Personally, I think it looks like great fun :grin:

Reminds me of the PPG Doujinshi (Comic is found here )

Alberto, if you can't say something nice (or accept your opinion as, gasp, not the ultimate definition of truth) don't bother posting. Jeikobu is right, to lord your opinion as the only way of truth is not only arrogant but just plain rude. Any more of these snide posts will simply be deleted and strikes awarded.

Interesting... I'm wondering if this is maybe supposed to be the girls as young teens or something. They definitely look like they're supposed to be older than preschoolers.

But I do agree with the previous sentiments... hopefully it will be some good, family friendly (but still good) stuff.

Yup yup, even though it was simply a jest. : P

From now on I'll just have to put in big bold letters that I am kidding.

I, for one, will watch it. I don't see what the big deal is...it's just CN trying to cash in on the anime craze. : P

xD the designs for the Powerpuff Girls look pretty good, but....*died laughing at the Professor* I'll have to see this at least once, if only so I can laugh at the Professor more.

but why would CN have to cash in on the anime craze when they already owned ppg, so all they really had to do was make more of the show

I want to see that!!!! kawaii!!!!!!!

This looks good so far, but I still prefer Bleedman's art to these new guys.

I really wish they hadn't taken Bubbles' name so seriously.

Hmmm...it seems they decided to change the story line a bit...why an iceberg?

I totally agree! ^_____^

I'm looking forward to seeing what they do with this.

Wow, so those are the new Power Puff Girls, now that's anime for ya. THis is definitly going to be better then regular ppg since reg had them as children, Anime has them as teenagers or young adults!

I'm not a big fan of the oringinal PPG but this looks interesting and reminds my of salior moon. Which i like.

Postby **Blitzkrieg1701** » Sat Apr 16, 2005 8:31 pm

I'm conflicted over this... interesting concept. On the one hand, they seem to be abandoning the aspects of the original PPG thatI love best: Craig McCracken's flair for great dialogue, pop culture satire, deceptively subtle stories, and a healthy sence of irony. On the other hand, that's a very unfair thing to say at this point isn't it? All the changes and apparent rip-offs of other anime could potentially turn out to be a witty send-up of anime conventions and Japanese pop culture... if it's done right (and it weathers the dubbing process well) that is.

Serious stuff like that aside, it DOES look pretty well made. I'm gonna be cautiously optimistic at the moment.

Whoa. I don't know what to think.

BTW, it's "Demashitaa" not "Damashitaa", according to the kanji on the poster. "Demashitaa" means "came out, emerged" literally, but the way it's used I think it would be better translated as "We're/it's here!" with much dramatic flair. "Damashitaa" means something more along the lines of "tricked you~!"

Do you think this could be the start of a new trend where the Japanese take western shows and re-create them? I heard they did this type of thing with the ninja turtles and now they are doing it to the powerpuff girls.

Just one more sign that the apocalypse is closer than we think.

The show looks cute and a bit outrageous. It would be funny if it was a parody of Sailor Moon while retaining some of the original feel of the American PPG show.

I don't think it's my style of show, though-- It looks a bit too cutesy.

Postby **Street** » Wed May 11, 2005 11:44 am

I'm one of the few who is for this. I never liked the original Power Puff girls but regardless in my opinion the anime versions of them are just about the cutest anime girls ever.

I agree, I think in some cases Cross-Overs are pretty cool. While I will probably never really get into the Powerpuff Girls on either shore, I am interested to see how this comes out. With some good writers and quality animation, Japan could really turn this series into something humorusly enjoyable.

I look forward to seeing the result of this little experament of theirs.

Hahaha wow I'm actually not the only one.

Anyways yeah I think most of the people who are speaking are indeed fans of the powerpuff girls so yeah In my opinion I do think I just need to butt out of this conversation.
But to be honest with you, I actually am looking forward to this. I think give it a chance for one... If it sucks, do you really think it's gonna last anyways?

anyways this the last you'll hear from me on the matter. It's coming out like it or not.

Hahaha But I guess this is a situation where yeah I'd probably :bang:

my head a hundred times then see most anime's be given an American cartoon treatment....
hahaha think of what that Sailor Moon Cartoon would have done had it been released?

Postby **SwordSkill** » Wed Jun 08, 2005 7:23 pm

Hahahaha! That looks pretty cool, I'll be looking forward to that. (Love Buttercup's hair.) Besides, it can't be worse than Japan's live action adaptation of SPIDA-MAAAAN! XDDDDDDD

Well it happen, and its not an April fools joke too. Powerpuff Girls Anime!
