'''Pan Pan''', an anime-style [[Wikipedia:Giant Panda|Giant Panda]], is the [[20X6]] version of [[Pom Pom]].  Pan Pan seems to be a takeoff on the obligatory anime animal mascot, though in [[Under Construction]] he behaves more or less like Pom Pom. Like the other forms of Pom Pom, he doesn't speak in English; he instead speaks in a strange boinging sound. Pan Pan falling on [[1-Up]] appears to be a running gag.

Like most other [[Characters#20X6|20X6 characters]], getting the appropriate pill in the [[Scrolling Shooter Games Menu]] will reveal Pan Pan. There, Pan Pan opens his mouth instead of boinging to talk.

In [[Stinkoman 20X6]], Pan Pan gets kidnapped by the [[Shadowy Figure]]. 1-Up tries to tell [[Stinkoman]], but Stinkoman has other plans. Eventually, 1-Up is also captured after the rescue fails.

Pan Pan may also be a parody of [[Wikipedia:Neon Genesis Evangelion|Evangelion]]'s "Pen Pen" (or "Pen<sup>2</sup>"), a penguin with a similar coloring, name, and deer-in-the-headlights expression on his face.  He may also be a reference to Genma from the famed manga [[Wikipedia:Ranma|Ranma.]]

In Japanese, panpan is an [[Onomatopoeia|onomatopoeia]] for the sound of a slap. Also the Japanese for bread/bun is "pan" (pronounced like the english word "pawn"), which could connotate a bulging, plumpy, or swollen appearance.
