7 Adjustment For The Powerpuff Girls Show

The Powerpuff Girls was one of the most successful shows on Cartoon Network, yet there are still some facts that not every fan will know. Here are 7 Facts you did not know about The Powerpuff Girls.

The Foreign Names
Although most people know them as Bubbles, Buttercup, and Blossom the girls have different names depending on where the show aired. In Britain and North America they were known by the names that we're familiar with, but in Latin America, the girls were called Bubble, Chocolate, and Acorn. Meanwhile in Italy, they went by Dolly, Lolly, and Molly, and in Poland they were referred to as Bójka, Bajka, and Brawurka. France also had their own names for them, as Belle, Bulle, and Rebelle were the ones to save the day. The reason for the name change is likely attributed to cultural differences.

Original Cartoon Name
Before becoming The Powerpuff Girls, the show was originally called Whoopass Stew, and instead of their magical powers coming from the mysterious Chemical X, they came from opening "a can of whoopass." Needless to say, but Cartoon Network made the creators change the name since it was not exactly kid appropriate.

The Secretary's Hidden Face
Throughout the entire series, the Mayor's secretary only showed her face once. This was a pretty big deal, considering it was the mission of every child to catch a glimpse of Ms. Bellum's face. Ms. Bellum was considered by many to be the real mayor of Townsville, seeing as she was the brains behind everything that the naive mayor did. Every time she is on screen an object just happens to be covering her face, but we get to hear her talk a lot.

The Devil
The character from the show, referred to as Him, looks exactly like the Devil. In the early days of The Powerpuff Girls he was actually named the Devil, but Cartoon Network began to receive complaints. These mainly came from concerned parents who did not think it was appropriate to have such a character on a children's show. Instead of dismissing the character, they started calling Him. This might not have been enough for some parents, but the character was well loved by audiences because of how silly he was. 

The Unique Powers
Each of the Powerpuff Girls are imbued with a unique power on top of the powers gained from Chemical X. Even though each of the girls has the ability to conjure tornadoes, teleport, and create inferno shields, they each have an ability that is unique to them. Bubbles technically has two unique powers since she is the only one of the three who can speak more than one language, but she can also cause supersonic waves with her voice. Blossom's unique power is her ability to breath ice, which is obviously very useful. Unfortunately, Buttercup is left with a less exciting power. Buttercup's unique superpower is that she is the only one able to curl her tongue, which makes her happy.

The Fourth Powerpuff Girl
Saving an entire town can be pretty exhausting for three little girls, especially when they have to do it before bedtime and finish their chores. To ease the workload, the girls decided to make a fourth Powerpuff girl to help them out. They sneak into the Professor's lab and try to make a new sister, although they do not get the ingredients exactly right. The girls end up creating Bunny, who they then send out to fight crime. Unfortunately her chemical make-up is too unstable and she explodes, leaving the girls to feel guilty about the way they treated her.

The Powerpuff Girls' Brothers
The Rowdyruff boys are basically the male version of the Powerpuff girls. They made their debut in season one as villains, and the girls defeated them by tapping into the boys' weakness: girl kisses. Of course, this plot point got creepier in later episodes when it was revealed that villainous monkey Mojo Jojo was responsible for creating both the Rowdyruff boys and the Powerpuff girls, making them technically siblings.
