Jesus Dimaguiba

> *"Mokang is the only girl I've ever loved but I always knew even when we were kids, I didn't deserve to be with her but I never stopped pursuing her. A part of me hoped that she would change her mind and feel the same way I bet if I had a better life."*

> *"If I finished school and if I worked harder and got a decent job, then maybe Mokang would've loved me, but that's not what happened; I chose to be a bastard".*

> *"A worthless useless bastard that everyone hates. No matter what I do, it won't change anything. I can't stop Mokang anymore. I can't even try because we're in jail. It just hurts so much when you know there's nothing you can do. I guess this is the end. This is where my hopes and dreams die. My life's going nowhere. I guess this is where I belong. A scum like me deserve to rot in jail. This is my punishment for all the sins I committed. Mokang ever loving me was a big dream, but that dream is over. It's over she's gone."*

## History

### Season 1

7 years after Ramon was arrested, a young boy named Tanggol was finding a brush for his mother's birthday, but he stole it after he saw Mokang playing Pamelo One. One of his friends tells him that he has a crush on Mokang but has been interrupted because she saw Tanggol. After insulting some other kids that tried to break Mokang's speaker, Tanggol and his friends save Mokang from getting bullied. At night, Tanggol was eating fish and veggies with his brothers David, Santino, and his mother Marites. Tanggol gave her a brush, but Rigor instantly punished Tanggol for stealing a brush. Tindeng arrived, and she asked Tanggol if he even stole a brush from a market. Marites cooks food while Rigor is preparing his NLEA uniform before going to work, and after David scolds Santino for being busy, Rigor is ready to go and let David meet his colleagues if he wants to work as a police officer.

### Season 2

Tanggol's group has been caught and ended up in prison. Meanwhile, David visits his older brother, but he keeps berating after a few minutes. At the court hearing, Tanggol and his group were found guilty of stabbing Roda despite a lack of evidence, and all the blame was put on Tanggol and his gang and not on the Tondo gang.

During his imprisonment at the Manila City Jail, he was later recruited by the BJMP personnel to kill any corrupt politicians and government officials (who are actually good people) as they were deemed to be a threat to their position as BJMP officials and some of the high-profile criminals, including the Red Phoenix. As a hired assassin, he was partnered with Babbles as his partner; he officially replaced the Batang Divisoria Gang in the process.

## Trivia:

* Tanggol desperately wants kindness and change for himself, despite being a thief. However, despite wanting to reform himself, he always gets into trouble with his friends.
* Tanggol admitted that he had a childhood crush on Mokang/Monique (Lovi Poe).
* Tanggol doesn't want to be pissed off when someone insults him, especially the so-called Tondo Gang.
* It can be assumed that FPJ's Ang Probinsyano, The Iron Heart, and Batang Quiapo share the same universe; though it was considered inconclusive, it can be true.
* His name was likely named after Jesus Christ, the son of God, as well as the Black Nazarene as his own homage.
	+ Speaking of which, even though Tanggol is a criminal and gang leader, it seems that he is still a devoted Catholic much like his friends, and in fact, he and his gang had a history of joining the Translacion every year on the Feast of Nazarene.
* If Major Cardo Dalisay exists in Batang Quiapo, he would like to arrest him, which was considered a challenge.
* In the original movie Batang Quiapo (1986), where his name was **Baldo** in contrast to his TV series version, he was portrayed by the late actor Fernando Poe Jr.
* His signature weapon is an M1911 pistol.
* If Rigor Dimaguiba treated Tanggol like his own son and as a decent human being, he would become a thief and end up in prison.
* In season 2, it seems that Tanggol was proven to be one of the skilled assassins recruited by the BJMP.
* Tanggol suffers from PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder). First, Rigor punishes Tanggol for stealing a brush in childhood; second, Rigor beats Tanggol in pulp; and finally, Rigor shoots Tanggol in the face of Ramon (the younger self) during the Feast of Nazarene Incident 2000.
* He is based on GTA protagonists Claude from GTA III and Carl Johnson from GTA: San Andreas. During the events of season 2 of the series, he was later to share some similarities to Jason from the latest GTA 6, where he partnered himself with Bubbles, who was seemingly based on Lucia, a female protagonist of the same game.
	+ He also shares similarities to the Cyberpunk 2077 protagonist V (male version, known as Vincent), who is also a big dreamer, changing for a better life for himself, although Tanggol has a family.
