'''Blue''' is a member of the [[Brothers Bear]] who appears in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' Blue lives in a [[Blue's Beach Hut|beach hut]] located in [[Cotton-Top Cove]].  
'''Blue''' is one of the [[Brothers Bear]]s in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]''. He lives in a hut that is the first location of [[Cotton-Top Cove]], Blue's Beach Hut. His main characteristic is how he often feels discouraged and sad.


Blue's name perfectly describes his character because he is usually depressed (that is, he constantly "has the blues"), which is reflected in the song that plays when the player enters his hut: it is a slowed-down, downtrodden version of the usual Brothers Bear theme. The reason why he is depressed when [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] first meet him is because almost all of his brothers forgot about his birthday. The only Brother Bear that remembered was [[Blizzard (character)|Blizzard]], but he lives too far from Blue to deliver his birthday present.
== Summary ==
Blue's name is derived from the word "blue". In his case, this refers to two things: Blue constantly "has the blues" and his fur color is blue. The former attribute is reflected in the original version from a slowed-down, downtrodden variant of the Brothers Bear theme playing as background music in his location.


If the Kongs deliver the [[Present (Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!)|Present]] to Blue, he will cheer up and end up giving them his present, which is a [[Bowling Ball]], as he has no use for it. Regardless, he will still be pleased that he at least received a gift.
His sadness stems from how nobody remembered his birthday. It is later revealed that [[Blizzard (character)|Blizzard]], the Brothers Bear of [[K3]], did remember Blue's birthday and even got him a [[Present (Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!)|Present]]. He cannot deliver it because they live too far away from each other, so he requests [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] to do it instead.


When the Kongs give the Bowling Ball to [[Bazooka]], he will allow Kiddy and Dixie to reach a hidden [[Banana Bird Cave]].
When the [[Kong]]s re-enter Blue's Beach Hut with the Present, Blue cheers up and happily unwraps it. The Present contains a [[Bowling Ball]], which Blue claims to have no use for. He gives the item to the Kongs and allows them to keep it.
