Gidget (ギジェット Gijetto) is a member of the Gekkostate.
Character
Gidget is the sensor and communications officer in Gekkostate. Her role is considered secondary and often she's featured relaying tactical data to crew or talking about relationship issues with Eureka.
Personality
Gidget is a bit of an airhead, which she admits, but she's not tactless and will go out of her way to protect others' feelings.
Relationships
Moondoggie
She's in a relationship with Moondoggie, but only after she made the first move. Renton spotted the couple having their first intimate moment while hiding in an abandoned mine in episode 16.
Eureka
About midway through the series, she tries to become friends with Eureka because she wants a sisterly relationship like the one Hilda and Talho have. After Renton left Gekkostate and Eureka realized he's gone, Gidget discovered Eureka taking on Renton's duties and even wearing Renton's clothes (which were actually given to him as a joke originally).
She is also one of the only crew members to have heart-to-heart conversations with Eureka, telling her that what she's going through was probably a change inside of her. Everyone found out later as Eureka told Renton and everyone eavesdropped on their conversation on the com-links.
In another episode, she also went with Eureka to buy makeup since Eureka wanted to look pretty for Renton. In the end, Eureka tried to use the makeup by herself and ended up looking ridiculous. In the same episode, Gidget also says she couldn't live without makeup.
Etymology
Gidget is based on a character of the same name who appeared originally as the title character of a novel and went on to be the subject of a number of movies and TV shows. The original Gidget was an airhead surfer girl thoroughly entrenched in beach life, much as Eureka Seven's Gidget is an airhead liftboarder thoroughly entrenched in lifting culture.
