King Wahwah moves slowly, has high health, great standing range and a massive Omni Strike area. His devastating attack is evenly distributed into three hits, guaranteed to inflict knockback on each. He has many knockbacks himself, which can be helpful or hindering depending on the situation. What makes Wahwah difficult is that his debut stage contains restrictions, preventing the use of common units.
Born in Year 1196 of the cosmic calendar, he earned a crown through his military service and advancement of the sciences. Annoyed that his kid brother is more famous for a reality show.

Amongst the first seven Advent Bosses, King Wahwah appears to represent the sin of pride. Despite being implied to envy his younger brother in his English description, pride is still more likely, as Hannya's mask already symbolizes jealousy and the only alternative is Queen B, who fits much better with lust.
His name is a play on the word "chihuahua".
His Japanese name, Earl Chiwawan, is a portmanteau of chiwawa, meaning "chihuahua", and wan, the Japanese onomatopoeia for a dog's bark.
The boke mentioned in his Japanese description is the "funny man" in a manzai comedy act; it can also refer to when a comedian purposely acts like a fool on television.
He was mentioned by name in Mistress Celeboodle's Japanese description 2 years before he was introduced.
According to their Japanese descriptions, Mistress Celeboodle and King Wahwah are a manzai comedy duo with Mistress Celeboodle as the tsukkomi (the short-tempered "straight man" who takes things seriously) and King Wahwah as the boke (the airheaded "funny man" who gets everything wrong).
The combined descriptions of King Wahwah, Everlord Wanwan and Mistress Celeboodle imply that the little brother mentioned in Wahwah’s description is Wanwan, which is not only because Wanwan is a variant of Wahwah but also because Mistress Celeboodle's description states that she married a chihuahua reality TV star. (Wanwan and Wahwah are based off of chihuahuas). Thus, this leads to Wahwah being Mistress Celeboodle’s brother-in-law.
This is confirmed in Wahwah's Japanese description, which included the name of his younger brother years before he was added.
It can be inferred that the two dogs pulling his chariot are a more haggard female Dagshund and Mistress Celeboodle. Note the bandana worn by the frontmost dog (the bunny ears) and the wig and tufts of hair on the other dog.
