The character names in Kataow are amazing because first, you have Kipo— lovely name, love how it sounds, and I’m it has some amazing meanings that tie in to Kipo as a character. 
Then you have Wolf. You never learn her previous name, but Kipo calls her Wolf (full name: Wolfatha Christie the Fourth) and Wolf accepts it. She never asks people to stop calling her that. It’s a perfect name for Wolf.
You’ve got Benson. I haven’t met many Bensons (usually, just ‘Ben’) but it sounds familiar and nice. Benson is a nice guy. A good friend.
Mandu is a blue four-eyed and six-legged pig, named after the dumplings Kipo’s dad used to make. It’s a little odd but hey, mute pig— and it has sentimental meaning to Kipo— so it fits Mandu perfectly.
You’ve got Kipo’s family Lio (not an uncommon name) and Song (beautiful name) and Hugo— they all fit well with Kipo. 
Hugo later takes the name Scarlemagne— a play on ‘Scar’ and Charlemagne’. That’s so clever! 
There’s also Jamack, Troy, Dr Emilia (sounds like a normal human name, but still cool for an antagonist), and may we not forget Yumyan Hammerpaw. 
And then you have… Dave. Just Dave. Dave the Bug. Dave the metamorphosing bug mute. This is so hilarious, it’s perfect.

For those of you who are (rightfully) livid about Velma for how it disservices representation in animation (especially with Mindy Kaling being a TERF)...
...here's something to make you feel a little better.

Because ultimately, these are the kinds of shows that need/deserve attention. Not the self-serving, toxic, and hypocritical slactivism you see going on at HBO Max.

Recently finished doing a rewatch of one of my favorite series of all time, Kipo and The Age of Wonderbeasts. Felt the urge to draw some fanart from the ending epilogue. 💜 This show and story is an absolute masterpiece from beginning to end. The characters, writing, backgrounds, music, story, designs…. everything about it is 10/10 chefs kiss! 🥰🔥 I love these five friends so much.

I would like to take a moment to discuss Benson and his trauma for a moment
The first and most obvious is the fact that he lost his original family (wether that was bio parents, siblings, or just members of his group who were raising him is unclear) and was left to fend for himself on the surface as a young child. Now this is not a new situation for the characters in kataow. The whole show literally revolves around Kipo ending up along on their surface and separated from her family. Additionally Wolf and Hugo both also experience being separated from family and made to fend for themselves on the surface. However out of all these characters Benson seems to receive the least sympathy and concern from the rest of the team.
Of course one key difference in his backstory that separates him from characters like Wolf and Hugo is that unlike them he made an ally and friend pretty early into his time alone. He couldn’t have been more than 10 when he met dave which is pretty young to be in your own especially is you are (as I assume benson was) used to having an adult around to care for you. While dave was able to in some capacity take care of benson like a parental figure (as old dave, buff dave, and dave dave) he is also regularly not able to do that (as teen dave, toddler dave, and baby dave). This would have essentially made Benson, a very young child who until recent did have an adult to watch him, be forced into the role of a part time parent. I know dave isn’t exactly the same as a human baby but as we see in the show he would still have cried (potentially altering dangerous mutes to their location) needed to be fed, wandered off the way a toddler does and most importantly be rendered unable to protect or care for child Benson. Half of the time Benson would have been a child alone on the surface having to survive while also raising and taking care of the equivalent to a baby/small child. Even at age 16 we see him acting as the main caretaker of Dave in his younger forms.
I’m fact benson does a lot of being a caretaker throughout the show. He shows kipo ratland to cheer her up, he keeps her secret about being part mute, he runs after Wolf when she gets upset about kipo being part mute. When kipo transforms into the mega jaguar for the forest time and accidentally dislocates his shoulder he plays off his pain and injury as not a big deal so she won’t feel bad or guilty about it. When his backpack gets knocked into the gold along with kipo’s anchor he starts crying and later when kipo transformed and gets stuck he blames himself for the situation never once taking the time to mourn the loss of his personal items that were also lost.
So we have a young boy who has been placed in a caretaking role from a very young age in dangerous and hostile world. One where he has to avoid being eaten, starving to death, freezing to death, dehydration, and being kidnapped and sold to scarelemage all while being a part time parent from the ages of 10-16. AND THEN to top it all off Kipo (and the fandom) doesn’t ever seem to fully include him in the found family. Kipo calls wolf her sister within the first day of knowing her but never refers to benson as family I’m that way. When song gets transformed back kipo calls wolf to join in the family group hug but not benson. This kid takes care of everyone around him but is rarely shown that same care and it just makes me so sad. He may be the oldest in the group but he’s still just a teenager.
