I think someone posted Japan Nihonized some British shows too, but I can't remember which ones and I don't think I watched them anyway,.,

Japanese Mr Bean anyone? :laugh:

Interesting...and now the "Toku Snobs" and "Anti Sentites" can rest easy...(yeah right)...:P:laugh:
 
the sides will wage war until all language and culture is obliterated by the alien overlords and replaced with superior Dalek technology, and by Dalek technology I mean NO STAIRS.
 
That being said, I'm glad they went with using Krang, Rocksteady and Bebop, even if they decided to meddle with Shredder...incredibly more than they did with the Turtles.

yoiu freaking forgot Transformers, how could you!

You know Im still surprised the Japanese have kept their mitts off of Thundercats. Oh I'll cry the day they ruin Thundercats... I dont need Lion-O to go search for the 7 sacred treasures of MooBaa before the evil Mummra and his comedic and stupid minions get their hands on it to summon Unicron.

*watches video* ... When I thought that they couldnt possibly mess up Ninja Turtles. I mean NINJA TURTLES. Cmon! That's right up Japans alley... holy shitaka. That was effing HORRIBLE. Why does everything have to be ":henshin" and "muscle pose" with those guys? I mean the old TMNT cartoon was pretty stupid. I couldnt imagine Japan messing that up at all, in fact I expected them to at least match it or beat it with ease. The villains were already goofy, you had ninjas and mutants and monsters. Robot soldiers. That's so Japan. But noooooo. ULTIMATE MUSCLE NINJA MUTANT TURTLES!! >_< HOOYAAAAAAAH!!

They made Ronin Warriors for cryin out loud. Replace them with turtles and you have TMNT! How could they mess that up. At least April looked hot, as expected. Those animators sure can make a girl bootifool.

Was that Krang in the crystal? What's the story? Shredder needs the energy of humans to free his ultimate bad guy boss Krang from the DAAKUNESSU KUURESUTAL?

Yes, I know. Being an ass to those poor japanese. But they've given us so many bad ass animes and shows but when it comes to our shows they **** it up something fierce.

Buuuut, I suppose we did the same to those poor Toku shows... Those poor... poor Toku shows. They never knew what hit em. Vengeance? Hmm

There's also "Shall We Dance". (My sister and her BF are extras in the dance club scene.) :anime:

Well this was an OVA made just for Japan. 2 episodes which have no real relation to one other, the second one does have more of a Ronin Warriors feel, especially since they go to JAPAN after destroying NY in a tidal flood.

Here's a review of both of them:
