Don Patch

Don Patch, also known as Poppa Rocks, is one of the main characters from the Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo series.
== Charactah Account ==
Don Patch leads a gang against the Hair Hunt Troops, he is "beaten" at his own game by Bo-bobo and since then became his sidekick, in destroying the empire. He's mostly a butt-monkey in the fights, but does manage to defeat some of his enemies on his own.
Don Patch is a happy-go-lucky character, more so than anyone else on Bo-bobo's team. While facing extreme danger and the many powerful and troublesome threats in this world, he usually keeps his chin up and either finds or says something that completely destroys the mood of the battle or makes things even more bizarre. Most of his cheerfulness comes from his hajike-centered way of life, where he must always be doing something bizarre or else he'll be completely uncontrollable. Even during the most serious times, Don Patch can never take anything too seriously (nor can any of the other principal characters for that matter, save Beauty and Heppokomaru).

== Trivia ==
* Don Patch's "habitat" is the swamp.
* Don Patch's favorite food is cola, which is considered a hajike essential.
* Don Patch's least favorite food is ochazuke, because it's western food school.
* Don Patch's biggest rivals are Beauty and former president Bill Clinton.
* Don Patch dislikes nail clippers who scatter their nail clippings.
* Don Patch is based on konpeito, a Japanese candy similar to the candy, pop rocks. Which is why he is called Poppa Rocks in the English manga.
* There are small hints in Sawai's follow-up manga post-Bo-bobo, Chagecha, that Don Patch has taken a new identity as Mysterious Tiger Mask, a student at Gekiatsu High. However, he would deny any accusations made by characters that there is anything familiar about him, in particular anything that would connect him with the Bo-bobo character.
* In the latest popularity poll, Don Patch was voted the #1 favorite character.
* Aside from Bo-bobo and Beauty, Don Patch is the only character to appear in every episode of the anime.
* The Super can also be read as "Ikarin", since the kanji used, (Ikaru), represents the Japanese word ikari or "angry" (the kanji is read in this form as "do", which followed by the "n" hiragana spells out Don Patch's name).
* Because he changes into this form at the most desperate of times (and the fact that he turns yellow) points even more toward the fact that Don Patch is spoofed off "Sonic the Hedgehog", because not only does he look like him, but both he and Sonic turn yellow when in their "super forms". In turn, these are a parody/tribute to the "Super Saiyans" of Dragonball Z. Dodon Patch seems to be based off of the all-powerful "Super Saiyan 3".
* Despite technically being Don Patch (who was voted in 1st place), Ikarin Patch was still voted 7th place in the last popularity contest.
