Despite his flaws, however, he seems to be kind-hearted and has good intentions overall, such as in the good ending where he and Mugman burn all the soul contracts, setting everyone free.Ĭuphead also seems to have a vengeful side to him. His personality was mostly inspired by the 'charming, yet trouble-making' character archetype, as seen in the protagonists of early cartoons.Īs seen in the introduction, Cuphead seems to have a somewhat greedy personality, apparently willing to risk anything to get what he wants, causing the infamous bet which he nearly cost him both of their souls. He (in contrast to his twin brother) often takes quite the amount of risks. He is shown to be the more confident, fun-loving and slightly cheeky type. Although his confidence and drive for adventure can lead him to appear reckless or get him into trouble, at his core, he is a kind-hearted soul who wants to do good-but has the tendency to leap before he looks.Ĭuphead seems to be a daredevil. Overall, Cuphead's appearance is reminiscent of character designs from classical 1930s cartoons, of which the game's art style is designed around.Ĭuphead is typically a nice person and 'kidult' alongside his younger brother Mugman, enjoying an easy-going and good life, but is relentlessly optimistic. In some artwork, he is also shown to have fire rising out of his head. As a demon, his red colors change to purple and he now has a bitten straw and evil-looking yellow eyes with black and red pupils, a maniacal smile, and sharp teeth. If the answer 'Yes' is chosen in the cutscene with the Devil before his battle-triggering the bad ending-his appearance dramatically changes. When used as a Super Art, his ghost is muscular and his expression is determined. In the center of Cuphead's ghost's chest, there is a pink heart which can be parried to resurrect him. His shorts and legs are now replaced with a ghost tail, his straw is now a halo, and his expression is that of melancholy. His ghost still has the cup-like head and gloves, but his appearance is now a ghostly blue.

Upon taking damage, Cuphead will separate at the waist, with his straw breaking 20% of the way up from the bottom to the top, although both Cuphead and his straw will pull themselves back together.

As an anthropomorphic cup, he is a light gray cup and his is made out of either ceramic or porcelain.

To emulate the way characters were drawn in the game’s time period, his coloring is inconsistent he is sometimes depicted wearing red or yellow boots, and/or yellow gloves instead.

He is mostly seen wearing a black, long-sleeve shirt, white gloves, red shorts and brown shoes. He always has a determined expression in the face of danger. His face consists of eyes that are very close together with black pie-cut pupils, and a small red nose. As his name suggests, Cuphead's head is a wide cup with milk inside, topped with a red and white striped straw.
