The '''Happy hat''', also known as the '''joy hat''' and '''Hat of Happiness''', is a recurring hat in the {{DQSeries}}. This wondrous pink wizard hat recovers the wearer's {{MP}} while walking on the field. It appears to have a magical flower growing from it.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ4}}===
The happy hat has a {{Defence}} bonus of +15. It can be worn by [[Borya]], [[Kiryl]], {{Maya}}, and {{Meena}}.  It is found occasionally after defeating or stealing from a [[Liquid Metal Slime]]. It can be sold for 11 [[Gold]] Coins.

==={{DQ5}}===
The happy hat has a Defence bonus of +35. It can be equipped by {{Bianca}}, {{Nera}}, the [[Hero's Daughter (Dragon Quest V)|Hero's daughter]], [[Sancho]], and several monster companions. The hat is found in [[Gotha]] Castle behind a door that is locked with the [[Ultimate key]]. It can be sold for 6,750 Gold Coins but it is not recommended to do so since there is only one in the entire game.

==={{DQ6}}===
The happy hat has a Defence bonus of +35, but reduces style by 17. It is a prize for winning level 8 of the Best Dressed contest at [[Château de Sass]]. It can also be dropped by [[Liquid metal slime]]s.

==={{DQ7}}===
The happy hat has a Defence bonus of +37, but reduces style by 17. It recovers 1 MP for every 4 steps, which is slightly inferior to the [[Goddess ring]] (which recovers 1 MP for every 2 steps). It can be worn by the {{Hero 7}}, {{Maribel}}, [[Ruff]], and [[Sir Mervyn]]. It is not sold in any shops, but it can be won from the Lucky Panel at [[Buccanham]]'s [[Casino]]. It can also be dropped by [[platinum king jewel]]s. They can be sold for 10,000 Gold Coins, but it is not recommended to do so.

==={{DQ8}}===
The happy hat has a Defence bonus of +31. It can only be worn by {{Jessica}} and [[Angelo]].  It can be obtained from Dodgy Dave in [[Pickham]] in exchange for the [[Sandstorm spear]] or made in [[alchemy]] with the [[Feathered cap]] and [[Elevating shoes]].  Shops will take it for 10,000 gold coins. In the {{3DS}} remake, another can be found in the new hidden post-game dungeon.

==={{DQ9}}===
In this game, the happy hat gained a counterpart in the form of the [[unhappy hat]].
