Yeah, that is the point, but technically most people in the setting are cyborgs and the only physical trait she has that anyone ever comments on is how she holds her lips, which makes some people call her an octopus to her dismay. Her face is actually suppose to be the only human looking part of her body, though her brain is the only actual human part.
I'm curious to see who they are going to get to play Desty Nova, the most crazy ass mad scientist in anime.
