1. The name of Lucy's less psychotic alter ego in the splendid anime Elfen Lied. After Lucy is shot in the head with an anti-tank rifle she develops a childlike personality, and for the most part of the anime can only say the word "Nyuu". This single-word vocabulary leads the male lead (Kouta) to give her the name Nyuu.

2. A nonsense word in Japanese, though phonetically it sounds the same as the Japanese word for "Milk".

(Note: the Japanese equivalent of 'meow' is 'nya'. Due to the similar spellings, 'nyuu' is frequently mistaken for being synonymous with 'nya'. The two are not interchangeable.)
1. With a fantastic body, childlike kindness, and an oddly raging lebido, Nyuu is almost cute enough to make you forget that she spends her down time ripping peoples' arms out of their sockets.

2. Nyuu. Nyuu, Nyuu. Nyuu? Nyuu!

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
