Main Villains

The Whole Trio

• Balloon Belly: All of them get this when they eat a lot. Except for Horrorman, because, well, he's a skeleton.
  • Whenever they get a big belly, this can also rip their costumes if they're in disguise as someone else.
• Big Eater: Oh boy, do they have a big craving for eating food.
• Butt-Monkey/ The Chew Toy: Oh boy, they suffer a lot of this big time.
• Master of Disguise: They can easily disguise themselves as an innocent bystander or another character.
  • Wholesome Crossdresser: They can even go as far as crossdressing as the opposite gender!
• Terrible Trio: Baikinman is considered the leader, while the latter are the henchmen (though they can be considered equals).
• A Twinkle in the Sky: Pretty much every time they get punched by Anpanman towards the end of the episode.

Baikinman/Bacteriaman (ばいきんまん)

Voiced by: Ryūsei Nakao (Japanese), Michael Kesser (English), Eduardo Garza (Latin American Spanish)

Debut: 1

The main antagonist of the series. An alien from another planet, his egg followed the same shooting stars that would give birth to Anpanman of Earth.

• Adaptational Early Appearance: In the original books, Baikinman was introduced into the series in 1979, six years after the books were made. In both the anime and Greek adaptations, he was in the show from the very start.
• Art Evolution: His antenna became smaller, and his sclera became whiter.
• Ash Face: Has this a few times. Best example was in "Let's Play: ABC" after he drew a dragon and it burnt his face.
• Bad Santa: He pulls this a few times in the Christmas specials.
• Bizarre Alien Biology: Baikinman's teeth function rather strangely. It looks as if he is always grimacing and talking through his teeth (he is never seen not showing them), but it's almost ambiguous as to whether they are actually typical teeth or rather a mouth area resembling teeth; they move rather flexibly when he speaks. At one point he is seen blowing a trombone with his teeth (and puffed out cheeks coming from them!)◊
• Cartoony Eyes: He has a slight hint of pink in his eyes.
  • Technicolor Eyes: There was even a case where in some early episodes, he had magenta irises.
• Cool Starship
• Crazy-Prepared: He'll always have his UFO ready whenever his identity is found out.
• Deadpan Snarker
• The Determinator: He will never give up on his quest to defeat Anpanman...it is literally his biggest motivation for living!
• Dick Dastardly Stops to Cheat: Did this in the 2010 film short when he was in a race with the others.
• Even Evil Has Loved Ones: He does care for Dokinchan as a sister.
• Evil Laugh: HAHIHUHEHO!!!
• Evil Knockoff: Had one in the 2009 film short.
• Foil: Baikinman is pretty much the polar opposite of Anpanman in almost every respect. While Anpanman is kind, polite and humble, Baikinman is mean, rude and arrogant. Anpanman feeds hungry people part of his head and takes pleasure in helping people, Baikinman steals other people's lunch and takes pleasure in spoiling their fun.
• Forgot Flanders Could Do That: Baikinman can fly using his little wings (though not too much), but he rarely uses them due to him relying on his machines that viewers don't realize this. He would often forget about it until it gets into his head.
• Gadgeteer Genius: Why else would he have his spaceship and all of his machinery other than to defeat Anpanman?
• Gratuitous English: He often says "Okay!", Spicy!", "Chance!", and "Let's Go!".
  • Language Barrier: While he does understand English, he has trouble trying to speak it. This is proven in the Edutainment specials.
• The Grinch/ The Scrooge: Inverted. While he doesn't hate Christmas, he does like ruining it for others.
• Guys are Slobs: Other than his hatred for baths, he doesn't really keep his lair really organized and tidied up.
• Harmless Villain: Although he uses violence, he never seems to have a desire to kill.
  • Not-So-Harmless Villain: However, he does become like this when he gets super powerful.
• Hates Baths: He doesn't like taking baths, which shrinks him to a tiny fly and changes color into white instead of black. Though he doesn't seem to have a problem of washing his hands in the edutainment specials.
• I Choose to Stay: After saving the Princess Powder Snow at the end of the 2005 film, she asks Baikinman if he wants to join her in the kingdom. He chooses not to.
• Jagged Mouth: His mouth is constantly in a zigzagged shape.
• Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Despite being a jerk, he can often show his nice side.
• Karma Houdini: He never gets any punishment for any of the damage he's done. The only punishment he mostly gets is getting punched by Anpanman or any of the other heroes.
• Kick the Dog: He'll often be a backstabber to whoever he's trying to convince that Anpanman is the bad guy. Like when he kicked Panpon off of his UFO after he was done rusting Uncle Jam's oven.
• Large Ham: He can be quite dramatic and is almost theatrical in his speech and actions. Word of God has also confirmed that the purple dot on his chest is actually a microphone to make his voice sound even louder!
• Literal Surveillance Bug: He uses one to spy on what Anpanman and the Bakery staff to see what's going on.
  • Mind-Control Device: He also made a few of them as mind control devices, like what he did on Tin Kid.
• Made of Explodium: Pretty much every time he gets punched, his ship explodes into pieces.
• Meaningful Name: Baikin is Japanese for "bacteria" and "germs".
• Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: In one episode, he and Dokinchan found a secret treasure in the middle of the desert. They poked it, only to unleash some underground water which created an oasis. The main heroes actually thanked him for finding it.
  • Another example was when Motchi-kun was heading the wrong way to Oshiruko-chan's house and he showed him the right path. Though that was done on purpose since he likes Oshiruko-chan's dishes.
• Overly-Long Tongue: Uses this either when he eats or as a weapon.
• Red Eyes, Take Warning: If you look closely, his sclera has a pink-ish hue. Of course, he’s very evil.
• Red Oni, Blue Oni: In the edutainment episodes, he's the red to Anpanman's blue.
• Remembered I Could Fly: There are a few times where he'll fall off of something, but he remembers that he has wings.
• Secret Identity Apathy: He knows Naganegiman's real identity, but he doesn't plan to reveal it to everyone. Mostly because he knows that he'll always defeat him, no matter what.
• Shrink Ray: He built one in an episode where he plans to use it to shrink his nemesis, only to get shrunk himself thanks to Horrorman.
• Smoke Out: He uses this to get away.
• Soap Opera Rapid Aging Syndrome: Similar to Anpanman's first appearance, he started out as a infant/toddler until the second half of the episode. Though somewhat justified since he's an alien.
• Take Over the World: His original main goal was to make the whole world get infected by germs. However, he seems to stray away from this plan after his debut.
• Temporary Love Interest: He'll often have a crush on certain female characters, but forget about them by the next episode.
• The Tooth Hurts: Prior to Mushibakinman's debut, Baikinman would often try to give people toothaches. Best example was in Hamigakiman's debut episode.
  • Baikinman would often give himself a toothache, either because of Mushibakinman or when his teeth just lacked brushing. This happened to him in one of the edutainment specials when he and the other kids were eating lunch and they're about to brush their teeth. Anpanman warned Baikinman to brush his teeth, but he ignored this because he wants to play. However, he felt a pain in his mouth, and Hamigakiman came to help.
  • Terrible Trio: With both Dokinchan and Horrorman. Also with his brothers Aokinman and Akakinman.
• Villain Respect: Did this to Banna (who is the main protagonist of the 2012 film). Despite this, Baikinman's an antagonist while Banna is a protagonist
• Villain Song: Has a few of them, but his most recognizable one is "Ikuzo! Baikinman".
• Vitriolic Best Buds: With Horrorman.
• Vocal Evolution: Similar to Anpanman, except in the opposite way. He went from having a gruff voice, to eventually having his current screechy voice.
• Weaksauce Weakness: Originally in his early appearances, he usually gets defeated by being cleaned with soap or toothpaste, which makes him shrink. This was later changed for being punched, which is more famous. Though they brought back his original weakness in the more recent episodes.
• Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?: There was one episode where he did actually want to smash Anpanman's head while he was napping in a meadow. Unfortunately, this plan didn't work as he started to feel sleepy as well.
• Wings Do Nothing: Somewhat subverted. He can use his wings for flight, but not for a long time due to him being weak.

Dokinchan(ドキンちゃん)

Voiced by: Hiromi Tsuru (Japanese, original; debut story - 2017); Rei Sakuma (Japanese, temporary replacement following Tsuru's death; 22 December 2017); Mina Tominaga (Japanese, official replacement; 2018 onward), María Fernanda Morales (Latin American Spanish)

Debut: 13a

Baikinman's female partner in crime.

• Ambiguous Situation: In episode 759b when she met Furudokei-san, they revisited her memories of when she first fell in love with Shokupanman and after freeing him, Past Dokinchan hid behind the bushes and reveals she bonked herself on a tree. Later uring the fight, Dokichan was able to top Baikinman from attacking Shokupanman. But it was never stated if that Dokinchan that stopped him was the one that hid behind the bushes or it was the future Dokinchan. Noy helping the fact that it never states during Furudokei-san's time travelling if they can or not interact.
• Art Evolution: Her eyes were first elliptical, but quickly evolved into half circles.
• Balloon Belly: Like Baikinman, she often has this, despite the fact she's trying to lose weight.

• Clingy Jealous Girl: She can often be like this if she sees another girl with Shokupanman.
  • She was also like towards Princess Kuroyuki when she ruined her summerhouse and stole Baikinman from her hands.
• Cool Starship
• Dirty Coward: When she's with Baikinman on his evil schemes, she often flakes out and throws him under the bus when things go wrong or when she senses Anpanman is going to step in.
• Drop-In Character: She often appears at the last minute in a battle if she doesn't appear at all.
• Early Installment Character-Design Difference:
  • In her debut in the picture books, she had a taller, lankier appearance than many other characters. But since the anime, her proportions became shorter and squatter to match everyone else.
  • She also used to carry a spear that was quickly dropped.
• Even Evil Has Standards: Other than her love for Shokupanman, she is not a complete slob like Bakinman and likes things clean.
• Evil Counterpart:
  • To Bakato. As Batako is very kind, Dokinchan
• Fiery Redhead: While she doesn't have hair (wigs don't count), she is red, and does have a fiery background whenever she's pissed off.
• The Girl Who Fits This Slipper: Somewhat defied. Towards the end of one episode where she's in disguise as a crayon princess, she drops her red heel in the snow. Shokupanman picks it up, but he never manages to find out what happened to her.
• Jerkass to One: Though Dokinchan acts like a nice person to everyone else, she is really mean to Baikinman. She can be grateful if he does or gets something for her, but when he doesn't, she doesn't even want to hear why or what happened. And boy, he really gets in a lot of trouble even if he tried but somehow didn't succeed.
• Meaningful Name: Doki-doki is a Japanese onomatopoeia for a rapid heartbeat.
• Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: Usually lets Shokupanman go if Baikinman's captures him. Then again, what do you expect from her?
  • This doesn't really count for her if she's the main focus of the episode.
  • She also did this in her debut episode where she threw her spear at Anpanman to shrink him, only to accidentally hit him with the blue side, which made him grow larger.
• Parental Favoritism: While not related, she's Baikin Sennin's favorite more than Baikinman.
• Playful Cat Smile: She'll often pull a mischievous cat smile whenever she sees Shokupanman.
• Screw This, I'm Outta Here: She tends to do this at the climax of a fight if she either feels defeated, hungry, or just just doesn't feel like it.
• Spoiled Brat: Though she is not rich or anything, she is demanding, impatient and goes on a rampage when she doesn't get what she wants. She knows she can get Baikinman to do anything for her, though he usually fails or it's somehow not good enough for her anyway.
• Sweet Tooth: She loves snacking on sweets. So much that Baikinman made her a giant cake for her birthday, around ten times the size of herself!
  • Terrible Trio: With both Baikinman and Horrorman.
• Tsundere: A bit more complex since she clearly has both a type A and B, but she uses both personalities for different people.
• Vague Age: While her sister Kokinchan is a child, it's unknown what Dokin's exact age is. She would be at least late teen/early adult.
• Villainesses Want Heroes/ Villainous Crush: She has an unreciprocated crush on Shokupanman. She even has merchandise on him!
• Violently Protective Girlfriend: She'll go like this whenever something bad happens to Shokupanman.
• Vocal Evolution: Her voice became softer in the later episodes.
• Would Hurt a Child: Though she never intentionally intends to kill them (remember, this is a kids show), she does point a weapon at the kid characters if Anpanman does try to hit Baikinman. This is just to weaken Anpanman so Baikinman can attack back.
  • Wouldn't Hurt a Child: Whenever the episodes focuses on the villains, it shows that Dokinchan wouldn't let Baikinman attack a kid. Best example was when they were taking care of Baby Donuts.

Horrorman/ (ホラーマン)

Voiced by: Kaneta Kimotsuki (Japanese, original; debut story - 2016), Kazuki Yao (Japanese, 2017 onwards) Kazuya Tatekabe (Japanese, Red Steel Horrorman), Tetsuo Mizutori (Japanese, Blue Steel Horrorman), Cesar Beltran (Latin American Spanish)

A friendly skeleton who works at Baikinman's lair. Due to him originally being a movie character and later part of the anime, he has two different backstories. In the 1991 movie, he was a mentor to Chibigon and teaches the dragon how to use his powers. In the anime, Baikinman and Dokinchan discovered Horrorman in a cave as they were trying to find an opponent to defeat Anpanman. And like with some characters at the time, Baikinman tricks Horrorman into thinking that Anpanman is a bad guy. But this backfired due to Horrorman's obliviousness, as he sees Anpanman as a chil guy. Despite this, he hangs out with the villains due to his affection with Dokinchan.

• Ace Pilot: Despite not having a UFO, he's pretty good at controlling Baikinman's.
• Affably Evil: Despite being a skeleton and working for Baikinman, he's very friendly towards others.
• Ambiguously Human: Unlike Baikinman and Dokinchan who are aliens, Horrorman is a skeleton, but it's unknown if he was human at one point due to how the series claims that human characters are fairies.
• Ascended Extra: He originally appeared in the third film who used to reside in Dragon Island with Chibigon. He then appeared in the television series in episode 159.
• Bootstrapped Leitmotif: His basoon theme was actually Chocolatepanman's theme, who originally appeared the year before and another character Kaneta Kimotsuki voiced.
• Character Development: In his original appearance, he was a side character who was a Jerk with a Heart of Gold towards Chibigon. After he joins the villain's side, he ironically became much nicer than before.
• Chest Insignia: His two crossed bones on his shirt. Also an "S" when he turns superhuman.

• Cool Big Bro: He's like this towards Horako and Poppo-chan.
• Dem Bones: Well, he IS a living skeleton.
• Flanderization: He's become more obsessed with trying to win Dokinchan's heart since his debut in the television series.
• "I Am" Song: He has a song called "Horrorman Mecha Network Cha Cha", which starts off with a hard rock guitar riff, but then changes into a Jamaican-style music.
  • Leitmotif: Pretty much whenever he shows up, a instrumental version of the song will play. Here, the oboe will play the parts Horrorman sang in the song.
• Lethal Chef: While he's not a bad cook, he was like this when he was learning to cook pasta with Aunt Pasta. He eventually gets better at the end.
• Literal Split Personality: Had this when he went inside Bakinman's cloning machine.
• Mistaken Identity: Did this with Shokupanman when Baikinman decided to make him look identical.
• Mysterious Past: Unlike Baikinman and Dokinchan where they reveal where they came from, we don't know much about Horrorman's backstory. The closest we have is him being a mentor to Chibigon, but that's only in the movie canon and not in the show itself. In the 2007 film short, Horako claims that Horrorman was a prince at one point, but because of how she is a Unreliable Narrator, this might not be true.
• Nightmare Face: Pulled this a few times.
• Promotion to Opening Titles: Since the fourth opening.
• Pulling Themselves Together: Every time he falls apart, he always has to put himself back together.
  • Losing Your Head: If his head gets detached from his body, his body starts having a mind of its own.
• Real Men Wear Pink: He wears this whenever he's cooking in the kitchen.
• Red Oni, Blue Oni: His two clones were like this. His Red clone is a brute, while his Blue clone is soft and a strategist.
• Stalker with a Crush: Towards Dokinchan.
• Standing Between the Enemies: This happened to him when he was caught between Hamigakiman and Mushibaikinman.
• Those Two Guys: With Baikinman.
  • Terrible Trio: With Baikinman and Dokinchan.
• Took a Level in Badass: In some episodes, he turns into a muscular buff who can run fast and carry things that he normally can't carry. This is only temporary.
• Throw the Dog a Bone: Whenever he's the main focus of an episode, he'll usually give something to Baikinman and Dokinchan regardless of their actions. Like when he made Dokinchan a candle that's shaped like her head.
• Verbal Tic: He usually says "hora".
• Vitriolic Best Buds: With Baikinman.

Debut: 140b (Anime)

A small germ character whose main motivation is to give people cavities. He first shows up when he invaded Baikinman's lair to take some sweets, with Baikinman not very happy with it until Mushibakinman almost attack him with his blade. Baikinman tells him that they can work together to stop Hamigakiman and give the entire school toothaches, but this was foiled by Anpanman after helping Hamigakiman, and Baikinman was given a toothache by Mushibakinman. Despite that, he works with Baikinman from time to time when they want to take down their enemies.

• Meaningful Name: Mushibakin is Japanese for the germs that cause cavities.

Debut: 26a

An alien hermit who lives on top of high mountains who comes from the same species as Baikinman. He often give Baikinman words of advice on how to defeat his nemesis, but because of how arrgoant Baikinman is and the combination of him being a jerk towards him regardless, this doesn't always work out.

After Baikinman was defeated for the upteenth time, he shouts at the sky on how he can defeat Anpanman and gets called out by a unfamilar voice as a strobe of light strikes down towards him. The light reveals itsel to a hermit as Baikin Sennin and tells him that he can help teach Baikinman to defeat Anpanman, but refuses and tries to smash the hermit with a hammer. Though the hermit beats him to it and laughs sinisterly about Baikinman being unskilled. Reluantcly, Baikinman decides to go into training with the hermit by collecting firewood for his spa and giving him massages. Though this doesn't last as he gets swooned over by Dokinchan's voice and takes her for a ride on his flying cloud. Baikinman decides to learn the transformation spell that was chained to the wall and sneaks away from Baikin Sennin's place and learns to use the spell to turn himself into a pig. He tries to trick Batako that he's hungry so he can attack the bakery, but because the spell didn't transform his tail, Anpanman finds out and tries to get away. After having trouble on learning the spell, Baikinman figures out on cloning himself to stop Anpanman. But this was foiled by Currypanman as he uses a net between some trees to slingshot the swarm away.

Hiyari first met Baikinman and Dokin-chan after they visited his castle when they were trying to get away from a rain storm, and after demonstrating on how he can create ghosts, Baikinman and Dokin-chan teamed up to use his ghost creations to cause chaos to the land and were able to stop Anpanman and Melonpanna by tying them up. Shokupanman and Currypanman tried to stop their plan by using a vacuum to suck the ghosts up, but the ghosts were able to turn into a giant monster. Their plan was foiled after Bakeru-kun rescued Anpanman and Melonpanna and used his shape-shifting abilities to trick Hiyari, and was able to get the likes of the Yukidaruman and Kaze Konkon to freeze his giant ghost. Anpanman, Shokupanman and Currypanman were able to destroy the ghost into pieces, which causes the sky to hail and chunks of the frozen ghost fell on top of the villians and they fled after their plan failed.

Kokinchan/(コキンちゃん)

Voiced by: Aya Hirano (Anime)

Debut: Kokin-chan and the Blue Tears, (Movie) 905b (Anime)

Dokinchan's little sister who often pops up on occasion to inconvenience the heroes and villains alike.

Due to him originally being a movie character and later part of the anime, she has two different backstories. In the 2006 movie short, Kokin-chan arrives on Earth as an egg much like Baikinmn and Dokinchan did, and causes trouble for both heroes and villains due to her tears making everyone cry until her sister pops in to calm her down. In the anime, Kokin-chan arrives on Earth as an egg like in the movie, but her egg crashes onto Baikinman when he was trying to sneak attack Anpanman for some food he was delivering.

• Affably Evil: Other than being a brat who cries about whatever she wants, she's nice towards both the heroes and villains. She's only placed as a villain due to her being related to Dokichan.
• Annoying Younger Sibling: Pretty much what Dokinchan sees her as.
• Blush Sticker
• Bratty Half-Pint: Like her sister, she doesn't like it when things don't go her own way.

• Deliberately Cute Child
• Drop-In Character
• Foil:
  • To Namida-chan: Both characters have powerful tears that cause others around them to cry. But unlike Namida-chan who just cries because she gets upset easily due to her shy nature, Kokinchan purposely makes others cry due to her being a spoiled brat.
• The Friends Who Never Hang: Despite appearing a lot in the show after the initial appearance in the anime, there are a few characters Kokin-chan hasn't appeared together with.
  • In the second episode title card since the show's transition to widescreen, Kokin-chan was seen alongside some of the other villains (though Frankenrobo-kun and Taunki-Oni aren't exactly villains). Prior to the show's transition, Kokin-chan interacted with Baikin-Sensei and Horrorman, she didn't interact with the other characters shown in the title card. She would later interact with both Kurayamiman in 1156b (2013) and the Ice Queen in 1551b (2021) but hasn't interacted with the likes of Hiyari or Frankenrobo-kun.
  • Despite both appearing in the same year 2006, Kokin-chan hasn't interacted with Poppo-chan up until 17 years later in 1619a (2023).

A giant elephant type creature who lives in the cold mountains. He gives people colds whenever he comes by.

• Ambiguously Evil: Kaze-Konkon's personality in the series varies on how evil he is, due to how his powers are ice based and can cause people to get sick. Not helping that in the openings he is always with the other villains. In some of the early episodes, he was often tricked by Baikinman when he doesn't want to get involved. But the later episodes would just actively team up with him.
• All Balloons Have Helium: Although not a balloon, he'll inflate himself with his own air if his nose is tied up.
• Cartoon Creature: It's hard to tell what kind of creature Kaze Konkon is based on, though he does look like an elephant.

• Creepily Long Arms

• Gag Nose: The cold air he blows comes from his nose. This is also his weak spot if it gets either tied or clogged up.

A dark phantom magician who traps people in darkness. He would often team up with Baikinman in certain episodes.

In his debut story, Kurayamiman shows up when sone of the children were playing at the park and shows him his magic tricks. But he revealed his true colors after he demands the kids to give him food and Kurayamiman traps some of the kids inside. After finding out Baikinman was hiding, he tells the magican that Uncle Jam's bakery has a lot of food. But Baikinman just wants the magican to trap the crew and Anpanman inside his dark world to torment them. However, Uncle Jam wasn't making food for Kurayamiman and not only traps Anpanman inside, but also Baikinman and Dokinchan as well due to the former lying. The magican torments the three inside his land of darkness, but Uncle Jam and the crew were able to help Anpanman as he spins inside the giant's stommach to escape. This causes not only Kurayamiman to explode, but also Anpanman was rescue the victims inside the dark void.

The Ice Queen/(氷の女王)

Voiced by: Rihoko Yoshida (Japanese, original appearance), Noriko Ohara (Japanese; current), Mauriett Chayeb-Mendez(English)

Debut: 157b (Anime), The Shining Star's Tear (movie)

An ice queen who lives in the coldest regions. She loves collecting beautiful things, such as jewelry. She also has minion wolves called Yukiokami(ゆきおおかみ).

In her debut appearance in the 1989 movie "The Twinkling Star Tears", Anpanman and the bakery crew were helping Princess Nanda in finding the star tears that were taken by Dronko Maou and needed to get them help back. One of the first places was the castle that belonged to the Ice Queen. She refuses to help and traps Anpanman, the princess, and the other heroes in an icy cage. Thankfully, Uncle Jam was able to rescue them after using the Anpan Go to burn the queen alive.

Should not be confused with the Japanese title for Disney's Frozen, though she is loosely based on the Hans Christian Andersen character.

• Ascended Extra: She originally appeared in the first film in 1989. She later became a recurring villain in the series.
• Elemental Embodiment: Both she and the Yukiokami are made of snow and ice.

• Promotion to Opening Titles: Since the sixth opening.

• Vile Villain, Saccharine Show: She's one of the most threatening villains in the show due to her nature, and was the first one Anpanman had trouble in defeating in the movie. Even after her many defeats, the Ice Queen is still an opposing villain even compare to Baikinman.
• Villain Teleportation
• Weaksauce Weakness: She and her minions are vulnerable to fire.
• Winter Royal Lady
• Yuki Onna: Now how much of a youkai she is debatable as she isn't a ghost like the traditional yuki-onna (though considering kappas exist, this may not be farfetched). But the one thing she does have from the said creature is that she traps her victims in ice crystals.
