<p>The anime doesn't show that Prof. or Nano works.

Hakase is more of a mystery than Ika Musume! Maybe she turned herself into a kid and live off royalties from her previous inventions.

I find the implication that a character in an anime like *Nichijou* need follow common sense real-world rules rather amusing.

@Jan FYI, the anime is tagged as a 'Slice Of Life', so the common sense of reality is expected.

The thing about 'Slice of Life' (a genre which I love, btway) is that it need not have anything to do with life as we know it. Common sense of reality is most certainly *not* expected. Or how do you explain a robot with a key sticking out of her back in reality's common sense?

Where did Nano get money from?
