– Johnny Bepp's main catchphrase

Johnny Bepp (ジョニー別府 Johnny Beppu) is one of the characters in the Aikatsu! anime series and various Data Carddass Aikatsu! specials where he serves as the player's supervisor along with Orihime Mitsuishi. He is the former homeroom teacher of Ichigo, Aoi, and Ran and former trainer and mentor to Mizuki and Masquerade. He is currently the homeroom teacher of Akari Ōzora, Juri Kurebayashi, and Yū Hattori.

Appearance

Johnny has shoulder-length wavy ash brunette and green eyes. He has light tan skin, a mustache and goatee, and is commonly seen in is signature green track suit with clip-on suspender straps on his waist. After his meeting with Sunny in Episode 128, he later changes out his green track suit for a red one custom made by the former.

Personality

Johnny is a lively person with a bit of a flair for dramatics which often confuses his students and everyone around him. He often uses English words and phrases though they're apparently hard to comprehend as even Kaede couldn't understand him. He's silly and fun and sometimes tries to be a Casanova, but is seldom successful. Despite his energy, Johnny is shown to be a humble, wise, and insightful person who can be serious when needed.

Background

Johnny is a dancing genius who is also said to be one of the best coaches in the world. In his youth, he was the choreographer for Masquerade and has since then remained good friends with Orihime Mitsuishi. He was also part of a legendary dance unit known as Sunny & Johnny.

It is revealed that in Episode 139, Johnny has a younger sister named Elisa Bepp. Johnny loves his sister dearly as can be seen from how much he cares for his sister's wedding, and how much he doesn't want to let go.

Relationships

Johnny used to be the choreographer for Masquerade, which Orihime belonged in. After Masquerade had split up, Orihime became headmistress of Starlight School and Johnny became a dance teacher, remaining a partner of Orihime. He often calls her "Academy Mother".
Like Orihime, Johnny knew her back from her Masquerade days.
Johnny and Naoto get along well as both acquaintances and co-workers. He often calls him "Coolkawa Teacher" in season 3 and 4, a pun of his name written in Kanji.
Sunny and Johnny were formerly in a dance unit called "Sunny & Johnny", and are great friends. Johnny wears the jersey suits Sunny made for him everyday.
Elisa is Johnny's younger sister. Since their father passed away when they were young, Johnny has been taking on the fatherly role and took great care of Elisa.
