Biography

Appearance

She is an anthropomorphic tambourine with a red face.

Depends on her feeling, however, her face can turns cyan.

Personality

Most of the time, Donko is the very lovely, kind maiden. However, she will immediately become jealous and angry if she sees someone (especially if it's female) together with Don (her crush).

In Namco High, her personality is different than what she had in Taiko no Tatsujin series. Here, Donko is somewhat rude and will become angry if someone says something bad about her, but from the inside she's actually a nice person.

Background

Just like how Don and Katsu were born, Donko was originally a normal tambourine until she was fused with a tamashi from the The Great Spirit.

It is unknown on how she had a big crush on Don. She later followed the Taiko drum duo into Tokyo. She has since been practicing her shinobue skill in order to participate in the festival.

In Namco High, it was revealed that she dumped Don for unknown reason, and usually refers to Don as her ex-boyfriend.
