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

Professor Utonium  Professor Utonium has a son named Ken Kitazawa, who is responsible for all those affected by the Chemical Z lights, especially the Powerpuff Girls Z. Professor Utonium was originally experimenting with the substance Chemical X and strove to find a way to change its chemical properties. Professor Utonium has created several inventions throughout the series; the most important one being his Chemical Z Particle Ray, which allows him to transform those affected by the lights back to normal. He seems to be aware of the effect Ken's lack of a mother has had on his son, assuming that it had caused him to be a bully to the girls. However, this does not change his behavior towards Ken. He appears to be a gentle father figure. He treats the girls like members of his family and is very close to the Mayor and Miss Bellum. While he is very gentle and serious, Professor Utonium may, at times, act a little less mature than he usually does. Ken Kitazawa  Professor Utonium's

Mojo Jojo  An ordinary zoo monkey who was made fun of by people and decided to seek revenge on humanity after the ray from Chemical Z made him intelligent. He is physically more powerful than the original version of the character, able to fly and lay a dozen punches at one time. This version of Mojo frequently displays an immature attitude and makes the most childish flaws throughout his plans. While the original Mojo was portrayed as one of the most competent and genuinely threatening villains in the series, the anime version is more of a rather inept comic relief and is seen by the Powerpuff Girls Z as more of an annoying nuisance than a dangerous enemy. The anime Mojo also does not repeat himself redundantly as the original Mojo does, he ends most of his sentences with saying his name. He is the same size as the original, as the giant cape conceals his small figure. Him  Him is the most powerful enemy of the series, and it is safe to say that he is the main antagonist. Him is a demo

Mojo Jojo  Mojo Jojo is a mad scientist anthropomorphic chimpanzee with great intelligence. As the main antagonist of the series and the Powerpuff Girls' archenemy, Mojo Jojo was Professor Utonium's reckless laboratory chimpanzee, Jojo, before Professor Utonium created the Powerpuff Girls. The same accident that created the Girls gave Jojo his super-intelligence. He has green skin, pink scleras, and wears a white glass dome-shaped helmet that covers his oversized, protruding brain. He wears white gloves and boots, a blue suit with a white belt, and a flowing purple cape. Despite his high intelligence, his plans often contain flaws that he overlooks, and he rarely has much success against the Girls, as their superpowers are too much for his inventions. However, he is a master at manipulation and trickery, often fooling the Girls into thinking he has changed despite their constant encounters. Mojo lives in an observatory atop a dormant volcano located in the middle of Townsville&

A stereotypical scientist, his general attire is a white lab coat and black pants. The Professor once housed a chimpanzee named Jojo as a lab assistant who proved to be reckless and destructive.
