## Personality

Bryan is a dynamic-lyrical comedic boy who likes to be wise, organized, and wacky. He likes to do some reading on the Dictionary and be wise to some lucks. He also is very generous to other students. He is very obsessed with desserts that he loves the most (ice cream, cake, candy, sundaes, and others), implying that he is a fan of desserts. He is also really smart and very cautious of everything at all times. He sometimes uses his phone to get information on various things or watch funny videos.

Bryan also has the talent of drawing since he was 5 years old. In addition, he occasionally draws in mid-air much like Yoyo Dodo from *Porky in Wackyland* (1938). Another reminiscent of the mid-air sequence is the character Wacky Yacky, who is the inspiration of Yoyo Dodo, is also able to draw in mid-air, which implies that Bryan and Wacky do the same thing in common.

Since he was young, Bryan also has a comedic side, as he would make other people laugh by doing his lyrical humor and cartoon antics (mostly with cartoon logic events).

At times, he mostly gets very shy with beautiful girls who he is in love with. This is mostly not intentional despite that fact he's with his girlfriend Marian Gul (from the original show, onwards).

Sometimes, he often gets annoyed by other people bothering him, as he likes to concentrate and focus on important things such as drawing, modeling, or experimenting.

He also has a flustered side in him. Whenever he gets hugged or kissed by a girl (mostly his girlfriend), he blushes and feels very flattered and joyful. This is intentionally possible that he's cute at all times.

At times, Bryan often gets a little unamused when Sebastian Mengoni addresses him by his full name. This is intentionally due to the fact that most people call him by his first name (this also counts with various nicknames that Bryan likes) and tells Sebastian to only address him by his first name. This case was surfaced in the High School Kraziness episode "*The Names Of Fame*", where Ian, Bryan, and Julian teach Mengoni to say various names of people correctly without having to say their full names respectively.

## Appearance

Bryan has a man-shaped body and measures 5 ft. tall. He usually wears glasses (which its design is made in Palm Springs, Florida and based on real glasses) and a red bowtie (which in some occasions in the comic books; the bowtie was seen in the original show, but was not seen in the Cool School, Project Acme, Acme Teens, or New Krazy Kids shows but did return occasionally in High School Kraziness). He occasionally wears a green shirt and blue shorts, and wears a pair of orange or yellow sneakers. He sometimes wears a sailor hat with a ribbon.

In the ending scene during the awards ceremony, when Marian passionately kisses Bryan all over his face, Bryan feels very flattered and joyful and compliments "You're my beautiful girl! I love you so much!". He then hugs and kisses her in return.
