The Puring Rings powering up.
The Puring Rings (プリングリング, Puringu Ringu) are Mew Pudding's main weapon. In both the anime and manga, Pudding uses her weapon to give an attack that has the ability to immobilize the Chimera Animas, giving the other Mew Mews the opportunity to finish it off.
Appearance
The Puring Rings in the 1st Manga series.
The Puring Rings consists of one yellow tambourine and a smaller, orange hoop-shaped item with a small jingle bell on it. The golden bow is in the middle on the top of the tambourine. Like the other weapons, there's a heart in the middle of the bow with Ichigo's Mew Mark in the middle.
In the first manga series, the Puring Rings consisted of two hoola-hoop type objects. In A la Mode, the weapon gets changed to the anime version's design.

Name Changes (Manga)
Due to the confusion in the pun, most all 3 manga translations decided to use the name "Pudding Ring", which is the original intent without the pun. Also, in the manga, Mew Pudding does not say "Ribbon" in her attack name, unless she says it with the group. In Tokyo Mew Mew 2020 Re-Turn the Puring Rings were given a 2nd attack.
