Nana-iro Inko (七色いんこ, lit Rainbow Parakeet) is a manga series created by Osamu Tezuka.

The hero is Rainbow Parakeet, a genius actor who is able to imitate anyone he sees. He travels the world substituting for famous actors in difficult roles. He is also a master-thief, and robs the wealthy members of the audience during and after the performance.

The original Rainbow Parakeet manga was written by Osamu Tezuka starting in 1981. It is five volumes long, and has been published in French, but no other European language edition yet exists.

In a clear break from his traditional role as a hero (or at least a lovable rogue), in the 2003 Astro Boy series he is featured in several episodes as the terrorist Kato. In these appearances his terrorism is committed not because of ideology, but because he regards terrorism as art.

Rainbow Parakeet appeared in the Game Boy Advance game Astro Boy: Omega Factor where his character has been mixed with British detective Sherlock Homespun who is also a PI master of disguise.
