Demashitaa! Powerpuff Girls Z

Meh. I couldn't locate the other thread. Wondering if it got lost in the tides of time. (And Yes I did check using Search.)

Anywho, Aniplex announced some more details in regards to the PowerPuff Girls Z anime. First off, they showed a new, which was much shorter then the last pilot. The designs have been tweaked, and they no longer seem to have weapons anymore. Also, the plot seems it's possible it's been changed quite a bit from last time. They also announced that they will be airing the series possibly on TV-Tokyo in Japan on July 2006. Currently, there is no plans for this series to Air in North America.

Also, some new screenshots for people who want to see: (Putting it in spoiler box)

The text beneath the kid says his name's Ken, and he's the son of Professor Utonium.

I'm surprised the gang green gang stayed basically the same! They were bound to change arturo though... there's no way to translate that into japanese .

And you say there are no plans to air it in america? Maybe cartoon network is waiting to see the finished product before comitting to anything, but assuming they have the rights to air it, that's just like printing money for them as far as I'm concerned...

I'm not trying to say that Cartoonetwork doesn't have it, but the Aniplex person during the TAF, mentioned this. So I'd defeantly take what was said true. Though, I do hope this shows up in US someday, hopefully completely intact.

Cartoon Network has some hand in this, their name (written in katakana, カートゥーン・ネットワーク) shows up in the series info for this over on moonphase.cc as the channel airing PPGZ.

Isn't that the japanese cartoon network? It's a seperate channel so... in all likelihood it'll air on some mainstream tv station like tv tokyo, and then reair later on cartoonnetwork japan... But I don't think it implies anything about it airing on Cartoon Network in america.

some other stuff if you haven't seen it yet, though once again...the actual show art is different from the regular stuff we've seen, like Disgaea =\

Looking around a bit I noticed it first talked about last April. I thought I searched the forums for any mention. My search-fu is weak tonight.

As for videos (quicktime, right click and save as). Video Clip 1 (Attacks), Video Clip 2 (Transformation)

Trailer

Yes, they are now magical girls.

Edit: Added links to clips and trailer.

And thus, begins the talkback to one of the most wondered about Anime project. What I'm more interested is why Cartoonetwork of America has danced around the existance of this project. Soemthing tells me they're going to wait and see how this does in Japan before making a final decision. Or maybe leave it in Japan. (PPG is alot more popular in Japan than it is here. Go figure.)

But in the meantime, now that atleast the promo's been subbed, I guess this makes sense to be a discussion.

EDIT: I just realized Animesuki linked to this thread... Eh, whoever moderates, can decide. =P

I wonder how many seasons this will last in Japan, or if they plan to make a serious series out of this American creation. Things like a Powerpuff Girl dying, Mojo-Jojo as evil as Johan ... stuff like that ... but that's a very long shot ... maybe it's going to be another Onegai My Melody ...

From the look of the promo video, I very much doubt that it's going to be a serious series.

Yeah, that's why Buttercup possessing an Akagi-attitude is so far out, and Mojo Jojo having that Johan-evil is quite impossible. How many episodes do you guess will this be - 200? 500? lol

My guess is 52, with another season or two added on if it's popular enough.

My favorite redesign is Buttercup... though she was my favorite in the original series tool >_>;;

Here's a crazy insane theory that's totally wrong:

Toei decided to pull out all the martial arts specialists from Pretty Cure for its third season so that they could be free to work on PPGZ! So we'll get to see some serious butt-kicking, and this time with actual fists instead of just stumps.

Let's just put it this way: If blossom, bubbles and buttercup have to finish off giant monsters with some kind of combined magical attack instead of punching them in the face, I will be very sad.

I was hoping they'd do stuff like Bubbles having a fscking nasty alter-ego and Blossom having boy problems, and Buttercup being afraid of rats or stuff like that ... that would seem good, anyway.

Bubbles going crazy is always good fun. Remember the episode she thought she was Mojo Jojo?
I hope they remake that one .
Don't make her angry, or she'll summon an army of rabid squirrels to come and get you.

Cool It has come

The first episode of PowerPuff Girls Z has aired in Japan.

Look at those screenies from futaba, and it looks like that all the bad guys from the American cartoon were imported to the anime but redesigned.
