Bomberman, also referred to as "White Bomberman", "White Bomber", "Cheerful White" (in Bomberman Land Touch!), "Bomber John" (in Bomberman Touch), and (in Japan) "Shirobon", is the hero of the series. In the standard games, he is the protagonist and Player Character. He is usually portrayed as the heroic yet cheerful type, often saving his home planet from disaster. Like all Bombermen, he has the ability to generate bombs in his hands. In later games, such as Bomberman Max and Bomberman Tournament, he is shown to be part of an interplanetary police force stationed at Bomber Base. The White Bomberman also made appearances in other games, such as Wario Blast, a Bomberman game featuring Nintendo mascot Mario's rival, Wario (although that was not the case in Japan). He also appears in DreamMix TV: World Fighters Hudson fighting game with characters from Hudson Soft, Konami, and Takara, and in the Nintendo fighting game Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as a non-playable Assist Trophy and as a Mii Fighter outfit. He even makes a giant playable appearance in Star Parodier, a spoof of the Star Solider series, which is also developed by Hudson Soft. He has been featured in three Anime series; Bomberman B-Daman Bakugaiden and Bomberman B-Daman Bakugaiden V are based on the marble shooting game B-Daman, while Bomberman Jetters inspired the video game of the same name. In the anime Bomberman Jetters, he had an older brother named Mighty.
