A while ago I drew Pucca as how she would look like with a more anime-like appearance and now, since one of my female friends asked me to draw her some pictures of Pucca with a more anime feel, I went out and gave it a shot. These are the preliminaries sketches featuring Abio and Pucca.   Note:I didn't have much time to fix them at all, just enough to create their outfits and looks. Oh! and i even came up with a bloody storyline for this type of designs, might as well post it here later on. Anyway, are these designs good enough? Abio looks like Bruce Lee and his leg looks funny lol

You're drawing them as adults, right? They both look Chinese, which is good. Abio's recognizable. I think Pucca would be more recognizable if she only had buns. I think they're good designs and I'd like to hear the story.

Pucca Story Pilot Pucca
In the far away land of Suuga, there's a legend about a mysterious girl that became the
savior of the people and eventually, became a goddess, but in order to understand her way
divinity we have to start from the very beginning.
Long ago, Suuga village was the target of numerous attacks of several beings, and among
them, 3 were the most feared. Devils that called themselves Demon Lords drove the land to
endless wars because of their hunger for power.
One day, in the middle of a fight, they heard the faint cry of a baby, "A human's baby cry"
the three noted. With the intention of devouring the creature, they held her in their arms
but instead of eating her, they somehow decided to not only let the little human live, but
to also raise her claiming that it was much worse of a fate than killing her which eventually
led them to stop their wars.
They named the baby "Pucca", a name that apparently "fit well to that little human".
Years passed and while Pucca grew, the demon lords decided to avoid confrontations and join
forces for the sake of the little girl.
They taiught her everything they knew, and while she did not have the ability to talk nor see
(apparently) she grew to become a woman of unmatchable beauty and strength, and during her
time in the mountains, called "Devil's graveyard", she was very happy with the beings she
knew as "fathers".
The demon lords never restrained her from meeting other humans, and in fact, they encouraged
her to meet with other people and make friends in Suuga, the village that was at the bottom
of the mountains.
Among the villagers she was very well known, protected and loved, thing that the demon lords
appreciated and in exchange for that, they vowed to protect Suuga against other demons or any
other danger with their own lives.
One day, while picking water from the nearby river, Pucca found the body of a wounded ninja.
He was uncoscious and about to die because the blood he lost, it seemed like the works of
a wild animal. After all the forest around Suuga had the most dangerous beasts of the whole
continent.
Afraid that he'd die, she took the ninja with her to her fathers, hoping that it wasn't too
late for him.
After a few days of constant aid from Pucca, the young ninja finally woke up. He inmediately
noticed that his mask was off, showing his somewhat short black messy hair.
Meticulously he inspected the room looking for something familiar and then he noticed a girl
that seemed to have fallen asleep due to tiredness. "She's beautiful...but, who is she?
Where is this place and Why am I here?"- Suddenly he senses the presence of powerful beings,
demonic beings, to be more precise. Rapidly he searched for his sword, but it nowhere to be
found and when he tried to stand up he felt a sharp painin his chest.
Bandages were covering the wounds which once again started to reopen because of the sudden
moves he made. He started to panic as there was no way out of that room that only had a door,
and it was the door that was leading to the demons, and also, there was that beautiful girl...
-"I need to get out of here!"- he thought when a deep voice said:
-"Oh, I think our guest finally woke up"-"I thought he was a goner"
-"I knew he was gonna make it"-another voice added.
He was scared, but what could he do?
-"Don't move boy, otherwise your wounds will start bleeding again and won't heal at all"- said
a shadow that started to take form as it walked towards him.
-"Plus, you're gonna wake our beautiful daughter"-he implied with serious yet relaxed tone.
-"Daughter!? Is this girl...their daughter?! Then she must be a demon! But why can't I sense
anything at all?!"-His thoughts were interrupted when the shadows became clearer.
He was in shock because he could simply not believe what his eyes were seeing...three gigantic
demons. He was still too weak so he knew it was futile to fight back, but then, one of the
demon lords said:
-"Relax human, if we wanted to kill you, you'd be death by now, plus, it's because of us that
your wounds are so well treated"
-"Our beloved Pucca found you half dead by the riverside and she brought you to us"
-"You owe her your life, and besides, the reason why she's sleeping there is because she has
been taking good care of you hoping to see you ragain consciousness"
-"Now, until you fully recover, you cannot leave this place. That way you will keep company
to our Pucca, who seems to have gotten used to you very fast"-he implied with a smirk on his
face.
-"Thank you"- the young ninja tried to say, but he was interrupted by a move Pucca made.
After a few weeks, the young ninja was ready to set off, or so he believed-while looking down
the hills he got lost in thought.-Where could he go? He no longer had a place that he could go
back to, but soon he came to his senses when the subtle sobbings of Pucca lowly filled the
space the silence was now leaving.
-"You don't have a place to go to, right?"-One of the demons asked.
-"Those wounds...were not caused by an animal like Pucca thought, those were sword cuts"
-"Why were you cut like that? Were you being hunted down?"
Those last words seemed to have hit the bullseye, and the expression pucca had, changed as she
realized that the matter concerning the young Ninja was worse than what they believed.
-"...I was being hunted down by my clan, because I betrayed them..."
A brief moment of silence covered the hills and all that could be heard was the wind running
through the trees.
Finally, the demons said:
-"You should stay with us for a while, that way you can learn the arts of the cutting wind"
-"...and the rage of flames..."
-"...And also the strength of the earth!"
-"B-but, I don't get it, why are you doing this for me when I just told you I betrayed my own
clan?!"
The young man replied with an almost broken voice.
-"Because our daughter trusts you"
-"See, she is very special, she can see the truth hidden in people's hearts"
-"She might not be able to speak, but we can understand her feelings as if she could spoke them
out"- the demons pointed out.
-"But, we will only train you if you promise to protect her and take care of her when we're
gone"- For a second Pucca seemed like words were about to slip through her lips, but in the end
nothing came out.
-"...I swear, I swear I'll give my life to protect her!"- The ninja said with a loud voice.
-"Well said!!"
-"Now now, we can't have a disciple if we don't know his name"
-"That's correct, we don't know your name yet, ninja"
-"Oh, sorry, my name's Garu. Garu of the village of the hidden wind, please take good care of
me masters!"
"Hidden Wind", it was surely a name the demon lords hadn't heard in a long time.
Years passed and Garu got used to the lifestyle with the demon lords and Pucca. From time to
time they would visit Suuga village where Garu and Pucca made special friends, among them,
Abyo, with whom Garu trained his taijutsu and Lin-Lin which became Pucca's closest friend.
Garu's abilities greatly increased, to the point where the demon lords had no need to protect
Suuga anymore because it was more than enough with Garu. This earned him a reputation of a great
and exceptional ninja and soon those news started to spread across the lands, leading him to
troubles and situations very hard to deal with.
One day, while Pucca and him were in Suuga buying groceries, the Devil's Graveyard fell under
attack.
No one really noticed what was going on until smoke started to rise.
As fast as he could, Garu headed back to his masters', leaving Pucca and Lin-Lin behind, who
didn't notice the conmotion behind them.
On his way to the mountain top, Abyo joined him and when they finally got there, a crude scene
was covering the field. Two of the three demon lords were brutally killed, and the remaining
one was in a grave condition, but, who could've done such a thing? who could be able to
confront the demon lords and defeat them at once? They would soon find the answers as the smoke
and dust started to dissipate.
Black samurai armor, gigantic size and long mustache, there was no doubt, it was the hidden
wind's chief, Garu's first master.
-"What is he doing here? why would he throw an attack like that to the demon lords?"
So many questions filled Garu's head as he tried the comprehend the bizarre `picture before him.
Abyo, that was also in shock, quickly came back to his senses and got ready for battle.
-"My, my, look who we have here, if it isn't the prodigal son, the traitor Garu. I thought
Tobe took care of you five years ago"-The samurai said.
-"Wait, do you know this guy, Garu?"-Abyo asked confused-"What the hell is he?! How could
he defeat the demon lords so easily?!"
-"...he was my former mentor back at Hidden Wind's village and right after rejecting a mission
I was tagged as a traitor and were persecuted to eventually get killed..."
-"tsk, As nostalgic as this might be, I must be parting now. My goal is almost in my grasp!
But fear not, my beloved son, your brother Tobe will handle you and hopefully, this time,
there won't be any failures..."-his body started to fade slowly as he spoke.
From the shadows Tobe emerges and with him several other ninjas as well.
-"This time Garu, I'll make sure you meet death by my hand!"
-"...Tobe..."-Garu said with a sad tone, it was obvious that he didn't want to fight him but
he had no choice.
Meanwhile the samurai figure responsible for the slaughter had already vanished, not leaving
a trace of his presence. He was gone.
-"Ninjas, Kill them!!"- A shout from Tobe announced the beginning of the fight.
Back in Suuga, Lin-Lin notices the smoke courtain coming from the Devil's Graveyard and soon
after Garu's absense. She inmediately asked the people around where he went and after finding
out where he headed, both Pucca and her rushed to his aid.
By the time the two girls arrived, both Abyo and Garu were in deep trouble, the never ending
ninjas were coming at them non stop. As soon as Pucca tried to aid them she noticed the
corpses of the demon lords. For a moment she couldn't believe it...her fathers...were dead.
For the first time in 18 years, Pucca opened her eyes and right after clouds covered the clear
blue sky. Lightings and strong winds that could break trees like toothpicks joined the bad
weather.
Her eyes, which at the beginning were black, started to turn into red and her black silky
hair, which had two baos, got loose and started to elevate.
This was the first time ever that Pucca got like that, and Abyo, Lin-Lin and Garu couldn't
comprehend nor believe what they were seeing.
-"ah...AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!"-That loud cry came out of her, and right after it strong gusts
of wind started to form small tornadoes.
-"Fa-ther...fa-ther"-Garu and the others could no longer hear her voice, but they could read
her lips.
Soon after a sphere-like force shield sorrounded her and with each step she took towards her
enemies, the weather got crazier and in Suuga Village it could be felt.
-"What is...?!"- Tobe was about to say when wind rushed at him sending most of ninjas flying.
-"Suck power?! Just who are you? WHAT ARE YOU?!"-Tobe felt the wind making small cuts all
over his body.
Garu tried to tell her to stop, because the village was going to be destroyed with her power,
but words wouldn't get through her, she was already far beyond her own senses.
A hurricanestroke the ground as if it was created by her own will, her destructive power was
inmense.
Tobe, afraid of such power decided to strike first sending his subordinates to kill Pucca, but
the power was so strong that their bodies shattered before they could even come close to her.
Their weapons seemed to have come to life to aid Pucca as each sword, shuriken, dagger, knife
and hand granade, created a circle which seemed to be protecting her.
-"No! it can't be real! you cannot exist!!! You're just a simple legend, nothing more!!!"
Tobe exclaimed, seeing himself alone in the battlefield now that his last remaining subordinates
were dead.
-"I'm not gonna die here, not until I kill you and Garu!!"-Tobe searched in his pockets for a
smoke bomb, when suddently all weapons sorrounding Pucca were flying at his direction.
An explosion followed that last attack and as it did, Pucca's powers started to fade away. Her
lose hair came back down and her eyes regained the black color they once had and soon after
she collapsed.
Garu, Abyo and Lin-Lin, who managed up until then, to barely survive, looked with horror the
scene left after the disaster. The Devil's Graveyard was now making honor to it's name. where
several corpses were laying around, including the ones of the demon lords.
-"What happened? what on earth just happened?" Abyo, Garu and Lin-Lin kept wondering. Why,
Pucca, that up until that day never opened her eyes could do it and with it bring fort such
destructive power? Garu and the others just simply couldn't understand...
A few days passed since that incident and ever since, Pucca seemed like a Zombie. Her eyes that
were always closed, were now open, but they showed such sadness that it would be better not
to see them.
As Garu tried his best to understand the meaning of all of what happened, he came to the conclusion
of leaving Sugga along with Pucca to find some answers, and the only one that could give him some
was the sage, said to live at the top of the tallest mountain known to man, Mount Jifu.
And so he parted with Pucca, off to finding the truth. The truth about Hidden Mist's chief, the
demon lords and the truth about Pucca.
After thinking it well, Abyo decided to join Garu and Pucca and so did Lin-Lin. The first clue
of finding that sage was visiting the village in the far south, Xong. Land of the "Tai-chi".
That would be the story.
I will include the other designs later on lol

What does "her way divinity" mean? Anyway, that's good. I recognized a lot of the characters, even before you named them, because of how you described them. It's really dramatic and has action, but is still recognizable as being Pucca.
Some stuff - they go so far out that I'm not even sure why the person even wrote fanfiction.

Would be "Her way to divinity".
It's just that I haven't fixed it yet =P
