Kabo is an unused character in Magical Vacation.
Profile
Kabo is an orange gourd-looking fruit with a slightly curved form, a leafy stalk, and beady blue eyes.
Gameplay
Before it was scrapped, Kabo, or multiple Kabos, were planned to swarm throughout the game at some point, but its exact role and gameplay functions are unknown. Shinichi Kameoka was asked by Nobuyuki Inoue to draw fruit characters, the other being Ribo, until they were scrapped for looking too identical to potfolk.[1]
Nomenclature
Its name likely comes from 南瓜 kabocha, meaning "pumpkin" in Japanese.
