If you don't know, the Pizza Cats have not been on air in most areas almost for years. Lately, there has been a lot of rumors that the Family Channel (partially owned by Saban which owns the SPC) will show the Pizza Cats again. I myself am anxiously waiting for the new season to begin to see if this is true, although even more news says that they won't. Some people are already sure of this, as there has been some talk on the mailing list of ways that we should get the Cats back. I totally understand this. Personally, I have total faith that some day our letters and petitions will bring back our beloved Cats. Others have said it would be like putting a old TV show back on that no one remembers. However, Saban will put on a show if they think it has a large enough audience. If the little petition on my page isn't your cup o' tea, there is another petition:
Samurai Savings Time
1.)Imagination
You gotta admit, when it comes to being an idealist, Big Cheese beats Jerry Atrick. He's the one who comes up with the cooky plans to take over Little Tokyo.
2.)Sensibility/Reason
In this case, Jerry Atrick is more anchored to reality than his boss. As seen in the series, Jerry Atrick takes an advisor role for Big Cheese, reminding him how over budget he is, telling him when he's going to blow, etc.
3.)Fighting Ability
I'd like to say that Jerry Atrick would kick Big Cheese's @$$, but it's not very likely. Despite the martial arts skills Jerry posseses(as shown in "Big Cheese Shows His Filmy Substance"), and great marksmanship(Unidentified Flying Oddballs), the match would end in a stalemate. Everyone knows that when Big Cheese is stressed out he explodes, so even though Jerry would get in a few chops it wouldn't matter because both of them would be knocked out eventually.
4.)Fashion/Class Status
Uh oh. Big Cheese knows the contemporary styles of both men and women. Jerry's seldom changes his outfit(like dressing up as a octopus-alien or an Ultra-Man look-a-like). However, the distinction between these fiends classes are difficult. Cheesey's also High Chancelor(a diabolic one at that) to Emperor Fred while Jerry Atrick is the master to the ninja crows. Cheese has connections with politics while Jerry has connections to robotic company's and whatnot. Though it seems like a toss up, I'd have to give this to the Big Cheese because his status makes him a more notable character to the public.
Conclusion
It would seem that Big Cheese is a better villan than Jerry Atrick in many aspects. However, I'd like to say that I like Jerry way more.
Some webpages and people that I've talked to have said that the Pizza Cats are ripoffs of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles(no offense to the turtles at all)! Obviously they have not seen one episode! You may ask yourself what proof and evidence do these people have to make such slanderous remarks? Well I'll number them and confront them.
1.) The Samurai Pizza Cats names are similar to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
First of all, SPC and TMNT aren't really that related. The only similarites are Samurai to Ninja, and Cats to Turtles. First of all, TMNT get there names because of their origin. They became mutant turtles by being exposed to mutagene goo. The SPC were drawn as cats, and always were cats. They live in a world where everything are animals(androids some say). Secondly, Samurais and Ninjas are completely differant. Check out their disciplines. By the way, The Samurai Pizza Cats are not teenagers.
2.) The theme song and first episode make a crack about the turtles.
When anime is translated to english, sometimes a character's dialect has to be changed so the words can fill his/her's mouth. This sometimes changes the true meaning of the lines. If you've noticed, there are many episodes of the Pizza Cats when a number of characters say weird or funny stuff(clip sentances for instance) that's a little out of context. In "Bid Cheese's I.Q. Corral", Guru Lou asks Guido to strap on one of "his" inventions and repeat the alphatbet backwards. You can bet the japanese version says something else(though I think this was funnier). The line "have more fur than a turtle ever had" was probably another example of this, as was the joke about the "ancient Ninja Turtle" in "Stop Dragon my cat around". Plus, all of these things are funny anyway. In conclusion, the SPC are obviously not like the TMNT at all.
