character

RoBoDz Fuunhen features many unique characters. The main character, Nejimaru, is voiced by Ikura Kazue and is portrayed as a hot-blooded prankster. Nejimaru uses his natural speed to face the Baduru Corps, but is punished by the Elder every day. Sombrenosuke is voiced by Takemoto Eiji and appears as a cool swordsman. He is intelligent and uses a long sword without showing any weaknesses, but his intelligent personality can also be a weakness. Drumkanbee is voiced by Okiayu Ryutaro and is portrayed as a kind and strong man. Although he is silent, he can communicate with everyone, and is skilled not only in brute force techniques but also in using his expanding and contracting arms. The Elder is voiced by Iwasaki Hiroshi and appears as the elder of the Hidden Village. He is a very airhead and easily falls for Nejimaru's pranks, but he is also an important teacher to Nejimaru and his friends.

On the other hand, Captain Buddle, the leader of the Buddle Corps, is voiced by Takehito Koyasu and is depicted as the strongest captain of the Buddle Army in the universe. His leadership and power are unmatched and he is supported by his subordinates, but his weakness is that he is very opinionated. Subordinate A is voiced by Yasunori Matsumoto and is named Subordinate A, but he is not just another "A" and is a kind-hearted (?) subordinate who always responds to the captain's jokes. Subordinate B is voiced by Wataru Takagi and is named Subordinate B, but he is not just another "B" and is an honest (?) person who goes along with the captain's assumptions. Junior is voiced by Rika Komatsu and is a little Buddle who looks up to Captain Buddle like Michael Jordan. His dream for the future is to become "Captain Buddle".

Estelle B. Wool appears in City Robots. She is voiced by Hidemi Anzai and is depicted as a Robot living in the city center of Earth. She lives peacefully with the other city Robots, but it is a mystery why Estelle is the only one with a different shape. Rodriguez is voiced by Masaya Takatsuka and is one of the city Robots living in the city center of Earth. When the Badru Corps arrives, they go to the Hidden Village to ask for help.
