PaRappa the Rapper

PaRappa the Rapper is the titular main character of PaRappa the Rapper. Donning with his trademark orange cap and microphone, PaRappa entertains crowds with his rapping skills while winning the heart of a flower girl named Sunny Funny.

Why He Rocks

 * 1) Every time PaRappa were to come across a situation where it's difficult, hilarious or whatever the heck else, all he has to do is believe in himself meaning that PaRappa has determination.
 * 2) His rapping stills are pretty impressive. Those songs PaRappa and his instructors compose during the game series turn out to be catchy to listen to.
 * 3) PaRappa is shown to do good deeds to other characters. For example, he recused some characters (Including Lammy, Katy and Ma-San) from a crazed mind controlled hairdresser octopus who was giving everyone afros made of noodles.
 * 4) His relationship towards Sunny Funny is legitimately reasonable. He doesn't just try way to hard getting Sunny Funny to love him, he still acts polite and expresses his true feelings to Sunny. Even General Potter (Sunny's dad) thinks PaRappa is good enough to be a boyfriend.
 * 5) When PaRappa gets something like learning how to do karate or getting a drivers licence, he mostly doesn't become a jackass since he still retains like status as likable character.
 * 6) While PaRappa is known for rapping, he knows how to defend himself. Sure, PaRappa may not look like a fighter. But he was still able to fight at will thanks to Chop Chop Master Onion's training. Just look at things like PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale.
 * 7) He shows an optimistic and positive attitude most of the time. He would even have a desire to be sociable.
 * 8) Even though PaRappa can defend himself as already mentioned, he also a good pacifist. In PaRappa the Rapper 2, he confronted Colonel Noodle and turned Colonel Noode into a good guy.
 * 9) PaRappa is good at not relying on other characters meaning that he can do things with all his might. One instance was when he was able to play Food Court while he dad mentioned that no one can help PaRappa.
 * 10) His iconic quote: "I gotta believe!"

Bad Qualities

 * 1) PaRappa can be naive at times like when he daydreams while accidentally breaking his dad's car.
 * 2) PaRappa did act immature in the beginning of PaRappa the Rapper 2 when he got extremely upset over Sunny Funny's noodles.
 * 3) PaRappa did felt unconsiderate to MilkCan as seen in Um Jammer Lammy like when he complained about he he always has to carry equipment, buy snacks, and give massages. Though this does not mean that PaRappa hates MilkCan.
