Mai Kawabanga, previously know as the Onbusuman, is a supporting character in the anime and manga Series Dandadan. She is the vengeful spirit of Rin Sawaki's childhood friend, who after dying in a car accident haunts her as misguided revenge for her death. After being reminded of her past and exorcised, she was converted into a guardian spirit bound to Rin, determined to see her become an idol.

History[]

Mai Kawabanga and Rin Sawaki became friends during their elementary school days, when Mai heard Rin sing and was amazed and they became determined to become idols one day. However, when the day of a talent show audition came and Mai and Rin, along with their other friends, planned to attend and practiced tirelessly to do so, however, when the day of the audition started getting closer Rin was torn between caring for her sick grandmother or her compromise with Mai, choosing the former and informing Mai she could not attend. This sparked an argument between the both with Mai calling Rin a traitor and Rin calling her idol dreams stupid.

On the day of the audition, both Rin and Mai were filled with regret for their actions, Mai crying and refusing to participate without Rin, which Mai's mother informs Rin of through the phone, and after being encouraged by her grandmother Rin decides to attend the audition. Mai and her mother decide to drive to Rin's place to pick her up, however, they are struck bu another car on their way, killing them both and filling Rin with regret until her highschool years.

Personality[]

As a child, Mai was a cheerful and friendly kid, making friends with other easily, however her most defining trait was he unwavering love and determination to become an idol, a goal which even caused her to snap at Rin, an event to which she showed regret for later after learning Rin was taking care of her sick grandmother.

As an Onbusuman, due to her passively absorbing nearby spirits, Mai became a rageful and vengeful spirit, desiring to kill Rin for thinking she was responsible for her death, however after being exorcised by Seiko's group and being cleansed of the negaative energy as well as regaining her memories, Mai is shown to be extremely remourseful of her actions, apologizing to Rin for badmouthing her in the past as well as trying to kill her, the two friends rekindling their frienship before Mai departs into the afterlife.

As a guardian spirit, Mai makes it clear that she's not at all like her human self, being extremely stubborn, sarcastic and extremely blunt, which can make her come off as rude on occasions. Mai is dead set on ensuring Rin becomes an idol, in spite of her aspirations to become a novelist, telling her that her life has no meaning if she doesn't become an idol.
