Movie
Description
Jam-ojisan, a kind and warm-hearted baker, runs a forest bakery. His youth spent traveling the world gave him broad knowledge, reflected in the many books filling his room. He unintentionally created Anpanman when a "star of life" landed in his oven while baking an anpan. This event marked Anpanman's birth, establishing Jam-ojisan as his creator and primary caregiver. He raised Anpanman from infancy, fostering a father-son bond built on encouragement and support. Jam-ojisan is also linked to the origins of Melonpanna, Rollpanna, and Currypanman, though later media retconned Currypanman's origin.
His expertise stretches far beyond baking. He is a skilled cook preparing various dishes and an adept mechanic who invents and repairs machines, notably the Anpanman Mobile. His knowledge encompasses nearly everything within the Anpanman World. He lives and works closely with Batako, his assistant; while their exact meeting remains undefined, their relationship is familial. They collaborate in caring for bakery inhabitants like Cheese the dog and nurturing younger characters such as Creampanda, whom Jam-ojisan actively mentors.
Jam-ojisan's bakery functions as a hub for heroes. He provides critical support by baking replacement heads for Anpanman whenever damage, dirt, or partial consumption weakens him, restoring Anpanman's strength and flight. He extends this aid to other bread-based heroes like Shokupanman and Currypanman, offering mechanical help or bakery resources. His relationship with Rollpanna is marked by repeated attempts to welcome her into the bakery family despite her conflicting allegiances. Within the Anpanman World's lore, Jam-ojisan and Batako are considered fairies.
His appearance features fluffy eyebrows, a mustache, rosy cheeks, and a lighter nose tint compared to Anpanman, with age indicated by gray hair. He wears a white chef's hat, shirt, pants, apron, and bluish-gray shoes. Early print media depicted him smoking a pipe, omitted in later adaptations. Official media does not provide specific details about his role in "Sore Ike! Anpanman: Rubie no Negai" beyond his established traits and relationships.
