Enter Miko and High Five – new recruits who fight glitches and reformat witnesses all before the store closes at 5 pm. Talk about a crazy job! Production Information Glitch Techs started production in 2016. In early 2019, Nickelodeon froze production of the episodes after the 20 in post production, and laid off several of the team members for reasons unknown. It was picked up by Netflix as part of a multi-year deal between Nickelodeon and Netflix, and it premiered on February 21, 2020. 20 episodes have been released so far across 2 seasons. As of now, no word has been given by Nickelodeon or Netflix over whether or not Glitch Techs will continue production. This leads to some fans assuming the show has been silently cancelled. Biography Miko is a 16-year-old Japanese-American girl who has a job working for Hinobi's technology store and is secretly working as a Glitch Tech. She is athletic, able to kick her legs high above her head. She is constantly running, and extremely hyper. Miko loves her job and has fun doing it. She is usually seen with High Five, working closely with him as partners on missions to defeat glitches. When not on a mission, she works with him as a receptionist at the Hinobi store in Bailley, and hangs out with him outside of work. When Miko was around six years old, about 10 years ago, her family had just moved into Bailley, and Miko, being the new kid, had trouble making friends. Miko was once given a pity invite to a birthday party at Joystick Junior's for Aileen Staropolis' eighth birthday. In the birthday room, Miko was brought on the stage with Aileen carrying her birthday cake, while the Cakey Von Smasher animatronic showed up programmed to threaten to smash the cake. When the Ralphie Bear animatronic showed up with a creepy smile and flashing eyes in front of Miko, Miko panicked and karate kicked it, decapitating the animatronic. The head landed in Aileen's cake ruining it, thus making her cry and all the other kids scream and back away from Miko. Miko tried to apologize and explain she was just scared and didn't mean to ruin everything, but no one seemed to listened. Ever since that incident, Miko was never invited to another birthday party again because the other kids were too afraid to go near her. Later on, Miko started to have better luck making friends and gaining popularity in town. At Joystick Junior's, where she would often spend time alone, Miko tried out a new game called "Sock Em' Rockers". After a while, she ended up being the first one to beat the high score up to one million, which got everyone's attention. Miko was finally praised for what she's good at, and all the gamer kids at Joystick Junior's began to love her for her amazing gamer skills and dance moves, making her one of the most popular gamers in town. There, Miko declared her own gamer tag "Me_K.O." At the end of the episode Tutorial Mode, after Inspector Barbara finished inspecting Bailley's Hinobi store, she communicates with an unknown person from Hinobi Research & Data. In this communication, she says that Miko, their "subject", and her friend Five have been showing great potential and that they can one day become assets to the Hinobi company. Also, Miko could really be the only one to help Hinobi R&D locate the mysterious glitch known as "Bolypius". Personality Miko Kubota has always had a knack playing video games, and usually beats them expertly. Due to her tomboyish behavior, she stands out from her family. Due to these differences, she often feels misunderstood in her family. Since Miko has a bad habit of rushing, reacting quickly without thinking first, she can be reckless at times. This could get her into bad situations, on one occasion losing her gauntlet to Ally, and accidentally destroying the tutorial system. Miko also tends to overreact and get into panic attacks whenever she feels like she’s in trouble. However, Miko also has many good qualities, such as her brilliant creativity, and gung-ho attitude, allowing her to face problems with a smile. She is enthusiastic with every aspect of the job, combining her athleticism with her gamer knowledge and instincts. She is the kind of girl who sticks with her teammates, doing her best for them. Unlike Five who's the one who takes time to think of different plans and strategies, Miko on the other hand is a faster learner through experience and adaptation, and doesn't like being slowed down by things such as tutorials, preferring to learn through action. However, as the series progresses, she starts to learn strategy from Five, and takes more time to think things through than in the earlier episodes. Relationships High Five As her partner, she likes to spend time with him working as a Glitch Techs , in the Hinobi store, and sometimes outside of work hours playing video games or doing something else fun. She trusts him, counting on him often in the field, and in return, gives him tips on games she's beaten before. In return, Five often acts as her voice of reason, keeping her from giving up, or being too gung-ho to act rationally, even if it may take time for her to understand. Mayumi Kubota She is Miko's mother. Miko dislikes how her mom is strict with her with doing something more "proactive" and doesn't show support for her love for video games. Despite this, they both love each other, becoming closer after Miko is given her job at Hinobi. Hugh Kubota Nica Kubota Miko's older sister. Nica is embarrassed to be seen with her due to being hyper, very tomboyish, and crazy at times in contrast of her public image. When they were younger, they were much closer, Nica having taught Miko how to play video games. They now have a back and forth relationship as sisters, but they both care for each other, even if both have contrasting personalities. Lexi Kubota Miko's younger sister. Lexi considers her sister not accomplishing any real achievements since video games are not considered one in her book. Lexi knows about the Glitch Techs, and will not betray her sister, because of "sibling code," but both of them care for each other despite their differences. However, they grow closer since Lexi convinced Miko to train her to be a better fighter. Phil Altiere He is the Hinobi boss at Bailley and he seem to care about her, even though his face expression does not often show it. Miko knows that and respects him as her boss. However, she and Five get into antics that bug him sometimes. BITT It is the robot helper of the Glitch Techs and Hinobi, it obeys her and both of them have a good relationship as friends. She finds his design cute, and his abilities exciting. When she and Five first activate BITT, she hugs him and exclaims, "I want one for Christmas!" Mitch Williams He can be considered her enemy at times, because he tried to mind wipe both her and High Five, and because he frequently tries to humiliate both of them due to being low levels on the team. Haneesh Jyoshi He does not mind her being on the team, so both of them have a good relationship as co-workers. Zahra Rashid She does not mind her being on the team, so both of them have a good relationship as co-workers. Emma Deveraux The Hinobi scientist relationship with her has yet to be fully determined. Bergy He has a good relationship with her, working together with High Five on missions, and both of them are good friends. Nix He doesn't mind her being on the team so both are in good terms, especially after she and Five saved him. Casino He was against her when he was possessed by a glitch, but after he was turned back to normal, he became friends with her and reconciled with his childhood friend, High Five. Ridley Miko considers Ridley to be her friend. They were shown to be friendly, even "Glitch Sisters" towards each other in the episode "The Glitch Modder", under the presumption that Miko was also a Modder. Their relationship was very up-and-down after she reveals she is a Glitch Tech. However, Miko still seems to think she is a good kid. Ridley also holds at least some amount of friendship for her, as she goes back to help save them after releasing a bunch of Glitches in "The New Recruit". Appearance Miko is a Japanese-American bottom-heavy teenager of medium height, with fair skin, pink-tinted cheeks and nose, black eyes and long, straight blue-violet hair with magenta sheens, trimmed in a hime cut with blunt bangs.

Powers, Abilities, and Equipment Electronics repair: Since she is part of Glitch Techs’ tech support, Miko is shown to be able to repair machinery such as a whack a mole (bunny in this case) arcade machine in "Collection Quest", and even tested a customer's handheld Hinobi console to check if it didn’t break after she accidentally dropped it in "Going, Going, Gauntlet!". Mind wipe immunity: As seen in "Age of Hinobi" and "The Glitch Modder", for reasons currently unknown, her mind can't be erased with the mind wipe blast of Glitch Tech gauntlets.

It has the following abilities: Cat bubble: The beam shoots at the target and captures it midair in a pink and blue bubble full of cats that also plays electronic music. Mind Wipe Energy Blasts Weapon and Shield Formation Hammer: a translucent magenta hammer, is her most recurrent weapon.

Biography Hector Nieves was born and raised in Bailley. He is the son of Emilio Nieves and the grandson of Papi and Abuela Nieves. He was raised by Emilio for most of his childhood. When he was 5 years old,[2] to afford to make a reservation to have his birthday party at Joystick Jr., he worked hard to help his dad raise money by doing many jobs, including working at his Papi's food truck, Taco Dragon. Unfortunately, his party was ruined by the absence of his favorite animatronic, Ralphie Bear.[3] Five would also accompany his dad to work regularly. He grew up loving video games, and this love of video games was supported and encouraged by his father who would often wait with him outside the Hinobi store for new releases. His dad would also take Five to Geri Lawson's vintage video game store every day after school.[4] It's not specified when, but before the events of the series, Five's dad was arrested for hacking a firewall.[4] After that, Five began living with his grandparents and helping them with the food truck more. Fortunately, his grandparents also support his love for video games.[5] After helping to stop a Glitch with Miko Kubota, they were both hired as employees of their local Hinobi store and as Glitch Techs.[5] Personality High Five is a nice and caring boy who loves playing video games and will do anything to achieve his goal, never giving up. Generally, Five respects most people but isn't afraid to stand up to others when he feels it's necessary to do so. While Five is usually logical and responsible, when under stress and pressure (or a strong emotion in general), he becomes impulsive and doesn’t think things fully out or clearly. When scared or nervous, he’ll even begin to over-think things and get stuck in his head. Five does have a tendency to fear the unknown, and when assigned a job, he is often afraid to fail it, leading people like Mitch to steer him wrong. Five often gets stuck in his own head, unable to act in the moment, his mind too full to go the distance. When Five does get out of his own head, he's capable of putting the puzzle of any game together, such as in "Castle Crawl" when he kept all the loot gathered just in case he would need something later. His plans rarely fail, and when his instincts catch up, he's one of the most dangerous Glitch Techs around. While Five is someone who prefers to think before he acts, when provoked with strong emotions such as anger or panic, he can become impulsive and will jump on people or even sometimes, though rarely, reset their memory on purpose or on accident. Five also shows a preference to stick to and follow the rules but isn't afraid, albeit hesitant, to break them. Five is also shown to lie sometimes keep himself and friends from getting in trouble or to impress others. And often those lies get him into trouble and will make a situation worse as shown in "The Real Glitch Techs". Appearance He is tall, very slim, and has fairly dark tan skin. blushed cheeks He has a puffy hairstyle with a galaxy blueish purple/indigo hue, along with slim arms and legs. In his casual wear, he can usually be seen wearing a green graphic t-shirt with a black elbow length shirt underneath. He also sports grey skinny jeans and a pair of Hinobi sneakers. Sometimes he wears a green hoodie with the number "5" on it. On other occasions, he can be seen wearing a different shirt from the graphic green shirt such as a yellow one in "BUDS" and in a flashback in "Collection Quest". In "Ralphie Bear", Five can be seen wearing a white Ralphie Bear themed tee. Five is also seen wearing a yellow hoodie with "05" on it very briefly when Miko was looking for him with Lexi's phone in "Age of Hinobi" While working in the Hinobi store, his outfit is still the same except he wears a blue Hinobi polo shirt over his black elbow length shirt instead of one of his graphic tees. Five can also be seen wearing a standard Hinobi tech support jumpsuit, and he also is seen wearing glitch tech armor when his tech gauntlet is activated. Powers, Abilities, and Equipment Cooking: Before he joined the Glitch Techs, he shown to be a competent cook in his family food truck.

Programming and electronics knowledge: He is sometimes seen reading books on programming in his down time.[4] In "Ping", he demonstrated that he is capable of making modifications to arcade game cabinets. Glitch Tech Gauntlet: Basic equipment of any Glitch Tech member. Jet Boots: First acquired in "Going, Going, Gauntlet!", this upgrade allowed Five to jump higher and fly, but he initially had inept control. They were eventually traded in to combine Five and Miko's EXP into legally keeping Ally, though Five earned them back before their reappearance in "Collection Quest". Skins StegaZaur Exo Suit: A large, heavy-duty armor skin first featured in "Smashozaurs", directly inspired by Five's favorite character from the series. The suit was primarily used to match against the strength of Casino's TriTops form, though it was eventually wrecked. Modded Wizard (temporary): A custom mod skin of a wizard from the game "Fire Age 4", created by Ridley and compatible with the data of her modified Glitches, allowing Five to battle and capture them. Hoverboard: First seen in "Smashozaurs", it's another travel tool primarily used for quick escapes. It can carry about two people. Speed boost: Augments his speed for a short period of time. Duplication Mod: Created by Ridley, it is a energy blast that makes a glitch split into two exact duplicates. Stationary cannon: a big cannon similar to a tank's with a powerful blast but needs the help of another glitch tech to deploy and use. He and Nameless used it together in its only appearance, so it is not clear whether it belongs to Five or Nameless. Biography Phil, as the boss, dispatches the Glitch Techs to take care of Glitches and to clean up the messes they cause. This role is shared with BITT, who helps with directing Glitch Techs around, arranging for backup, and dispatching specialized powerups. He is also a veteran Glitch Tech himself, and while he rarely joins in the hunt himself, he is capable and skilled in his own right. It's revealed in "BITT Prime" that, when he was younger, Phil was mindwiped by someone from Hinobi to hide something he discovered in the development labs. Knowing it was coming, he prepared a message to himself with the relevant data, and covertly programmed BITT to be able to lead him back to it. It just took longer than expected to happen. Personality Phil tends to be rather deadpan and stone-faced and very no-nonsense, but he does have a soft side. He is firm, but reasonable. He is also good at hiding problems from the higher-ups until they're resolved. According to BITT, he’s really into buddy cop shows. Episode 2 also showed that he tended to take a lot of shortcuts when running the store. Relationship Miko and Five Mitch Barbara They show to go along well for being former companions in their youth. Even so, Phil shows to be a little nervous in the inspections of Barbara. Joan Fishback He shows that he doesn't like to deal with her, as he was initially blatantly dismissive and tried to ignore her call. They show to have a rivalry and are very bad terms, for a misunderstanding for the Glitch Kodama. Even after Phil demonstrated he was telling the truth, she still proceeded to catch the Glitch Kodama. Ridley He initially firmly opposed to her joining, but agreed after she repaired and upgraded BITT so that he was able to make donuts. She then caused an outbreak of glitches in the Hinobi tech headquarters, which resulted in Phil being forced to regretfully fire her. BITT BITT is Phil's bot partner who also helps run the Hinobi tech store and headquarters. They have been partners for over 20 years. Within BITT's files there are great secrets about Hinobi corporate that they both have been investigating. Kodama Kodama is Phil's Glitch pet, which was promptly taken away by Joan Fishback, as he seemed to have taken him from Dabney "territory" and lied about it. Powers Abilities and Equipment Glitch Tech Gauntlet: Upgrades: Bubble shield: a sphere shaped shield that can contain him and few more people, it's more durable and resistant then the normal shield as it is able to resist for a long time against an outbreak of glitches Biography Mitch is an employee at Bailley's local Hinobi game store, and the majority of his appearances throughout the series branch from seeing him work. He spends the majority of his time focused on the job of a Glitch Tech, tasked with the usual duty of capturing Glitches that escaped from faulty Hinobi video game consoles. He is a veteran Glitch Tech, and is currently the highest-ranking Tech on the community leaderboards. [3] Having worked in the Glitch Tech field for a lengthy period of time, he has solid tactics and skills that allow him the opportunity to conquer high-level challenges. Prior to his employment at Hinobi, Mitch was a renowned vlogger who would demonstrate his gameplay of various Hinobi video games, offering tips and tricks to his viewers. During this time and through his early days as a Glitch Tech, he was a member of the gamer group, The Furious Four, which comprised of himself and his three siblings, as revealed in the episode "I'm Mitch Williams". However, as he became obsessed with his duties at Hinobi, he quit vlogging and left the Furious Four altogether to live on his own in favour of being more focused on his job, particularly as a Glitch Tech rather than merely a storefront employee. He refuses to discuss his past with his co-workers, and furthermore, he has claimed his former abode, now solely belonging to his siblings, as "his turf", forbidding any other Techs from attending to matters at the residence. Personality Mitch is a complete egotist who happily abuses the company's technology to serve his own personal needs and constantly talks down to his coworkers. He also repeatedly used the mind-wipe technology to get food without paying, and once mind-wiped Five because Five beat him in a gaming tournament. Mitch is shown to care more about winning than the victims of Glitch attacks, as seen when Five's friend Casino was infected by a Possessor type Glitch. Despite his antagonistic and selfish demeanor, he has referred to Five as a friend and allowed Ridley to leave Hinobi without a mind-wipe. Appearance Mitch is a dark-skinned male of medium height with a triangular body type and generally slim build. His hair is a platinum-blonde colour, and is combed in a Pompadour style for the majority of the show, but following "The Real Glitch Techs" and onwards, it has been combed in a slight side-swept dreadlocks style (simplified as per the show's art style). During more casual appearances, he wears a dark blue leather jacket with a large propped collar over his Hinobi jumpsuit. Throughout his appearances in Season 1 and most of Season 2, his default Glitch Tech Suit is similar to others, being fitted over the white and blue Hinobi jumpsuit. It features augmented protective armor that covers the chest and part of the neck with shoulder pads attached, all of a dark greyish-blue colour with light blue patterns, light blue knee pads, a belt and a thigh holster. His visor is unique with a pink tint as compared to the usual blue-green visors, perhaps as a display of his high status as a veteran Tech. His footwear is also customized, with silver platformed soles. In the episode "The Real Glitch Techs", his Tier 3 Glitch Tech gear debuts, which displays a significant alteration to his suit. It features protective gear such as shoulder pads and knee pads that are hexagon-shaped and pale blue/grey in colour. The new uniform comes with a jacket that overlaps the form-fitting suit. The jacket has a thick-rimmed white and pale blue collar with slate grey collar supports that connect to it.

His belt has two identical pockets on each side of his waist and a grey buckle. Thin light cyan stripes run down the sides of his legs from the belt pockets and end at the grey platform soles of his footwear, which is similar to his Tier 1 suit. His visor gains minor changes to its shape and colours. It maintains its pink tint, though lighter than the previous, and the ear pads are light cyan and slate grey with white "H" symbols on both sides. Powers, Abilities, and Equipment Glove: Like all Glitch Techs, Mitch comes with an augmented glove with weaponry designed to contain and capture glitches. It has the following abilities: Mind Wipe Energy Blasts Weapon and Shield Formation Portals Upgrades Dash Speed Boost Overclock: An alteration on the configuration of the gauntlet which greatly augmented the speed of the functions of the gauntlet, giving superspeed to the user, but after 30s of use the gauntlet overheats and stops working for a short period of time, this can be avoided if the overclock is stopped before the time runs out.(Seen in S2 E2 "Ping") Shurikens "Ridley flame" (mod)(Temporary): Augmented power of the glove glowed in red and orange, had a more powerful Energy blast and could be used to charge the glove and hit the floor to cause a shock wave capable of erase any reducing nearby glitches to their base form.(Seen in S2 E5 "The New Recruit") Triple Shot (Temporary): shot 3 explosive capsules. Powered VR tech: Mitch has a program that when plugged in a VR System can temporary allow the user to damage glitches.(Seen in S2 E9 "I'm Mitch Williams") Geography Bailley is a remote suburban town, surrounded by mountains and pine trees and near a sea or ocean. It is likely located in the northwestern United States in either Oregon or Washington State, given its surrounding landscape and the fact that many gaming and tech companies, such as Microsoft, Nintendo and Valve, are located in that area in real life. Description Hinobi sends out its operators when problems regarding their video game consoles occur. For example, a glitch could have escaped into the real world. These operators, also known as Glitch Techs', will defeat and capture the glitch. After that, witnesses will be mindwiped and destroyed surroundings reverted back to their former state. When not on a mission, Glitch Techs work in Hinobi Stores, fixing ordinary issues that customers have with the company's products.

In The Glitch Modder, she meets Miko, who followed Horn to her lair, and becomes fast friends with her. Ridley shows Miko her modified Hinobi console with rewritten docile Glitches, but as Miko tries recruiting her to safely continue her coding under Hinobi employment, Ridley is unnerved at the idea of losing her glitches. Five tracks them to Ridley's lair, barges in and accidentally releases the "Drago-Kitty" glitch Ridley modded. As their Tech Gauntlets are incompatible with the modded code, Ridley forms a solution after Five saves her, but her main console is destroyed.

Despite Phil's insistence against it, Ridley wins him over with modded upgrades to BITT, and is put through the tutorial; she hacks the system to hyper fast forward and finish quickly. Ridley is taken on a Glitch Tech tour, and runs afoul of Mitch. Wanting to get back at him, Ridley develops Glitch cloning code to stimulate their capture numbers and outperform Mitch, despite Five and Miko's hesitance; placing first on the leaderboard, Ridley's behavior easily informs Mitch what happened. As Five and Miko want to admit how they did it, Ridley has an episode seeing them 'turn' on her, so she releases all captured Glitches and absconds with her gauntlet. While Glitch Techs handle the break out, Ridley's guilt grows until she returns to get Mitch's help, modding his gauntlet to help. Afterward, Phil sadly orders Ridley to be reset by Mitch, who instead lets her go out of respect. Back at her house, Ridley uses a scan to fully replicate a gauntlet. Personality Despite being a decent person and not intending harm to others, Ridley is emotionally volatile, vulnerable to anger as well as being somewhat oversensitive to criticism or disagreements. A side effect of being bullied for being "weird" results in Ridley taking just about any criticism of anything she does, including her moral choices, as 'proof' that whoever is doing it is just another bully, even if they were her friend a moment ago. It's this perception of hers of everyone as a potential enemy that drives many of her more hostile and antagonistic moments. Appearence Ally is a large bird resembling an ostrich that has red and yellow feathers all over her body. Her beak and legs are cerulean. Ally has two toes on each of her feet with visible talons. She has two large red wings and the tips of her wings are burgundy. Ally's face is covered with yellow feathers and the top of her head has three head feathers. Ally has three tail feathers with one tail feather being brighter than the others. Normal Jet Skin Fire Form Personality Ally likes being close to Miko. Powers and Abilities High Speed: She is agile and can run fast. Teleportation: Can turn glitch energy to teleport in a short-range. This ability can't be used if an organic it retains or mounts her, but can teleport no life matter with her like the game controllers Miko uses to tie her in Going, Going, Gauntlet!. Flight: She can fly carrying a person Power Absorption: Can use the power of anything she eats being glitches or technological devices like Miko's gauntlet. Power absorbed: Fireballs (from a glitch). Energy blasts (from Miko's gauntlet). Fire Form: Can enter this form from a berry (might be from her game). This form enhanced her normal abilities and increases her health points. She can throw fireballs in this form. The Gauntlet (or sometimes referred to as Hinobi Gauntlet or Tech Gauntlet) is an all purpose multi tool that fits itself to a users arm and allows them to detect and effect glitches in various ways. It can also track a users personal achievements and experiences as they advance through their Glitch Tech career. All gauntlets are customizable to the user, with a variety of sound, color, and style options. Gauntlets Powers Firing lasers De-Rez emitters: These energy emitters, also called "data streams", can siphon the energy of and content from a glitch construct or entity on contact. Once drained, a target is reduced to Plixels, which can then be drawn and stored in a gauntlets onboard storage drive. Summoning weapons (such as weapons or swords) Defensive emitters: Uses Plixel tech to protect the gauntlet's wearer with a variety of manual and automatic shields and abilities, which are unlocked and customized at various skill levels. Localized shields are limited to specific areas, whereas over-shields may protect a users entire body. A shield bar may optionally display the amount of power a shield can withstand before collapse. Due to the amount of power they use, most shields can only be sustained for a limited time and require a cool-down period to recharge before being used again. Memory Interface Emitters: This emitter beam utilizes T-Ray technology to scan a neural map of a target's mind, so as to alter or restore their natural memory pointers. Known as a "personal system restore", this allows a customers memory to be re-formatted to reach a desired result. In most cases, a processing icon will appear momentarily above the target's head until the final stage of the interface has been completed. The basic process can be quickly performed at the swipe of a finger on the gauntlet's touch display, but intensive processes require higher experience levels as well as classified authorization and technology upgrades. Restoration Emitters: Used to patch and restore any real world physical damage by using Plixel-tech. Before any glitch-related encounter, the gauntlet's auto-save feature maps an area of specified range around the Tech for the purpose of storing information from which to extrapolate repairs later. Glitch Tech vans may also be easily reprinted and restored by their assigned users. Companion Pet: When a tech becomes a Level Two Glitch Tech and gets around 10,000 xp, he/she can adopt a glitch. Glitch Identification: Able to scan the glitch and search its stats from the Hinobi data files. Co-Op: Techs are able to talk to their team and boss Glitch Alert: Techs get a notification on their gauntlet alerting them about a glitch. Transportation: Techs can summon items like hoverboards for a swift escape Extra Powers: Techs can trap people with stuff like a cat bubble or power up glitches with power ups. Pause: Tech's can pause glitches for a limited time. Levitation: If items are too heavy, tech gauntlets can levitate objects. Magnetic Hand: Gauntlets can help you climb metal without falling. Portal: Techs can make portals that can go to many places. Armor: Techs can select many types of armors from many video games. Flashlights: Able to see in the dark. Weapons: They are able to pick a weapon in their gauntlet Example: Swords , Crossbows and other weapons. Characters that have wielded Gauntlets High Five Miko Kubota Phil Altiere Mitch Williams Zahra Rashid Haneesh Jyoshi Bergie Nix Ridley Other Unnamed Hinobi Workers The Glitch Techs are a group of secret operators who work for Hinobi, dedicated to stopping and containing the various monstrous "glitches" that have a tendency to exit the company's games. They work in secret so that the people won't know those glitches exist, and that they come from Hinobi's products and games. ADVERTISEMENT Biography The Glitch Techs are a team of professionals designed to capture and defeat glitches that comes from Hinobi's faulty video game consoles. Team Members Phil Altiere (Boss) Mitch Williams (Team Leader) B.I.T.T. Hector Nieves Miko Kubota Haneesh Jyoshi Zahra Ridley (formerly) Bergy Nix (Tech Support) Emma Deveraux (Pet master) Barbara (Inspector) Simi Ally Unknown Glitch Tech Members Team Appearance Each team member would vary on how their Glitch Tech uniform would look, for example, Miko's Glitch Tech uniform consists of a white suit, a black chest plate with a white H embedded onto it, black sleeves and knee padding, a Glitch Tech glove, clear glasses, and white & pink sneakers. Powers, abilities, and equipment Gauntlet: All Glitch Techs possess an augmented glove with weaponry designed to contain and capture glitches. It has the following abilities: Mind Wipe Energy Blasts Weapon and Shield Formation Portals Additionally, they receive XP, or (experience points) after they defeat and capture a glitch, (or if one Glitch Tech transfers his or her own to another), they then can use it to buy things in the Hinobi store, or for upgrades, like pet glitch's, additional weapons, abilities and skins (that change the appearance and give some of the previous benefits) for themselves or for their pets. If the users of the gloves know of electronics and programing, they can add upgrades by hacking the gloves and downloading the code upgrade from another device, like a game or their own program. However, this is not typically approved of by Hinobi corporate. Weakness: The gloves can be ineffective in certain situations, such as Ridley's modded glitches, which had altered programing code, until Ridley downloaded a link to the modified code to Five and Miko's gauntlets. Another instance of this was in Ping. Due to the glitch's retro code not being in the system, the Ping pixel was incompatible with the present weaponry, making it immune. Biography Nix works at the Joystick Jr. Pizza Arcade in Bailley.[2] He was recruited as a Glitch Tech for his completion of achievements. He is often paired with Cecil Bergoch, as their skillsets compliment each other, but he also works independently.[1] Personality He has a friendly personality and seems to get along with the other Glitch Techs but also shows signs of having a slight ego, as he claims that everybody calls him "The Scorekeeper" in the local Arcade. Appearance Powers, Abilities, and Equipment Gauntlet: Like all Glitch Techs, Nix comes with an augmented glove with weaponry designed to contain and capture glitches. It has the following abilities: Mind Wipe Energy Blasts Weapon and Shield Formation Portals Pixel Craft: A specialization that require a certification to use it in combat. Can manipulate plixels to create and program his own energy constructs, but if the energy construct is set incorrectly, it can create a Glitch instead.[citation needed] Biography A glitch is a physical manifestation of program code, often appearing in the form of an object or entity. Every glitch leak begins in its root form, resembling a small wisp of electricity. Once the root glitch comes in contect with computer data (often from the machine it leaked from), it draws from that information to determine its appearance, and, if an entity, it's personality. A glitch needs glitch energy to maintain its form. If its energy depleted, a glitch reverts back to its root form. When not in their root form, each glitch will differ in appearance. This is due to them originating from all kinds of different video games. They could be a huge, green angry cat (Chomp Kitty), a wrestling garbage monster (Garbile), a big red friendly bird (Ally), an army of zombies, a carnivorous plant, a vampire, medusa creature (Count Nogrog), a small rabbit with a small helmet (Zoom Kazoom), a (Narwhalrus), a karate rooster (Karate Master), and the list goes on. Behavior Glitch intelligence is usually related to their base programming, so they tend to act as if they're still in their game. Dialogue is fixed, and movements appear in patterns. Thus, glitches are predictable, and knowing the video game the monster is from is an advantage when fighting them, as they tend to still fall into the patterns that they followed in said games, like periodically exposing a weak point. This is also is why most Glitches are dangerous, since they run by video-game logic and don't comprehend the dangerous consequences of their actions, and see real-life creatures and objects as things from their game, interacting with the real world, their behavior can sometimes be seen as weird. In "Age of Hinobi" Chomp Kitty mistakes balls in a ball pit and people for "pallets", and tries to eat them. If programmed to eat, they will try to do so in the real world as well. Although they can't really digest what they consider food, some function might get triggered. Types Of Glitches Normal Glitches Normal glitches are, most of the time, humanoid entities which cannot change the real world other than by physically interacting with it. Spawner Glitches Glitches that multiply if they are attacked and missed. Mapper Glitches Mapper glitches can change the appearance of both living and dead objects of the real world. Possessor Glitches Possessor glitches can take over humans and most likely animals as well. The human copies the Glitch's appearance and physical capabilities. Over time, the human mind will slowly merge into the possessor Glitch's code. Multiplayer Glitches Multiplayer glitches can only be captured by destroying their "respawn ship" first. They are the only glitches known to act as a group, coordinated. Copycat Glitches They are glitches who can spawn clones of anything it touches. Illegal Glitches Often times, they are glitches who contain modified coding within them.

She is unbiased, as she does not hesitate to mark infractions made by the inspected party about possible hazards. However, she has a covert side with matters on Hinobi's shadier dealings. Biography "Abuela" Nieves is the wife of Papi Nieves, mother of Emilio Nieves, and the grandmother of High Five. She and her husband have owned Taco Dragon for over twenty years.[1] Personality She is spirited and supports her grandson's interest in video games. Biography Papi Nieves and Abuela Nieves are both shown to be the legal guardians of Five and take care of him due to his father, Emilio Nieves, serving time in prison and his unnamed mother being absent. Prior to working at Hinobi, Five used to help his grandparents prepare and serve food from their food truck. Even though Five was a big help to him and Abuela, he was very supporting of Five's desire to participate in the Hinobi Smash Tournament.

He also has different tattoo patterns mostly visible on his neck and arms. He wears blue jeans, a black t-shirt and a large white apron. Phil has Five and Miko undergo "The Tutorial" in the simulator, which leads to an irate Miko to break and hard reboot the console. Seeking their tutorial file, they instead locate the full catalogue of all Hinobi games, and procrastinate playing the infamously unsold Nobi Gross Out. Meanwhile, Phil, having ignored BITT's earlier warnings, is met by old friend "Bookworm" Barbara, who is to inspect his store because of the tournament Glitch, aiming to reset employees and close up if he fails. While playing, Five and Miko realize "Gross Out" was unsold because it was a glitched game, and release "Garbile" who forces the duo out of the simulator. Not wanting Phil to fire them, they lure Garbile into the trash compactor, mistakenly augmenting the glitch. When Phil and Barbara encounter them, Garbile unleashes his Max-Level fury, but Five and Miko get the idea to summon Garbile's game nemesis, Sanitron, to co-pilot for a win. An impressed Barbara decides not to shut down the store and a thankful Phil still has them complete the tutorial.

Biography Emilio Nieves debuts and is first revealed to be Five's father in Ping; however, he only interacts with Five through video calls as he isn't able to physically be there with him. This is due to him serving time in prison for hacking. In his debut episode, when Five and Miko pay a visit to a retro game store owned by Geri Lawson, it is stated that Emilio had developed a few of the very first video games, those being "Ping", which the episode is named after, "Unicorp" and "Beebuzz". Emilio was also said to be a "White Hat Hacker", meaning he uses hacking skills to identify vulnerabilities in networks, hardware and software while still abiding by the laws applying to hacking. Despite generally being a White Hat Hacker, he is arrested at some point for illegally hacking a fire wall, and is given a jail sentence. Before he was jailed, he used to take care of Five likely by himself as his mother is said to be absent from Five's life. Now, Papi Nieves and Abuela Nieves look after him until Emilio is released.
