Poppoko

Poppoko is a member of the Alvida Pirates.

Appearance
Poppoko is an overweight man, with a large chin, black hair, and a bit of stubble on his chin. He wears a blue and white striped bandana, with a matching short sleeved shirt. His sideburns also come down into a curl.

Personality
Typical of his thuggish appearance, Poppoko likes to intimidate Coby due to his low status and timid personality. He fears Alvida, and tried to deny slacking off (which she hates) when she found him doing so. He, like the rest of the crew, calls her beautiful simply to avoid her Iron Mace.

Romance Dawn Arc
Poppoko, along with his crewmates Heppoko, Peppoko and Coby, found Luffy in the barrel he had drifted to their hideout in. The first three intimidated Coby due to his low status as a ship caretaker, and tried to attack Luffy, but were defeated. After that, they reported to Alvida when she attacked them, thinking they were slacking off.

Loguetown Arc
Poppoko later reappears at Loguetown alongside other members of Alvida's crew as a subordinate of Gally. Under orders from Gally, they attempt to raid the port area, but are foiled by Captain Smoker.

Manga and Anime Differences
Poppoko never appeared alongside Heppoko in the same scene in the anime as opposed to the manga. Instead, a miscellaneous crew member replaced Heppoko in the scene when Luffy's barrel was opened. Poppoko is accidentally knocked out by Luffy when he breaks out of the barrel and is later sent flying by Alvida, and so he never appears alongside Heppoko in any scene.

Another difference is that when Alvida is sent flying by Luffy, she ends up crashing down on top of him in the water.

In the anime, Poppoko later reappears in the Loguetown Arc as a member of Gally's crew.
