Bat

Name Origin
Bat is Acro's younger brother, and he looked up to Mr. Berry as a father. He was also in love with Regina.

English "Dingling" is probably a combination of "Ringling Bros" and "dangling."

Japanese Kinoshita is the name of a real Japanese circus

French His surname sounds similar to cloche, French for "bell," which may be a reference to "dingling."

Background
Like his brother, Bat was abandoned by his parents when they were young. He was taken in by Mr. Berry of the Berry Big Circus and raised to be a performer and acrobat. Bat was in love with Regina, Mr. Berry's lion-tamer daughter. They often pulled pranks on each other. One day, Bat made a bet with her: if he could take her place in a certain stunt (where she put her head in a lion's mouth), she would go on a real date with him. Regina agreed, but as was always the case with them decided to play a prank on him. She covered his favorite scarf with pepper to make him sneeze. It didn't make Bat sneeze, but it did affect the lion - Léon sneeze just as Bat put his head in his mouth, badly wounding him. Acro jumped at the lion to try and wrestle him off his brother, but he was also wounded. Presently, Bat is still in a coma, and his brother Acro is confined to a wheelchair.
