Character Information
|
Sarah G. Lato is a supporting character in The Amazing World of Gumball. She was first introduced in "The Banana." As of "The Void," she seems to be a member of the cheerleading squad.
Appearance
Sarah is an anthropomorphic ice cream cone. The ice cream portion of her body is yellow, and the cone is orange in coloration, with brown stripes. She has thin legs and arms the same color as her head.
Personality
In her initial appearances, she seemed to be soft-spoken, and rarely made speaking appearances. In "The Fan," however, she is revealed to be highly delusional, and somewhat eccentric. She is somewhat of a stalker, as revealed in "The Fan." She seems to see things played out as a sort of sitcom, with herself as a character, even carrying around a tape recorder that plays a laugh track, and accompanying music. Sarah is also extremely obsessed with Gumball and Darwin, whom she views as her only friends, and appears to also fantasize about marrying one of them. Gumball and Darwin were the first people who spoke to her at Elmore Junior High.
