Wouldn't this be like any other 4-koma-based anime out there? There've been a number of those. ^_^; |

Uh.....for being a supposed anime fan, you sure have some sterotypical ideas about anime. Have you never heard of "Slice of Life?" |

Do they even eat lasagna in Japan? Just kidding, but I can't imagine Garfield being turned into a manga/anime. |

To Chagen46,
In response to your earlier post,I may not have heard of the anime you're talking about but there have been anime that have not been stereotypical. "Kaleido Star" is one of them. I'm just surprised that the Japanese are going to do a "Peanuts" anime,that's all. |

"Slice of life" is a genre, not an anime. A slice of life series is about ordinary people going about their ordinary lives, like Azumanga Daioh, which was also adapted out of 4-koma, the Japanese equivalent of the funny papers. Not to mention that much of the most popular anime of all time are comedies, such as Doraemon and, to a certain extent, One Piece.
On another note, I decided to look into Happiness Is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown on IMDb and saw that it has a 7.1 out of 10. This is equal to Bon Voyage, Charlie Brown and one point above than Race for Your Life, Charlie Brown, my two favorite Peanuts productions. So I think I'll pick up the DVD for that later on.
That, and American football is actually quite popular in Japan. Anyone in Japan will know what's going on when Lucy's holding the football down with her finger and Charlie Brown running towards it to kick it. |

Aside from Snoopy, I'm sure the Peanuts strips had animated specials had been popular favorites in Japan for years (I recall once watching a TV special that played a clip of a Japanese dubbed version of "Charlie Brown's All-Stars" back in the 80's). |
