Buffoons, known as Akanbe in Japanese, are recurring antagonists formed when objects merge with colored clown-like noses. These noses originate from stolen Glitter Charms converted into red orbs by villains. Antagonists like Ulric, Brute, Brooha, or Rascal activate them to summon Buffoons. Their grotesque appearance blends warped versions of the host object with clownish traits: circular eyes marked by crimson slashes, white gloves, and elongated tongues. Physical attributes adapt to the fused object while maintaining exaggerated clown features. Classified by nose color, each Buffoon type exhibits unique abilities and vulnerabilities. Red-nosed variants, the first encountered, boast raw strength but fall to individual purification strikes. Blue-nosed counterparts lack embedded Glitter Charms, resisting standard purification until overwhelmed by coordinated group assaults. Yellow-nosed Buffoons, summoned by Rascal, masquerade as mundane objects. Super Buffoons emerge from clustered red noses, gaining amplified power, speech, and resistance to conventional attacks, necessitating advanced team strategies for defeat. Green-nosed variants inhabit digital realms as non-combatant obstacles. Twilight Buffoons constitute a specialized breed forged from noses coated in black paint tied to an unhappy-ending curse. Directly controlled by their villainous pilots, these entities mirror their master’s facial traits and withstand all attacks except those channeling the Royal Clock’s energy. Their destruction drains the pilot’s strength. Most Buffoons release reclaimed Glitter Charms upon defeat, excluding blue-nosed types. Combat techniques reflect their object origins, manifesting as projectile launches, mirrored clones, or whip-like tongue assaults. Across the series, Buffoons grow increasingly sophisticated, with Twilight variants marking escalated threats. They persistently serve as antagonistic instruments to hinder protagonists, their evolving designs and defeat mechanisms paralleling the heroes’ developing skills.
