Onee-chan

Literally, "elder sister."

In otaku lingo, it refers to the nickname of famed seiyuu Inoue Kikuko. Ever since she played the role of the eldest sister, Tendou Kasumi in "Ranma 1/2," she went by the nickname of "oneechan." It was becasue she always wanted to be an elder sister.

On another note, she is forever seventeen years old. Whenever she introduces herself, she says "Inoue Kikuko, 17sai desu." (trans: "I am Inoue Kikuko and I am seventeen years old.") Obviously it's a joke, and people MUST respond with a tsukkomi by saying "oioi" (trans: "sure sure.") But if you really happen to be seventeen, she'll counter with "so-desuka" (trans: "I see...").

Example:

My dream is to meet onee-chan and say "oioi" when she introduces herself as "Inoue Kikuko, 17sai desu."
