Mason "Dipper" Pines[1] is a fictional character and one of the two lead characters in the Disney Channel animated series Gravity Falls. The character is voiced by Jason Ritter, and is loosely based on the childhood of series creator Alex Hirsch.[2] Dipper appears in all the episodes of Gravity Falls alongside Mabel Pines, his twin sister. Beside his presence in the main series, he appears in the Gravity Falls mini-series titled "Dipper's Guide to the Unexplained" and the shorts "Fixin' it with Soos" and "Mabel's Guide to Life".
The characters of Dipper and his sister Mabel are inspired by the childhood series creator Alex Hirsch and his own twin sister, Ariel Hirsch.[3] As a character, Dipper has been critically well received.[4] He appears in various Gravity Falls merchandise, such as on clothing and in video games.[5]
The shows creator Alex Hirsch has stated, occasionally while Dipper is smart, he is still a kid. In a Reddit AMA he did in 2013, Hirsch stated that, "Dipper's smart but he's not a 'WALKING CALCULATOR'. There's a lot of kid shows featuring a character who is 'the brains.' Dipper is better academically than Mabel, but he's also able to laugh at himself. He's a real kid. He has insecurities. He has things that he loves. I try not to pigeonhole these characters into 'ONE TYPE'. They lose their humanity if you do that. (Secret: Dipper's secretly jealous that Mabel's better socially than he is)."[6]
Coming from Piedmont, California, Dipper and his twin sister Mabel are forced to spend their summer with their great uncle Stan in the fictional town of Gravity Falls, Oregon.[7][8] He is portrayed as smart, logical, yet sometimes awkward. He has an interest in mysteries and shows expertise in various areas of knowledge like history, cryptography, and puzzle-solving.
He first arrives in Gravity Falls bored and upset,[9] but after he accidentally comes across a mysterious red journal in the forest around Gravity Falls, he begins to adjust to life in town and starts going on adventures with his sister to unravel the supernatural secrets of the town as told by the entries in the journal.
Starting with "The Inconveniencing", Dipper is shown to have a crush on 15-year-old Mystery Shack cashier Wendy Corduroy. However, his attempts to win her over are usually sidetracked by accidents or supernatural phenomena. In the episode "Into the Bunker", Wendy confirms her suspicions of Dipper's crush, and though she explains that she is too old for Dipper, they remain close friends.
Throughout the series, Dipper wears a trademark white and blue cap with a symbol of a blue pine tree logo in the front of the hat, which he takes from the Shack's gift shop with his great-uncle ("Grunkle") Stan's permission. He also wears a navy blue vest, reddish orange T-shirt, gray shorts, black sneakers, and a wristwatch. "Double Dipper" reveals that his nickname comes from a birth mark on his forehead in the form of the Big Dipper, which he hides with his bangs.[10]
