Bill

From Tamagotchi Wikia

Bill (also known as Gaijintchi 外人っち and originally Ketotchi in Japan) is a special adult character introduced on the global release of the Original Tamagotchi. He evolves from the average character Masktchi.

[edit] Name

The name Bill was coined due to the character's similarity in appearance to Bill Clinton. This visual similarity is later played out in Bill's personality traits.

The original Japanese name was Ketotchi, where Keto was a derogatory word for Westerners. The name was later changed to Gaijintchi, which means "foreigner" or "outsider".

[edit] Appearance

American artwork of Bill, circa 1997.

Bill has had varying appearances, though he remains to be a large head with legs. In his original Japanese artwork, he was portrayed with a large, stereotype American head with blond hair, wearing blue pants and brown shoes. This later became the appearance he took on for his Version 3 appearance, though his Version 3 appearance also included arms behind his back, as well as blue eyes.

In is American portrayal in 1997, his head had much less detail, and had brown hair and stick legs, much like Oyajitchi. The PC game and video adaptations also showed him with arms.

Despite his masculine appearance and name, Bill may actually be male or female.

[edit] Personality

Due to his secretive nature, Bill's personality remains shrouded in mystery. However, he is shown to have a love for music and enjoy playing the saxophone. On the Version 3, his favorite food is beef, and his least favorite food is grapes.
