Robin Le Pen is a character in Krazy Kids. He is a parody of the Looney Tunes character Pepé Le Pew. Depicted as a French boy, Robin is constantly on the quest for love. However, his offensive body odor and the white stripe on his back (always shown on his back side of his shirt) mostly sends other people running away from him.

## Appearances

Robin first appeared in the episode *Skunk-Boy*, where he was sent to Howard D. McMillan High School after being too smelly from his former school. He stinks up the whole school and causes the other students to be reeking due to his offensive odor.

In the episode *Live For Love*, Robin falls madly in love with a new girl named Penelope Ramirez, who is terrified of him and starts running away from him. However, at the end of the episode, due to Robin's cologne odor, Penelope falls madly in love with Robin and chases him, causing him to run away from her, much to his dismay.

Robin also appears in *The Bryan and Ian-Deheza Show*, in the episode *Swoony Stinkers*, where he serves as a cook at a restaurant.

Robin also appears in various episodes such as Veztoria, The Suarez and Tinoco Mysteries, and The Five Musketeens.

A young version of Robin appears in Baby Krazy Kids, in the episode Young Love Stinks and French Fried.

Robin appears in the 2020 *Krazy Kids* short "Happy Birthday, Nery Fins!" along with the other characters.

## Film Appearances

Robin appears in the 1995 special *Krazy Kids: Summer Vacation*, where he falls in love with girls in bikinis and starts kissing them. However, the girls start getting angry at Robin and start beating him up.

Robin also appears in the 1997 theatrical film *Krazy Kids: Karate Slam*, where he joins the Krazy Kids to help Martial Arts master Jackie Chan by saving his son Shu Chan from an evil villainous 17-year old karate girl named Shao Isasho, who wants him as a handsome boyfriend.

Robin was going to have a cameo in the 1998 film *Who Framed Billy Boston,* but was dropped for unknown reasons.

Robin also appears in the 2000 special *Krazy Kids: Trip To Tokyo*, where he falls in love with japanese girls and starts kissing them. However, the girls start getting angry and Robin is once again getting beat up by them.

Robin also appears as a mechanic in the 2019 film, Krazy Kids: Race Chase, where he once again falls for Penelope, and gets hit in the head with a mallet.

Robin appears in the 2022 film *Krazy Kids: Academia Heroes,* where he joins the characters from My Hero Academia to stop Bruina and Cruallen from taking over Miami-Dade County. In one scene, Robin is seen being cuddled by Mina Ashido, who really loves him despite his behavior. He is also seen at the Victory Celebration with the other teens and pro heroes.

Robin is set to appear in the 2023 reboot *College Teens*.

## Personality

Robin is a romantic-swoony boy who loves Penelope Ramirez, a girl who is constantly chased by him (and sometimes other girls). His personality is an inspiration of the Looney Tunes character Pepé Le Pew, and speaks with a french accent.

## Criticism and Controversy

The character's antics had been criticized for normalizing sexual culture and perpetuating stereotypes of French culture.

## Cancelled TV Series

In April 2012, it was reported that Jonathan Miller would voice Robin Le Pen in a television series based on the character, although no information about this project has surfaced since. In August 2017, it was revealed that screenwriter David Lee was penning a Robin Le Pen television series for Nickelodeon. There has been no new information since then due to sexual assault allegations against Lee in 2018. On November 12, 2021, Lee stated that his Robin Le Pen series was scrapped as Paramount was producing *Krazy Kids: Academia Heroes*.

## Trivia

• Robin Le Pen is one of the only characters who is based on another character, the others being Vextorian Vixon, Ronny E. Rodriguez, Zack Zoomer, Sebastian Suarez and Jon-Anthony Tinoco.

• His face is surrounded by white skin, similar to his inspirational Looney Tunes character, Pepé Le Pew.

• He is the second Krazy Kids character to be controversial, the first being Eddie Gonzalez. This is potentially because he was stereotypically French and some people were being offended.

• In the Krazy Kids comics, Robin usually chases Penelope until a girl named Hailey Concepcion, who is Penelope's sister, confronts Robin and tells him to stop chasing and touching her without her consent and against her will.

• In some episodes, there are reversals of Robin chasing Penelope, which are reminiscent to the three Pepé Le Pew cartoons, where Penelope falls for Pepé after he is painted blue, using cologne to remove the bad odor, and a white stripe painted on the back. As a result, Robin has a fear of overly-affectionate girls (mostly Penelope or other girls).
