Nope, your eyes aren't deceiving you. There IS an
anime version of the Powerpuff Girls. In this
anime-style
re-imagining of the series, instead of Townsville, Z takes place in Tokyo City. When Professor Utonium and his son accidently create the substance Chemical Z (created when a Rice Cake falls into a vat of Chemical X), his son shoots it as a beam when a giant glacier threatens the city.
Shooting out into different white and
black beams of light, it hits three regular girls, Momoko, Miyako, and Kaoru, giving them all superpowers and the ability to transform into the Powerpuff Girls! However, out of the light of Chemical Z, new super-villains are created, such as the mad
monkey Mojo
Jojo and many other strange foes.
With a new set of problems ahead for Tokyo City, will these new Powerpuff Girls be the cure?
