Squidward Tentacles is a fictional character voiced by actor Rodger Bumpass in the American animated television series ''SpongeBob SquarePants''. Squidward was created and designed by marine biologist and animator Stephen Hillenburg. He first appeared on television in the series' pilot episode "Help Wanted" on May 1, 1999. Although his name has the word "Squid" in it and he has six arms (Hillenburg designed Squidward with six arms, believing that "it was really just simpler for animation to draw him with six legs instead of eight".), Squidward is an anthropomorphic octopus. He lives in a moai between SpongeBob SquarePants' and Patrick Star's houses. The character is portrayed as ill-tempered, pretentious, and cynical who strongly despises his neighbors for their constant boisterous, noisy behavior. However, the pair are unaware of Squidward's antipathy towards them and see him as a friend. Squidward works as a cashier at the Krusty Krab restaurant. The character's critical reception from professionals and fans has been positive. Squidward has appeared in many ''SpongeBob SquarePants'' publications, toys, and other merchandise. He appears in the 2004 full-length feature film ''The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie'' and in its sequel which was released on February 6, 2015. ==Role in ''SpongeBob SquarePants''== Squidward is depicted as a bitter, very unfortunate, desperate, curt, arrogant, turquoise octopus. He lives in the underwater city of Bikini Bottom in a moai situated between SpongeBob SquarePants' pineapple house and Patrick Star's rock. Squidward detests his neighbors for their perpetual laughter and boisterous behavior, though SpongeBob and Patrick are oblivious to Squidward's animosity towards them and regard him as a friend. Squidward lives in a constant state of self-pity and misery; he is unhappy with his humdrum lifestyle and yearns for celebrity status, wealth, hair, and a glamorous and distinguished career as a musician or painter with a passion for art and playing the clarinet. However, he is left to endure the lowly status as a fast-food cashier at the Krusty Krab restaurant. Squidward resents his job and is irritated by his greedy employer Mr. Krabs and by having SpongeBob as a colleague. Squidward longs for peace but his wishes remain unsatisfied.〔 He believes he is talented and deserves a higher social status. The populace of Bikini Bottom do not consider him talented, and frequently boo him and walk out on his performances. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Squidward Tentacles」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
