Mugman

Mugman is the deuteragonist of Cuphead. Mugman is Cuphead's sensible younger twin brother and like the rest of his family, lives on Inkwell Isle. He is controlled by the second player and can join or leave the game at any time. Due to his deuteragonistic role, Mugman formerly could not be controlled by the first player. However, as of the update in April 2019, the first player can choose to play as Mugman instead of Cuphead, making it so that Mugman won't have to be controlled by the second player. He is voiced by Frank Todaro in The Cuphead Show! Mugman is very similar in overall appearance to his older twin brother Cuphead, with his head reminiscing a mug and his body being almost identical to his sibling: wearing a black, long- sleeve shirt, yellow gloves, a pair of shorts and brown shoes, although artworks sometimes show him with white gloves. What's different about Mugman's appearance compared to his brother is having a blue color scheme to replace Cuphead's red, a shorter straw (which elongates to a longer length in one of his intro animations breaks 20% of the way up from the bottom when something hurts him only to pull itself back together), and a much bigger nose. His eyes are smaller and his head is slightly thinner compared to his brother. His body also separates at the waist upon taking damage but pulls itself together within half a second. His ghost form when his health hits zero makes him legless with his legs replaced by a ghostly tail. In this state, he doesn't have shorts. Mugman is a joyful and goofy person and "kidult" who cares for his older twin brother Cuphead very much. He is more cautious than his brother and is a bit of a worrier. While he secretly loves the adventures Cuphead drags him into, he often frets about the collateral damage they might cause. He has a somewhat dorky nature and tends to over-prepare for a battle rather than jumping right in.
