Buddhist Monkey

Buddhist Monkey is a fictional character in the cartoon series Happy Tree Friends.

Character Bio

Buddhist Monkey was originally going to be a character in the HTF series but the creators thought he didn't fit in with the rest so instead of getting rid of him they gave him his own show, which currently has had only two episodes. These episodes were originally exclusive for the second and third DVDs. However, in June 2006, the episode "Enter The Garden" was released on the website. As his name implies, he is a monkey who lives his life in the way of Buddha ("Buddhist Monk"-ey). He has brown fur with four dots in the shape of a square on his forehead and wears what appears to be a brown, monk-like robe with a number of beads worn as a belt. He is often very calm and enjoys peaceful libraries and gardens, but he is known for his sudden rages when the evil Generic Tree Ninjas ruin books and destroy gardens. He has only ever killed the ninjas and nobody else. His show's premise appears to parody popular action anime, such as Dragon Ball Z. He has made several cameo appearances in the regular episodes. Such appearances include Buddhist Monkey playing on a cinema screen and Cub playing a claw-grabbing prize machine with an image of Buddhist Monkey on the side of it. Since Buddhist Monkey is considered a fictional character in the HTF world, he is the only character who has not died due to his ineligibility to participate in the series's regular happenings.
