Though her age is never stated, Pudding is said to be the youngest of the Mew Mews. She is full of energy and loves having fun, to the point Mint considers her very immature and the other Mew Mews agree that her monkey DNA is a perfect match for her personality.[11] Despite her childlike nature, Pudding is raising four younger siblings and managing the family finances, while their father is training in the mountains.[18] The manga never mentions Pudding's mother, while the anime adaptation states that she died.[27] Midway through the series, Pudding is captured by their enemy Tart and held hostage. Rather than fearing him, she befriends him.[28] In the final battle, she is reluctant to fight Tart, but does when he affirms they have no choice. After he is defeated, she cries over him.[19] At the end of the series, Pudding kisses Tart and tells him she does not want it to be goodbye and he says he may return to see her.[20] In the anime adaptation, the relationship between Pudding and Tart is somewhat expanded and their the circumstances of their initial friendship changes. Instead of being saved by the Mew Mews, Tart himself saves Pudding from the underground cavern when he realizes she is suffocating from a lack of oxygen
