Brokenbrella is a white up-turned umbrella with a grey handle with human legs on him and framing. He has a large frown and curved, teary eyes. But he has a confident face when inside-out.
Brokenbrella has a rather vengeful personality, owing to his history of being discarded by his previous owner. He holds a vendetta against humans and enjoys turning their umbrellas inside out during rainfall and causing them to get wet.
In the anime, Brokenbrella initially doesn't think much of Pallysol since Pallysol is based on a traditional Japanese umbrella, but gains respect for him after he trains Brokenbrella to withstand stormy winds better.
In Yo-kai Watch 2, Brokenbrella is disgusted by Ray O'Light and Drizzelda sappy public display of affection during the storm caused by Eyeclone, but once he starts attacking him, he goes to the player to ask them to help rescue them.
Brokenbrella makes people's umbrellas turn inside out when it's rainy or windy.
Brokenbrella appears in Yo-kai Brokenbrella as it causes the umbrellas of Nate, Bear and Eddie to turn inside out during a heavy rainstorm. After it is identified, Brokenbrella recounts his origin of a store-bought umbrella that was overlooked in favor of his other umbrella friends. When he was eventually picked out, he tried to protect its owner from the rain but was quickly turned inside out, causing his owner to discard it out of frustration. The shock of being rejected turned the umbrella into a vengeful Yo-kai, bent on ruining the umbrellas of other people.
Nate first summons Jibanyan to deal with Brokenbrella, but refuses to do so on account of the rain. Nate then summons Pallysol, who proves his superiority in resisting the wind and offers to train Brokenbrella's resistance. By the end of the training Brokenbrella is able to fold itself back properly, earning Pallysol its gratitude and Nate its Yo-kai Medal, but a huge gust of wind ends up wrecking both umbrella Yo-kai.
"Sakasakkasa" is a contraction of sakasama kasa (逆さま傘, "inverted umbrella").
"Brokenbrella" is a contraction of broken umbrella.
Origin[]
Brokenbrella might draw inspiration from the hone karakasa (骨傘, "skeletal umbrella"), a tsukumogami born from a dilapidated paper umbrella, its exposed wooden tines resembling fish bones. It flaps its shredded canopy like ghastly wings as it flies over cities, and its arrival is an omen of bad weather.
Trivia[]
Brokenbrella's "random" nicknames in Yo-kai Watch 2 are: Umbra, Floop, Ernie, and Brolly.
