Bojji

 (ボッジ, Bojji) is the main protagonist of Ousama Ranking, he's the crown prince of the Bosse Kingdom, being the son of King Bosse and Queen Sheena as well as the step-son of Queen Hilling and older half-brother of Prince Daida.

Appearance
Bojji is an abnormally-petite young boy, he has black hair with forelock hanging down across his forehead as well as black eyes and rosy cheeks.

He wears a blue suit, white tights, black shoes, and a tiny crown on his head. After Bojji loses his original crown, Kage makes him a near identical one using fabric.

Personality
Bojji is intelligent, empathetic and hyper-aware of the people around him. He's kind to a fault as well as extremely giving of himself, even in situations where he may be hurt or humiliated.

Due to being unable to hear, many in the Kingdom of Bosse dismiss Bojji as deaf and dumb (an old, non-pejorative way of referring to a mute individual), however, he's extremely hard-working and sincere which often draws people to him even if they cannot always understand him.

Plot
Born abnormally small, weak, and deaf, Bojji has lived a quiet, frustrating life in the shadow of his father, the legendary King Bosse.

Things finally start changing for the young prince when he meets Kage, an orphaned young thief with similarly tragic circumstances.

After the death of his father, Bojji is passed-over for kingship in favor of his younger brother, leading him and Kage to set out on their own adventure to make him strong enough to be a king.

This leads them to the Underworld, a neighboring kingdom where Bojji finally meets a tutor who can assist him, the fanciful Prince Despa.

However, in his absence, the kingdom has fallen to the plotting of Lady Miranjo, a mysterious former ally of Bosse. Now it's up to Bojji to unravel the mysteries surrounding his father and reclaim the kingdom.

Cursed Body
Despite being a member of the Giant race, Bojji was born abnormally small with a physically weak body as well as an inability to hear. In fact, according to Despa, Bojji has no physical strength whatsoever and no amount of training or exercise will ever improve his condition because there is literally nothing to improve on. It's revealed later on in the story that Bojji's weak body is the result of an extremely strong curse, one so powerful it actively repels the cursed mists of the Underworld. The origins of this curse goes back decades to when Bojji's father, King Bosse, was just a wandering adventurer, he'd made a patch with a devil to gain unparalleled physical strength and vitality by stealing it from his first-born son. This power boost was enough to make him the strongest man on earth, but also resulted in Bosse having a drastically reduced lifespan.

Giant
Although he lacks their physical might and stature, Bojji is still a Giant and possesses a few of their other notable attributes. For example, Bojji cannot be poisoned as Giants are infamous for their sturdy stomachs, making them immune to most poisons.

Superhuman Speed
Bojji possesses incredible agility and reflexes, which seem unaffected by his curse. This is the result of daily training with the giant snake, Mitsumata, which taught Bojji both footwork and evasion techniques. Bojji can easily dodge between most attacks, even those launched by master-level combatants and is the only person who's actually managed to avoid Ouken's superhumanly fast "Shirasampe" technique.

Hyper Focus & Lip Reading
Another skill taught by Mitsumata, Bojji has enhanced situational awareness, enabling him to sense his immediate surroundings with exceptional clarity even in spite of his deafness. Bojji can also use his hyper focus to read lips (a rare skill in the world of Ousama Ranking), so long as he can see a person's mouth, Bojji can understand their words. Bojji's skill at lip reading is great he can even read crude, inhuman mouths, such as Kage's.

Swordsmanship
Bojji's lack of physical strength makes him incapable of wielding most standard swords, even injuring himself when he tries using one. However, despite this, he's shown significant talent with lightweight swords like rapiers. After completing special training with Despa, Bojji has learned how to defeat enemies utilizing his agility and precision rather than raw power: To do this, Bojji first studied the physical weaknesses of as many species as possible and targets those flaws with pinpoint strikes from his tiny rapier. Bojji's talent with this fighting style is such that, according to Despa, he's capable of disabling a person without so much as leaving a mark. Bojji's speed, precision, and insight are great enough that he's even able to destroy a combatant's weapon with a single hit, with Despa even referring to this as Bojji's "secret technique", but says that it'll be unnecessary against most opponents. These new techniques have made Bojji the strongest man in the world, according to the Magic Mirror.

Intimidating Presence
Bojji is now so powerful that seasoned warriors, like Apeas and Zokku, are capable of sensing his relative skill and finding themselves intimidated by it. Even the immortal Ouken hesitated before choosing to fight Bojji.

Trivia

 * 's name likely derives from the Japanese words for "alone" (一人ぼっち, hitori bocchi) and "prince" (王子, Ōji).
 * Bojji's name can also be directly translated to the English word, "Bodge," which means, "to do something badly, especially to make or repair something badly because you do not have enough time or the right materials to do it properly". However, because Bojji's name is only rendered in katakana (a phonetic writing system) it's not known if this was intentional.
 * In an interview done with Sōsuke Tōka, it's revealed that Bojji's favorite color is indigo blue.
