Sharkette Patinglao

Charlene "Sharkette" Patinglao is the public relations official and part-time assistant in Butthurt Philippines. She's an attractive young woman with blue-green hair with a cowlick similar to a shark's fin. She also has sharp teeth similar to that of a shark's. Sharkette is known to be cheerful and pleasant which earned her a special place in the BHP Gang. Her favorite food is crispy pata (deep-fried pork leg) which she eats once a day as a running gag.

Character History
Sharkette first appeared on August 19, 2013. Her resume impressed Lico and Halloween Ghost. Upon getting hired on the spot, Sharkette showed her toothy smile which scared Lico and HG. However, several days have passed and everyone got used to her unusual teeth. In later strips, it was revealed that Sharkette is an otaku and she has a strong fondness for deep-fried pork legs.

Inspiration for the Character
Sharkette was inspired by the character Ranka Lee in the anime series Macross Frontier. Both Ranka and Sharkette have green hair (albeit Sharkette's hair is more of blue-green) and a cheerful disposition.
