Biology[]
Bitter Batter has black beetle hair and what appears to be a toothpick sticking out of it. After its orange and yellow round head with red swirls on its cheeks, small ears, eyes with red sclera and yellow pupils, and an odd looking round mouth, the bottom part of it's body is a takoyaki with takoyaki sauce and mayonnaise. Eight octopus tentacles come out from under the second layer of its takoyaki body which are used for walking and running.
Bitter Batter was formed from the chopped octopus bits that never became takoyaki, a Japanese dish of octopus balls. Because of this he has a bitter grudge (hence his name) with the choppers and the bits that become takoyaki. Also, his ability is to make the octopus that is used to make takoyaki go missing, giving the takoyaki a weird taste.

Shogunyan is summoned and he, along with many other Yo-kai, including Hungramps and Grubsnitch, crisp him and he became known by the gag name “Takosenbei“ (from tako, meaning cracker).
