I just find Ami cute, sweet and lovable. I just can't help it!

That wasant my favorite show but I do catch myself watching it on YTV from time to time just to see that adorible little girl Ami.

But after I watched it, I enjoyed it for other reasons and really started to enjoy watching those cute two anime girl rockers going on weird ass adventures. Ami was cute no doubt, but I totally crushed on Yumi, I just wish she was developed more then just "rocker girl" image.

I would have liked to see her emotional side as pansy as that must sound, I loved when they would randomly curse or scream in Japanese.

It got canned? I didn't even know that, but come to think of it, I haven't seen it on in a while. That show kind of confused me because it starred two characters who are supposed to represent real people but looked nothing like them, had entirely different voices in another language, and probably had different personalities too. But I like Puffy's music so it was always nice to hear it on HHPAY.

My guilty pleasures include:

• carbo-loading (SWEETS YAY)
• trash TV
• dorky harem anime shows
• Something Awful
• Japanese songs, but a bit different from what has been mentioned -- I'm talkin' songs with high-pitched singing about kittens and ice cream and cupcakes and kissing and all sorts of horribly cute things. It's not all like that, but that's a fair chunk of my Japanese music. I don't listen to as much Japanese music as I used to though.
• stupid gossip magazines about celebrities I don't care about
• those medical shows about freaky diseases

I don't think the show was meant to represent them but merely to be an extension of them. I think the cartoon versions of Ami and Yumi were meant to be comical exaggerations of who the real Ami and Yumi actually are, who they see themselves as. Their own view of themselves.

Cartoons allow you to do the impossible and have the freedom to do whatever you want, the way I took it was the girls wanted to make themselves look how they feel on the outside into a cartoon. A sort of comical representation of who they are personality wise, or perhaps how they see themselves.

The reason they sounded different was probably because the real Ami Yumi would be too busy doing their REAL singing career, to take the time to learn English and constantly come to Cartoon Network and do recordings for the show. It's a hard juggle that most actors rarely ever attempt.

Consider the Jackie Chan Adventures show where Jackie Chan is the voice and star of the show, but his cartoon counterpart is probably very different then who he actually is (not to mention the fact it's a magic loaded show). Again, I assume it's a means of comical exaggeration of Chan's personality.

HA! You call those bad?! I'm pretty sure this trumps them all. Prepare to get cavities!

Anyhoo, I never really get to see Jerry Springer but whenever one of those types of shows comes on it's like "For her entire life she has kept a horrible secret from her family. More after the commercial break!" and I'm always like "WHAT WHAT IS THE SECRET I MUST KNOW"

AHH! I LOVE it! The way she sings makes her sound inhuman, though. *suki suki suki, suki suki suki XD*
