Gangle

Gangle, is a central and highly sensitive and consists of four candy-red ribbons and interchangeable porcelain masks. Based on the ancient "Sock and Buskin" theater symbols, she typically wears a smiling Comedy Mask that serves as a literal form of emotional masking; however, this mask is notoriously fragile and frequently breaks—often due to Jax's persistent bullying—to reveal a sobbing Tragedy Mask underneath. In her former human life, she was a 26-year-old aspiring artist and community college dropout who worked as a fast-food shift manager, after receiving a sturdier, plastic mask from Zooble. While her tragedy mask is her "true" state in the circus, she is a deeply complex character who enjoys drawing anime (her favorite being Azumanga Daioh), harbors dark desires like wanting to "fire a tommy gun while laughing maniacally," and has survived more fatal cartoon injuries than any other character. Despite her shy and "submissive" reputation, recent episodes show her developing greater self-acceptance and a stronger bond with Zooble, eventually learning to express happiness even without her comedy mask.
