Thursday is a recurring character in the Disgaea series. Since being built by Jennifer at the age of 5, Thursday the All Purpose Robot has always been by her side. Working together with both her and Gordon, he has become a powerful force on their team. When Gordon is sent out to defeat the Overlord, Thursday willingly joins his struggle.

Despite being a robot, Thursday seems to have a heart. Even if he is severely damaged and on the verge of breaking down, Thursday continues to fight alongside Gordon and bring about justice. He also seems to be very calm when dealing with various obstacles and can be very sarcastic at times. Thursday usually begins or ends his sentences with "beep beep blip beep".

He returns in Disgaea 2 with Gordon and Jennifer, but like Jennifer, he is knocked out and doesn't participate in the battle.

He, along with Jennifer and Gordon, appears as a DLC in Disgaea 3. In it, he attempts to be a teacher. The reason for this is that Gas Prices are high and he needs money to buy fuel for himself. Mao challenges Thursday to battle, saying that if Thursday can beat him, he can become a teacher. Thursday then prepares for battle (while also targeting Almaz. Afterwards, Mao doesn't let him be a teacher but still hires him as a research assistant (while secretly planning to modify him into a super weapon). In battle, Thursday can Magichange into a Bow.

[edit] Trivia

  • In the Japanese version, Thursday has a female voice actor, as opposed to the English version, where he is voiced by a man.
  • Thursday's name may be a reference to "Man Friday", a character in Robinson Crusoe. This term has passed into idiomatic usage, referring to a faithful servant (which Thursday certainly is).
