Kedamono /⁠╲⁠/⁠\⁠╭⁠(⁠•⁠‿⁠•⁠)⁠╮⁠/⁠\⁠╱⁠\

Everything takes place at the Wolf Circus in the middle of the desert

Popee seems to have a very short temper, a jealous and crazy personality throughout the show.

He wants to be better than everyone else in the circus, as shown by showing jealousy, for example, towards Papi when he managed to complete a trick that Popee could not successfully do. The same goes for Kedamono, who suffers the most from his violent outbursts. However, despite the violence he directs towards him, Popee does not actually hate Kedamono. [2] In fact, he feels less lonely when he is around Kedamono. [3] Popee is self-centered, but he is also lonely.

The reason Popee misbehaves and treats others the way he does is because of jealousy.

Despite his behavior towards others, Popee seems to be fond of his sister, Marifa [ 4 ]. He is apparently unaware of her true evil nature and believes she is blameless [ 5 ]. They may not be blood related [ 6 ].

On Ryuji Masuda's website, Popee is described as "a fast-paced runaway who will do anything to protect himself. He's as simple-minded as a child, and to say he's innocent is an understatement."[7]

Popee seems to get frustrated often. In a tweet, Ryuji Masuda noted that in Japan, people fear that they will not be liked if they don't achieve good results or high levels of achievement, and that this creates a lot of fear and anxiety. He says that Popee feels this way too, only his frustration and fear turn into madness. [ 8 ]

Sometimes Popee locks himself up so much that he self-destructs. Popee, standing at 1.65 m (5'4") [1], has blonde hair and dark blue eyes. Under her hat, she wears her hair in two small pigtails. She wears a white, pink, and red striped jumpsuit with a rather long cat tail, a pink bunny hat, and a blue satchel.

Unlike his son, Papi seems to genuinely care for Popee and Kedamono. Papi is very expressive. He is dedicated to improving Popee's performances, although his lessons are often extreme and unorthodox.

Papi was conceived as a character with both paternal and maternal qualities. [ 6 ] Ryuji Masuda explained on Twitter that the difference between the two is that motherhood is the power to "produce and affirm," and is characterized by unconditional love. [ 7 ] On the other hand, fatherhood, according to Masuda, is the power to "choose and act," and is characterized by weighing the negative and positive before making a decision or judgment. [ 8 ] Papi accepts both the negative and positive from those he loves, so his son, Popee, does not shy away from jealousy and envy (or other negative feelings), which often lead to destruction. With his paternal side, Papi believes that Popee has a long way to go... but with his maternal side, he also thinks Popee is very adorable. [ 9 ]

In the episode "SLEEP," when Kedamono winds up a music box to lull Popee to sleep, Papi awakens her maternal instincts when she tries to feed him a bottle. She gets furious when Popee knocks the bottle out of her hands, breaking it as it falls to the floor.

Papi is very devoted to his elephant car, Paola, and takes great care of it, becoming vengeful whenever Popee defaces her. Papi also seems to have a good relationship with Alien, interacting with them casually, while Popee and Kedamono are shown to be more cautious. Papi has a muscular body and wears a tight-fitting, yellow and orange harlequin suit with purple fringes and elegant white gloves. He also sports a removable sun-shaped headdress (which inflates when he's very angry and can also be used as a weapon, like a shuriken) and an impressive, emotive mustache. Papi had hair when he was younger, but may be bald now. He's a flamboyant character, unlike his son.

Eepop, while resembling Popee, is his mirror image/opposite. They seem to have a personality more similar to Kedamono's, falling victim to Onomadek's outbursts, though Eepop is somewhat more docile and fearful of Onomadek than Kedamono is of Popee.

Eepop seems to need Onomadek for the same reason Popee needs Kedamono: they're simply too lonely to go on without them. They're afraid of knowing themselves and must instead fill their existence with another person (or wolf), though Onomadek tends to antagonize them.

Eepop does not appear to fear Popee and showed enough trust in him during episode 33 to take his hand, though they are initially surprised by his presence and remain trembling as Popee challenges Onomadek. . Eepop is a mirror version of Popee, essentially the opposite of Popee, just as Onomadek is the mirror version of kedamono. Like Popee, Eepop is a human who wears a cat suit and a rabbit hat. The colors of his outfit are swapped to resemble Kedamono's.

. Onomadek represents the hidden side of Kedamono, and vice versa Onomadek is mean-spirited and sadistic, much like Popee, as he was first shown attacking Eepop. He displays Kedamono's repressed characteristics such as violent tendencies, selfishness, and short temper, and hides his normal traits such as kindness, shyness, and generosity. For example, Kedamono rarely prioritizes himself, such as when he sacrifices Popee for chicken wings, but Onomadek is quick to sacrifice others for his own benefit. Like Kedamono, Onomadek is an anthropomorphic wolf with pink fur and shorts with red and white stripes, similar to Popee's pattern. He also has a constantly changing mask, identical to Kedamono's, often with more aggressive expressions. Like Kedamono, his masks resemble those of an oni, a masked creature from Japanese folklore.

Kedamono is a purple-furred anthropomorphic wolf who wears orange boxers with a yellow star pattern on top and an ever-changing Noh mask that matches his current expression (i.e., whenever his actual expression changes, the mask falls off to reveal another one that reflects it).

Kedamono appears to be the kindest and most caring of all the characters, showing concern whenever someone is hurt or something is destroyed. However, if he is offered a chicken leg, he forgets his morals and will do almost anything to get it. He also seems to have a selfish streak of his own, though it doesn't rival Popee's, as he has recklessly provoked Popee during his displays of skill. While his patience (especially with Popee) is considerable, he has several moments of bitterness and reluctance to help Popee, possibly due to the unfair treatment Popee routinely metes out toward him.

Kedamono wears a mask because he is afraid of revealing his true nature,[3] which is that of a "beast" (this could literally mean that he disguises himself as a human with his mask, and that his true nature is that of a wolf).[4] However, even he doesn't know exactly what he is, and it scares him.[5] This could explain his obsession with food. There are times when this can be seen in the series, such as in "ESCAPE SHOW", when Alien destroys the fried chicken that Kedamono used to inject Popee with. His mask becomes very different, with rather terrifying colors and expressions.

The reason Kedamono follows Popee around is because Popee, as self-centered as he is, doesn't care to look beyond Kedamono's mask. He has no interest in what or who Kedamono really is, and feels that Kedamono is ultimately just Kedamono. [6][7] Even when Kedamono's nature occasionally rears its head, Popee doesn't analyze it too deeply, which relieves Kedamono and makes him feel safe. [8] Kedamono is also supportive because while he appreciates Popee for being shallow, he also recognizes that Popee is lonely and doesn't want him to feel that way.
