'''Ekoro''' (also known as '''Ecolo''') is a [[strange]] [[entity of Darkness]] that made his first appearance in [[Puyo Puyo 7]]. His face has a frighting resemblance to that [[Fawful]], an infamous [[Mario]] villain, and also has a [[question mark]] on his forehead. Nobody knows where he came from, but some may say he exists in one of three parallel [[Puyoverse]]s, none of them at all, or even in [[a place between the three]].

'''Ekoro''', also incorrectly known as '''Ekoro's Possessor''', is a dark, blob like entity in [[Compile Worlds]]. Originally, it was purported that Ekoro was possessing [[Ecolo]] the [[evil]] [[Technomage]]. However, it turns out the exact opposite was true. Despite this, Ekoro is a parasitic being, unable to take a stable physical form without a host body. Currently, it is inhabiting [[Omega]]'s body, after being expelled from Ecolo's in {{Episode|39}} by [[Black Sig]]. He is also one of the four co conspirators of [[SHAME]], though it was not revealed until the final episode.

In Subete, Ekoro is very melodramatic and poetic, often elongating his sentences into complex ryhmes, riddles, and speeches. He suffers from many mental instabilities and pursues several obsessions, including [[hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliomania]] and [[loquacity]] (which explains his manner of speech), [[theatromania]], [[sophomania]], [[mythomania]], [[gamomania]], [[epomania]], [[enosimania]], [[aboulomania]], excessive and perpetual [[euphoria]], [[obsessive-compulsive disorder]], [[narcissistic personality disorder]], and [[psychopathy]]. Often he contrasts his own demeaning personality by acting somewhat polite and eccentric. He is also a master of surprise, and carries this into most of his actions. As a theatrical person, Ekoro is capable of imitating any voice, along with being able to change his form to match another's. Ekoro has great telekinetic powers, so powerful he is able to manipulate [[Ekoro's clones|living beings into carrying out his orders]], almost acting as their own brain. He could also stimulate pain so great it can cause one to die, and manipulate and brainwash people into thinking things that weren't reality. He also demonstrated he was capable of disintegrating and absorbing matter. Despite his great power and overwhelming personality, Ekoro was destroyed himself by his own clones, whom also had great power thanks to himself.

Apparently, he knew [[Strange Klug]] from visiting [[Primp]] prior to the events of the Ekoro Arc. However, Strange Klug did not reminiscent about this, as he [[ego|was too busy scoffing]] Ekoro's carelessness and obsession. According to Strange Klug, Ekoro lacked the [[common sense]] to carry his plans into fruition, as evidenced by his creation and destruction of [[Phi]], the eventual rejection of [[Zeta]], and miscalculating the [[ADMA]]'s ability to track him and defeat him, among other things. However, Ekoro's legacy continues to come up in discussion despite his defeat, as not only has it grabbed the attention of other villains such as the [[Book Demon]] and [[Lord Marcus]], but it also activated a [[revenge]] [[program]] within Zeta, complete with instructions to eliminate the remaining traitorous clones. It is also constantly implied by various characters that Ekoro may still even be alive within the orb, albeit only barely. Because of this, his orb has become a recurring plot point in the Meteor Arc, along with his remaining legacy and any still-unknown parts of his original plan. It was recently revealed that Ekoro's Base still survives within the orb.

According to [[Omega]] in {{Episode|49}}, Ecolo had taken over the mind of Ekoro 600 years prior to the RP, and become the strange, nearly invincible blob-like identity you see in the infobox. Ecolo used his power to spread great terror throughout the cosmos, and Ekoro could only suffer and watch as his power was being used to commit evil deeds. Ecolo, however, temporarily had anmesia and lost control over Ekoro prior to Compile Worlds, as told in [[MPFW]]. However, he reclaimed Ekoro's power and continued his madness in the modern era.

Ekoro seemed to be able to break Ecolo's grip on him somewhat though after six centuries, as he was able to conspire with [[Nanako]], [[Auriol]], and [[Strange Klug]] in SHAME to conduct [[the Tournament]]. Ekoro was finally freed from Ecolo's weakening grip over him when Black Sig used his full power on him during The Tournament. He possessed the body of Omega almost immediately afterwords in order to continue having a physical presence and see the results of SHAME come to fruition.

In PP7, Ekoro had possessed [[Arle]] and turned her into [[Dark Arle]]. Nevertheless, even with Arle's power, he was defeated. However, left to his own [[accord]], his power apparently became too great for [[Ringo]] alone to stop him from [[disintegration of all existence|disintegrating all existence]] by [[Burying with Puyo|burying the world with Puyo]] <s>[[For the best|to make things better for her world]]</s> [[for the lulz]]. So Arle, [[Amitie]] and Ringo triple teamed on Ekoro, and Ekoro just gave up. He takes the form of a Shadowy Ringo, and <s>borrows</s> steals her animations. In [[Transformation Mode]], Ekoro changes into shadowy doppelgangers of different characters, such as [[Feli]], [[Lemres]] and [[Klug]].

During the course of the RP, it is revealed Ekoro may have been trying to sabotage Ecolo and [[Fake Arle]]'s [[Fake Arle's plans|plans]] by implementing strange routines to run in [[Alpha]] and [[Zeta]] and creating the blueprints for the clone [[Phi]] (whose "Perfect Light" would've been an appropriate counterattack for Ecolo's darkness). However, Ekoro didn't seem to know or care much about the situation after it became dire in the present time of [[The Gathering]]. He even deemed it hopeless beyond help and said it was useless to stop Fake Arle and Ecolo. He was soundly proven wrong by the end of the arc.

Ekoro once again appears as a diabolical mastermind in 20th Anniversary, along with (GASP!) [[Satan]]. Ekoro stages Ringo, [[Maguro]], [[Risukuma]], and [[Witch]]'s entrance to [[Primp]], via meteors of course, without a concern for any stray [[Cirno]]s that may be flying about. Of course, after the events of Puyo Puyo 7 (and possibly Subete), Ekoro got fat and derpy from being so consumed with hatred and depression that he nearly ate himself to death at [[McDonald's]]. Of course, he continues to rob other characters of their animations, but not their designs. Eventually Ringo learns that ONE of the villains sent her to Primp, so she hunts down Ekoro, who then plays a game of hot potato by passing the blame onto Satan, and then Accord, who passes it back to Ekoro again. Fed up with Ringo constantly screwing with his plans, Ekoro sends Ringo and Arle to [[hell|The Pink Paradise]] to confront Satan again. Unfortunately, Satan is too stupid to finish the job alone, so Ekoro [[Pair Mode|teams up]] with him to [[paintchat|gangbang]] (and of course [[rape|violate]]) the girls, only to meet a fate similar to the climax of Puyo Puyo 7 and Subete, with the heroes ganging up on HIM...again. Thus, Ekoro finally sends Ringo back to her world, albeit possibly against her will. ([[Sadface|:(]])

This is benevolent entity known as "Ekoro". If you were looking for the malevolent version that appears in the Puyo series and Compile Worlds, see Ecolo.

Ekoro, also incorrectly known as Ekoro's Possessor, is a dark, blob like entity in Compile Worlds. Originally, it was purported that Ekoro was possessing Ecolo the evil Technomage. However, it turns out the exact opposite was true. Despite this, Ekoro is a parasitic being, unable to take a stable physical form without a host body. Currently, it is inhabiting Omega's body, after being expelled from Ecolo's in Episode 39 by Black Sig. He is also one of the four co conspirators of SHAME, though it was not revealed until the final episode.

Biography

According to Omega in Episode 49, Ecolo had taken over the mind of Ekoro 600 years prior to the RP, and become the strange, nearly invincible blob-like identity you see in the infobox. Ecolo used his power to spread great terror throughout the cosmos, and Ekoro could only suffer and watch as his power was being used to commit evil deeds. Ecolo, however, temporarily had anmesia and lost control over Ekoro prior to Compile Worlds, as told in MPFW. However, he reclaimed Ekoro's power and continued his madness in the modern era.

Ekoro seemed to be able to break Ecolo's grip on him somewhat though after six centuries, as he was able to conspire with Nanako, Auriol, and Strange Klug in SHAME to conduct the Tournament. Ekoro was finally freed from Ecolo's weakening grip over him when Black Sig used his full power on him during The Tournament. He possessed the body of Omega almost immediately afterwords in order to continue having a physical presence and see the results of SHAME come to fruition.

During the course of the RP, it is revealed Ekoro may have been trying to sabotage Ecolo and Fake Arle's plans by implementing strange routines to run in Alpha and Zeta and creating the blueprints for the clone Phi (whose "Perfect Light" would've been an appropriate counterattack for Ecolo's darkness). However, Ekoro didn't seem to know or care much about the situation after it became dire in the present time of The Gathering. He even deemed it hopeless beyond help and said it was useless to stop Fake Arle and Ecolo. He was soundly proven wrong by the end of the arc.

Unlike the sinister prankster that possessed him, Ekoro is a much calmer figure. He is also quite melancholy at times, talking in an outright depressed tone. He is not on very good terms with Fake Arle, given she is involved in a lot of evil shenanigans conspiring against him. Ekoro's body is an unstable mass of black particles bound to a strange energy core, and so long as another life form contains it, he can use it to manipulate them or even consume them; he controlled the behaviour of Ekoro's clones in this manner, for example. He is also capable of possessing host bodies, though in the case of Ecolo, he cannot always control them.

Etymology

Ekoro is named after the direct romanization of Ecolo's name. While Ecolo used this as a misnomer for himself in the fused form, it actually stems from Ekoro being the English version of his name prior to 20th, where it was confirmed once and for all (like, finally) that his name was indeed romanized as "Ecolo".

Trivia

  • Ekoro has never spoken in his original form; only through Omega or Ecolo's bodies.
    • Similarly, the true form of Ekoro is only seen once; the precise moment when Sig releases him.
