The Gogobas are a group that appears in the Sonic Boom television series. They are a tribe[1] of anthropomorphic chinchillas[2] who live in Gogoba Village on Seaside Island. Although weak of stature, they are expert manipulators, ensnaring their victims with nice behavior and heavy guilt trips.

Description

Characteristics and culture

The Gogobas live a simple lifestyle in their village. They have a tribal-like society with a chief serving as their leader. They are seemingly self-sustaining as they grow their own food, but possess no form of self-defense, making them an easy target for invaders.[3]

An example of Gogobas earning the favor of others.

The Gogobas follows a humble, shame-mongering culture.[1] To the outside observer, the Gogobas are incredibly nice and selfless people. They always offer the best of their services and resources and do not wish to bother others with their troubles, never once showing consideration for their own well-being and misery. This behavior makes them seem like complete pushovers as they offer no resistance when attacked. In truth, the Gogobas are devious and experts in manipulating others using guilt, and their selflessness is only a façade to further this.[3]

While telling about their services to others or mentioning others' behavior, the Gogobas casually note how it is at horrid costs for themselves, thus instilling a strong sense of guilt. This way, their victims cannot say no to the Gogobas' requests.[3] For a Gogoba to show helpfulness and friendliness is to insult their culture, making such members unfit to be a part of their tribe.[1] That said, despite their shrewdness and penchant for manipulation, the Gogobas are not without conscience; the best way escape them, is to guilt trip the Gogobas themselves.[3]

History

TV series

Season one

File:Gogoba Village Profile.png

The Gogobas being robbed.

As the Gogobas were plundered by the Weasel Bandits, Sonic the Hedgehog and Tails got rid of the bandits. Seeing that Sonic and Tails could serve as their protectors, the Gogobas guilt-tripped them to stay several times with royal treatments until they got them to stay as their protectors. Though the Gogobas were given a defense system by Sonic and Tails, they let themselves get caught in it so the duo could stay. Eventually, the Gogoba Chief let Sonic and Tails go after they guilt tripped him. In response, the Gogobas moved into Sonic's Shack so Sonic could protect them. No sooner, Dr. Eggman attacked the shack. After stopping him, Sonic and Tails guilt-tripped the Gogobas into following Eggman, making them settled in his Lair where they kept annoying Eggman.[3] Eventually though, the Gogobas returned to their village.[4]

A number of Gogobas attended the trial between Sonic and Dr. Eggman, where Eggman sued Sonic for injuring him. When Eggman was shown to be fine, the Gogobas fled as Eggman retaliated.[5] Sometime later, they held a game of Limbo in their village, with Sonic joining in on the festivities.[4] Another time, several Gogobas came to see Bro-Down Showdown live in the Village Center. However, they were forced to flee and seek shelter when Obliterator Bot attacked the set.[6] The Gogobas would soon after come to the Robot Battle Royale, where they saw Eggman steal Tails' Hypno-bot at the end.[7] Later, a lone Gogoba would visit Meh Burger.[8]
