Kuu Kuu Harajuku (2009 TV Series)

Kuu Kuu Harajuku is a Japanese-Canadian-Spanish animated children's television series produced by Decode Entertainment and Neptuno Films, created by singer-songwriter Gwen Stefani. It is based on her Harajuku Lovers merchandise brand. The series aired on Knowledge Network and TVOKids in Canada. The show follows a teenage girl based on Gwen Stefani, nicknamed G, and her friends Love, Angel, Music and Baby, as they form the up-and-coming band HJ5. HJ5's clumsy manager Rudie works hard to book performances for the band, but their gigs are always interrupted. The band always manages to overcome challenges using their combined strengths: G's leadership, Love's intelligence, Angel's creativity, Music's bravery, Baby's enthusiasm and Rudie's determination. A villain named General NoFun and his assistant, Commander Bo-Ring, often cause problems for HJ5 as they pursue a world without any entertainment. Other supporting characters include Twisty T, a famous music producer whom Rudie is desperate to impress; Say-Wah, an obsessed HJ5 fan who wants to join the band; Colonel Spyke, a stern soldier who dislikes pop music; and Mauve Madison, a talk show host who reports on HJ5.
