Powerpuff Girls Z Discussion (It's Official)

Power Puff Girls Z






This looks to be real. If not, this is the most well done and elaborate April Fools hoax I've ever seen. I'll wait till i'm more positive before actually claiming it "news" tho >_>


Edit by Karl - It's official. It's a Toei/CN co-pro, read the thread for more info on it.

That's looks cool. Do you think CN will sue or encourage it? I think this will encourage other shows to be "anime-nized". *CoughBleedmanCough*

It's likely true, from what I can tell. The Tokyo International Animation Festival is this weekend, it runs 3-31 through 4-03

aww... They look great. It does look as if there are some legaleze at the bottom of the individual prints which may or maynot be copyright/licensing shtick.

Or they may just be fancy hoaxes.

Yeah, there's a good chnage this is a doujin, Powerpuff Girls is pretty big in Japan. Then again, if it's real, then I'd imagine Cartoon Network would have lisenced and/or funded this.

Well, from some other pictures on Waka-Chan, that billboard was apprently shot in a building with the "Avex Mode" logo plasered on it?

Here we are.



Somthing Avex is not leting out?

Or is it like Transfromers? IE: once the US series runs dry, the anime peeps will have their play?

Awesome, I`d love to see this.

Since the american PPG series is over, this could be true.

It's been rumoured for the past year or so... I can't remember which one, but a certain newspaper showed some pictures that looked very similar to this. Although, that was only a rumour at the time... This could turn out very interesting. I can't wait to see Mojo Jojo in anime form. On the poster he looks hilarious!

Utonium just doesn't look right. And without the creators/original writer(s)/original storyboard staff, this just can't be any good.

Wow, the Powerpuff Girls have completely lost all their innovative stylisation.

They should've done a Dexter's lab anime or a Johnny Bravo anime.

This may not be fake. If we've gotten a Mario, an ninja turtles anime, then yes, it's possible.

EDIT: It's real. It mentions the it's in production, and has an unknown airdate.
Avex seems to be overlooking production. If anyone has knowledge to the creator...please contact him about this.

BTw, this is more probable as this when aired on TVTokyo and CartoonNetwork of Japan aired, it was very very popular.

While I'm skeptical whether this is true or not, I can say that the person who designed the pictures definitely did a good job giving the PPG an anime feel.

Since I don't think they allow doujin-ka into the Tokyo Anime Fair, I'm hinging on this atleast being a pitch. Could even be 2nd of the 3 CN-Co-pros. Granted, I'm biased because I'd love for it to be real. It combines my cute anime obession with my affinity for the Powerpuff Girls. Therefore, how can I not wish that it was real?
