Movie
Description
Horror, alternatively called Horrorman, is a skeleton character from the Anpanman franchise. He displays prominent cheekbones, protruding kneecaps, and a permanently visible set of teeth. His typical attire is a long, tattered purple shirt featuring a pair of crossed bones on the chest.
He embodies a happy-go-lucky and clumsy personality. While genuinely desiring kindness, he often unintentionally hurts feelings due to unawareness. Horror actively delights in trying to scare people, though these deliberate attempts consistently fail; ironically, he frequently succeeds in frightening others purely by accident. Easily manipulated, he demonstrates a tendency to try learning from various individuals, with minimal success.
Horror can remove the crossed bones from his shirt and throw them as functional boomerangs. His actions across appearances are driven by an intense fixation on the character Dokeen. This obsession compels him to constantly gather flowers and search for food specifically to present to her, usually in futile bids for her favor or attention.
His background remains largely undefined in official media. He debuted in the 1991 film "Soreike! Anpanman: Fly! Fly! Chibigon," serving as a mentor to Chibigon, before transitioning to a recurring role in the main television series. A 2007 film short featured Horako claiming Horror was once a prince, but the narrator's unreliability leaves this backstory unverified. He typically resides alongside the primary antagonist Baikinman, drawn there by his feelings for Dokeen. However, he does not consistently participate in or support their villainous schemes, fluctuating between roles as a comedic tertiary antagonist and an occasional neutral presence.
