The Powerpuff Ladies have by no means appeared higher because of the Ok-pop group NewJeans.
The globally profitable and breakout woman group launched a music video titled “New Denims.” In it, the members of the group rework into animated character variations of themselves designed to appear to be The Powerpuff Ladies. Over the course of the video, we see the woman group imagined as Powerpuff Ladies that rework from 2D animated characters to pixelated characters match for a online game. The video is an absolute pleasure because it pairs straightforward pop listening with an aesthetic that celebrates the colourful pleasure of ’90s animation and the early console period of video video games.
NewJeans consists of 5 ladies: Minji, Hanni, Danielle, Haerin, and Hyein. NewJeans was created by ADOR, the label underneath Hybe, and debuted in July 2022 with the only “Consideration.” The group has had a restricted variety of releases since their debut — NewJeans has launched a single EP and a handful of tracks — however that hasn’t stopped their rise to grow to be probably the most outstanding Ok-pop teams on this planet. Based on Billboard, the group was the quickest Ok-pop group to hit 1 billion streams on Spotify in underneath 219 days.
Now, followers have been anxiously awaiting the discharge of their second EP, Get Up. On June 18, the group launched a 17-second teaser of a monitor from the EP and the quick Powerpuff Woman visible and audio sparked a whole lot of hundreds of followers to put up about it on-line. One fan created a filter known as “powerpuff me” the place followers may make their Powerpuff Woman personas and it was used over 628 hundred thousand occasions on the time of publication.
The video aligns with bigger developments that present the resurgence of Y2K media and style. The music video offers cozy “hanging out with the girlies” vibes and pairs it with quite a lot of nostalgic digital aesthetics. Over the course of some minutes, we see the ladies as cartoon characters after which tackle kinds impressed by video video games like nostalgic pixelated characters and angular polygonal 3D graphics paying homage to early PlayStation video games.
The music video simply leaves me with one necessary query: When will we lastly get a NewJeans online game?
