making clear the meaning of Valentine’s Day. Choco initially teared up over the plan being ruined, as she wouldn’t be able to sell her chocolate and therefore would have to eat all the ingredients alone. She then realized that this wasn’t so bad after all as she would enjoy the delicious sweets herself, but the Professor intervened stating that they personally would make and give chocolate to everyone in gratitude for their work in the Oasis. Choco inquired about the logistics of making that much chocolate, with the Professor planning to have other Dolls participate as a joint project.

Later, the Professor promised to have a date with Choco. They visited Choco’s Chocolaterie the morning of the date, only to have Choco toss them a mixing spoon and a bowl of butter. She frantically asked the Professor to start mixing, demanding them to get an even texture within 15 seconds. Shortly afterward, they completed their work together as they waited for the chocolate to set. Choco explained that the tempering of the chocolate and mixing of the ingredients needed to be timed just right, as being even a second off would result in a different taste. Choco was making chocolate for the Professor as a return gift; she was a professional confectioner so she needed to make the best possible chocolate for the Professor, at least three times tastier than the Professor’s own chocolate.

Moonseeking Resurgence

Choco briefly appears during Luna's fortune-telling session, asking Luna to tell her about a legendary chocolate recipe.

Sunset Blush

"The wine's burning sensation is gone, leaving only the original fragrance. Ahhhh~ just thinking about how it goes well with the rich honey makes my mouth happy!" - Choco

"What a coincidence! Choco mentioned this cocult incident earlier (Sigh) We've been so busy lately that I only remembered it when she brought it up." - The Professor

"An occult incident..." - Choco

Choco was about to speak up but I quickly give her the Look.

"None of them would end up being served to customers, much less sold, without Choco's approval. Letting failed products into the market would ruin the Chocolaterie's brand! Choco would never let that happen." - Choco

"YOU CHOCOLATE THIEF!!!! I'VE GOT YOU!" - Choco

Choco coincidentally hopped and skipped into the Oasis Ops Room while the Professor was attempting to think of ways to keep Kimie from returning to her lonely shrine. Choco had brought a basket of her latest chocolate creation from her Chocolaterie, an alcoholic chocolate with sweet honey and liquor made with pomegranate wine brewed by Souchun. Choco noted that the development process was long with her kitchen bench filled with failed products to the point she almost got buried by them once. However, she was puzzled that all of the failed chocolates disappeared the very next day and none of the cleaning agents reported having done so. The Professor saw the potential for opportunity and suggested that perhaps this was an occult incident that Kimie needed to spend time investigating, to Choco's bemusement. Kimie pondered that the Chocolaterie's staff may have mixed the failed chocolates with the sales stock, but Choco denied this being a possibility as her staff was all very well trained. Kimie was skeptical that there was a supernatural explanation, but considered if a poltergeist could be involved. She agreed to investigate and headed to Choco's Chocolaterie.

Kimie inspected the worktable where the chocolates disappeared, but found no presence of the occult. Upon questioning, Choco revealed that she had already questioned everyone but found no leads. Unexpectedly, Choco received a call from the Oasis Security Department, who informed her that a vampire was sighted near her Chocolaterie last night but there was no footage to verify as the nearby camera systems were offline for upgrading. They advised Choco to keep an eye open and report any strange happenings to the Security Department ASAP. Choco began to get concerned that there actually was a monster involved, perhaps a man-eating one, and then worried that the Professor might get eaten. Kimie was amused by Choco's reactions, and offered to do a stakeout with Choco. During the stakeout, Choco tried to stay awake but fell asleep with snoring despite her best efforts. Kimie woke up Choco as she spotted a silhouette entering the Chocolaterie. Blood-red eyes emitted an eerie glow in the darkness as it began to wolf down double handfuls of chocolate. Choco yelled at the black figure before lunging at it in the dark. After Kimie turned on the lights, the thief turned out to be a sleepwalking Helix.

Kimie inspected the sleeping Helix, discovering that she was low on operands and her neural cloud was at its limit. Choco noted that Helix previously felt useless due to her genetic researcher background not having utility in the virtual world of Magrasea, so Choco had doted on her in the past until Anna had helped Helix find a way to make full use of her specialty. Since then, Helix had fallen back to her old habits of overworking herself to the point that Choco kept seeing her in the Medical Department's sickbeds. Choco intended to wake Helix up to feed her, but Kimie instead infused her own operands into Helix which caused her sleeping form to become more relaxed. Choco expressed concern that Kimie would also become low on operands, but Kimie reassured her.

Choco and Kimie brought Helix back to her dorm room, where she woke up later in the morning after a well-deserved rest. Kimie and Choco had prepared all kinds of Japanese food including bentos, sushi, ochazuke, and over 10 different types of snacks. Helix was touched and fought back tears as she started devouring the breakfast with food in both hands; Helix had not eaten for several days. Choco and Kimie informed Helix of the events at the Chocolaterie, causing Helix to become embarrassed and led her to reminisce about her past. Choco and Helix informed Kimie that they hoped she would stay and live in the Oasis, and also eat Choco's improved chocolates. Kimie was touched by her newfound friends' words, but felt duty-bound to stay at Kurenoyume Shrine and thus declined to stay in the Oasis. Shortly after, Choco left to open up her Chocolaterie for the day.

Choco would later appear in the event story at the shrine with the rest of Kimie's Oasis friends, having already prepared snacks and promising that lunch would not disappoint.

Phantasmagoric Sojourn

Bonneville had made a stop at the Oasis Square on her motorcycle, when she noticed a light from a back alley despite it being very early morning before the crack of dawn. The light was coming from Choco's Chocolaterie, where the Professor was frantically preparing custom-made White Day return gifts containing chocolates. Choco did not appear in the event, but was likely one of the Dolls that the Professor was trying to avoid while preparing the gifts in secret.

A Sugar-Frosted Christmas Eve

Dear Professor,

It's going to be Christmas tomorrow, and I'm so excited! The snow falling outside is like sugar frosting; it's soft and ight and so pretty. However, using that much sugar would make the treat too sweet. I've been doing lots of overtime to make enough Christmas snacks for everyone, so I hope they like it!

Oh yeah, Hubble asked me to remind you to stay warm when going out tonight. While the Oasis' weather isn't too harsh, you've got an important job to do so you have to take good care of yourself, okay? Undine's Christmas parade has already started~ Do you like it, Professor? Hehehe, Choco was very happy when she saw everyone's faces after they ate those gingerbread cookies!

I've also brought some new desserts along for you to try. They come in all kinds of flavors too, so hope you like them!

Here's to a happy Christmas Eve, Professor!
