Klonoa (character)/Relationships

==Family==
===Grandpa===
Grandpa is Klonoa's grandfather who raised him.
At the end of Klonoa: Door to Phantomile, Klonoa discovered that the Grandpa he knew was just a stranger pretending to be his relative, as Klonoa's life on Phantomile and all of his memories were just a lie, fabricated by Huepow as a part of a big plot to save Phantomile from the ultimate Nightmare.
==Friends==
===Huepow===
Huepow is one of Klonoa's friends from Phantomile. 
The two share an unbreakable bond, having been childhood friends throughout the course of Door to Phantomile. After the adventure, Huepow told Klonoa that it was time for him to go back to where he originally came from as he confessed that he was responsible for bringing Klonoa into the world of Phantomile and that the world that he lived in was all a dream and every single moment they shared together was all just a set up so that he could use Klonoa to save Phantomile. Klonoa refused to believe him and wanted more answers, but suddenly he felt himself being dragged into a portal while Lephise began singing the Song of Rebirth, sending Klonoa back to his world. However, Huepow found it too hard to say goodbye to his best friend Klonoa, so he tried to help him stay, but was too late. In the final scene, Huepow was seen crying, showing that he still cared about Klonoa. 
In Klonoa: Empire of Dreams, they meet again when Klonoa awoke one morning in the Empire of Dreams with Huepow, and was dragged by the Emperor's three royal guards to his throne room. The pair were brought before Emperor Jillius himself informed Klonoa that he broke the sacred law of his kingdom by dreaming. The Emperor offered them a challenge: if they could defeat the four monsters that were ravaging the Empire, then their execution would be canceled and they would be set free. With Huepow by his side, Klonoa traveled to the surrounding lands and battle with the four monsters living there: Chipple, Muzika, Chirin and Dr. Medim. At the end, Klonoa and Huepow managed to reach Jillius throne room and defeated him, only to discover that his minister, Bagoo, was manipulating him and was the mastermind, while Jillius just left clues in the monsters dreams. With Bagoo defeated, Jillius decided to allow the citizens to dream, while Klonoa and Huepow disappeared back to their own worlds.
During Klonoa 2: Dream Champ Tournament, it is revealed they kept in contact since Klonoa received a letter from him, showing they are still good friends.
In Klonoa: Dream Traveller of Noctis Sol, he reunited with Klonoa and they travel through the Dream Stream.

===Chipple===
The two are good friends with Chipple seeing Klonoa as his idol and seeking to be like him.
They first met in Empire of Dreams, where Klonoa had to fight Chipple while he was being controlled. After Chipple was set free, they became friends and Chipple came to admire Klonoa.
In Dream Champ Tournament, they meet again and Klonoa was happy to see his old friend and they caught up, with Klonoa introducing him to his other friends Lolo and Popka. Klonoa was saddened that Chipple lost to Guntz and tried to comfort him. Klonoa was also horrified to learn that the losers would be turned into gears by Garlen. After Klonoa defeated Garlen, everyone changed back and Klonoa was happy to see Chipple normal again. When he obtained the tournament trophy, Chipple congratulated him on becoming champion and joined him and his friends in celebrating this event as he holds his new trophy.
During Dream Traveller of Noctis Sol, Klonoa was shocked to see him again and tried to reconnect with him but was surprised Chipple had no memory of him. He tried to explain to him that they were good friends but ran away after Chipple transformed and attacked him. Klonoa was very surprised that he wasn't the meek kangaroo he knew. Klonoa later deduced they were in one of Chipple's old dreams and understood his lack of recollection. At the end, he was shocked to see that Tenebrae Hue summon him, Guntz, and Nightmare Klonoa to destroy him.
===Lolo===
Lolo is one of his friends from Lunatea. He cares deeply for her and seems to have a crush on her.
Klonoa first encountered Lolo in Lunatea's Veil, she and Popka saved him from drowning when he fell in the sea. He later agreed to help her in her journey to repay her for saving him, something that delighted her. They developed a strong friendship in the course of their adventure. This may be thought of as romantic on Lolo's side, due to the fact when Tat remarks about Klonoa being pesky, Lolo stated it didn't matter as she liked him just fine but she becomes extremely embarrassed and blushes full red after Klonoa noticed her words and was surprised by them. It is unknown if Klonoa has any feelings for her, though he did get just as nervous when Lolo quickly changed the subject. Also, when he saw her memories of being mocked by her fellow priestesses and her becoming sad from them, he tried to comfort her but she turned him away and only apologized for using him to advance. He continued to worry for her and defended her from the old tree's remarks. Klonoa was happy when she regained her confidence and helped him. At the end of the game, she tells Klonoa that she has given up her priestess status just so she can obtain on her own and he gives her his support. As Klonoa prepared to leave Lunatea, Lolo is sad about this as she reflects this had to happen sooner or later. Before Klonoa could leave, he watches her break into tears until she ran at him, hugging him and refusing to let him go. While he was sad as well, he thanks her for her friendship and promised her that they would always be together no matter what, as she accepted his choice to leave. After Lolo calms herself, Klonoa smiles at her and they bid each other farewell. 
They are reunited in Dream Champ Tournament, as Klonoa was called out by her and was happy to see his friend again as she was to see him again. They caught up before the tournament started. He was worried about how she'll do in the tournament, but she assures Klonoa that she got stronger since their last encounter and he was interested in seeing her claims. Lolo's efforts are successful after she advances in the tournament earning praise from him, much to her joy. When she loses to Guntz, he is upset at her loss but this changes when he sees she is in danger by Garlen. Seeing her held captive, Klonoa was angry at Garlen and Guntz for taking his friend and goes out of his way to save her. After defeating Guntz, the first thing he demanded from Garlen was for Lolo to be freed before Garlen reveals his true intentions. Once he defeats Garlen, Klonoa manages to free Lolo and is shown carrying her because of her weakened state. He asked her if she was okay, as Lolo only replies by thanking him for saving her from a terrible fate. These events show Klonoa possibly returns her feelings, as he was greatly relieved to see her okay. Later on, the pair are seen together when Klonoa is honored as the greatest hero of the tournament.
In Lolo's ending of Klonoa Beach Volleyball, she was originally going to treat Klonoa and Popka to shopping but ultimately keeps dropping the objects, resulting in Klonoa deciding to carry the bags for her. Lolo promised him that she'll do better in shopping when seeing she inconvenienced him.

She shows feelings for Klonoa by being amused from certain antics of his, that she finds cute. In the final chapter, a giant monster attacks and when Klonoa swallows a pill that puts him at risk of being a bomb, this causes everyone to flee from him, to his sadness. However, he sees Lolo stayed by his side. After he inquires why, she confesses her love to him, and he is touched by them. He also uses his assumed final moments to save the town by destroying the monster, as Lolo is scared but amazed by his act. However, she is relieved to see him alive but chases him since he owed her money, though still shows feelings for him.
In Dream Traveller of Noctis Sol, he recalled his time with Lolo and Popka when he was in Lunatea and grateful for the happy times. After he heard of Nighty-Knights' invasions in other worlds, he worried about Lunatea and wondered if it was in danger unaware it was being invaded too. Once he and Popka find Lolo held captive by Nightmare Klonoa, he demanded him to get away from her even attacking his doppelgänger in anger while Lolo realized he was back. After getting rid of the fake, he frees an overjoyed Lolo from imprisonment and she holds his hand in delight. Klonoa was worried about for her well-being when he asked if she was alright but she happily assured him that she was fine. In return, he assured her that he was going with her as they head back to Lunatea, he even swore not to leave her side again as he clung to her. When they returned to Lunatea, he was happy at her waking up to see him before he was hugged by her, a sentiment he returned. Lolo also helped power his ring and Klonoa was seen smiling as he held her hand after pushing back invaders. It is shown Klonoa respects her as well, as he told the High Priestess that Lolo was the one who saved the day. He praised Lolo for her actions in repelling an invasion and sending Popka to find him, as she shyly accepted his compliment and stated she was happy that he was back.

At the end of the journey, he was sad that Klonoa had to leave Lunatea and looked away as he left the world.
They meet again in Dream Champ Tournament, Klonoa was happy to see Popka along with Lolo again and they caught up before the tournament started.

In Dream Champ Tournament, Guntz was known to taunt Klonoa indicating how weak and much of an "impudent brat" he is. In return, Klonoa was angered by Guntz' arrogance and wanted to prove himself to Guntz. Klonoa's dislike grew after Guntz defeated his friend Lolo, which put her in danger when Garlen turned out to be using everyone. This led to Klonoa and Guntz being the final two in the tournament which Guntz loses in the end. As he was being captured, Guntz aids Klonoa who is close to being turned into a gear by shooting the Nagapoko, leaving the rest up to him. Guntz made off with the prize money, but not before giving Klonoa the trophy for the tournament, which effectively made Klonoa the champion.
During Dream Traveller of Noctis Sol, Klonoa was shocked to see him again but was surprised Guntz had no memory of him. He tried to explain that while they were hostile to each other at some point, they were friends. but ran away after Guntz attacked him.

At the end, he was shocked to see that Tenebrae Hue summon him, Chipple, and Nightmare Klonoa to destroy him.
===Suiryu===
Suiryu is one of Klonoa's newer friends. 
In Dream Champ Tournament, Suiryu fought against Klonoa in the tournament and was confident that he'd beat him but warned Klonoa of the dark truth of the event. In return, Klonoa was confused by his warning and after winning the match, he was horrified by watching Suiryu be turn into a gear.

==Neutral==
===Leorina===
Leorina is one of Klonoa's former adversaries in Lunatea.
He first met her in Lunatea's Veil when she arrived at the temple with Tat, demanding for his Wind Ring. She unleashed a large machine to take it from him but he defeated it. Leorina remarked on Klonoa's talents and told him she'd remember his name, making it obvious that she'd come back for him in his quest. Klonoa regarded Leorina as an enemy since she served as a hindrance but her opinion was not clear.
Leorina later disguised herself as Baguji and took the Elements for herself. Klonoa pursued her and watched when the Sky Pirate changed the world of Lunatea to her whim. After Leorina was overcome by sorrow, this forced Klonoa to fight and defeat her in Embryo Compass of the Ishras Ark. The injured Leorina was not bothered by this and put her faith in him saving the world. She was seen again in Tat's aircraft, when the latter helped Klonoa stop the Ark from reaching the Kingdom of Sorrow, saving him and Popka from the fiery blasts of the overloading generators. Leorina also intervened on Klonoa's behalf and pleaded with him to defeat the King of Sorrow. The last time Klonoa sees her, she is rebuilding the kingdom and he is amused by Lolo's comment on this.
===Tat===
Tat is one of Klonoa's former adversaries in Lunatea.
He first met her in Lunatea's Veil when she arrived at the temple with Leorina, demanding for his wind ring. She unleashed a large machine to take it from him but he defeated it. Tat remarked on Klonoa's talents and called him cool but made it obvious that she'd come back for him in his quest. Klonoa regarded Tat as an enemy since she served as a hindrance but her opinion varied as her two different forms possessed contrasting opinions on him. Her black form doesn't appear to like Klonoa very much, occasionally taunting him and even calling him a "perv" after he catches her on the Jungle Slider (though it should be noted if you catch the white form first, she also calls you a perv). Her white form, however, acts almost the opposite. She refers to him as "darling" at one point at the Joilant Fun Park (to Klonoa's obvious confusion and annoyance) and even helps Klonoa (and the player) to catch her by instructing how to use a Kiton to reach the ledge she's on. However, this could be due to her teasing him.
Tat wasn't seen again until Leorina has the Elements in her possession after she disguised herself as Baguji. The cat threw the last Element to Leorina, allowing the Sky Pirate to change the world of Lunatea. After Leorina was overcome by sorrow and was defeated by Klonoa in Embryo Compass of the Ishras Ark, Tat was seen comforting the injured Leorina, not leaving her side in her moment of need. She later saved Klonoa and Popka from the fiery blasts of the overloading generators. Despite doing this, Tat claimed that she didn't like Klonoa for hurting Leorina when she was consumed by sorrow but saved him another time.

Klonoa was angry that his friend was crying and confronted his counterpart, by telling him that he wasn't him and demanded that he get away from Lolo as Nightmare Klonoa was surprised by his appearance. They battled with both shooting their respective Wind Bullets at one another until Klonoa successfully inflated his evil alter ego, temporarily immobilizing him.
