Villain Overview

♪She's Katie Ka-boom, Katie Ka-boom. She lives in a house with a garden in bloom. Her family knows that at anytime soon their little lady Katie goes... ka-boom!♪
~ Katie Ka-Boom theme song.
I'm not overreacting, I'm a teenager!
~ Katie Ka-Boom's official catchphrase due to her mental breakdown

Katie Ka-Boom is an antagonist in Animaniacs, being the main antagonist of one of the show's side segments titled Katie Ka-Boom. Though she isn’t inherently evil by design, she’s callous and self-absorbed enough to be a serious threat to those around her.

She was voiced by Laura Mooney.

Biography[]

Katie appears to be a beautiful sixteen-year-old girl dealing with the life of an average suburban teenager and, like most teenagers, is prone to over-dramatics, angst, random mood swings and egomania. Unfortunately for her family, Katie is capable of shape-shifting into large, vicious monsters (whose forms usually relate to the cause of her anger) and generating natural disasters when she gets angry.

While having a daughter/sister that stresses over things like driving tests and dates is normal, Katie's family know to go into full lockdown when such incidents occur. Katie's mood swings transform her into various monstrous forms and herald explosions, tremors and energy blasts. The cause of Katie's supernatural powers is never touched upon and really just creative license given for how teenagers get.

Her parents and brother appear to be normal humans, although her mother describes Katie's outbursts as a phase, meaning she’ll grow out of it. This could mean one or both of her parents had similar transformations when they were her age, but that would also mean Katie's brother may go through the same phase when he becomes a teenager. Issue 51 of the Animaniacs comic features her older cousin Tiffany who shares her overreactive and hot tempered personality and ability to transform when angry, indicating that both traits are common among Kaboom women. Regardless of cause, Katie is a menace to her entire neighborhood, often with her parents and brother at ground zero of Katie's acts of destruction. Yet for some reason, none of her neighbors seem to really notice or pay much mind to said destruction when they come around soon after Katie calms down.

Personality[]

Being a typical teenage girl, she’s very dramatic and emotionally difficult. When she's in her normal state, she's actually is a very beautiful and nice girl. Though when she goes "ka-boom", she turns into a destructive monster, literally.

Katie doesn't seem to be aware of her exploding and turning into a monster after she has blown up, but she might just not come on it. Though, in her first appearance she is shown to be in a somewhat dazed state after transforming which could imply she isn’t entirely aware of her transformations. During her transformation she'll deny her parents statements that she's a monster, saying "I'm not overreacting, I'm a teenager!". After each transformation she returns to her original personality and goes about her day either oblivious too or ignoring the destruction around her.

In the Animaniacs comic, issue 39, Katie says "Oopsie" after one of her infamous transformations destroys her house, indicating that she may be aware that she causes destruction around her when angry to some extent. At the same time, she is shown to be capable of controlling her temper when at school, maintaining her composure even after having a rotten day up until returning home, parodying how teenagers will act more bratty at home compared to in public. This issue also reveals that after her tantrums "Acme Quickie Home Repair" fixes her house, which could be a reason why she may not see her tantrums as a big issue. In issue 22 she is shown to like kids but can loose her temper when dealing with bratty ones, resulting in similar destructive outbursts that she has at home. Issue 51 shows that Katie doesn't get along well with her cousin Tiffany, Ironically because their personalities are so similar.

Appearance[]

In human form, Katie is a teenage girl. She appears to be 16 years old and has a short blonde bob. She has a light blue shirt that somewhat hangs from her shoulders, pink pants and blue slip on shoes. She also wears pink lipstick on her lips.

Before she changes into a monster her eyes glow, her voice changes and she grows. In monster form she seems to be able to change into different forms. As one monster she looks like a green monster and her clothes are ragged, but she has also been seen as a fiery monster. More often than not, the transformation is related to the upsetting situation, such as a giant telephone monster when her friend calls her and her dad forgets to tell her the message, a Big Daddy Roth-esque hotrod monster during a driving lesson, a giant green monster with a huge pimple and a beast in a prom dress for when arguing about Katie's curfew for staying out late during prom night. However, after she explodes, she’s fine and her clothes are unaffected while the rest of her family and nearby surrounding is completely ruined.
