What Season 1 of The Cuphead Show!
In the Inkwell Isles, a world inspired by 1930s cartoons, Cuphead and Mugman are two cup-shaped brothers. They live in a teapot-shaped house with their grandfather and Elder Kettle, who looks after them. Cuphead acts without thinking and always ends up in trouble. Mugman, more cautious, gives in quickly whenever someone pushes him. Each episode kicks off with a prank or a problem that the two try to solve as best they can. Their predicaments include a rigged carnival, a mysterious baby, a boxing club and a vegetable-infested garden. They also cross paths with characters from the original video game, such as the Devil, who keeps a close eye on them.
