Background

Pucca is a media franchise from the South Korean company VOOZ Character System. The main and title character, Pucca, is the niece of three Korean noodle house owners. The noodle house, known as the "Goh-Rong", is located in Sooga Village, a small village in the mountains. Pucca is also in love with the ninja Garu (가루 [kaɾu]), who is mostly shy to share his feelings back to her. Pucca always seems to beat him in combat and unintentional competition simply by sheer will.

Originally, Pucca was an "animated online e-card service" made in 2000 by the company VOOZ. The popularity of the e-card increased so rapidly in both Korea and the rest of Asia that it was licensed by Jetix Europe in 2004, who also acquired television rights for the service. VOOZ went on to continue working with Jetix Europe, making the original two and a half minute long animated shorts, which were then aired on both the Jetix website and as in-between full cartoon show shorts on the Jetix television channel. Pucca shorts were also often featured on the channel for MTV. Jetix Europe's director of international licensing, Richard Woolf, stated that "the possibilities with Pucca were immediately apparent, especially because you were left wanting more after watching the original shorts".

More episodes were ordered by Jetix Europe after the success of the initial shorts, with Studio B Productions in charge of making them. The new episodes became more fleshed out to depict Pucca as being a real television series, with more extensive plot being involved and some of the non-speaking characters gaining voices, along with the length of the episodes being extended to seven minutes in total. The new episodes were shown on many of Jetix's worldwide channels.

After the success of the show in television, Jetix began branching out into accessories and toys in order to bring in further revenue from the, now, franchise. These new products included "apparel, accessories, housewares, giftware, and stationery" focused largely on attracting younger teenagers. Since then, the age demographic has expanded to include younger children through the creation of various toy lines and older teenagers through the publishing of video games set in the Pucca universe.

Flash Animation/Shorts

In the initial period, Pucca was an online animated series made with Macromedia Flash by original company VOOZ Co., Ltd.. Many of its greeting cards and Flash episodes center around Pucca's comical attempts to steal a kiss from Garu and the competition at times between the two characters. There is little to no dialogue in these Flash cartoons so that fans all over the world can enjoy them.

2006 Series

Pucca (짜장소녀 뿌까, Jjajang Sonyeo Ppukka) is a Canadian/South Korean animated television series based on a series of shorts created by the South Korean company VOOZ Character System. The series revolves around Pucca, a young girl who is in love and obsessed with a ninja named Garu. It also has aired on Champ TV and MBC in Korea. Internationally, the series has aired on Toon Disney's Jetix block in the United States, Europe, and other locales on the Jetix channel.

Pucca premiered in 2006, with a set of 26 episodes (78 segments). The second season of the show, consisting of 13 episodes (37 segments), began airing in 2008 after it was ordered to be created by Jetix Europe.

In total, not including the previous online aired episodes of the show, this brought the number of created segments to 193.

Reboot Series

In October 2018, A third season was announced by Planeta Junior, a company within Planeta Group. The third season aired in South Korea on December 10th 2018 on MBC, and December 19th 2018 on Tooniverse. It consists of 26 episodes (78 segments). The third season of Pucca, titled "Pucca: Love Recipe" in English, released on Netflix on December 31st, 2019. Despite being the 3rd season, the series had a continuity reboot.

Canon

As Pucca is a cartoon gag series without any true serilization, essentally anything that's officially published by Vooz is canon, the video game Pucca Power Up, gives us some minor backstory for Garu, the shorts have a backstory for how Pucca came to Sooga Village, and the 2006 series follows amongst these, the Reboot is in its own continuity as it's a reboot, with modern shorts containing reboot characters being primarily for the reboot.

Power of the Verse

Despite how the verse may look, the god tiers are very powerful. Many are capable of lifting buildings, destroying walls, tanking lightning strikes, and causing storms, while the god tiers are at least High Mass Star level, with a Universe level when they are amplified. They also have hax like Space-Time Manipulation, BFR, Empathic Manipulation, Purification, Reality Warping, etcetera.
