Overview
The Samurai Pizza Cats are a trio of crime-fighting super-heroes in the town of Little Tokyo, Japan. Wearing Samurai costumes, they burst through the air to the rescue from a humongous cannon connected to their headquarters - A fast food restaurant. Little Tokyo is populated by all kinds of animals. The official governor of the town is the Emperor, but since he became insane, a council takes care of the well-being of the village. One of the members of this council is called Seymour "Big" Cheese, who secretly wishes to take over control of the village.

Characters


Speedy Cerviche
Speedy is the leader of the Samurai Pizza Cats. As his name implies, Speedy is nimble and fast on his toes, a trait which comes in handy both when delivering pizzas and when fighting crime. He wields the magical Ginzu sword, whose power is unleashed in almost every episode as Speedy’s special attack, the Cat’s Eye Slash. Speedy is very self-confident and loves to pose for the camera after each victory. He is sarcastic, often jokes, and gets easily irritated at times.


Guido Anchovy
Guido is the resident cool dude of the group. Tall, dark-furred, handsome and a smooth talker, he is often seen chasing after girls and he's is very committed to his duties. Him and Speedy don't always get along but in the end Guido and Speedy are always friends. Guido’s weapon of choice is the Samurai Sunspot Umbrella (which he occasionally calls the Parasol of Doom), which can fire rings, fire a heat beam, be spun to hypnotise enemies, and be used as a club (when closed) or a shield (when open). Its handle conceals Guido’s sword.


Polly Esther
Polly is the only girl on the team. Although Speedy is the leader, Polly does her fair share of bossing her teammates around. She has a fiery temper and a dynamic, independent personality. Polly battles evil with the power of love: she plays a flute when going into battle, her projectile weapons are heart-shaped, and she can charm foes to make them move in the range of her razor-sharp claws. Polly removes her armour on two occasions, during which she is shown with short red hair and a hairband on which her ears sit.


Francine
Francine is the feline owner of the Pizza Cat Restaurant. She does not actively participate in missions, but still plays a vital role. Wherever the Samurai Pizza Cats are needed, either to deliver a pizza or to battle evil, she operates the launching cannon (in a parody of the live-action Japanese film Cyber Ninja) which blasts the heroes in the air. She also handles communications and finances, and is known in the English language version for speaking in rhyme.
