The '''Runaway Five''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|トンズラブラーザズ|Tonzura Burāzazu}}''' ''Runaway Brothers'') is a blues band appearing in [[EarthBound]]. The names of the five band members are '''Lucky''', '''Nice''', '''Gorgeous''', '''Groovy''' and '''Okay''', with Lucky and Nice being the frontmen. They appear throughout the game returning favors to [[Ness]] and his friends. The band is constantly finding themselves in debt, and Ness, coincidentally, always has something to pay the theater owner back. | {{Game icons|M2=y|SSB=y}} | ||

*Although their band name is the Runaway ''Five'', when they perform they have a sixth member. The sixth member, | *Although their band name is the Runaway ''Five'', when they perform they have a sixth member. The sixth member, Keyboar, only appears during performances, and not during other parts of the game, suggesting he may not actually be part of the band. This was not a problem in the Mother 2 version, due to the band being called the Tonzura Brothers, not mentioning any numbers. | ||
*The Runaway Five's names are inconsistant in official sources, which is especially the case for the two frontmen: the official Japanese guide refers to the chubby singer in red as Nice and the tall singer in green Lucky, a Famitsu interview with Shigesato Itoi instead suggests the red singer is Gorgeous, and the official figures released in 2010 refers to the one in red as Lucky and the one in green as Nice. The rest of the band members never had their names clarified. | |||
*The idea of the Runaway Five came from the Blues Brothers. In fact, in Mother 2, their suits were colored black. During localization the colors were changed to prevent law suits regarding the Blues Brothers.<ref>[http://earthboundcentral.com/m2eb/twoson-2/ EarthBound Central: "MOTHER 2 vs. EarthBound: Twoson 2"]</ref> | *The idea of the Runaway Five came from the Blues Brothers.
