Funky Fu! Pop Star Fighter

'Funky Fu! Pop Star Fighter' is an American animated television series created for the Gingo network by Arlo-Avocha Vernon, a former background designer for two of Gingo's previous shows: Gabriel Garza and Hatty. Vernon is also known for directing the 2001 animated film Going Francisco.

A combination between dark Southeast Asian atmosphere and quirky humor, the show centers on the adventures of Tad Sumoray (Kath Soucie), a 13-year old Chinese-American rapper and the last remaining member of a tree of kung fu fighters, the spirits of whom claim stuffed pandas for their new bodies. With the aid of both his panda sidekicks and his fans, Tad must save mankind from the sirens of the underworld, while spreading messages of love, hope, and integrity. The series first aired in the United States on March 1, 1997, and ended its run on July 31, 2004. The show has also appeared internationally on Teletoon in Canada, SBS and Cartoon Network in South Korea and Fox Kids/Jetix in Latin America.

Funky Fu! has achieved a strong cult status among critics and audiences for its humor, visual style, and themes, and is notable for helping action-oriented Gingo series to rise into popularity at the turn of the new millennium.
