"Hapidanbui (はぴだんぶい) is an all-star type group of pre-existing Sanrio characters that were popular in the 80s and 90s.

The all male group consists of:
• 🐶 Pochacco
• 🐧 Tuxedo Sam
• 🐸 Keroppi
• 🐧 Badtz-Maru
• 🐟 Hangyodon
• 🦆 Pekkle

The name Hapidanbui is short for happī ni naritai danshitachi, bui ji kaifuku o nerau (ハッピーになりたい男子たち、V字回復をねらう) which roughly translates to "boys who want to become happy aim for a V-shaped recovery". The Hapidanbui characters have gone up in the Sanrio Character Ranking since Sanrio created the group and began promoting them."
