* VillainProtagonist: While most of his demeanors involve making food service workers lives hell, there are instances where he gets so fed up he ''murders'' people. His most notable victims are Grim and Roger. He also refuses to pay for absolutely anything.

WordOfGod even calls him his third evilest character in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsdySZRSmzI The Baku Series: GOOD TO EVIL]], outright saying the places Baku sends people to is a PlaceWorseThanDeath.

->'''''Baku:''' "You about to sell me a single shoe?"''
->'''''Felix:''' "We do sales. Buy 2 get 1 free. Some people come out with three shoes."''

A nonchalant worker at the Shoe Store.

* CloudCuckooLander: A LiteralMinded cat who sells shoes by the piece rather than the pair, also giving fake monopoly money along with the purchase.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment:
->'''''Baku:''' "What's good dawg? Y'all doing a shoe sale?"''
->'''''Felix:''' "I'm a cat."''
* ExactWords: "Buy 2 get 1 free." He does not mean one free pair of shoes but a single shoe.
* LiteralMinded: Takes all of Baku's sarcastic insults and allusions literally.
->'''''Baku:''' "You on monkey business?"''
->'''''Felix:''' "I never been a monkey."''
* MirrorCharacter: Acts just like Baku does in the earlier videos.
* StraightMan: Inverted. The series formula usually has Baku trying to get an extremely unusual request done at a place of business with the worker acting as the StraightMan, astounded by Baku's foolishness. In "Shoe Sale", it's Felix who gives an extremely unusual offer as the business worker with Baku acting as the straight man trying to buy some genuine shoes.
* SuperStoicShopkeeper: An unmoving person who unlike other workers in the series never insults Baku but doesn't put up with his usual business either.

* KarmaHoudiniWarranty: Double Subverted. After spending four seasons as an InvincibleVillain [[VillainProtagonist Protagonist]] Baku ended up getting caught by the police and was promptly arrested for [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking murder, speeding in a neighborhood, and prank calling food services]] and was sentenced for thirty years. It turned out, though, to be an {{Unishment}} for Baku. That is until Baku coughs in prison, causing the guard to be paranoid about him having [[UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic the Corona Virus]] and promptly putting Baku under house arrest instead. [[CoolAndUnusualPunishment Where he is forced to record mixtapes with Lil' Broomstick.]]

Added DiffLines:

** Seems to have a thing for bread products. The videos usually have Baku order pizzas, sandwiches, burritos and most commonly chicken biscuits [[UnconventionalFoodOrder without any meat, cheese or just any ingredients except for the bread parts of the food]]. On top of that he seems to be a regular customer at the Bread Bank and has a small understanding for various types of breads out there, enough to order specific types of bread by name (baguettes, brioche, ciabatta).


Added DiffLines:

* UnconventionalFoodOrder: Boneless Pizza is surprisingly his most tame food order. Baku regularly orders food dishes without their main ingredients (chicken biscuit with no chicken, Egg fooyung without the egg, beef burrito without any of the fillings including the beef).

** Whatever happened to his money. He does get some of it stolen on screen, but he admits that was barely any of it and doesn't seem bothered at all. He also offhandedly mentions owning a ''mansion'' in "Pack Ya Bags", but during "Job Interview", Bill pulls his credit report and finds he's $400,000 in debt with no house and no car.

Added DiffLines:

** Ironically, the murder charges were undeserved. As Baku's lawyer points out, the police had no evidence of two of the three murders, and the third person he allegedly murdered was ''standing in the same room as him''. That said, the whole thing was a KangarooCourt anyway, with someone Baku had repeatedly antagonized before as the judge.
