Ok, so the headline of there is a little bit misleading, I would say, but Turner does own the Japanese Entertainment Network which has announced that it is planning to do two new animated series a year for the American market. Presumably, that means anime-inspired animated series, which probably means bad. Well, unless you get a kick out of the crap that passes muster in this country. If you're wondering what sort of clout JEN is bringing to the table to get people interested in this stuff, then I'll inform you that they helped localized Dragon Ball Z for the US, and that they were the main players in adapting Powerpuff Girls for Japan. Yes, PPG-Z: Demashita or whatever it was called is thanks in large part to them, horrible character designs and all.
