Popo
CharacterPopo is an anime-original ostrich kept by the bounty hunter Scorpion. Saddled up and outfitted for travel, the bird serves as his mount during a brief filler chase aimed at capturing Ace.
Appearance
Popo is a sizable flightless bird kitted out for the road. A helmet and goggles cover his head, and a saddle with an attached saddlebag rides on his back.
Personality
The ostrich has a clumsy streak, once going so far as to chew on rope. Even so, he follows human speech well enough to fetch Scorpion's bazooka on command, and he has the sense to bolt whenever something frightens him.
