Cloudkirby anime review: PPGZ

It seems to me that adding Z to the end of things Is a popular trend in anime culture. Somehow Z seems to make everything a whole lot better...in an alternate universe! In this one, however, Z seems to make things a whole lot worse. PPGZ is a good example of this.

Before I go into how udderly bad this is, let me talk about the origional Powerpuff Girls. The Powerpuff Girls was an americain cartoon from the 90's, the premise of which was a laughing riot. Three super powered kindergarden girls beating up the manliest of bad guy men. It was hilarious and very entertaining. Ranks third on my "Top cartoons of all time" list. (just below the simpsons at 2 and animaniacs at 1) The hilarious villans and unintentionally funny diolaugue only added to the greatness. So adding Z at the end should make it way better, right...WRONG!!

Z makes the first mistake by placeing the series in the future, after the origional PPG. Professor Utonium is now experementing with chemical Z (Ah, I see what you did there japan) in Tokyo city and has a son out of @#$%ing nowhere. Anyway, random events happen (I wasn't paying attention) and suddenly it explodes into a light dark scenario. The dark effects the bad guys while the good effects three teenage(mistake 2) girls who are not related in any way(mistake 3) and the effects don't show untill they put on power armour(mistake 4).

What sickens me the most are the bad guy changes. let me run them down.

Fuzzy lumpkins: Country bumpkin who is a model citizen untill you touch his stuff and piss him off.
Fuzzy Z: Retarded beast who wants everything for himself.
Mojo jojo: The former lab assistaint to utonium who was also effected by the chemical x blast which made him ironic. He also talked with speach that was hilarious.
Mojo Z: Still has the speach but is now a random monkey which takes away the hilarious irony.
Him: An effeminant devil with incredible evil powers.
Him Z: Some reterded clown thing.
And the worst change ever
Rowdyruff boys: three equivelant boys to the PPG who were stronger in terms of combat but always lost because the girls outsmarted them, which made the fightscenes like a funny gender war.
RRBZ: Uuuhgh...Three juvinial delinquents who pull pranks and cause general misery.

Seriously The RRB are my second favorite bad guy, the first always going to the unparalleled king of evil, Bowser, and they were also the most hilarious, why they had to change them I don't get. I hope the PPGZ stay out of america because It SUCKS!!!

I guess it just goes to show, never Customize twentieth century art. You may like it but no one else will because you RUINED A CLASSIC!!!

Z is only good at the end of Super Mario Bros.
