Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup are adding a new member to the PowerPuff Girls. Say hello to Blisstina (“Bliss” for short), the girls’ long-lost older sister, a shiny blue-haired and purple dress wearing black girl. Of course, die-hard fans offered mixed reactions to the recent news of a fourth girl joining the iconic trio.

Created by Professor Utonium (who was never the best dad) with an earlier version of his combo of sugar, spice, and everything nice, Bliss is a little emotionally unstable and has an explosive new power. Different voice actresses from around the world, including South African singer Toya Delazy and purple-haired Youtuber Wendy Ayche, will be voicing the character in the five-part movie event, The Powerpuff Girls: The Power of Four.
Of course, the Internet reacted:

"If the Powerpuff Girls were made out of sugar, spice, and everything nice, maybe Professor Utonium used brown sugar on Bliss."

“TAKE THAT racists!” lol. Careful there PC peeps, you don’t wanna go assuming it’s gender do you now? Bigots
Well done!
I love it! Cannot wait to see Bliss in action!
Hey Trumpanzees… don’t pull another neo-Nazi protest like Virginia over this … it’s just a animation lmao
Because Berkley was so much better….. Who gives a crap about what color a powerpuff girl is.. It’s sugar, spice and everything nice.
Brown sugar.
And Shes South African
Her character is unnecessary and is most likely used to sell crappy toys.
A children’s cartoon that focuses on sellign toys? That’s just crazy.
That’s pretty cool
Noooobody cares.
