Jibanyan (Video Games and Anime)

Jibanyan is a Yo-kai that has fierce determination to do anything such as being eager to fight over other Yo-kai that are causing trouble for him. Despite his motivation and power, he also slacks off on occasions if Nate's orders aren't important for him or when he's feeling lazy in general.

He has an affinity for Chocobars and anything related to his favorite music group, Next HarMEOWny, to the point of dreaming of having his own chocobar factory and collection. Jibanyan also collects merchandise of Next HarMEOWny and has a private collection full of them including pinup magazines, music CDs and clothing.

He occasionally speaks meow at the end of sentence, and occasionally speak some words in cat-like dialect such as "Nyice one", "Nyot bad"

Jibanyan is a red-and-white-colored cat Yo-kai, with pink inner-ears and a chip on his left ear. He has yellow colored eyes with large pupils, his nose and inner-ears are dull shade of pink. Attached to his collar is an aquamarine colored bell, matching the hitodama flames at the end of his two tails.

On the middle of his chest, Jibanyan wears a yellow haramaki which is always worn with several exceptions revealing nothing under there. He also stores Chocobars and several other items like magazines of Next HarMEOWny under it.

Jibanyan fights with his paws, whether it be for opposing Yo-kai or incoming trucks. He also attacks them with his signature Soultimate Move called Paws of Fury, which shows him rapidly attacking with his paws as other paws comes out from around him.

Though Jibanyan cannot evolve, he can fuse with other Yo-kai instead resulting in his personality and power being changed. Fusing with Roughraff will make Jibanyan transform into Baddinyan, giving him a more rebellious look while fusion with Coughkoff turns him into Thornyan which makes him spiky and feeling sickly. Jibanyan can also fuse into Buchinyan by coming into contact with Whisper, combining both of their powers.

With the Yo-kai Watch Model Zero, Jibanyan has three additional Soultimate Moves that can be summoned via the Z Medals resulting in a different pose and a comedy-based attack. They are of Nyaight, Nyext and Victory, According to their description in Yo-kai Watch 2, they are passed down from Jibanyan's family.
