Musclecup

"Musclecup" is the eleventh episode of The Powerpuff Girls season two, and the fiftieth overall. It aired on June 11, 2017 on Cartoon Network. It was written by Haley Mancini, Kyle Neswald, and Benjamin P. Carow, produced by Pernelle Hayes, directed by series creators, Nick Jennings and Bob Boyle, and voice directed by Jack Fletcher.

Feeling inadequate, Buttercup juices on Muscle Maxifier. I'm sure there's an anti-drugs message in there somewhere, hopefully.

Errors
