Brave the overpowering cuteness in this glimpse of the ‘Teen Titans’ and ‘Powerpuff Girls’ crossover
Forget “Batman v Superman” and Team Captain America vs Team Iron Man. Cartoon Network is hosting a (super-cute) superhero crossover event of its own in an upcoming episode of “Teen Titans Go!” Can you handle the overwhelming sweetness of not three, but six characters with adorable tiny fists of fury?
The Powerpuff Girls will be making their way to Jump City looking to stop Mojo Jojo in the crossover episode titled “TTG v PPG,” and Hero Complex has the exclusive first look at the meeting of the two super-teams.
“Who are the odd, floating, color-coordinated children?” asks Starfire when Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup suddenly appear in Titans Tower. Of course, Starfire and Raven are also floating during this exchange, so the only odd one out in the scene is Robin.
When Blossom explains that they’ve traveled from another dimension looking for the “dangerous villain Mojo Jojo,” the Titans jump at the chance to help the girls. Help the girls find their parents, that is.
The Powerpuff Girls are not at all happy about being treated like babies, but the Titans, like many others, can’t help but be deceived by the girls’ cuteness.
In addition to the onscreen antics, fans of both “Teen Titans” and the original “Powerpuff Girls” can find some humor in the fact that Raven, voiced by actress Tara Strong, shares an exchange with Bubbles. Strong provided the voice for the blond pigtailed hero in the original series (actress Kristen Li voices the current incarnation of Bubbles). See the full clip above.
The episode is set to air June 30 at 6 p.m.
The new “Teen Titans Go!” is not the only special episode slated for June 30. At 7:30 p.m. a half-hour-long “Regular Show” episode will see Rigby finally graduate from high school.
In “Rigby’s Graduation,” Rigby is scheduled to make a speech at the ceremony that will be broadcast live on a TV show called “Inspire America.” Rigby understandably wants to make his speech and the day memorable, but if the clip is anything to go by, it will be memorable in unintended ways.
Check out the exclusive first look clip of “Rigby’s Graduation,” below.
