- "The sun shined on a small island in the ocean.
Oh! A shaggy-haired guy with a bubbling pipe and drum came in dancing!" - ―Character Introduction[1]
Hushman, also stylized as HushMAN, is one of the characters from pop'n music portable 2.
Personality
Hushman is externally a timid young man. As someone who was stuck in a deserted island from Tropical Land, he struggled to have words come out of his mouth to any person he encountered. If upbeat music plays, Hushman indirectly has another personality taking over his body, making him sound much more coherent and cocky. The confident personality isn't even the real Hushman, whose spirit was temporarily outed, before the upbeat music fades away.
Plot Relevance to Party Mode
Before the events of Party Mode, Hushman was once a general and normal man who joined the pirate group via ship, before it crashed to the deserted island. Being the only inhabitant in the desert island, he slowly loses social skills and has his demeanor to be more ragged. After the duo, Mimi and Nyami encountered him, Hushman struggled to maintain his social interactions to other people, before finally speaking. Thanks to a random boat the three found, they escaped from the desert island after finding a treasure chest from the wrecked pirate ship, with the addition of Hushman being invited to the Marine Party.
After the party, Hushman's different demeanor possesses his body, which allows him to unlock the treasure chest with the key, revealing a blue Pop-kun Doll.
Character Information[1]
With summer being a day away, since Shio asked me whether I preferred the tropics or the cosmos, I went with a vacation in the tropics!
Hushman's charm points are the dreads that reach his feet and his well-done, burnt chocolate skin. He's just one person on the island in the far south - and he's living without a care in the world, playing a rhythm with his drum.
Out of all the different ideas we had, I initially settled on what appeared to be a human "dread teacher" for the final product. But because of the seemingly tropical atmosphere, I decided we didn't need the "teacher" part in the long run. We then came up with dreads just a smidgen away from reaching the feet. The other idea was his skin baked by the beach's sun rays just enough to look good!
And just as masaru and wac wished, I made him peek around through his hair in a cool place. Beneath those dreads was a handsome guy... Once the cute boy's glasses are taken off, what's behind can't be ignored!
Do your best and please enjoy his tropical vacation in his WIN animation♪
Appearance
Hushman is a dark-skinned, pipe-smoking built man in white-framed sunglasses with his ash-pink locs draping his body. He simply wears white shorts fastened with a belt composed of blue and pink beads ending in a rainbow-colored fabric. Ringing Hushman's ankle and wrists are bands of blue, green and red colors, along with a key around his neck.
Hushman's 2P colors turns both his skin and bubble pipe jet black, his dreads gray, and his sunglasses a white frame with blue lens. His shorts are white, linked to a white piece of fabric with the pink color scheme from tints to shades. Hushman's hand drum is cerulean blue with a light yellow top.
