"Mmmm, I wanna take a comfortable bath."

— Hanged Man's ending in Magical Drop Pocket

Hanged Man (ハングドマン, Hangudoman) is a shady character debuting as a secret boss in Magical Drop III.

Appearance and Personality

Hanged Man wears tattered clothes, a hat with the top ripped out, and is occasionally seen chewing on a straw. He is almost always upside-down, oftentimes standing on thin air to do so. In Magical Drop F, he wears a vest and several belts including one over his eye; in his transformed state, he wears leather and adds even more restraints.

He is sometimes depicted as a pervert; Magical Drop III 4-Koma Ketteiban in particular features several gags centered around Hanged Man's ability to "up-skirt" the female cast.

Magical Drop III

Hanged Man is a secret boss, encountered by defeating Hermit with a clear time of more than 300 seconds. He also appears as a mid-boss in Magical Journey. In his arcade ending, he wishes to time-travel, noting how Magician changes over the years and how Fool doesn't. In the console version, he wishes to be normal for a day, which causes everyone else to hang upside down instead.

Magical Drop Pocket

He is initially a mid-boss, but is made playable by clearing the game. In his ending, he wishes for a comfortable bath, and appears next to a bathtub with World waiting.

Magical Drop F

Hanged Man's starting item is a hook where it protects the player from enemy attacks while it holds the entire stack.

Magical Drop VI

Hanged Man is a playable character in Magical Drop VI, unlocked if the player clears 5-minute Caravan Mode once.

Hanged Man also stars in one of the game's bad endings. In his ending, he rules Magical Land with World, but the cast of good characters are all hang in the darker side of life.

Trivia

• Hanged Man is occasionally spelled "Hangedman" in Magical Drop Pocket.
