Synopsis

Abyo loses his face (literally) when he shows off in front of the village, but ends up humiliating himself. Ching and Pucca track down Abyo's face, but find it has fallen in Tobe's hands. Tobe uses Abyo's face to lure Garu to him, under the guise of Abyo, where he plans to kill Garu. This plan is thwarted by Pucca, and Abyo receives his face back, though it is upside down.

Production notes

Pucca loves Garu, and she wants to kiss him every day. Young Garu has a different idea: he's following the stoic path of the Ninja, and he wants to be left in peace. Pucca's uncles want to perfect their restaurant's noodle recipe, and Abyo just wants to rip his shirt off and be like Bruce Lee.

Funny love and kung-fu kicks abound in this comedy starring this well-loved Asian licensing starlet.
