"Nothing is as precious as smiles! Tell a joke wherever you walk!"
- Bittergiggle
Overview[]
Bittergiggle, also known as Case 17 or The Jester, is a mascot at Banban’s Kindergarten. He is the main antagonist of Garten of Banban IV and major ally in Garten of Banban VI.
Personality[]
Bittergiggle is a very energetic jester who wants nothing more than to make someone’s day with his jokes. He can sometimes be over the top, especially when he goes insane from isolation and lack of fulfillment of his purpose to tell jokes. He can still be somewhat calm and thoughtful despite his energetic personality, bonding with those around him.
Appearance[]
Normal[]
Bittergiggle appears as a humanoid creature split into two parts. His right side is frowning, corrugated and purple[1] apart from a green foot and a spiky green shape around the eye. His left is smiling and smooth with the same colors swapped around, and a rounder shape around the eye.
Hellish[]
Bittergiggle's Hellish form is dark grey with purple veins, eyes, and teeth due to being Naughtified, but his head is split in half into a giant mouth with sharp teeth and a large tongue. His mouth is bigger and more exaggerated with rough stretched edges. His bumpy side is bumpier on all sides with small creases through it, creating a more veiny and exaggerated appearance. His other side is smooth but ballooned up with smaller veins being visible.
Gameplay[]
Garten of Banban III[]
Bittergiggle is first seen in Garten of Banban III, but only as his depiction on a half-burnt piece of paper that can be found after defeating Tamataki & Chamataki in the Dragon Fight Room. This paper displays Bittergiggle's Depiction, along with Zolphius, and Tamataki & Chamataki. His name had yet to be revealed.
Garten of Banban IV[]
Bittergiggle makes his true appearance in Garten of Banban IV, serving as main antagonist. He truly first appears in a dark corner of the Housing Sector station, backing off and disappearing when approached. In the Ventilation Sector, the player can find the the mural for Bittergiggle, putting a name to the face. When the player enters the room to the right, the door shuts, separating the player from Sheriff Toadster and leaving them in complete darkness. Once the Sheriff is off to figure out how to open the door, the front lights in the room suddenly turn on. A small "hungry snake" is illuminated on the other side of the room, asking for food. When the player comes close, the "snake" revealed to be the right hand of Bittergiggle. He chases the player until Sheriff Toadster gets the door open and hits Bittergiggle with a "toadstar," causing him to retreat. Sheriff Toadster explains that this is the same "jester" he'd spoken of.
Bittergiggle doesn't appear again until the player reaches the Kittysaurus Room in the Employee Exercise Sector. Bittergiggle can be seen standing in the middle, but runs into the left door when the player gets too close. The door at the front then opens, and Kittysaurus comes out to fight the player. After the player defeats Kittysaurus and completes the Queen Bouncelia Mission, they enter a room to collect an elevator part, but Bittergiggle traps them inside. While trapped, Bittergiggle starts his monologue about his jokes and his determination to make Queen Bouncelia laugh, completely ignoring that The Naughty Ones will escape if this happens. He then realizes Sheriff Toadster is occupied because of the player, and quickly leaves to reach Queen Bouncelia.
After the player escapes the room they were trapped in, they visit the Housing Sector throne room, however, Bittergiggle and Kittysaurus confront Queen Bouncelia and Little Beak. Bittergiggle then explains that he is here to deliver his jokes, but this causes Queen Bouncelia to jump down from the top ledge, accidentally causing Little Beak to fall into some givanium. Little Beak transforms into a hulking monstrosity and fights Kittysaurus off camera. Bittergiggle talks more about his "jokes" before telling one of his own. Even though the joke he told was terrible, Queen Bouncelia laughs anyway, causing The Naughty Ones to escape. Sheriff Toadster then appears to escort the player to the elevator, but Bittergiggle begins chasing them. Fortunately, Sheriff Toadster and the player make it to safety. He was just know as "The Jester"
Personality[]
In Garten of Banban IV, Bittergiggle is a cunning and relatively unhinged jester that wants nothing more and nothing less than to make Queen Bouncelia laugh. He adamantly refuses to heed the warnings of what would happen if he were to succeed. He refers to himself as "The Ultimate Jokester", but raves on about how he can't even do the one thing he was made to do; be actually funny. In summary he's self centered, ambitious, and totally obsessed with living up to his self-proclaimed title.
Garten of Banban VI[]
Bittergiggle appears as a ally. He is seen first in the introduction sector, being regretful for the action that he has done in the previous game. When the video in the room starts he tells the player to hide in the room and not to open the door for sir Dadadoo. After pressing the button he says that he will think of a joke to tell sheriff Toadster on the way back. Bittergiggle intervenes after sir Dadadoo attacks Banban in the potentiality sector. With the help of the player, he fixes the four locks to get access to the office with the third button.
Personality[]
In Garten of Banban VI, Bittergiggle takes a turn, claiming to regret his actions from the previous game. He becomes an ally to the protagonist and starts to be portrayed as less reckless. As shown when the Player, and Banban were ambushed by Sir dadadoo. Near the end of the game during The Naughty Ones chase, he throws himself into the abyss with them in hopes that, as in his words, "this will be his one chance to have an audience".
Garten of Banban VII[]
Bittergiggle appears as a secondary antagonist. He is appears in The Motel. After Player goes to highest floor he scares a citizen and chases Player in his Hellish Naughtified form on the Rooftop. When Player and Sheriff Toadster hide behind the door, Bittergiggle breaks the door and attacks the Sheriff, but he accidentally kills Bittergiggle. Luckily, Toadster is quick enough to tell his friend a joke. Bittergiggle doesn't get it at first, but understood it and laughs in satisfaction before perishing, peacefully making amends to not only the player and the Sheriff, but also Queen Bouncelia.Story[]
Before 2016 | Event 7.5[]
Syringeon was created to help with the dangerous surgical procedures needed to bring cases to life. But due to Syringeon having one of the lowest KAS scores they began looking for potential replacement concepts and deemed him permanently not ready for presentation.
Before 2016 | Event 14[]
Sheriff Toadster is created using the genomes of a human donor and a frog donor. He only acts like a simple toad, hopping, and ribbiting around.
Before 2016 | Event 23[]
The scientists at the kindergarten are informed that they must abandon development on Cases 4, 9, 14, & 17 aka Syringeon, Sheriff Toadster, Queen Bouncelia, and Bittergiggle. So they decide to dump the 4 abandoned experiments in level -5 of the Kindergarten. In the lower level they find Sir Dadadoo, another abandoned experiment. Then they shift all resources dedicated to Syringeon to Stinger Flynn due to his much higher levels of intelligence.
2016 | Event 25[]
Queen Bouncelia, and Sir Dadadoo begin creating their own cases after Syringeon gives them the information on how to. With the help of the other kingdom members Sir Dadadoo begins creating a plan to overthrow management and take control of the kindergarten. Shortly after the plan is created an expedition is sent down to their level that reveals that they have been creating sub cases, aka ‘The Mutants Below’. The expedition also finds out that they are planning a rebellion, the expedition team gives everyone except Sir Dadadoo the choice of doing their rebellion and destroying everything they’ve achieved or not. Case 18 (Sir Dadadoo) was not asked this question due to him being very for the bloody battle a rebellion would bring.
2016 | Event 26[]
The Kingdom attempted to launch a rebellion against the Kindergarten's management. This plan failed, but instead of backing down and sparing the other Cases from the chaos, Sir Dadadoo used Queen Bouncelia's Scepter to create an army of Naughty Ones and tried to use them to overthrow the kindergarten as well as possessing the minds of some Cases, known as naughtification. All of the other kingdom members refused to go along with his evil ways of completing their plan, and instead turned on him and stole back Queen Bouncelia's Scepter and used it to seal Sir Dadadoo and the rest of the Naughty Ones inside of Queen Bouncelia's pouch. Sir Dadadoo held a grudge against those of the Kindergarten, especially Queen Bouncelia and Syringeon.
2016 | Event 30[]
It was planned that six cases (being Stinger Flynn, Banban, Banbaleena, Captain Fiddles, Opila Bird, and Jumbo Josh)[2] would be present on Bring a Friend Day, but many were behind in development, with the only cases ready for presentation being Case 12G (Captain Fiddles) and Case 13 (Stinger Flynn). Despite this, the six chosen cases were brought to the Outer Sector to be presented to the children, their friends, parents, workers, and the company owners. During this time, the cases present acted as they were supposed to. Uthman Adam and Weverly Mason were inside of the facility during the event, but planned to sneak out and board a flight to Madrid, Spain as they suspected that the Ball Pit was likely to collapse under the weight of the children on it.[3] Sooner than expected, the Ball Pit collapsed under the weight, killing the children in the ball pit, and setting off a chain reaction that would destroy the facility.
Zolphius awakened in the abyss, Banban transformed into his Hellish form, and the animalistic instincts of the rest of the mascots were triggered causing them to break out of their cells and to go on a murderous rampage after the children, workers, and parents.[4][5] It also caused something dangerous to escape deep on level -4 of the kindergarten, as mentioned by one worker left on floor -4 in the Employee Training Sector. [6] Queen Bouncelia and Sheriff Toadster also heard the screams, and Sheriff Toadster witnessed some of the chaos above, making him believe his friends had gone mad and thus labelled them as criminals. A surgery in the Arboreal/Aquatic Sector was also taking place during Bring a Friend Day, preformed on Nabnaleena with the doctors completing everything except the Givanium injections. However, before they could complete the final steps to bring Nabnaleena to life, they heard the screams from above. Nabnab broke out of his containment, causing the doctors to abort the surgery and eventually suffering an unknown fate.
Stinger Flynn did not participate in the rampage, instead saving the living children from other monsters and taking them and Mason deeper into the facility.[7] Stinger Flynn took the group to a variety of areas, and at one point threw a party to distract the children.[8] A while later, Zolphius appeared and Mason told the children to not talk to him, and at some point after Stinger Flynn left.[9] [10] It is unkown what happened to Uthman Adam.
