[edit] Characters and Mecha
Her real name is 紅山苺 (Beniyama, Ichigo). Strawberry is the first member of the group, and the pilot of Glastonbury unit 1 (G1), a red-colored land battle mecha. Her unit's signature attack is referred to as "Strawberry on the Shortcake." Her weapon is a basic leather whip.
Originally, she was just a quiet, ordinary student at school.

At school, she is the secretary treasurer of the student council.
The combined form Glastonbury is a large space battle mecha. It is a result of the G1, G2, and G3 combining together, a concept seen in several other real-life mecha anime. It is capable of emitting laser attacks, and alternatively, tri-laser attacks. Glastonbury's signature, charged special attack destroys everything in its field of vision, and is referred to as "Anarchy in the Galaxy."
Jishū, 平安京時宗 (Heiankyō, Jishū), is the school's number 1 cutest guy, who is worshipped by practically all the girls at the school. He soon confesses his love to the unprepared Ichigo Beniyama (Strawberry).

[edit] Production
While the anime does not exist in reality, its appearances in No More Heroes imply that it is a commercially successful series in that universe. Travis Touchdown, the game's main protagonist, owns dozens, if not hundreds of pieces of Pure White Lover Bizarre Jelly merchandise. His motel room contains several obvious examples of action figures, pillows, clocks, soundtracks, stickers, a calendar, a poster, and even a video game. Travis can also obtain a number of official clothing from the series, sporting such designs as the likenesses of the three main characters and even of their individual Glastonburies. A limited edition pink and white-toned jacket, pants and belt set also sell high to merchandise collectors.
"Heavenly Star" by Genki Rockets is also allegedly used as the anime's opening theme.
[edit] Future real-life adaption
In a March 15, 2008 interview with Computer and Video Games, Goichi Suda revealed that a possible real-life anime adaption of the series would be produced in the future, saying, "As you may know, our publisher, Marvelous, actually does a lot of animation work, so it's something that has been discussed. We were actually in discussions to do something with the Bizarre Jelly characters as seen on Travis' shirt, but I have no idea how serious they were. Hey, tell your readers if they want to see it, write in and give them the feedback. There's every chance it could get made."
[edit] Trivia
- "Heavenly Star" by Genki Rockets can be heard several times throughout No More Heroes. The music video for the song can also be watched on Travis' television in the Japanese and European versions of the game.
- In No More Heroes, each of Strawberry, Blueberry and Cranberry's signature attacks are shouted aloud by Travis when influenced by a specific Dark Side mode. Glastonbury's signature attack, Anarchy in the Galaxy, is also an enormous explosion move used by Travis when three 7s are earned in one stock. The name of the attack itself could possibly be a reference to the Sex Pistols song "Anarchy in the U.K.".
- Originally, the logo of No More Heroes Wiki borrowed from the most famous promotional image of Pure White Lover Bizarre Jelly.
