"This Yo-kai is made of banana and is often bothered by circling flies. No relation to Babblong."


Bananose (Japanese: ナガバナナ Nagabanana) is a Water-attribute Rare Yo-kai of the Slippery tribe introduced in Yo-kai Watch. Introduced as Rank A, he was demoted to Rank B in Yo-kai Watch Blasters.

In the anime[]

Yo-kai Watch![]

Bananose makes his debut in EX013. He turns Nate’s bananas black quicker than usual which makes him suspicious. He is then discovered but before he could say anything, Nate summons Jibanyan and he beats him up. After getting beat up he explains that he turns them black to bring them to their most delicious state. He bewilders Nate, Whisper, and Jibanyan with some banana facts and then tells them how to get a banana in its most delicious state. After hearing this information Nate goes up for the challenge to get the banana in its most delicious state and does everything he can to protect the banana. It finally ripens and gets in its most delicious state. Nate launches it into the air to eat it but then the banana crosses the Dark Black Banana Line. The revolting banana lands on the faces of Nate, Whisper, and Jibanyan. Bananose then tells them to start over and walks out, leaving his keystone on the floor.
