Unlike the regular type, these Char-Chars can only be destroyed with a [[barrel]]. Char-Chars also have [[Rentamaguma|larger relatives]], which cannot be defeated.

'''Char-chars''' are enemies appearing in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. They are spherical fireballs with a menacing smile. These enemies only appear in the [[Volcano]] world of the game, where they appear as a recurring enemy. Char-chars can either pop out of the [[lava]] in the level or can be seen simply bouncing on a platform. The normal Char-chars can easily be defeated with a [[barrel]]. If [[Donkey Kong]] blows air on them, they will instantly disintegrate as well.
