Black Bomberman

Black Bomberman (also shortened Black Bomber) is a major character in the Bomberman series. A member of the Bombermen, who are usually inhabitants of Planet Bomber, he has the ability to generate bombs. He was the leader of his own gang of Bombermen, leading Red, Blue, Green and Yellow Bombers. He proclaims himself to be White Bomberman's best friend and most cunning rival.

He is also nicknamed Kuro Bom in Japanese, which has been translated as "Black Bomb" in Bomberman Hero and localized as "Cool Black" in the English releases of the Bomberman Land series. Occasionally, this is further shortened to simply "Kuro" in the Japanese versions.

Personality
He is usually portrayed with a gung-ho personality, rather serious in battle (although he likes to make fun of his opponents). He is a little more forceful, mildly frustrated at living in White's shadow, because he is unable to catch up with White Bomber's level of skill. He has a cool and collected personality in the later games, such as in Super Bomberman R where he's more of a narcissist (although he loses his cool around women). The instruction manual for Bomberman Land Wii states that he is surprisingly good at foreign languages.
