This is sort of an oddball little gem among the fan base, PPGZ may seem like an unofficial fan film, but it not as bad as people make it out to be. It has it's own heart to it's story telling and while it does go against some cannon it doesn't feel cheap or half bake. The Magical Girl take on the Power-Puffs is already a fun idea and the more cartoony art style is a nice addition to the show's flare, the slice of life moments are nice and over all it's an insetting spin-off. But here's how I think It can be improved. Do what they Did with Ghost Stories but with The Power-Puff Girls Z, it be funny to see them squeeze in more jokes for an american audience and make it more welcoming to viewers unfamiliar with anime tropes and themes. It would also be done by the american voice cast, oddly enough the Current English dub was done by the ocean Group it was aired only on Cartoon Network Philippians for some reason. Overall it's worth checking out if your interested. Way better than just a 5 rating.
That's it it's just really good seeing all the characters from the show in an anime form
Now, I know this is set in a different world to the original powerpuff girls which is a nice change of pace and it is accompanied with pretty good animation. But the stories make no sense and they are extremely childish. They are riddled with plot holes and other stuff. I don't mind the new designs and I do think Mojo Jojo , fuzzy lumpkins and Morbucks looks really good in this show but Him looks disgusting.
I would not watch this show, not even the good episodes. The original is way better and even the reboot is like moanna compared to this.

Powerpuff Girls Z is an anime that adapts the Powerpuff Girls cartoon into a magical girl/henshin superhero anime. In this, Professor Utonium and his son, Ken, create Chemical Z after a cake is dumped in, but when Ken hastily decides to use it to stop an abnormal snowstorm that occurs, it causes black and white Z-rays to fall in Tokyo City (called New Townsville in the English dub done by Ocean Productions). Three thirteen-year-old-girls, Momoko, Miyako, and Kaoru, are hit by the white Z-rays, giving them the power to become Hyper Blossom, Rolling Bubbles, and Powered Buttercup. However, the black Z-rays would hit other people and even animals, turning them into supervillains.
This series is an alternate universe at best (and is proven in the second-to-last episode, where the original Powerpuff Girls make a cameo as the PPGZ girls land in their world), and as a result, the characters act differently, and there are characters exclusive to this incarnation. Is this better than the Powerpuff Girls show we know and love? If it's the original from the late 1990's, then the answer is no, as the original show has its own charm that Z decides not to try and emulate. However, I can say this is better than the 2016 reboot that is seen by fans of the original as horrible. Managing to adapt the girls into a magical girl anime, Powerpuff Girls Z is worth checking out.
