Mojo Jojo
The Powerpuff Girls is an American animated franchise that takes place in the fictional city of Townsville and stars the titular Powerpuff Girls — Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup — who appear in the original TV series, the anime adaptation, the 2016 reboot series, and the upcoming second reboot series.
Secondary characters include Professor Utonium, the Powerpuff Girls' creator and father figure; The Mayor, the kindhearted, but dimwitted mayor of Townsville, who often calls upon the Powerpuff Girls for help defending Townsville; Ms. Bellum, the mayor's secretary, who serves as a voice of reason; and Ms. Keane, the Powerpuff Girls' kindergarten teacher at Pokey Oaks. Primary villains include Mojo Jojo, an intelligent, megalomaniacal ape; Fuzzy Lumpkins, a Bigfoot-like hillbilly; HIM, a demonic being; Princess Morbucks, a wealthy, spoiled girl; the Gangreen Gang, a group of green-skinned hoodlums; Sedusa, a Gorgon-like seductress; the Amoeba Boys, a trio of dimwitted amoebas, and the Rowdyruff Boys, the Powerpuff Girls' evil male counterparts.
Series creator Craig McCracken originally conceived the Powerpuff Girls while attending the California Institute of the Arts in 1991, later expanding upon the premise in a short pilot called The Whoopass Girls in Whoopass Stew. After a name change and character redesigns, a new pilot, "The Powerpuff Girls: Meat Fuzzy Lumpkins", aired on Cartoon Network's World Premiere Toons animation showcase in 1995. High viewer approval ratings convinced the network to approve a full series, which aired from 1998 to 2005.
