A laugh was had by all, and the conversation moved on. "The Puffy" was one of the titles presented by Roger Joseph Manning's friend Greg Hillegas. The name "Puffy" most likely comes from Andy Sturmer's conscious or unconscious recollection of the night he and his bandmates/friends in the (as of then unnamed) band Jellyfish were trying to come up with funny/catchy band names. After their performance at SXSW, attorneys for Sean "Puffy" Combs sent the band a cease and desist letter asking them to change their name. Puffy made their first US appearance as part of Music Japan's "An Evening with Japan's All-Stars" showcase at the 2000 South by Southwest (SXSW) festival in Austin, Texas. Their first release "Asia no Junshin" sold a million records and their success has continued with several more full-length releases (totaling 15 million sales in Japan). The band gained mainstream success in Japan during 1998, following the release of their Jet album and tour in support of it. They sing in Japanese and English.Ami Onuki, whose nickname is Jane, and Yumi Yoshimura, nicknamed Sue, were scouted by Sony-affiliated talent agencies and put together in the mid-1990s.
The group continues to go by the moniker of PUFFY in Japan, but in order to avoid legal naming conflicts with Sean Combs, have adopted the name Puffy AmiYumi in the United States. Puffy AmiYumi transferred to Warner Music Japan in 2015. The band consists of two female artists: Yumi Yoshimura, nicknamed Sue, and Ami Onuki, whose nickname is Jane. Puffy AmiYumi is a pop/rock Japanese band that performs the Teen Titans Go! and Teen Titans theme songs.
