Description
White Bomber, also known as Shirobon, serves as the central protagonist throughout the *Bomberman B-Daman Bakugaiden* anime series, its sequel *Bakugaiden Victory*, and their manga adaptations. He consistently embodies kindness, bravery, and a strong sense of justice, driving his actions to protect others and confront threats.
*Bakugaiden III* depicts his legendary backstory as a prince striving to save his corrupted father, Golden Bomber (now Emperor Dark Bomber), from the Dark B-Da forces. This era established his involvement in cosmic conflicts, fighting with the Nereid Rebel Alliance against the Nol Arc Empire aboard the Gaia Bomber Fighter spacecraft.
Transitioning to *Bakugaiden IV*, he appears reimagined as a youthful resident of B-Da City. Initially playful, energetic, and occasionally naive or clumsy, he harbors a deep aspiration for independent flight. His journey begins upon meeting Blue Bomber and Dr. Gray Bomber, leading him to become a primary defender against the resurgent Dark B-Da. He pilots specialized flight-capable mechas called B-Da Armors, reflecting his dream: starting with **White Gale** (balanced, B-Da Cannon), upgraded to **White Gale II** (enhanced firepower, Metal B-Da Cannon) after severe damage by Draken, and later replaced by **White Blows** (rapid-fire Blows Cannon, reinforced armor) following destruction by Tiger. His bond with his B-Daron companion, the blue bird Kazemaru, facilitates transportation and occasional comedic interactions.
His development involves confronting limitations and deepening bonds. Hesitation against a mind-controlled Yellow Bomber led to near-fatal injuries from Draken, spurring Yellow Bomber's guilt-fueled retaliation. White Bomber recovered to intervene, defeat Draken, and solidify their friendship. His persistent idealism extends to viewing Black Bomber as an ally despite ambiguous loyalties. In the climax, he pilots advanced combined mechas: **Saint Blaster** (fusion of White Blows, Blue Braiver, Yellow Crusher) against the Dark Prince, and ultimately **Saint Dragon** (Saint Blaster integrated with Black Devaster) to destroy the Darkness Dragon and restore peace.
Later, in *Bakugaiden Victory*, he assumes the role of a **B-Da Cop**, a peacekeeping officer traversing space and time. Retaining his determination, he occasionally displays childlike impulsiveness. Partnering with Blue Bomber and encountering new allies like Princess Akabon and Midoribon, he battles the Devilvader faction. His arsenal advances with Generation V armors: **Siege Whiter** (Super B-Da Shoot), **Laser Whiter** (Laser B-Da Shot), and **Crys Whiter** (Hyper/Final B-Da Shot), culminating in mastering the **B-Da Calibur** weapon.
The manga continuity largely aligns with his heroic anime portrayal confronting the Dark B-Da.
