The Happy hat has a {{Defence}} bonus of +15 and restores 1 MP for every 4 steps. It can be worn by [[Borya]], [[Kiryl]], {{Maya}}, and {{Meena}}. In the original NES version, one can be received as a reward for turning in 4 [[mini medal]]s to the [[Medal King]], while in all remake versions of the game, it is a reward for turning in 43 medals. It also has a {{fraction|1|128}} chance of being dropped by [[Liquid metal slime]]s or randomly stolen by Torneko in your party. It's best to have the Sands of Time item and enter a battle with Liquid metal slime with another monster who won't run away. Also have everybody defend except for Torneko who will randomly steal a Liquid metal helm. If the Liquid metal slime runs away or Torneko accidentally kills one, use the Sands of Time to bring the Liquid metal slime back to the battle. The hat can be sold for a measly 11 [[gold]] coins, but it is not recommended to do so.
