-[Original description]-

25 years of dooming the world before bedtime, 25 years of super powered little boys fighting 3 girls of their own kind, 25 years of opposing justice, 25 years of being the most popular villains of the Powerpuff Girls who were mistreated by their own handlers (not Craig McCracken) who were characterfully downgraded into complete idiots that entrenched the negative & offensive sexist stereotype during the downfall of the original series, whose Japanese anime spinoffs were a lot worse in comparison, and were also in the horrible 2016 reboot as a pointless non-speaking cameo (that may have been a blessing in disguise)...!


... here's hoping that the new upcoming reboot by Craig McCracken will treat them much better, if not give them their happy ending they've long since deserved!

The Rowdyruff Boys made their grand debut 25 years ago, in April 7, 1999. So here's to their 25th year!


The girls had their 25 anniversary so it would be fair for the boys to have THEIR share as well. Fair is fair...!

i like how u styled them in the original style. but i do prefer the rework version more

Escarietson responds:

I was a mixed bag with their rework designs, personally speaking. Boomer's new hair worked while Butch's didn't, Brick would have worked better if they kept his original Blossom-style bangs visible while giving him a low ponytail. Plus their OG styles are constantly being ignored these days (as if people are deliberately trying to forsaken it / reject history), and I think they look more naturally cuter this way.

It wouldn't make a lot of sense for me to use their newer styles for their 25th anniversary since their newer styles just didn't exist at the time...
