Buttercup Utonium is one of the three main protagonists of The Powerpuff Girls. She is known for being the most aggressive of the team. PersonalityLike the other girls, not much has changed about her personality. Among the Powerpuff Girls, Buttercup is a happy-go-lucky tomboy and the most aggressive like her original 1998 series counterpart, usually having an angrier disposition in comparison to Bubbles and Blossom. However, she happens to be somewhat of a troublemaker. Like her original counterpart, she appears to enjoy fighting villains and criminals and despise girly things like skirts and scrapbooking. Buttercup would rather hang out with The Derbytantes, a punk culture gang of roller skaters. She really enjoys playing death ball with them and is considered a very good friend to them. In particular, Buttercup hates being called "princess", as she will fly into an annoyed rage at the villains who call her as such. Her new voice has also been used to exaggerate her tomboyish nature. Also through new facial expressions, her anger is simply seen. A skull and crossbones and/or fire will appear in her eyes when she is angry or has an evil grin on her face. However, she is seen to be more sarcastic in this series. She is also sassy. She can be quite rude and standoffish, and sometimes beats up others with little provocation. As shown later on in the 2016 reboot series, Buttercup is shown to be slightly good at programming as demonstrated in the episode Oh, Daisy! when she reprogrammed Daisy with ease. Bubbles also comments on this towards the end of the episode, claiming that programming takes a lot of skill. This episode also reveals that she is pretty laidback and a slight rule-breaker. AppearanceLike her original counterpart, Buttercup has short black hair in a flip with a small triangular part on her forehead; her design slightly differs in that her hair also has a slight cowlick, which adds to her character and personality. She has lime green eyes, and she wears a lime green dress with a black horizontal stripe in the middle, white tights, and black Mary Janes.In the episode "Trouble Clef" when she, Bubbles, and Blossom are at Morebucks' concert, Buttercup's hair is styled like her Powerpunk counterpart Brute. She wears a maroon colored top covered by a purple vest and red jeans and purple boots. In the episodes "Man Up 2: Still Man-ing" and "Summer Bummer", she is shown in swimwear on those occasions. In Summer Bummer, Buttercup is shown with a green swimsuit and green and light blue board shorts. In Man Up 2: Still Man-ing, she is shown with the same green swimsuit but with blue outlines and moss green board shorts. In "The Fog", Buttercup is posing as a villain named "The Fog". She looks like a regular cloud. He has yellow eyes with red pupils and he has a blue tongue. If he's evil he will become bigger and gray. Likes & DislikesLikes
