Tobe

Background

Tobe is the main antagonist of the Pucca series (though in some episodes, he appears only as a background character). He is Garu's particular enemy and strives to defeat him at all costs, but is rarely capable of doing so, much less being able to handle Pucca. For some reason, Tobe is always trying to gain vengeance against Garu ("Vengeance!" is his catch-phrase), though the series never mentions what Garu ever had done to him. Tobe is fifteen years old.

This dropdown contains the synopsis of Tobe’s story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!

In the series, Tobe often makes statements that range from melodramatic to just plain ridiculous, e.g., "The fly is walking right into my web-like... mousetrap!" Though it seems that Tobe and Garu might come to respect each other as friends after being stuck together in "Stuck on Goo," Tobe immediately reverts to evil. The fact that Tobe frequently mentions Garu's ancestors may be a clue to the cause of their rivalry; however, when Garu is erased in "Tame that Toon," Tobe loses all memory of him and says to himself that he wants vengeance on someone — he randomly chooses Dada, who is sweeping the front of the Goh-Rong and is the first person to come in sight. This may hint that Garu was just an innocent bystander whom Tobe just happened to pick to take vengeance on. Tobe has an X-shaped scar between his eyes and usually wears a ninja mask; nevertheless, Tobe has been seen without his mask a number of times before. Tobe is generally accompanied by his ninja minions who, more often than not, eliminate themselves by misinterpreting Tobe's commands or just being utterly stupid, much to Tobe's annoyance. He apparently retains their services because they work cheap, as Tobe himself attested to Garu when they were stuck together. Tobe's minions are almost never unmasked, even if they go to sleep. In Pucca Love Recipe, he's still the antagonist and rival to Garu. However, his image has somewhat softened in some episodes. He's sometimes more of a lackey to Fyah than the main villain. In one episode he and his ninja gang were shown to have a soft spot for a florist's mascot known as "Flower Fairy" and even came to her defense when she was being harassed by the Dong King Restaurant Panda (i.e., Fyah in a mascot costume) — this is also one of the few times Tobe and his ninjas hadn't committed the crime they were accused of, which makes Tobe seriously angry.
