I wonder who's going to be the Japanese seiyuu of Princess Morebucks (assuming that's she's one of the returning villains of Neo PPG). Wink

Didn't even know they were rebooting Powerpuff Girls, I'm pretty slow. To this day, this is still my favourite moment in the show lol.

Wait is Craig McCracken even working on this reboot because if he's not then I won't even bother with it. Confused

No, he's not involved in the reboot.

I may actually watch the Japanese dub over the English. Surprised

Are you two serious? You do realize Powerpuff Girls isn't an anime, right?

Sooooo? What's it to you if they watch this in another language?

Just pondering from a curious standpoint here, but I wonder what the Japanese see in the Powerpuff Girls. I'm sure the obvious joke answer someone will give me is "well they're big-eyed, cute little girls so it makes sense". XD

To be fair, a site called Anime News Network doesn't seem to be aware of that. Wink

I am fully aware of that. Watching the Japanese dub was my initial thought, but I decided to watch the reboot in both languages. While I may prefer the original 1998 voice cast of Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup for now, I want to be open-minded with the new cast's performance. My opinion is based solely on hearing their voices through advertisements so I need to watch more to have a clear judgment before jumping to a conclusion.

JAF, I usually agree with you, but come on. Like me, you are sick and tired of English dub haters of anime. If those are legitimate (and they are) then so is this. Just saying. Razz
