Release
Dates are in order of release:


 * United States: April 21, 2016 on Cartoon Network

Behind the scenes

 * The flashback is drawn in the style of the original 90s series.

Errors

 * This is not the pilot episode, yet it explains how the Powerpuff Girls began attending Midway Elementary without doing it as a flashback (not including the aforementioned flashback that showed why).
 * Pokey Oaks had been destroyed in the original series episode "Paste Makes Waste," but the school was just rebuilt afterward. Also, in The Powerpuff Girls Movie, the girls actually attended Pokey Oaks while it was being repaired after they accidentally tore half it to pieces during a game of tag.
 * Mojo talks to his mother as if she is anthropomorphic like him, yet even in this continuity, as shown in "You're a Good Man, Mojo Jojo," he was born a regular monkey.
