TwinBee Wiki

A self-proclaimed mad scientist genius who stalks TwinBee and his friends on a daily basis and attacks them whenever he gets a chance. He and Dr. Cinnamon have been rivals since childhood, and it has long been his dream to reign as the world's greatest scientist. He is the creator of the ZakoBee Army, Seeds, and Salute. He has also invented many battle robots, but he has always failed because he is too lazy. He spent all his money to create Black Warumon, and now he is working hard part-time. Incidentally, Dr. Warumon's favorite food is Miaoshuuken's super-spicy levanilla ramen with gyoza.
~ Translated description from TwinBee PARADISE in Donburi Shima

Dr. Warumon (ワルモン博士 Warumon-hakase?) is a character in the TwinBee series. He is a tall and sinister old scientist and inventor from Donburi Island and a longtime rival of Dr. Cinnamon. As such, he can often be seen devising all sorts of plans –often of evil nature– that directly oppose those from Cinnamon, all this while also seeking to gain fortune and admiration in the process. One of his most well known achievements is the creation of the ZakoBees, an army of bumblebee androids that do his bidding without question and which are direct opposites of the bumblebee androids from the TwinBee Team. Among these is ZakoBee No. 004, also known as "Bee-chan", who acts a his main lieutenant, most loyal minion, and almost like his only friend in the world.

Dr. Warumon made his first appearance as the main antagonist of the 1994 Super Famicom/Super Nintendo game Pop'n TwinBee: Rainbow Bell Adventures, and since then he has replayed this role in most following installments, becoming the series' overall main antagonist, especially along the extensive TwinBee PARADISE subseries.

While he still acts as the main antagonist in the TwinBee PARADISE anime, he takes a more comedic role this time around and is instead featured as a tragic loser who must take all sorts of odd jobs to obtain the necessary means to carry on with his more ambitious projects. He appears as an old acquaintance/rival of both Cinnamon and Mardock, the latter whose role is also toned down from his antagonistic role in the games.

He is voiced by Yukimasa Kishino.

History[]

Rival to Dr. Shinamon, aiming to take over the world with the zacopy robot army he built himself.
~ Description from Pop'n TwinBee: Rainbow Bell Adventures

Dr. Warumon spends his time building armies of evil bumblebee clones called ZakoBees and trying to take over the world. He also dabbles in foreign politics, provoking coups, that sort of thing. He is always thwarted by the TwinBee Team, of course. Probably the most evil man in the universe. He also has a number of airships which invariably end up getting destroyed.

He has been known to make alliances with Dr. Mardock and Archduke Nonsense.

While generally seen scheming evil plans, Warumon can often be seen partaking with Cinnamon and Mardock, especially throughout the various media that comprise the TwinBee PARADISE series, where all three of these old men carry on an uneasy friendship that frequently have them arguing over the most trivial things.

Appearance[]

Warumon is mostly bald, with white hair still growing on the sides and back of the head and pointing up, resembling devilish horns. He fashions a monocle on his right eye and can usually be seen wearing a big, dark blue cape. All these features in conjunction give him an overall ominous and malevolent appearance.

Appearances[]

TwinBee series[]

  • Pop'n TwinBee: Rainbow Bell Adventures (1994 - SNES): First appearance of Dr. Warumon in the series, where he acts as the main antagonist of the game. He steals Princess Melora's Rainbow Bells —magical items with which she keeps peace across the Universe— with the intention to rule overall with it. Without her bells, the Princess slowly starts to fade away into nothingness, but with her last ounce of strength she manages to send a distress signal to her friends, the TwinBee Team. The heroes heed the call and set off to Planet Mel to stop Warumon and his army of ZakoBees. In the end, the evil doctor is defeated, the Rainbow Bells are returned to Melora, and peace is secured once again across the Universe.

Before she is imprisoned, however, the Queen manages to send her little fairy friend, Flute, to seek help. Flute comes across the TwinBee Team during one of their routine patrols and explains them what happened. The heroes set forth to Wonderland and eventually find out that it was Warumon the one behind all the hostilities.
