This is fantastic! I really hope that it's Brotherhood, although I'll be perfectly happy with anything else.

Yay for new anime! Very Happy

Shugo chara I think could be a huge hit for Disney, because it targets young girls who are trying to figure out who they are, and what they want to be, I don't think there are that many young girls watching [as] at that time of night....

Except for one thing: Nadeshico.

Can't cut her out, can't change her backstory without destroying her entire character (nor would Peach Pitt allow it, I'm pretty sure), and because of it the show will never air on US television.

there would be no reason to cut that out, spoiler[just because he dresses as a woman, because of a family tradition and dances is not so big of a shock, I could see it being an issue if he liked doing it, but you find out that he really hates doing it, but because it is a family tradition he has to do it. and if the character was actually gay, then I could see Disney not showing it, but as it stands I think it would fit in there, or if cartoon network wanted to compete with Disney more in the female genre then it would fit better there, ] plus they only have to use the first 100 episodes, the new shugo chara party is crap, I feel the show properly ended at the end of shugo chara doki doki

I dont normally use the spoiler tag but I thought I should in case some have not seen the show....

You know, rumors are going around that the show in question is NOT an anime, but rather another anime parody ala Perfect Hair Forever.

Imagine if that were true.

Note: The show's listed title and id are not new, but that's likely just because they're too lazy to create a new entry for Brotherhood. They also haven't cared to enter episode titles yet.

Well I guess we can all stop speculating now, the no episode title gives it away. I had no idea they had even dubbed the show already, sure was fast.

I dunno, I'm still not sold. I remember when we were supposed to get a new show once, in November, and we ended up getting "Perfect Hair Forever."

Give me a formal announcement and I'll cheer, but I can't shake the feeling this is a massive trolling.
