Recoome

**Recoome** is a character appearing in Home for Infinite Losers. He is an upper-ranked Prisoner of HFIL, he is almost rehabilitated.

## Appearance

Recoome is very tall and muscular and is similar in appearance to a human. He has shaggy orange hair, beady eyes, and a cleft chin. He wears a green scouter on his left eye, a white Ginyu Force variant of the Battle Armor with a short black jumpsuit under it, white gloves and white boots. On one of his chestplates he has the Ginyu Force's symbol.

## Biography

Recoome, like the rest of his teammates, Freeza, Zarbon, Dodoria, King Cold and Cell was sent to Hell for his misdeeds in life, specifically to HFIL (**H**ome **F**or **I**nfinite **L**osers), a rehabilitation home for villains too powerful for regular Hell. He is introduced along with the rest of the Ginyu Force playing beer pong (with Shasta), holding up Guldo due to his lack in stature. As part of their rehabilitation and propensity for synchronized dancing, the group performs an original dance to welcome to their newest neighbor Cell called the twerk-a-rena. Cell is horrified by the spectacle.

During the first group sharing circle, Recoome does a choreographed, dramatic pose laden explanation about how Vegeta killed him, i.e. "put him in his tomb" (which rhymed with Recoome and doom.)

During the dodgeball match between Freeza and Cell, Recoome was Freeza's final pick for his team (technically second personal pick due to Goz assigning Guldo for him.) Due to his sheer size and raw strength, Recoome is one of the most formidable members on Freeza's team, his throws being strong enough to generate explosions on impact. He is however the first to be eliminated from the match when Zarbon, due to his pent-up frustrations at avoiding innuendoes causing him to transform to his monstrous form, delivers a powerful throw that manages to overpower Recoome's catch.

Following Cell's threat of calling the Ginyu Force bad neighbors to Goz and Mez for their inability to keep Captain Ginyu (or rather Frog Ginyu due to having swapped bodies with a frog) under control, the lot (primarily using Guldo) begin to play pranks on Cell by deliberately engineering accidents and mishaps to befall him. One of Recoome's suggestions is replacing his (Cell's) glasses with a different prescription, to which Jeice rightfully points out Cell's lack of glasses.

The two parties come to blows once Cell abducts Frog Ginyu to force an apology, though the Ginyu Force are clearly no match against the genetically perfected Cell despite the lack of chi. This leads to a mutually assured destruction Mexican standoff when Jeice claims to have had Guldo plant bombs in Cell's house and Cell assuming his self-destruct form, until Goz and Mez diffuse the situation, scolding the two groups for being out past curfew and finally disclosing that Ginyu had in fact swapped bodies with a frog. This leads to the Ginyu Force rejoicing that their captain is actually alive somewhere, but then are all too ready to dismiss Frog Ginyu, Recoome even referring to him as a "frod" (a frog-fraud). This makes Guldo scold his teammates, finally opening up to his own acceptance that Frog Ginyu was not specifically *their* Ginyu, but still just as much a friend and part of the team, just as he regarded the rest of them as his friends despite their poor treatment of him. This visibly touches Recoome and the rest, Recoome even acknowledging that he knew deep down and simply refused to admit it. Once Super Kami Guru (in whose stomach Frog Ginyu was hidden in) regurgitates Frog Ginyu, Recoome happily declares he would dig him a pond in their backyard.

During King Cold's inspection of the current residents of HFIL, during a session of macaroni art where everyone was to create an image depicting their greatest regrets, Recoome proudly presents his masterpiece to everyone, unveiling that he may have had sex with Guldo's wife and that he had used the session's entire stock of rigatoni to make it. He is later assigned as Cell's partner for trust fall exercises, but chooses to belly flop and painfully pins Cell to the ground.

## Abilities

Recoome is the strongest member of the Ginyu Force when it comes to physical strength. Burter and Jeice even said that though Recoome isn't the tallest member of the group, he certainly carries the most beef.

* **Recoome Ballbuster**: used in Episode 3 in their Dodgeball match against Cell's team. Recoome spins around very fast creating a tornado then fires the ball rapidly towards Cell, which the latter barely caught.
