==Trivia==
*In the PaRappa the Rapper video game series his hometown PaRappa Town is presumably named in the honor of him.
*The name "PaRappa" is a play on Japanese words meaning "paper thin".
*In the non-games and game covers, PaRappa appears to be 3D instead of flat.
*As of Um Jammer Lammy, his mouth gets longer and gains a sad expression.
*PaRappa is romantically interested in Sunny Funny, but Stage 2 of PaRappa 2 has him practicing "romantic karate" on PJ which includes kissing him.
*Early concept art shows that PaRappa's early design had a baseball cap and a regular shirt with the letter P on it and different shoes. It also shows that PaRappa had a different personality.
**Early concept art from a 2001 Japan Report magazine shows that he was originally an onion-headed kid, a clam, a dragon, and a wolf, although the first drawing of him was a shrimp. The onion-headed kid design ended up being used for the background students in Chop Chop Master Onion's stage.
