Corporal Giroro is a main character in Sgt Frog Abridged and is a member of the Keroro Platoon. He is most dedicated to completing the platoon's mission to invade Earth, but he puts forward about as much effort as Keroro.

Bio

Despite being the most angry, bitter, and potentially violent of the platoon, Giroro is also arguably the most normal and has the most common sense of the platoon. He is not without his quirks (he is out of touch with very common-knowledge subjects, flashbacks apparently make him nauseous, and he is allergic to cats), but he tends to act the most civil.

He most wants to complete the platoon's mission, but he is no more capable of doing so than Keroro.

Relationships

Giroro is on friendly terms with most of the characters. He grew up with Keroro and Dororo; he's had casual conversations with Keroro, and he will actually go along with Keroro's dumbest of plans, (he's had at least one of his own). Despite taking part in tormenting Dororo as a child, he has gone on to be one of the few characters to care about Dororo. Their friendship visibly develops at the end of Episode 7, where it is implied that the two weren't on a first-name basis until that point.

Giroro is in love with Natsumi, though it may simply be a misguided physical attraction on his part. Unlike his Keroro Gunsou counterpart who fell for Natsumi after she defeated him, Giroro fell for her as a result of watching her naked in the shower; this may have been coupled with mental damage that occurred after flying through the same window several times. Regardless he has openly hit on her several times, most blatantly in Episode 5, and he has threatened Koyuki. Natsumi does not reciprocate his advances at all.

Running Gags Associated with Giroro

• Giroro being out-of-touch with the most common-knowledge subjects (burger stores sell burgers, "WHAT THE FUCK'S A TOOTSIE POP?!")

Trivia

• Giroro was originally voiced by former Midnight Frog, DFatman. Fatman only got to voice Giroro in the SFA1R Post-Credits. He had trouble voicing his lines for SFA2R, so Thorn offered to do them as backup; Yoshi unquestionably preferred Thorn's interpretation.
