Bank Bill is the main antagonist of the *Baku* series. He works as an employee of the United Bank of Money, though he was shown having multiple jobs such as manager of the Bread Bank bakery, judge of the Supreme Court, and an AC repairman.

His appearance is that of Hank Hill, the protagonist in the animated series *King of the Hill*.

## Background

Bank Bill is an employee of the United Bank of Money, a financial institution first introduced in S1E4 ("Hella Bread") of *The Baku Series.*In addition to this, he is also an employee of the Microsoft Corporation (working in tech support) and the manager of a local bakery.

Taking the form of Hank Hill, the main protagonist of the Adult Swim television series *King of the Hill*, Bank Bill seems to share very few if any personality attributes with the character whom he shares a likeness. Proficient in the usage of firearms (such as pistols), Bank Bill also enjoys rapping and anything related to bread itself (such as his job at the bakery).

In the episode "Bread Bank (No Gluten)," it is revealed that Bank Bill, along with Tobi, are from the state of Florida, making his nationality American.

## Events of *The Baku Series*

### **Season 1**

Bank Bill makes his series debut in the fourth episode of Season 1, Hella Bread. In this episode, Bank Bill, working as a debt collector for the United Bank of Money, calls Baku on Baku's new iPhone 4 in an attempt to collect an overdue credit card balance payment. Bank Bill attempts to reason with Baku, to no avail; Baku continuously insults Bank Bill, before informing Bank Bill of his intention to not pay the overdue credit balance, citing "new Yeezys" as the reason. Baku then proceeds to hang up on Bank Bill.

### **Season 2**

Bank Bill makes a reappearance in Season 2, Episode 6, "Copy Rice," where Baku calls Microsoft tech support after the purchase of the Xbox 360 S+ gaming system. Baku explains to Bank Bill that another gamer has the gamertag "Baku," and that he requires the gamertag due to it being his actual, legal name. This once again leads to a misunderstanding, before Bank Bill finally capitulates and allows Baku to use the gamertag (while also impersonating deceased Apple founder Steve Jobs).

### **Season 3**

Bank Bill once again appears in Season 3, Episode 4, "Back for the Bread," where he arrives at Baku's house armed with a pistol and demanding Baku pay off his remaining outstanding credit card balances. Baku dismisses Bank Bill, which causes Bank Bill to initially decide to shoot Baku, before seeing a bucket full of money brought over by Baku's friend, Grammy-award winning rapper Lil' Broomstick. Lil' Broomstick describes the amount as "hella bread," which causes Bank Bill to steal the bucket full of money and drive off back to the bank. This presumably squares away Baku's debt with the United Bank of Money.

### **Season 4**

Season 4 marks currently the only time where Bank Bill makes multiple episode appearances. The first, entitled "Bread Bank (No Gluten)," Baku enters a bakery known as the "Bread Bank" and orders a pair of specialty bread items, before coming into conflict with the cashier (who is revealed to be Tobi) over the presence of gluten in the bread. Bank Bill, who is the manager of the bakery, informs Baku of a variety of gluten-free baked goods for purchase before Baku insults them both and leaves with a bowl of crackers.
His other appearance is in Lil' Broomstick's most recent studio single, entitled "King's Bread," where he is featured on the track alongside Baku and Lil' Broomstick.

### **Season 0**

Bank Bill makes his most prominent appearance to date in the Season 0 debut episode "Back for the BREAD," where he kicks down the door to Baku's house armed with a pistol demanding Baku pay off his outstanding credit balances to the United Bank of Money. Baku, along with Lil' Broomstick, exchange words with Bank Bill, who proceeds to continue threaten them until Tobi arrives with Baku's Popeye's chicken biscuit order. Bank Bill then proceeds to insult Tobi's choice of occupation, before Tobi fires back and calls the police. After Lil' Broomstick's arrest, Baku tells Bank Bill to leave his house, to which he readily agrees.

Bank Bill also appears in the episode "Air Conditioning," where Baku calls an AC repair service and Bank Bill refuses to come out to Baku's house to fix it as he's on vacation. Bank Bill suggests to Baku that he should turn on the oven to make the heat go into the oven, and Baku insults Bank Bill over his lies. Bank Bill then asks Baku what kind of heat he has, and Baku tells Bank Bill that he saw someone outside cooking chicken on the sidewalk. Bank Bill and Baku continue their exchange over the phone until Baku hangs up on Bank Bill.

### **Season 5**

He first appears as the judge in the supreme court in S5E2, where he declares Baku guilty of the multiple charges that have been put on him despite Phoenix Wright proving him to be innocent. He was shown with a new outfit in this episode, where he wears a Supreme t-shirt instead of his regular plain white one.

Bank’s second appearance in Season 5 comes in S5E7, where Lil' Broomstick calls the bank asking why his card is declined. Bank tells him that his account had -$33,000 and that he owed the bank money. He closes Broomstick’s bank account, deleted his credit cards, steals his retirement funds, and sells off his social security number.

His third appearance is on S5E8 where he appears on TV to announce the new Ultra 100 lottery, in which you must get all 100 winning numbers in a row to win the $700 billion jackpot. Later he encounters Baku, Lil' Broomstick, and Tobi in a 7-Eleven while trying to buy 300 tickets for the Ultra 100. However, the clerk refuses to sell them to him and during an argument the lottery drawing is aired while the group is in the convenience store. Much to the surprise of the group, Bank Bill is the one reading out the winning numbers. He explains that the drawing was pre-recorded before mumbling that none of his tickets had the winning numbers. Baku asks Bill why he didn't write down the winning numbers earlier while they were recording and then print out a ticket with them, to which he responded "everybody makes mistakes". Tobi then says he has the winning ticket, which irritates Bank Bill and results in him trying to take the ticket at gunpoint. However, Tobi dodges all the bullets which causes Bill to stand down and admit defeat.

Bank Bill makes a major appearance in S5E11 in which Lil' Broomstick, desperate for cash to settle off his outstanding debt, attempts to rob the United Bank of Money where Bill is working as a teller. While telling Baku that he doesn't have $5,000 in any of his accounts to withdraw for new Yeezys, Lil' Broomstick runs in with a rifle demanding Bank Bill give him cash. Much to Lil' Broomstick's dismay, he refuses to cooperate and even draws his own firearm on Broomstick. He agrees to take him to the safe but refuses to open it. Bill asks Broomstick where he intends to deposit the money, to which the latter responds "the united bank of money". Bank Bill and Baku explain that the United Bank of Money is the only bank in their area, and Lil' Broomstick explains that since he hadn't visited a bank in a long time, he forgot which one he had walked into. Bank Bill continues to berate Broomstick until the latter fires his rifle at him, only for the bullets to ricochet off Bill's bulletproof Supreme white t-shirt. Bill then reveals that he has been embezzling millions of dollars' worth of funds from the bank over several years, essentially calling Lil' Broomstick a small-time criminal for only wanting to make off with a few thousand during the heist. A police officer arrived during the altercation stating that he had received a call but couldn't remember what the situation was. Bank Bill asked the officer to arrest Lil' Broomstick but was denied because the robbery had been a failure and there was no reason to detain him.

## Trivia:

* His real name is Hank Hill.
* It's unknown why he asked for bread instead of money when he first called Baku. Some people think he's asking for real bread, as in toast or baguette. But in slang, which the characters and he use all the time, "bread" is slang for money, so he could actually be asking for a large sum of money from Baku the moment he first called him.
* He is also the manager at the Bread Store, in "Bread Bank (no gluten)".
* He is always holding his can of beer or soda, but he never drank it for some reason.
* The moment he asked for his Hella Bread.17¢ from Baku, people didn't know what it was. It's actually made up of $30, which is the bread, and the additional 17¢, which would be 15¢ in Canada since they don't mint pennies there anymore.
