The Guava Juice Show follows the wacky and wild adventures of 14-year-old Roi and his best friends, fearless fellow teen Jenny and Guava, a risk-averse neurotic talking fruit, as they work at a mysterious curio shop and travel to fantastical parallel worlds throughout the multiverse in a magical bathtub. Whether searching for a mundane item for a customer or meeting dysfunctional twin superheroes or a seemingly evil computer with a heart of gold, their adventures always go somewhere unexpected with Roi, Jenny and Guava getting more than they bargained for and fighting to rein in the chaos around them!

The Guava Juice Show models compassion, curiosity, confidence, loyalty and the irreplaceable value of best friends.
