''Demashita! Powerpuff Girls Z'' ("And away they go! Powerpuff Girls Z") is a Japanese [[Anime]] adaptation of the American cartoon ''[[The Powerpuff Girls]]''. It turns Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup into [[Magical Girl Warrior|Magical Girl Warriors]], complete with elaborate [[Transformation Sequence|transformation sequences]] that hover somewhere between homage to and parody of [[Magical Girl|the genre]]. Originally announced on April 1, 2005, which led many fans to believe it was an April Fool's joke, but the show premièred for real on July 1, 2006.
 
The storyline indicates that this is ''very'' much an [[Alternate Continuity]] from the American version, starting right from the girls' origin: Professor Utonium's son Ken is conductinguses a weather-changing experiment using "Chemical Z" beam to destroy an iceberg that has mysteriously appeared in Tokyo City (as opposed to the original's "Chemical X"), causing an accident that grants superpowers to three unrelated thirteen-year-old girls -- Momoko Akatsutsumi (codenamed "Hyper Blossom" in her powered form), Miyako Goutokuji ("Rolling Bubbles"), and Kaoru Matsubara ("Powered Buttercup").
 
Many of the original ''[[Powerpuff Girls]]'' [[Rogues Gallery]] make a re-appearance here, although Mojo Jojo is now a normal monkey turned [[Mad Scientist]] by Chemical Z, bent on seeking revenge against humanity which mistreated him. Instead of translating the convoluted speech pattern the original character used into a nigh-incomprehensible Japanese version, he has a [[Verbal Tic]] and ends every sentence with "Mojo".
