- I removed the speedy tag, because the title gets about 70 hits [1], or maybe 305 [2] so it's not a complete fabrication. Seem to be mostly blogs and fan pages though. Kappa 05:04, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Bubbles attack
Rolling Bubbles does not have a second attack which she could throw her wand as a boomerang. It was a wrong was of using it. (see episode 2 for details) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 202.36.179.66 (talk) 22:57, 22 April 2007 (UTC).
Hyper, Rolling, Powered not needed
Hyper Blossom, Rolling Bubbles, and Powered Buttercup are only shouted during the transformation sequences. Beyond that, they are still called Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup (only after transformation). Therefore, there is no need to add adjectives in with their names.
- No, every official PPGZ site lists their actual names as "Hyper Blossom", "Powered Buttercup" and "Rolling Bubbles". It's not just a henshin thing. Sure shortening them is fine, they do so in the show all the time. But in the cast list section at least the full names should be given.
- I'm fine with that. It just doesn't need to be used in every section cuz it get redundant. Using their henshin names is fine in the cast list section, but using it in every character bio is very redundant.
- But they CALL themselves Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup, at least in what I've seen so far. --24.48.127.47 21:07, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

- But they CALL themselves Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup, at least in what I've seen so far. --24.48.127.47 21:07, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
- Indeed when they introduce themselves in the first episodes like this: "My name is Akatsutsumi Momoko. I transform into Blossom." "My name is Matsubara Kaoru. I transform into Buttercup." It doesn't matter much, tho. Harg 11:08, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
U.S. broadcast?
Will this be shown in the U.S., or just in Japan? tregoweth 17:57, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
- It will be, but when is unknown. [User:Beau99|Beau99]] 21:10, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
- Actually, Cartoon Network US has not even acknowledged its existence for some reason, leaving me to believe they're iffy on bringing it here. - ChibiGoku 02:05, 31 May 2006
- According to various internet sources, PPGZ will air on Tokyo TV Saturday, July 1 at 7:00 AM, Japan Time. Since the concept was based on the characters of Craig McCracken, it is very certain this series will come to the United States probably within the next year. --Bushido Hacks 06:02, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
- I think it seems very unlikely that the U.S. Cartoon Network agrees to broadcast a spin-off series with so much foreign cultural contents in it... unless it gets HEAVILY edited. ChaosAngelZero 22 July 2006
- A couple episodes are currently being translated for streaming on Cartoon Network's Jetstream site, to test the waters for the rest of the series. Strephon 02:38, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
Kitazawa or Ikiko?
This article lists that the boy professor's surname is 北沢 Kitazawa, but a recent screenshot shows his name to be 息子 Ikiko. Can anyone confirm which one is the right one before I change it? --Sotaru 13:38, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
- It isn't read ikiko, it's read 'musuko' meaning 'son' in Japanese. Instead of replacing Professor Utonium with boy professor Ken Kitazawa, they have decided to bring back Professor Utonium and make Ken Kitazawa (北沢ケン) his son (息子).--Sequitur 17:12, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
But is his name really Kitazawa (as it still lists in the characters section), or is it Utonium (as listed in the cast section)?--Sotaru 13:56, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
Hey, the article says profesor Kitazawa's first name isn't mentioned during the show... I was under the impression his name was Kitazawa Utonium or something? Then again, it doesn't make sense to call him by his first name... hmm. Can someone confirm this please?
According to this scan from the booklet contained in the Collector's Edition DVD Volume 3 that I personally provided, it indeed says that his name is indeed Ken Kitazawa. Also, if you watch the show, he is always referred to as Ken. The only time I remember him being addressed by his full name was in episode 24, when he was introduced to the class, and in episode 37, when he refers himself as "The Lovely Fighting Science Boy, Ken Kitazawa Z!" Umandsf 23:56, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
- They were asking about Professor Utonium, not Ken. I also have not hear the Professor's first name, nor do I think any reason is given for why they call him Utonium, except to identify him as being derived from the original. HyperBlossom 12:12, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

NOT A FORUM
DELETED COMMENTS This is not a forum for bitching, it's a discussion on facts in the wiki entry. I'm deleting these comments. 70.242.158.180 13:24, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
Criticism Section
While I realize there is criticism of the show, I just removed an entire criticism section because it was all uncited and clearly the opinion of the author of the statements. However, it would be helpful to get some reviews of the show that meet Wikipedia source standards, since it will inevitably be compared to its progenitor.Rebochan 23:54, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
Make the Criticism Section back! You are a really Bad Girl! 26.Sep.2006
Peach vs Poochie
Anime News Network lists it as Peach: http://animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=5371 ...and a Google search of ピーチ brings up Peach, specifically Princess Peach. Using my dictionary..it looks like this.ピ(Pi)ーチ(Chi) Peach also shares the same first three katakana ピーチ姫. So I'm changing all instances of Poochie to Peach. -Sukecchi 01:24, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
- Speaking of Peach, is Peach male female or gender netural? GracieLizzie 20:23, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
- I would guess neutral, since Peach is a robot. Torca 03:29, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
- Speaking of Peach, is Peach male female or gender netural? GracieLizzie 20:23, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
Comic
Is there supposed to be a comic for this, featured in Ribon magazine?--Sotaru 13:22, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
Yeah. I found a couple of the scans on another site, but I forgot which site it was.
Picture
Um...what happened to the picture for the top of the page? Was it deleted? .-. -Sukecchi 02:37, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
The trivia section
I was thinking of adding that blossom thought she was going to be raped in episode 2, can anyone actually clarify this? Wikisquared 13:21, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
Ok since no one is replying, i'll add it anyway, if you want it removed, give me your reasons. Wikisquared 20:55, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
To Whoever Removed the Abilities
I don't know if there was something wrong with that being there or what. I don't know, but I'm thinking of making a separate section for the attacks, just like in the japanese wiki article for PPGZ. Is that not okay with anyone?—Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.193.206.39 (talk • contribs)
- It's just so unnecessary.—ウルタプ 00:13, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
- Is that so wrong? The japanese wiki article for PPGZ have the attacks listed. Also, when you redid all the info, all the errors that I fixed with the characters reappeared.
Feminism?
"In order to avoid feminism (like actually happened and was shown as being correct in some PPG episodes), at least 1 member of each villain group has been made a female (Excluding the Rowdyruff boys)." The first half of the sentence doesn't make much sense, makes an unsupported assertion about the motivations of the creators, and comes off as editorializing. Is anything before "at least 1 member" necessary? Strephon 02:49, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
--
I don't think this "trangressing at least one gender in a group" thing is real. Sure the Amoeba Boys had it, but I don't believe the Gangreen Gang did. When I watched Episode 14 subbed, Little Arturo was refered to as a male.
Ponder it how you wish. --GT Koopa 06:54, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
That's just what the fansubbers chose to write, probably. I'm assuming the original line was simply "hayai," or "fast!" since Japanese don't use gender specific pronouns, usually.
- Let me add onto this. They never specifically specify Arturo's gender in the episode, or any future episode they appeared in. The only words they use for Arturo is "Aitsu" or "Koitsu", which are both genderless. - Mendinso —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.72.43.245 (talk) 13:02, 1 March 2007 (UTC).
suggestions
I suggest you...
- ...please follow Wikipedia:WikiProject Anime and manga#Article structure. (especially, use {{anime voices}})
- ...expand information about PPGZ manga.
- ...use {{Japanese episode list}} in the Episode List section.
- ...how about translate "主な登場キャラクター" section in the Japanese article to expand some informations that English contributors doesn't knows.
--JSH-alivetalk to mesee my worksmail to me 14:37, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
Unfortunately, there is barely any information on the PPGZ manga. The only thing I know is that the 6 main characters are the same: Momoko, Miyako, Kaoru, Ken, Utonium, and Peach. Mojo appears and Takaaki appears. Beyond that, there is absolutely no information on the manga.
Villains Section
Noticed that it was moved. Was it that big? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.84.253.44 (talk • contribs) 15:59, 3 December 2006 (UTC).
Nevermind. It's back
-It is too big. That is why I am going to put back the changes. Not everyone has a fast computer.
- That's pretty much why I took down all the screens for the one-shot villains after Takaaki. Even then, it is still pretty big, so I guess it's alright. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.84.253.44 (talk • contribs) 21:29, 3 December 2006 (UTC).
Added second opening...
I added the information available on the second opening. Right now, all that's known is the singer's name. So I put "Title Pending" for the song name. - Mendinso
Hey, I think you should also add the reference of the original series in the second opening, you missed one. When the intro comes to Buttercup's segment, she rolls her tongue, which is an allusion to Buttercup's "power" in the original series. 70.242.158.180 13:30, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
- Is she? It looks to me like she is just sticking out her tongue, not rolling it. HyperBlossom 20:03, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
No, she is rolling her tongue, but it's not drawn the best it could be to show that. Umandsf 13:06, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
I think it's pretty obvious as a reference to the cartoon, so we should lob this little fact in the trivia of the second intro. [3] 70.242.158.180 17:42, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
- Not so obvious if it's not obvious she's rolling her tongue. But I buy Umandsf's explaination. I'll fit it in. HyperBlossom 18:25, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
PPG and PPGZ manias attention!
Please see Talk:The Powerpuff Girls#Separate articles and new navigation template idea.--JSH-alivetalk to mesee my worksmail to me 07:22, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
Sorry, I don't know how to add headers. But, the Blossom section has been very crudely vandalized, and I can't revert it back to the original text. 72.14.125.25
Vandalism
I don't know if the damage was recent enough that it hasn't been noticed yet, but the description of Momoko has been, well, vandalized.
Nevermind.

"Efficient Daughters"?
Just a guess, but wasn't that supposed to mean "Perfect little girls"? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 193.225.146.100 (talk) 11:35, 1 March 2007 (UTC).
By the way, is "大江戸" included in the name "Chakichaki Musume"? If included, I think it is "Daiedo", not "Ōedo".--JSH-alive talk to mesee my worksmail to me 08:13, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
In this case, "大" is pronounced "Ō," since it is coupled with other kanji. Umandsf 19:45, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
English title revealed?!
Cartoon Network in Japan always posts their English scedules in their website, meaning we can see the English title of the series airs on Cartoon Network even that was produced in Japan. According to their schedule in April 1, 2007 in English, the English title of this anime is Powerpuff Girls Z!
Okay, should we move this article to Powerpuff Girls Z?--JSH-alive talk to mesee my worksmail to me 06:59, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
I vote against any such a motion until there is a North American press release. Starks 17:27, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
I have to agree with Starks on this one, since it's still unsure that this series is going to move into the US as of yet. Just keep it what it is until Cartoon Network announces or someone sees a commercial of the series being put on american television, all that aside, I would love to see how they're going to relate the original series to this new series...Gamloverks 16:27, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
According to this report, the logo in English has been reveald at the Tokyo International Anime Fair 2007. I can concider that the Powerpuff Girls Z is the official English title.--JSH-alive talk to mesee my worksmail to me 09:49, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Even still, unless you really want a straw poll for moving, we should wait for a press release. Starks 19:43, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
I third this. We still have no clue if its coming stateside. Violent-kun 21:04, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
English Episode Titles
I know the show has no English counterpart as of yet, but the Collector's Edition DVDs (I'm not sure if the regular ones also have this) have the episode titles in English in their menus. Although they are not the literal translations that are up on the page at this point, the choice of words is still spot on (in some cases better). For example, episode 2 here is translated as "Gentle Bubbles," but the DVD has it as "Bubbly Bubbles." Although they are not the same words, they pretty much describe the same thing (just think about how the Professor used the same word at the beginning of "The Powerpuff Girls Movie"). Anyway, what I'm trying to get at is should we just replace the translations to that given in the DVDs until if comes to the U.S. (if it ever does) or should we leave them as they are or place them in a separate column? I'm going to go ahead and change the titles now, but if you feel that we should discuss this, I'll be glad to revert it back to how they were until we reach a consensus. Umandsf 19:20, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
Actually, as a follow-up to this, I don't know if it is practical enough, but maybe someone should add another column to the episode list (not sure how to do that and don't have time to find out). That way, we can have the direct translation and the English titles of the DVD. Umandsf 01:29, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
Trivia addition
You know, I just thought of something while reading the article on The Powerpuff Girls. When Buttercup transforms for the first time, she says that "she hasn't worn a skirt since kindergarten". Perhaps this could be a reference/in-joke to the original series, where they all wear skirts and are in kindergarten? I think so. --Ihmhi 12:31, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
No, not really. That's just a coincidence. Besides, there were more like dresses rather than skirts. Umandsf 13:31, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
WHAT???
--75.45.122.6 11:15, 21 May 2007 (UTC)WHAT DO YOU MEAN GETS HEAVILY EDITED?!? I thought that America would have dropped the Kids-Can't-Watch-Japanese-Culture thing by now! Why would they want to heavily edit it when it comes out as an english release?
We don't know what's going to happen when/if it brought to America. Until then, don't make assumptions about what the company believes Please remember that the discussion page is for topics concerning the article. Umandsf 00:51, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
Black Lights & White lights
The black lights "came from Him's body", and the white lights are Kennainium, which were in the chest thrown into the sea in the Edo era in Ep. 30. I have no idea how to integrate this into the article. HyperBlossom 00:16, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
Try waiting until at least episode 51, since more will be revealed about Kare and Kennainium. Umandsf 01:53, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
Related article(s)
The article Girls, Beyond Time and Space! for episode 51 exists, but is of pretty poor quality. Can it be salvaged, or just be deleted? --213.120.114.7 10:18, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
Wow, that is poor. I suggest removal. Umandsf 03:36, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
Missing Character Pages
I just checked through the entire page, and it doesn't look like this has been brought up at all, so here goes. Why, in place of the old character pages for the girls, is there a link to the character page for the OPPG when that page makes no references to the personalities of their PPGZ counterparts? Why were the character descriptions removed in the first place? I checked the recent edits and I didn't see anything there, either, though I could easily have missed it, so what's the deal here? There's currently virtually no information on the titular characters, which strikes me as extremely ironic. It seems new, individual pages were proposed, but trying to go to any of them redirects to the main article for PPGZ, which again has no information on them. Someone please explain to me what's going on. 75.131.212.204 22:00, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
- I find it stupid myself. Originally, someone decided that information about the original Powerpuff Girls and the Powerpuff Girls Z should be on one page, and I thought it was really stupid. Apparently, the one who deleted the information thought it was too and deleted it, except the only thing is that the person forgot to put it back on the original PPGZ article. Ugh...I'd better write it back up...67.84.253.44 23:21, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
Is Momoko (Blossom) the main character?
It may just be me but it seems as though Blossom gets more spotlight time then the others and seems to be one of those typical main characters in anime; immature yet serious like Usagi from Sailor Moon or Naruto. Is she? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.110.71.166 (talk) 04:32, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
Well, of course. Even though she wishes to be a distinct leader, she never gets it, but she is taken to be the "main character." Umandsf 14:37, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
Girlz
Given every official English episode titles uses "Girlz," should we move this page to "Demashita! Powerpuff Girlz Z"?—Loveはドコ? (talk • contribs) 18:11, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
- No way. We don't know what Cartoon Network plans to do stuff with. We've already got a page, and it's fine where it is. Gamloverks (talk) 17:28, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
Archive
This is all old stuff now, time to archive it. I really do not know how so if someone could manage to do so, it'd be much appreciated. Gamloverks (talk) 00:53, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
English translation differences
Why exactly was it removed? It didn't look unprofessional to me. Besides, an official dub was already released, and there are a ton of differences. I feel it would be good to the viewers of the article to put the section back. 210.4.127.240 (talk) 14:34, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
- Then, why don't you see how the Naruto article deals with it?--JSH-alive (talk)(cntrbtns)(mail me) 04:27, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
I don't get it either. Why was it removed? It was a good section. 58.71.41.2 (talk) 00:58, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
OK. See WP:EMBED and WP:PACL. --JSH-alive (talk)(cntrbtns)(mail me) 05:01, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
English Episodes?
The first episode from Cartoon Network in the Philippines has the episode as "Powerpuff Girls to the Rescue" (Found on Youtube). It sounded like the person who played the Dog in Johnny Test, is now playing a role as the Professor. Anyways, there is a reference at the end of it, where as in the japanese they talked about how they were created, but instead you hear the voice actor for buttercup say, "And it's not even bedtime!" I couldn't hear any thing that would key me off for any of the girls' voices, or Mojo's for that matter. Or the Mayor's or Bellum's. I'll continue to look into who is playing who. Of course the japanese names were dropped, The original names were kept. Blossom, Bubbles, Buttercup. (Whether they actually have their own names remains to be seen.) Ken refers to Utonium as his father calling him Dad. Peach changed to Poochie. Opening and Ending Songs dropped from Japanese. And they mashed up the entrances with different scenes for the Title Sequence. As it looked the entrance sounded like something from the 90s, but this is my opinion of course. As I watched, the English dub disappointed me, the Japanese one sounded much better. Gamloverks (talk) 20:32, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

Still On the Way
Even with the destruction of Toonami, it was mentioned in the ANN article that PPG Z, the english version was still on it's way. Should this be mentioned? 140.182.147.222 (talk) 18:13, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
Unsourced material
The following is unsourced information:
- Until the premiere, voice actor Ryusei Nakao was thought to be the narrator, but he was just narrating the promo. However, he would later receive the role of Him (Kare).
- In the original promo for Powerpuff Girls Z, the girls appeared to be older with slightly different outfits. Also, Ken Kitazawa was supposedly the Professor for the series; he is about the same height as his current incarnation, but wore glasses and had a completely different appearance. In the current incarnation, the girls became younger and Ken Kitazawa became Professor Utonium's son instead. It should be noted that Peach was visibly absent in the first incarnation and that the girls used their weapons to initiate the transformation instead. There were also smaller versions of the girls, who looked similar to both the Powerpuff GIrls Z and the original Powerpuff Girls. It is unknown whether or not they'll be in the current incarnation, but they still appear in the episode titles.
- Pre-production art found in the OST reveal that the Powerpuff Girls were going to be more articulated versions of their American counterparts, most noticeable a version of the original design with fingers. Over the course of pre-production, the girls went under several design changed before setting on the final design that appears in the show. They even had a different set of weapons at one point in their design (Bubbles is seen with a jump rope, Buttercup with a pair of clubs, and Blossom with hula hoops). Of the three, Blossom had the least amount of change. Buttercup, on the other hand, had massive changes between design stages before arriving at her tomboy design. The only design problem with Bubbles was figuring out how to draw her ponytails.
- Since the anime was first revealed around April 1 at the Tokyo International Anime Fair 2005, it was believed by many to be an April Fool's joke which started at the animation news web site Toon Zone.
- Bubbles' ponytails change throughout the series. This is due to the difficulty of drawing her ponytails.
While this is interesting, we can't use it unless you provide a source. Also, none of this is really trivia, as trivia by its definition is "unimportant information" - it therefore shouldn't be in a trivia section but instead the information should be incorporated into the main article. - Tbsdy lives (formerly Ta bu shi da yu) talk 07:45, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
- Ryusei Nakao was credited on Aniplex's site to doing the Narrator's voice. It wasn't until after the series began airing, this was no longer case. (Because infact the episodes themselves contain no narration). Not sure if that is still listed on the site, but I'll double check. The OST information came from the actual OST and I do have scanned images of that. However, that itself would possibly be a copyright violation so I'd probably not want to link to that. Probably would be best if I sourced the actual booklet and page numbers, but I wouldn't know how to go and doing so.
- The whole April Fools thing comes from a big thread that was located on the Toon Zone forum, which is where most people discovered the said information. Most of the reaction was overall thinking "it's a doujin" or "it's an april fools", because we didn't see this until April 1st, even though information surfaced as far back a couple days at Tokyo Anime Fair 2005. (Actually, there was some talk as early as the year before, but no one was quite sure what Turner's registering of PPGZ domain meant...)
- Anyways, I'll go gather some links regarding everything and hopefully can respond back soon in a day or so. Most of that should stay since it's information that would be otherwise hard to know, although the "Toon Zone" note should be rewritten. Mendinso (talk) 08:46, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
Original research?
The following looks to me like original research:
- Momoko, Miyako, and Kaoru gained super powers from an accident involving Ken. Originally in The Powerpuff Girls, there was an experiment to create the "perfect little girl" with "sugar, spice, and everything nice". Chemical X was accidentally added to the mix, which is what gave the girls their superpowers. It could be argued that the daifuku that fell into the Chemical X and caused the change to Chemical Z is the "sugar and spice and everything nice" that created the Powerpuff Girls Z.
Is there an external source that argues this? - Tbsdy lives (formerly Ta bu shi da yu) talk 07:48, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
The first PPGZ episode, if I recall correctly. 201.127.20.63 (talk) 05:18, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
There is no mention in the dub of an attempt to create "perfect little girls" and this would be out of character for this version of the Prof. Hcobb (talk) 13:48, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
Mojo
I adjusted the part about Mojo a bit. It used to say that he remained visually unchanged, but this is not true. There are some clear differences, like the costume and the hair on the cheeks (or whatever that's supposed to be) which isn't there in the original show.
piracy!
it is definitely piracy!
- Care to explain that?
It's not since it's licensed, and both Cartoon Network and Craig McCracken are credited in the show's opening and ending sequences. ChaosAngelZero 22 July 2006
Stubbyness?
The article; while not extremely short; seems short enough to be considered a stub...
Find better links
Someone find a better webpage for screenshots. The current one now has nothing but broken images.
Nevermind, it's gotten fixed.
Talking Dog.
I changed the part about the talking dog. This is NOT the same character AT ALL.
"Demashita!" or "Demashitaa!"?
Well, just that, technically speaking the latter is the right one (出ましたっ!), it seems.
Should it be corrected or not? ChaosAngelZero
Either one works. There's no real way to type out the small tsu at the end, though most are going by Demashitaa!, atleast from what I can tell. - Mendinso
I'm Japanese. For me, "demashitaa" looks weird, because a "っ" at the end of a word doesn't prolong the vowel. Rather, it shortens and accents the vowel. "出ましたあ!", "出ましたぁ!", "出ましたー!" and "出ました~!" would be "demashitaa!" in Rōma-ji, but that's not for "出ましたっ!".
So I think just "demashita" is appropreate, but If the "っ" should be preserved in Rōma-ji, "demashitat" or "demashitatt" might be okay.
Peach's Has No Ability to Increase Strength
I took out the line that said that Peach is able to initiate a program that powered up Buttercup in episode 11. That is incorrect. What happened was that Peach was forced by Ken and Utonium to contact Buttercup and say that 'her skirt looked cute on her'. Her anger was triggered and she broke herself out of the ice enraged. Peach was reluctant to do it, because Peach knew Buttercup would get angry at them.
Episode Guide/List?
Is it possible to compose an episode guide/list soon? If anyone wants titles for the eps, you'll have to check ANN or somewhere.
Images lack alignment...
Look at the "Yet To Make an Appearance" section.
Just to let people know...
Those wondering about the episode titles being off, this is due to the episode titles we get are tentative. These come from either episode scripts, storyboards, or un-named sources. So just keep in mind, the episode titles posted aren't fake, just tentative. - Mendinso
Balloon Neba-Neba vs Bubble Neba-Neba
The official aniplex site lists the attack as "バブル・ねばねば(Balloon Neba-Neba)" I can only assume the translating of バブル (Baburu) to Balloon was a mixup with Balloon Catcher and it should have been Bubble. One thing is for sure the attack is バブル・ねばねば, this is what Bubbles says. So I changed it from Balloon Neba-Neba to Bubble Neba-Neba.
Takaki or Takaaki.
I changed it to Takaaki. The name is pronounced as written, so it should be Takaaki. If anyone feels the need to change it back, please post why here. - Mendinso
- Well, the earlier discussion about whether it should be Demashita or Demashitaa ended with the former replacing the latter. Same with how Mojo Jojo shouldn't be placed Mojyo Jyojyo. So instead of Takaaki, it should be Takaki. The japanese pronounciation will stay though.
- Mojo Jojo's name was revealed as Mojo Jojo on one of the character cards. (Though you have to freeze a card frame to see it.) Takaaki's name should be written as Takaaki, considering the a is pronounced seperatly from Takaaki. If it was "Takaki", the a wouldn't be pronounced seperately. If it was written as, let's say タカーキ, then is could be written as Takaki. Here, the a sound is extented. But because the name is written as タカアキ, it should be spelled as Takaaki. The a is pronounced seperately here. I'm changing it back. - Mendinso
- Ah I see. That makes sense.
Canadian release?
i'm kinda wondering, will this be released on YTV or teletoon, or will it stay in the US and Japan?
Rowdyruff Boys episode
They did not appear yet. They were only confirmed to appear in episode 20. The series is only up to episode 20 this week. Also, if you're gonna announce that, try to make sure it doesn't show up on the article.
Him
I sow the Him's episode today and I add the villain's desribtion.
Changed Rowdyruff and Him Pictures
I understand the last Rowdyruff pic did not show Butch's face, but it's harder to see any of their faces in the pic you posted. I changed so all their faces are shown, but visually, the first one looked a lot better.
Similarly, I'm going to change the screen so that Him's face is more clearer.
Second episode list and Chakichaki Musume
First, whoever moved the Chakichaki Musume summary, thank you. I didn't know whether I should've placed it in another section or simply put them under Powerpuff Girls Z. Either way thanks.
As for the second episode list, it's still up there, but it's just not visible. I don't think that using such a table would work since there are 30 episodes and 22 more are slated to be released, making the list too big unless it has it's own article.
Worldwide release
The article confuses me a little bit, because it says that CN has stated to air the show worldwide, but a few lines later it says that it isn't clear if it will be aired in the US 93.222.205.228 (talk) 20:23, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
Cartoon Network
Cartoon Network is listed on the first page of the official site, so I don't see why they should be excluded.
