Ami Onuki

Ami Onuki is one of the titular main protagonists from the Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi series.
== Charactah Account ==
Ami is a teenage girl who is allegedly the older of the duo, and she is depicted as a peppy, optimistic, and cute girl.
Ami is known for her girly-girl and goody-two-shoes personality. As the optimist, Ami always looks on the bright side of things and finds a solution to every situation she is involved in. She loves rainbows, bunnies (cute animals), sparkles and anything else typically pretty, which is the opposite of Yumi, who likes things more targeted to a tomboyish and unisex demographic.
Ami also cares a lot about how other people think, and tries not to be selfish. This makes Ami willing to help everyone and find solutions for anyone she cares. On the other side, however, she also hides her real mind and opinions in order to never disappoint others.

== Trivia ==
* Ami's real-life counterpart does not have hot pink hair, instead she has dyed strawberry-blonde hair and does not wear pigtailed buns and a daisy hairclip.
* Rodney Greenblatt’s (the character designer for the PlayStation game PaRappa the Rapper) design for Ami Onuki looks unlike her Cartoon Network counterpart. The design looks exactly like her real-life counterpart.
* Ami's character design is somewhat similar to Agent Xero from the failed animated pilot The Modifyers, which was co-created by Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi character designer Lynne Naylor.
* Ami's voice actress Janice Kawaye also voiced Jenny Wakeman from the Nickelodeon cartoon My Life as a Teenage Robot.
* Like her friend Yumi, Ami has her own motorized scooter in some episodes. According to puffycrew.blogspot.com, a former developers' blog, their motorized scooters were influenced by real-life Puffy AmiYumi's music video for Wild Girls on Circuit that includes retro-styled Yamaha Vino scooters.
* While Ami and Yumi's accurate age is never revealed in episodes, some episodes like "Ninjcompoop" and "Team Teen" imply that the duo are teenagers as animated characters. Their ability of driving their own scooters and tour bus could be a clue to guess they are about 16 years old or older.
* Fans of the show usually consider Ami as older counterpart of the animated duo than Yumi. As real-life counterparts, Yumi Yoshimura (born in Jan 30th, 1975) is about two years younger than Ami Onuki (born in Sep 18th, 1973).
* Ami also appears in the web series Power Friends.
* According to Yumi Yoshimura, Ami's characterization in the show is accurate to Ami's personality in real life.
