Background

Bobobo Wei Qi came to Galan City to investigate the disappearance of a friend from many years earlier. When his clues ran dry, he remained in the city and became a teacher at Ash Academy, where he taught numerous students with Jessica's assistance. 741 774

Before settling in Galan, he gained a reputation under the title Blue Dove. His body was altered through a special Transformation Magic associated with Potion Wizards, allowing him to raise his power rapidly through Potions. 754

His first conflict with Richard began when Harry and Kathy brought Richard's philosophical lessons into Ash Academy. Believing Richard was leading his students astray, Bobobo confronted him, only to be unable to answer Richard's questions about time, the world's edge, life, and consciousness. He spent the following night desperately searching Ash Academy's books for answers. 740 741

Determined to prove that his teaching was superior, Bobobo equipped himself and challenged Richard to a duel above Blue Lake Manor. Richard's superior range, speed, and Strange Arrows forced Bobobo to request a draw after exhausting his spell items. 746 747 748 749

Appearance

Bobobo initially appears to be a young Wizard of around thirty, wearing a clean, elegant bright-blue robe. When preparing for battle, he wears a more ornate sky-blue Wizard robe embroidered with gold and silver patterns. 739 746

• His battle equipment includes gemstone rings, rune-engraved bracelets, a pendant, and a gray Short Staff. 746
• His eyes can transform into a three-pupiled pattern when using Spirit Vision Eye. 748
• A Potion-induced burst of power causes all of his hair to burn away, leaving him temporarily bald. 923 924
• He later uses the Wild Hair Evil Force Growth Spell, causing grass-green hair to grow uncontrollably from his scalp. 944 945
• He eventually recovers and wears a bearskin hat to conceal his hairless head. 932

Personality

Bobobo is proud, theatrical, and deeply concerned with preserving his image as a knowledgeable and powerful teacher. He initially treats Richard's influence over Harry and Kathy as a personal challenge, then attempts to hide both his failure in debate and his defeat in battle from Jessica. 740 741 750

Despite his vanity, he is persistent and resourceful. He will endure injuries, consume large quantities of Potions, and improvise under pressure rather than surrender easily. His curiosity also repeatedly draws him into investigations surrounding the Truth Society and his missing friend. 755 756 774

He is unusually sensitive about his hair loss. Being called bald can provoke him into reckless displays of strength, including his confrontation with Giant Tree Xi Mu. 929 930
