List of Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi characters
This is a list of characters from the American-Japanese animated television series, Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi, which was created by Sam Register, and which originally aired on Cartoon Network from November 12, 2004, to June 27, 2006. Main characters. Ami Onuki. Ami Onuki, the older one of the duo is depicted in the show as a 16-year old peppy, optimistic, and cute girl with rose hair and eyes. She favors bubblegum pop and wears a 1960s go-go dress, also sporting a flower in her hair and white knee-high go -go boots. As the optimist, Ami always looks on the bright side of things and finds a solution to every situation (being two years older and more mature). Ami can drive the tour bus, talk to bees, make a huge mess and clean in the form of a tornado, and play her drums with her bare feet, as seen in both "Ami Goes Bad" and "Mean Machine". Ami can crush a handheld gaming device with her hand as seen in "The Legend of Mei Pie". She is also a ninja like Yumi in "Ninjcompoop", though not as skillful or as  Yumi (Which leads to her ultimate demise later). Ami can also throw things far away as seen in "Gridiron Maidens", due to always pounding on the drums. Yumi Yoshimura. Yumi Yoshimura, the younger of the duo, is depicted in the show as a 14-year old cynical, sarcastic punk rocker with lavender hair and blue eyes. She dresses in a heavy metal/grunge/goth style with studded necklaces and bracelets, a light purple T-shirt with a skull that has the same facial expressions as she does and seems to have a mind of its own, a black miniskirt, purple  bike shorts, and black army boots. Being younger, Yumi is also more impetuous than Ami and rushes headlong into a decision before thinking. However, Yumi has a mature side as well, and sometimes reasons with Ami's childish obsessions, although she herself is two years younger. Yumi loves things like ninjas, monster trucks, car crushers and anything else rough and tough. In the episode "Opera Yumi", it is shown that she was an opera singer since birth, but rebelled to pursue her interest in rock music. She also commonly disrespects Kaz. In some episodes she can be seen biting her  nails intentionally or not. Yumi can also drive the tour bus, understand animals, eat a lot of food if she's very bored and make a huge mess like Kaz and Ami. Yumi is also a fighter and at times, a ninja due to her training in "Ninjcompoop". Yumi would never make an appearance in a Cartoon Network show after the show's cancellation until 2018, when she later appeared as a cameo in the "OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes" episode "Crossover Nexus", alongside Robot Jones (from "Whatever Happened to... Robot Jones?"), Chowder and Schnitzel (from "Chowder"), Festro (from  Secret Mountain Fort Awesome), Moxy (from "The Moxy Show"), Ilana (from "Sym-Bionic Titan"), High-Five Ghost (from "Regular Show"), and Weasel (from "I Am Weasel"). Kazuo "Kaz" Harada. Kaz Harada is the duo's well-intentioned yet money-grubbing manager, whose successes are usually balanced out by his foolish decisions. His appearance and name are based on Puffy AmiYumi's real-life manager, Kaz Harada. Veteran character actor Keone Young provides his voice. He is also a huge fan of sumo wrestling, as seen in the episode "Sumo Kaz".
