Biography
Character
Appearance
All three brothers are identical in appearance. They are all very muscular human men. While not giants like their mother and brother, they are taller than an average human. They have tan skin, similar to their father. Their hair and eye colors are unknown due to the protective armor and goggles they wear. The armor presumably helps them curl into balls and keep them safe when thrown.

The Professor, Patricia, Marilyn, and either Tonkichi, Chinpei, or Kanta were watching Milly & Meryl's TV program at their home while eating together. Patricia and Marilyn were outraged by Meryl saying they should include "naughty fanservice" in their show to satisfy the demands of the viewers. Marilyn said she did not want her little brother exposed to this kind of fanservice and that she was going to file a complaint. The Professor told them to shut up.
When a NLBC representative showed up at their house to collect the annual network fee from the Nebraska Family, Patricia angrily hurled either Tonkichi, Chinpei, or Kanta at the man while Marilyn berated them about fanservice.
