Now if you haven't see the Sushi Pack cartoon it is the cleverest thing.... There are 5 main characters, based on 5 different types of sushi and they use their wits and their emotions to save the world and educate young children. The Sushi Pack team lives in a Japanese restaurant with humans. Despite the superhero element of the story, violence is used only as a last resort.
The main characters include:
Ikura: Named after salmon egg sushi. He is very headstrong and charges in when it comes to helping his friends. He has the power to shoot sticky fish eggs. He's also terrified of bears!
Kani: An easily angered girl named after crab sushi. Her pigtails are tough crab claws, which she uses to give her foes a powerful pinch!
Maguro Maki: The calm, peaceful member of the group named after tuna sushi. She's in touch with her inner tuna, and enjoys meditation and Feng Shui. She can float, and has almost psychic powers.
Tako: The unofficial leader. Named after octopus sushi, he certainly looks the part! He has six long tentacle arms, and an eye patch. He would rather use his powers of shooting multi-colored ink to be a world renowned painter than to fight evil, and gets insulted when his paintings are called bad (which they are.)
Wasabi: The smallest, cutest, and speechless character of the Sushi Pack. A spicy ball of hot mustard, he can only communicate with squeally noises, and has the power to fly and shoot fireballs at foes. He is very sensitive, and gets upset easily.
Meet the characters here.Then, there is also a band of "villans" who the Sushi Pack "battles" against, the Legion of the Low Tide.
Titanium Chef: Where there is bad sushi, there's a bad sushi chef. He's one mean catfish who not only orders the Legion of Low Tide to fight dirty and scheme evil plots, he also manages the sushi bar they live in.
Toro: A very fat tuna who isn't very smart. He's strong but gullible and usually just follows along.
Unagi: This mutated electric eel packs a ton of voltage. He's slimy savage with an eye for detail.
Mochi Mochiato: A frozen ball of rice coated ice cream who freezes her enemies in their tracks. She is candy coated, but cold as ice. She one time befriended Maguro and later Kani.
Fugu: A blowfish who can puff himself up to many times his original size. He's dead set on doing no good and has a eye with video functions.
Uni: An unstoppable sea urchin with a talent for scheming evil plots. He is one of the Sushi Packs biggest threats because he is seemingly unstoppable. He has the ability to morph.

Apparently, this show is doing very well in CBS's Saturday morning Kewlopolis line-up.

Well I hope the first people they will educate is the Japanese Fishing Industry which along with the Chinese Fishers are fishing the oceans of this planet empty. Their craving for all things in the oceans is like a void. Never satisfied, never considerate of the source or the people in whose countries they are taking the fish from right under their noses.
It is a fact that the African continent is almost depleted and everyone is looking on, including those corrupt govts who are getting their pockets lined.
Ahh Sushi and Sashimi, but they in themselves are born of violence...the kitchen knife.
Be careful of sushis, whilst living in Japan, there was a story of a man whose body was infested with millions of microscopic worms found only in some fishes used for Sushi. They ate him from the inside and this was only discovered after the autopsy.
In Japan you can buy a type of Sushi called Califonia Sushi, they roll the sushis with fried eggs, cucumbers, lettuce and/or tunfish or cooked shrimps or artificial shrimps.
Hope I didn't dampen your post too much? But there is always 2 sides to everything, theirs and mine...LOL.
That is quite an interesting concept for a cartoon - I'll have to check it out. Speaking of checking out... lets do MF Sushi or Buckhead for lunch soon.
