Namero Yokonaka is a schoolboy from Ramen High School. Initially coming off as a bitter person who views the world in black-and-white, something more horrible and dreadful is soon discovered about him.
[edit] Quiet Student
Namero makes a cameo in Chapter 3 of Shinsetsu Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo, observing another "Kegari-men" Hunt, ridiculing at the fear of the victimized citizens. He is officially introduced in Chapter 4, entering Ramen High School, expecting another regular school day, but instead, finds Bo-bobo (under the name "Bobopatch-sensei) acting as his substitute teacher. He challenges Bo-bobo to a fight, showing his bizarre power, the Lerolero Shinken (Fist of the Wobbly Tongue). Despite his attempts, he has a tough time standing up to Bo-bobo's odd abilities. On the verge of losing, the headmaster of the school, Chairman Pepepebitch, springs a trap on Bo-bobo and the others. Namero walks away from the flooding school, leaving Bo-bobo and his friends to their supposed doom (Even though they actually survived).
Namero reappears in Chapter 13 to challenge Babuu to a fight this time, specifically in the name of getting revenge for being kicked out of the Maruhage Empire's training facility. He nearly loses to him, but is thankfully assisted by Bo-bobo, and together, they team up and defeat Babuu together. After the battle, Namero joins Bo-bobo's team.
[edit] Rivalry and Disposition
Namero follows Bo-bobo on his mission to rescue Heppokomaru's sister Pokomi from the Neo F-Block Base, but instead of directly participating, he takes his sweet time climbing up the tower and killing the soldiers of the base while Bo-bobo and the others battle Pokomi, the actual commander. After she joins the team, Namero receives a major shock upon rediscovering her, for she was actually his pet peeve from his days at the Neo Maruhage Training Academy. Pokomi was both stronger than him and had the desire to befriend him out of lonliness, which lead Namero to dispise her bitterly. This factor carries out throughout the rest of the series until the very end.
The next stop for the Shinsetsu Team is the amusement park of the Elite Maruhage Academy. There, Namero is immediately taken away by Tsurubinya, the Neo E-Block commander and the third top student of the academy. Elsewhere in the vincity, he explains Namero's true origins...
[edit] The Evil Emperor reborn
Tsurubinya reveals to Namero that he was born with a mysterious powerful aura that randomly and rarely came up in any person. The power of the aura is powerful enough to immediately mandate Namero to become the next emperor of the Maruhage Empire, Tsuru Tsurulina V! Tsurubinya expresses his deep resentment for Namero because of this aura (He witnessed Namero's aura being sealed as a baby), and attempts to kill Namero by unlocking his aura and defeating him then, but he is killed in turn for doing so. Bo-bobo, Beauty, Don Patch, Gaoh, Jelly Jiggler, and Pokomi then discover Namero and his new form, and he tests out his new Teiou Shinken (Fist of the Emperor) on Bo-bobo and the others. The long, drawn-out battle leaves the team in shock as they nearly fall to his awesome power, and with this power, Namero sees it best that he re-establishes his connections with the evil empire. But Bo-bobo doesn't give up easily. Bo-bobo is actually able to counter Namero's abilities with his new "Super Bo-bobo" form, and is actually able to defeat him! However, Pokomi tries to end the violence by protecting Namero, but in turn, she is struck down by Porusutori, another member of the empire, along with fellow member Jobus. Namero yells at him for hurting her, and he is struck down in response. Jobus restrains Porusutori, explaining that he has come to take Namero in for training to become the next emperor. After Bo-bobo defeats Porusutori, Namero and Jobus leave them, and Namero spends most of the remainder of the series in training.
[edit] Tsuru Tsurulina V
After rigorus training, Namero re-appears alongside Tsuru Tsurulina III in Chapter 69 in the final battle to destroy the Maruhage Empire once and for all. He shows off his greatly increased deadly powers, yet is still beaten down by the Nonsense Team. Pokomi constanly pleas to him to end his emperor regin, but he remains deaf to her until Chapter 72, where Bo-bobo states how impressed he is by Namero's growth. He then decides to fight Bo-bobo by himself independent of Tsuru Tsurulina III, but after he is defeated for good, Namero finally ends his emperor-hood and heads off on his own, never to be seen again.
[edit] Appearance and Personality
Namero bears a fairly strong resemblence to Heppokomaru and Halon Oni, especially in his empiric state. His regular outfit is the Ramen High School uniform, which consists of checkered pants, a striped tie, and a suit top.
During the final battle against him and Tsuru Tsurulina III, Namero goes under a complete makeover. His hairstyle matches that of Tsuru Tsurulina III, albeit with a small mohawk, and his outfit consists of the Blue Light Corp.'s signature shirt and pants with a belt buckle sporting the Maruhage symbol (A winged eagle) under a torn cape and armored shoulderguards. He has dagger-shaped earrings and a necklace for accessories, and the Roman Numeral V is carved on his forhead. Namero wears this attire as Tsuru Tsurulina V.
Namero has a very bitter and nihilistic personality. He views the world from a one-colored perspective, where those who are weaker than him are viewed as mere cockroaches in his vision. The only one who broke his vision was Pokomi, and Bo-bobo had also broken his vision once in Chapter 4. He only thinks of himself, and whenever he battles, he makes the fight for the enemy as painful as possible. He expresses no love or regard for any other person, at least until Chapter 72 when Pokomi finally convinces him to end his empiric ways.
[edit] Character Relationships
Namero is very distant from the group from his time being with them. Although the team is generally friendly to him, he makes no form, or a bitter response in return. Heppokomaru does not like Namero at all, presumably because he shows disregard to Pokomi, who likes him.
Pokomi, unlike the others, shows friendship and platonic love for Namero. During her time at the academy, due to being the top student, she had no one to talk to, but after witnessing Namero's abilities, she desired friendship. She constantly egged him on, which irritated him. However, there were times when he showed thanks for either her kindness or protection, such as when she tried to save him from being defeated by Bo-bobo's new super form.
Namero is well-respected by the members of the Maruhage Empire, and he actually gives them respect in return.
