So, get ready to join the band! Here are my Top 11 favourite characters from Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi.
11. Ami's grandmother
There is no way I could make this list without adding Ami's grandmother. She's a funny old lady, especially when she would hit Kaz with her umbrella, and it turns out her hair is actually a wig. She is very strong for her age, considering how worried Ami would've been if she found out Ami was a rockstar.
10. Kaz Harada.
Kaz may come off as a jerk most of the time, but he sure is funny whenever the time is right. He's a greedy manager who just wants money. I say Kaz's best moment was in Were Kaz where he was fed up with being bald, and ends up turning into a werewolf with the Bald-B-Gone.
9. Jang Keng and Tekirai.
These 2 felines are downright hilarious, especially when they interact with Kaz in a sort of a Tom and Jerry fashion, being the very reason Kaz loathes them. They are even more anthropomorphic than they seem, although they still talk like real cats.
8. Atchan.
Atchoo--Oh, I mean Atchan, is one of those wannabe superheroes who is both action-packed and funny at the same time, especially when he tried to steal Yumi's cake slice, causing her to punch him. Something tells me Atchan has a crush on Yumi considering she saved him from a camp bully, being the possible reason they get shipped together. Funny thing about Atchan is, as a kid, he looked a lot like Mac from Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends.
7. Sunekura.
This was one devious snake who was just evil and dimwitted at the same time. Atchan was right to warn everyone about this serpent. The funny thing about Sunekura was that after Atchan, Ami, Yumi and Kaz escaped, Sunekura hit the cave ceiling and died. Silly snake.
6. Vlad, Nicolai and Mitch.
These 3 vampires are no ordinary vampires. They don't suck blood, but talent. Nicolai is a funny idiot, or as Vlad likes to call him, Eediot, similar to how Ren from Ren and Stimpy calls Stimpy an "eediot". Mitch just grunts. These vampires are funny in their own way. The reason they suck talent is because their concerts are terrible instantly.
5. Julie.
This former member of Puffy is without a doubt insane. She always hurts Ami, even if it seems unintentional, and she's always calling her "Andy", "Annie" or "Arthur". This inspired me to, in my headcanons, have Ami call Julie "Juniper", not just for a tease, but as a reference to Lara Jill Miller, who voiced Julie, and the fact she also voiced Juniper Lee from The Life and Times of Juniper Lee. Sadly, due to this show's cancellation, we never got to see what Julie had planned for her revenge.
4. Harmony.
There is no way I could make this list without adding the psycho Numbuh One villager who is annoying in a good way. She's always saying "I'm your Numbuh One fan!" or "I'm your Numbuh One villager!". Her antics in Junior Tapeworm were silly and hilarious, making it unfair for the other Junior Tapeworms. I did like the way she screamed upon Jill interrupting her. She sounded a lot like Pinkie from My Little Pony Friendship is Magic when you think about it.
3. Yumi Yoshimura.
You all saw this coming. Can't make this list without including Yumi. She looks cool, and though she's Gothic, she's caring, especially for her closest friend Ami. Her misadventures are funny, especially the time she thought of herself as Ami in Ami Ami, and the time she tried to get a Pink Palace Cheeseburger in Hungry Yumi. I wouldn't be surprised if Yumi was the inspiration for Luna from The Loud House, whom I always like to say was inspired by The Buzz on Maggie, a show that, strangely, premiered over half a year after Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi and ended a month before Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi.
2. Koi Fish.
Fish Face is not only a fortune teller and acting like a Magic 8 Ball, only a fish who answers truthfully, but he's hilarious too because of that. He's also hilarious because of his voice. I especially loved the way he said "THROWING FISH IS BAD!", and "Not on your life!" and "Cheese and pickle!" What's also good about him is he's invincible, shown when Ami tried to destroy him.
And my Numbuh 1 favourite Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi character is......
You all saw this one coming, and I'll reveal it immediately.
1. Ami Onuki.
That's right. Ami's my favourite from Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi. I can describe 5 good things about her. She's cute, she's an animal lover, she's kind, she's talented, and she only reveals the truth whenever she feels the need to. She's very good at defending the environment, probably even better than Captain Planet has ever been. Ironically, The person who voiced Ami also voiced Wand--oh, I mean Gi from Captain Planet. Speaking of which, Ami's voice is also a reason Sonia is my favourite female character from Codename Kids Next Door. Ami's design is also a reason Lola Mbola is my favourite from Robotboy.
Ami also had some great episodes focused on her, like Collect All Five, Fungus, Granny, Number Please, etc.
If you have any thoughts you want to share on any of my choices, feel free to do so.
