Reasons Why the Original Powerpuff Girls is Better Than the Reboot Powerpuff Girls

The Top Ten
The original did not depend on outdated memes and lame jokes

I don't know what the commenter who said the show is trying to grab the attention of younger audiences is talking about. I'm a kid, and I don't think the show is funny - it's extremely cringy. I much prefer the original, which was already great. And I'm not the only one who thinks so.

The original was hilarious, with jokes like "I was an accident too." In the reboot, it's just a bunch of outdated memes like "No Me Gusta," which isn't even funny. The reboot is not funny at all.

Yeah, there was an episode where we saw a big fat panda who looked like he was on drugs tweaking. What's worse is that Blossom and Bubbles did it too.

The original had better voice actors

I loved Cathy Cavadini, Elizabeth Daily, and Tara Strong as the voices of Blossom, Buttercup, and Bubbles. Why did Cartoon Network not ask the original voice actors? They actually wanted to come back and do the voices. Now we have Amanda Leighton, Kristen Li, and Natalie Palamedes as the voices of Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup. They do not voice the girls as well.

Why would they replace Tara Strong with some random Asian girl? This new actress just doesn't give Bubbles' voice the same charm that Tara did.

The original did not try hard to be hip and cool
The original had better animation

The stylish vintage backgrounds looked great and stood out compared to those of other cartoons. The characters themselves were simple but appealing. Action scenes were full of striking poses and violence. In contrast, the reboot is full of really boring backgrounds and characters, with a few unnecessary details added, which don't make up for the incompetent art and bland animation. The old show looks so much cooler and more entertaining by comparison.

The original had thick lines that went well with the bright colors. There weren't as many animation errors, only a few. But in the reboot, in almost every episode, I always see an animation error.

The original had better villains

They're all boring and annoying. I wish Mojo Jojo never appeared in The Powerpuff Girls because of his appearance. I wish Him never appeared in The Powerpuff Girls because of his appearance. I wish Sedusa never appeared in The Powerpuff Girls because of her appearance. I wish Princess Morbucks never appeared in The Powerpuff Girls because of her appearance. I wish the Amoeba Boys never appeared in The Powerpuff Girls because of their appearances. I wish Fuzzy Lumpkins never appeared in The Powerpuff Girls because of his appearance. I wish the Gangreen Gang never appeared in The Powerpuff Girls because of their appearances.

The original had more action and the girls fight

All the girls do in the reboot is go to school, talk about phones, or go on weird adventures. That's it - no crimefighting.

The original had a better storyline

Hey, at least it HAS a storyline. TTG is inconsistent and silly when it comes to that. We get shown more of the vulnerable sides of the common villains and why they became them. Let's take Morbucks, for example. She's a brat, but she wants friends and can get lonely. She may seem harsh, but she doesn't know how to make friends the correct way. Sometimes she just wants to be good and kind but doesn't know how. She even said in one episode, But I don't want to be a villain! If that's not character development, I don't know what is!

The girls in the original are better

The original Powerpuff Girls wanted to do something good for the people, as explained in the movie, by saving the day. Meanwhile, in the reboot, all the girls do is talk about memes and go to school.

The original was more fun to watch

In the original, I would laugh and enjoy every episode I watched. In the new one, it's just too weird, boring, and annoying.

Blossom is really selfish and uncaring in the reboot

The Newcomers

? The sisters were kinder to each other in the original
? The original didn't feel the need to add a fourth PPG for diversity points
The Contenders
Bubbles is a whiny brat over stuff

I agree with you! Bubbles is the worst in the reboot.

Agreed. She is the worst in the reboot. I hate her in the reboot.

The original had more enjoyable episodes

I'd rather watch Chris Savino's episodes than the reboot series. Even though they were mostly bland, at least Chris Savino was trying to replicate the first four seasons.

But the original had a few bad episodes.

Buttercup is a ruthless bully in the reboot
The jokes in the original were funnier
The original had a better theme song
The original focuses on the girls

They're kids trying to live a kid's life, which is very entertaining for kids and teens who have to save the world before bedtime. The show is about how the girls are coping with their superhero life and child life. Both the reboot and original show this. It might be a good reflection for all of us.

Blossom and Bubbles get fat in the reboot

In one episode, they get fat. I hate it.

The original had better staff
Jared Shapiro is in the reboot
They were much hotter in the original
Blossom wasn't as smart as she was in the reboot
