Appearances[]

Biology[]

Cap'n Crash has a stocky build and has blue skin. He also has a mustache, a goatee, blue puffy lips, and an eyepatch in his left eye. He wears a black hakama fastened by a red obi, a sleeveless blue captain coat with golden linings, and a bicorn typically worn by pirate captains, giving him a pirate captain appearance. He's seen carrying an anchor, or sometimes he's seen his steering wheel.

Using his steering wheel, Cap'n Crash can cause people to make a decision, and regret it. However, his wheel gets locked into place, if his victims feel proud of their decision.

In the games, he uses his wheel to rotate the player's Yo-kai against his or her will. He's can set a water trap to damage the Yo-kai in that position. He also has moves depending on his weapon. For example, when his anchor's out, he can swing it 4 times at all of your Yo-kai. Or, when his steering wheel's out, he can inspirit your Yo-kai and even drop a big iron ball onto one of the allies.

Game data[]

Anchor - Hits a Yo-kai with his anchor.

Anchor Swing - Swings his anchor, hitting the front row multiple times.

Use The Helm! - Takes out a wheel and prevents the Yo-kai Wheel from manually rotating. Depending on which way he rotates it, the Yo-kai Wheel will spin that way.

Heavy Memory - Drops a weight on a single Yo-kai. Can only be used when the helm is out.

Vial o'Venom - Poisons the front row, in which allies’ HP steadily decreases. Can only be used when the helm is out.

Unknown Bomb Attack - Attacks the front row by dropping bombs on them. Can only be used when the helm is out.

Rough Crossing (Soultimate) - Places a water trap on a Yo-kai that erupts every 2 turns. Can only be used when the helm is out. You can reduce the effectiveness of this move by purposely letting one of your Yo-kai be knocked out and, as soon as you get control over the wheel, place it so that the fainted Yo-kai slot is the one above the water trap, so that it can trigger without dealing any damage.

In the anime[]

Yo-kai Watch[]

Cap'n Crash appears in EP057, in which causes Nate to make decisions and causing him to regret them. He's also accompanied by two unnamed crew members. Even though Nate summons Papa Windbag to counter his powers in the moment Eddie gives him a tribal mask instead of an Emperor Krill figure by choosing randomly, Nate falls victim to Cap'n Crash's power. Finally, Nate thwarts Cap'n Crash when Katie encourages him about his mask as it was the inspiration for Emperor Krill's mask that only the most serious fans have. His wheel's locked into place by Nate's excitement; then he and his crew fall over trying to make it move. At the end of the episode, Whisper says the lesson is that if you’re thankful for what you get, you’ll never regret.

In EP112, Mr. Crabbycat taught Hardy Hound, Gargaros, Rubeus J, and Cap'n Crash went to Disrupting Class Academy but all they did was damage the school with their size.

Etymology[]

  • Capitán Penas means Captain Misfortune.

Origin[]

Name Origin[]

  • In French, "Barbefrousse" comes from "Barberousse" (may refer to Aruj Barbarossa and Hayreddin Barbarossa, famous corsairs of the Mediterranean) and "frousse" (willies).
  • In English, Cap'n Crash is a pun combining the name of the cereal mascot Cap'n Crunch and the word crash.

Trivia[]

  • While in the game he appears alone, in his anime debut he appears with a Yo-kai small pirate crew of his own.
  • According to data from the now defunct Medalland website, Cap'n Crash was supposed to make an appearance as a boss in Yo-kai Watch Blasters.
    • It's unknown as to why he was scrapped, though it likely had something to do with his steering wheel gimmick being hard to incorporate in a non-battle wheel setting.
