{{Quote|He's here to destroy things with his hammer--and he's not monkeying around!|'''Bonkers''' Quest description in ''[[Team Kirby Clash Deluxe]]''}}
'''Bonkers''' is a simian-like [[mid-boss]], wielding an enormous hammer which resembles [[King Dedede]]'s. He made his debut in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]''.
'''Bonkers''' is a simian-like [[Mid-Boss]], wielding an enormous hammer which resembles [[King Dedede]]'s. He made his first appearance in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]''. In order to attack, Bonkers may charge at [[Kirby]], jump in the air and swing his hammer, or throw [[Coconut]]s at Kirby to deal damage.  These Coconuts may be inhaled then shot out to harm him. Once defeated, Bonkers lays on the ground for a bit, like all mid-bosses, at which point Kirby can inhale him and get the [[Hammer]] ability. Since Bonkers was the only enemy with a hammer prior to ''[[Kirby and the Forgotten Land]]'', he is the [[helper]] for the Hammer ability. He appears in every game with the Hammer ability, and has had many spin-offs and variations.


His name is a pun on "bonkers", a slang term for "crazy", describing to his behavior, and the verb "bonk", referring to the hammer he holds.
In order to attack, Bonkers may charge at [[Kirby]], jump in the air and swing his hammer, or throw [[Coconut]]s at Kirby to deal damage.  These Coconuts may be engulfed then shot out to harm him. Once defeated, Bonkers lays on the ground for a bit, like all midbosses, at which point Kirby can inhale him and get [[Hammer]] ability. Since Bonkers is the only enemy with a hammer, he is the [[helper]] for the hammer ability. He appears in every game with the hammer ability.


==Physical appearance==
==Game Appearances==
Bonkers is characterized as a large-bodied bipedal anthropomorphic gorilla, though still noticeably hunched over in posture. He has the look of a stereotypical "[[wikipedia:greaser (subculture)|greaser]]"; he wears denim jeans and a belt, and he has a "coat" of what appears to be purple body hair around his upper body and head, which is stylized to resemble a heavy vest and a pompadour hairstyle. His brow extends as to obscure his eyes, rendering them unseen behind a black veil (though some artwork portrays him with dot eyes).
===''Kirby's Adventure/ Nightmare in Dream Land''===
 
[[File:Adv Bonkers Sprite.png]] [[File:Advance Bonkers.png]]
Bonkers' arms are proportioned cartoonishly, with overly large forearms compared to the upper arm width. His hands and feet are well-defined, with five digits on each, unlike characters like [[Kirby]] who have no visible fingers or toes. His ears are often pointed like those of an [[wikipedia:Elf|elf]], but this is not a consistent feature of his. Additionally, in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and its remake, Bonkers' feet are colored differently than his skin, resembling shoes; this is not the case in any of his other appearances.
''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'' marked the first appearance of Bonkers, and [[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land|its remake]] also includes him. In the original, he is seen wearing either orange or blue, and he is only seen wearing purple in the remake.

Bonkers is encountered three times in ''[[Team Kirby Clash Deluxe]]'', and three more times in ''[[Super Kirby Clash]]''. He's been made even larger, and his spinning moves made more elaborate to pose a challenge to four Kirby heroes working in unison. Of the three ''Super Kirby Clash'' encounters, he is paired with [[Blocky]] in the sole Party Quest he appears in to form Team Heavy Hitter. Despite this, he is out-shined by his electrified cousin, [[Spark Bonkers]].

Bonkers returns in this title, reprising his role as a [[Mid-Boss]]. Once defeated, he can be recruited as a [[Helper|Friend]] by tossing a heart at him before his body explodes. As a Friend, Bonkers can use all the same moves as [[Hammer]] Kirby, can perform the coveted [[Infinity Jump]], and can also infuse his hammer with various [[Power Effect]]s. In addition, Bonkers gains his own adventure in the Extra Game, titled [[Guest Star ???? Star Allies Go!|Guest Star Bonkers Banana Mania]].

Due to his larger size, Bonkers is a bigger target than Hammer Kirby, but he also possesses more [[health]] than Kirby.
 
The following is a list of attacks Bonkers can perform as a mid-boss in ''Kirby Star Allies''.

!Attack
!Description

|'''Hammer'''
|Bonkers walks up to a target, stops and raises his hammer, and then swings it down in front of him. The slam reveals a [[Dropped Star]] on the ground afterwards.
|
|-
|'''Jump'''
|Bonkers jumps in place three times in a row, making him slightly harder to hit.
|Bonkers may also perform a giant leap which homes in on a given target's current horizontal position.
|-
|'''Coconuts'''
|Bonkers throws explosive coconuts that explode after a while or after hitting a target. They can be inhaled and spat back before they explode to inflict damage.
|His regular form starts out by throwing only one coconut. In phase 2 ''or his harder variation's phase 1'', he throws out three coconuts.<br>''His harder variation throws out two small and one big coconut in the second phase.''
|-
|'''[[Hammer Flip]]'''
|Bonkers walks up to a target, stops and charges his hammer with a fiery glow and then swings it upwards, dealing massive damage to anyone that gets hit by it. A [[Dropped Star]] appears in front of the hammer after the attack.
|
|-
|'''Hammer Swing'''
|Bonkers rapidly swings his hammer around him, moving horizontally for a few seconds before stopping. As soon as he stops hammer swinging, a Dropped Star appears in front of him.
|
|-
!colspan=3|'''Harder version only''' &nbsp;
|-
|'''Hammer Twirl'''
|Bonkers jumps up and then twirls his hammer beneath him. When landing, a fiery conflagration is left behind for a few moments while Dropped Stars appear on both sides of the hammer. This repeats three more times, with the hammer enlarging and delaying Bonkers hitting the ground for the last twirl.

|caption=Screenshot of '''Bonkers''' from ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]''
In ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'', Bonkers makes his only appearance in episode 79 - [[Goin' Bonkers]] as, surprisingly, a protagonist. He is [[Kirby (anime)|Kirby]]'s biggest fan, and King Dedede turns him into '''[[Demon Bonkers]]''', who Kirby must fight. Bonkers is reverted to his normal self when Kirby [[Inhale|steals]] Bonkers's hammer and [[Copy Ability|transforms]] into [[Hammer]] Kirby. As he leaves, he leaves Kirby a photo as a memento.

{{Main|Goin' Bonkers}}
===Role in Goin' Bonkers===
{{quote|Star Warrior me want to be! Like you, Kirby.|'''Bonkers''', in [[Goin' Bonkers]]}}
'''Bonkers''' appears in the ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'' episode [[Goin' Bonkers]], serving as the guest star and the [[monster]] of that episode. Initially, Bonkers lived on his own in a jungle outside of [[Dream Land (anime)|Dream Land]], but was captured by a circus and forced to perform for them for a time. While in his cage, Bonkers would be able to catch glimpses of his trainer watching episodes of ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'', and became enamored with the idea of being a [[Star Warrior]] like [[Kirby (anime character)|Kirby]]. Eventually, Bonkers was able to escape the circus with one of their hammers, and traveled great distances in order to reach Dream Land and find his idol Kirby.


Once he arrives, Bonkers causes a stir in [[Cappy Town]] when he asks about Kirby's whereabouts and accidentally clobbers those he asks with his hammer when he stoops to bow farewell. After a great deal of misinformation is spread about him, Bonkers manages to find Kirby, but is antagonized by [[King Dedede (anime character)|King Dedede]] and his lackeys, who he is initially able to drive off. Bonkers begs Kirby to train him to be a Star Warrior, but his incomplete grasp of language along with Kirby's inability to speak outside of saying "poyo" confuses matters. King Dedede is later able to trick Bonkers into attacking Kirby by saying Kirby is testing his ability to fight, but this later backfires when Bonkers saves Kirby from a falling boulder that King Dedede and [[Escargoon]] were trying to roll at Kirby to crush him.
Fed up, King Dedede abducts Bonkers and takes him to [[Castle Dedede]], where he is transformed into a larger more monstrous form by [[Night Mare Enterprises]]. In this form, Bonkers abducts Tiff and climbs to the top of the castle. Kirby flies after him on the [[Warp Star]], and the sight of the heroic Star Warrior wielding the [[Hammer]] [[Copy Ability]] retrieved from Bonkers' hammer reminds the monster Bonkers of his true self, and he is able to return to normal. After all remaining misunderstandings are cleared up, Bonkers bids his new friends farewell after receiving a picture of himself with Kirby. He sets off for parts unknown in order to train to become a real Star Warrior.
===Characteristics===
Bonkers looks very similar to his appearance in the video games. Notable differences include extra brown hair on his face and arms, and his friendly temperament toward Kirby. His hammer also has a big "B" on it, which differs from the usual star insignia seen on his hammer in the games. On his back is a scabbard for his hammer, which is notable, since he does not have this in the games.
When transformed into his monster form, Bonkers and his hammer become significantly larger. He also becomes more disheveled in appearance, his eyes turn red, and he grows sharp teeth and claws. In this form, he acts with a blind rage, going after [[Tiff]] for seemingly no reason. However, as he remained good at heart, he was unable to be transformed completely, and seeing Kirby acting like a hero allowed him to return to normal.
