Mushi Sanban

**Mushi Sanban** is a 5-year-old kindergarten girl, the younger sister of Kuki Sanban and the daughter of Kani and Genki Sanban, as well as the love interest of King Sandy.

She resembles a younger version of her sister Kuki, although she has a different hairstyle and slightly lighter skin. Mushi constantly wears her hair in short pigtails held by yellow pearl braids. She usually wears an oversized lavender sweater, black leggings, yellow and pink socks, and white Mary Janes, and has a yellow backpack with a pink flower in the middle.

## Personality

Like her sister, Mushi is very childish and overly happy. However, unlike her sister, underneath her outward persona she has a very deranged, obsessive, mentally unstable and psychotic personality, despite her age.

## Appearances

She first appeared in *Operation: S.P.A.C.E.*, where her sister takes her with her on a space resupply mission, much to the chagrin of the remaining members of Sector V. When Cree attacks her sister by surprise in the absence of the other agents, Mushi gives a heartfelt speech that convinces both sisters to stop fighting, only for Abby to immediately throw Cree down the garbage chute.

In *Operation: K.A.S.T.L.E.*, she and her sister are captured by King Sandy and the Knights of the Round Towel so that Sandy will force Kuki to marry him. During this encounter, Sandy unintentionally falls in love with Mushi and abandons his pursuit of Numbuh 3.

In *Operation: C.L.U.E.S.*, the Sanban family comes to Numbuh 2's house for dinner. During the meal, the power goes out and Numbuh 3's Rainbow Monkey disappears and is found on the turkey table with a fork in its back. It turns out that Mushi is the perpetrator of this "Rainbow Monkey Murder": she stole Rainbow Monkey during a power outage, but when she realized it was sighing when it was hugged, she "killed" it to prevent it from being detected.

Mushi appears as the main antagonist in *Operation: S.P.A.N.K.E.N.S.T.I.N.E.*. She digs out the Rainbow Monkey doll from its burial site at the Plush Meadows Stuffed Animal Cemetery, brings it back to life as the Spankenstine Monster using the power of Count Spankulot, and sends it after Numbuh 2 as revenge for the previous incident. However, she was grounded and spanked by Count Spankulot for this, but is later seen escaping from her room with the help of King Sandy.

In *Operation: I.N.T.E.R.V.I.E.W.S.*, Mushi and Sandy, working as a team, are among the numerous characters involved in The Delightful Children's massive birthday cake hunt. They both steal Professor XXXL's perfect snow cone.

She later appeared in *Operation: B.O.U.N.C.E.* from Cartoon Network Action Pack 39, along with King Sandy, where they both tried to get revenge on Numbuh 2 for Mushi's lifelong grounding, but failed.

## Family

* Father: Kani Sanban
* Mother: Genki Sanban
