Daboo of the Dead (亡者デブウ Mōja Debuu, Dead Debuu) is a Zombie enemy introduced in the Advent Stage Dead on Debut.
Enemy
Daboo of the Dead is truly a massive threat, with a whopping 3,000,000 HP and 30,000 damage along with a massive Omni Strike range of 800, on top of that, he even has immunities to almost every debuff you can think of. Unlike most other Zombies, he cannot burrow past your cats, yet he can still revive with 10% HP an unlimited number of times.
Strategy
Since he has almost 100% uptime on his slow, any unit he can knock back in one hit will likely be unable to ever reach Daboo, instead allowing him to chain attacks on them until they die. For this reason and due to how few units can outrange him, it is recommended to use slow immune units, fast units and tanky units above all; the more of these features, the better.
Meatshields that work great include Wushu Cat, boosted Ramen Cat, talented Riceball Cat and Manic Eraser Cat.
Titan Cat variants, especially Manic Jamiera, work well against him too, being able to block him and damage him for a relatively long time. The problem usually comes in doing that while also dealing with whatever supports him, meaning that units should be picked with his supporters in mind.
Do not worry too much about his revive ability. It takes a while for him to revive with relatively little health, plus Daboo is usually the last "major threat" to die in the first place. If he isn't Zombie-Killed, a level 20+ Holy Blast can be used to instantly finish him off due to only reviving with 10% max health, the exact percentage Holy Blast does to him.

Trivia
- His name is derived from the Japanese word debu, meaning "fat" or "chubby". This is more obvious with his Japanese name, that being Debuu.
- Amongst the first seven Advent Bosses, Daboo of the Dead represents the sin of gluttony.
- He bears more than a passing resemblance to Oogie Boogie, the main antagonist of the Tim Burton movie The Nightmare Before Christmas.
- His minimum money drop bring 4,444 is likely a reference to how, in Japanese, one of the two pronunciations for the number 4 sounds exactly like the Japanese word for death. Moreover, his English name has four words while his Japanese name has four syllables (亡者デブウ, Mō-ja De-buu).
- Prior to the Version 5.10 Update, he had Long Distance with an effective range of 0~800.
- He and Zuche have the longest revival delay of all Zombies, at 20 seconds.
- He is the first non-collab enemy to have Omni Strike and the first non-stationary enemy besides Walpurgisnacht to have any immunities.
- He has the highest health of all Advent Bosses and is tied with Johnnyleon for the highest health of all Zombies.
- He has most of his stats in a multiple of 3, sporting 3 million health, 30,000 attack damage, 300 range, 3 knockbacks, slowing cats for 300f and reviving with 300,000 health after 600f.
