She isn't in it. Part of the story is after the OVA, the Empire fell, and she disappeared. The TV series takes place like 5 years later.

I thought that the main characters of the TV series are Yumiko's sisters.

As far as I know NeNeNe used to live with Yomiko and Yomiko went missing she employs the Paper Sisters to find Readman again they are not in fact Yomiko's siblings.

Yeh I believe that Nenene and Readman were in love or something like that. She doesn't really show up in R.O.D the tv but she is in a picture that Nenene was looking at.

No, they renamed it Read Or Die! TV

It's pretty good so far.

ee..... I dont mean the name. I know this thing is called Read or Die TV, and I think it is based on the manga Read or Dream which is slightly (read: alot) different than Read or Die.

Arkard is correct Read or Die The TV is based on the manga series Read or Dream. This series I think is serialised in Ultra Jump. From what I've read of the manga the TV series does follow the same situations as the manga.

In regards to NeNeNe and Readman been in love this is. In some ways true in others false. Readman is merely a big fan of NeNeNe and does not know how to express her feelings towards her properly so they make out. I think they replaced NeNeNe as a love interest in the anime with Nancy [Miss Deep] however there is speculation on whether or not Deep and Readman were indeed lovers. Also Yomiko has a boyfriend in the manga [Ellis I think] if anyone knows anymore about the strange relationships in R.O.D. correct me [as everyone else seems to be at the moment.]

Try checking the Encyclopedia, and only using ONE exclamation point or question mark per sentence instead of TEN.

Also, your blatant abuse of that Devil smiley is annoying.
