Private First Class and member of the Garuru Platoon |
Private First Class Taruru (タルル上等兵, Taruru Jōtōhei?) is a fictional character from the anime and manga series Sgt. Frog. He is a member of the Garuru Platoon.
[edit] Overview
Taruru used to be Tamama's apprentice, and still calls him "master," or "senpai." Taruru was more clumsy than Tamama in the past. Taruru is a blue Keronian tadpole. His symbol is an orange and yellow raindrop shaped emblem, the mark of an "old driver" in Japan, but he matured faster. He now has adult features instead of tadpole features. Taruru first appeared to see if all the rumors about the Keroro Platoon was true, revealing what Tamama told him about the platoon. In the anime he also appeared a couple of times with his childhood friend Karara, forming a duo of mischievous tadpoles. Despite Taruru's clumsiness in the past, he had become very skilled when training in the Garuru Platoon and has skills that exceeded Tamama's, defeating him in a face-off. He then captures Momoka and Paul, then later on also captures Mois.[1] After Keroro encourages his platoon to rise Tamama, after receiving power from the Super Rhinoceros Beetle, and Tamama returns for a rematch and Taruru is defeated.[2]
