Z-Squad is a South Korean-Canadian Magical Girl All-CGI Cartoon of the Magical Girl Warrior type co-produced by Enemes and Nelvana.Chaney, Haemi and Jeanie are known in the school for being three of the most powerful athletes, but suddenly the Drop Dead Gorgeous Three (DDG3), a group of three popular guys beat them in a Volleyball match, and endangers their reputation. In hopes of winning back their title, the girls get a hidden Spell Book from Jeanie's library and try casting a spell to give them the greatest power in the universe, but it won't activate until they sign a contract. Bad idea! In another dimension named Z-Nation, a planet known as Planet Z is under attack by Bakoo and his forces, who want the Megabelt to conquer the universe. The only one who could stop him is Aramis, who had the power of the Power Crystals, but thanks to the contract the girls signed, the crystals have scattered all over Earth, and Aramis fell into a coma. Now the girls have to transform into the Z-Squad, defeat all the zoots and collect all the crystals before Bakoo does.The show aired on various South Korean channels, most notably SBS. The English dub (produced by Nelvana) has aired on Pop Girl in the United Kingdom and KidsCo around many parts of the world, and is currently streaming on Tubi TV and Amazon Prime Video.

Alternative Foreign Theme Song

comment
Alternative Foreign Theme Song: The English dub's very 2000's pop song-sounding theme is very different from the original Korean theme, which sounds more action scene-ish.

New Powers as the Plot Demands: The purpose of the color crystals; when Zora, Zeph and Zuma call for them the girl they're partnered with gets a weapon that can help them with sealing the zoot they're against. Only 1 crystal per magical girl, though.
