New Anime Coming to Fox Kids

Kidscreen has confirmed that at least three new anime TV series are on their way to Fox Television’s Saturday morning line-up. 31 episodes of the recent Toei sci-fi “yusha” hero series Mushrambo will premier on Fox Kids sometime in 2001. Saban will be producing 21 episodes of the action/adventure Kanipan: Boy of Invention and 52 episodes of the highly successful Pokemon parody/clone Mon-Colle Knight. Both series are scheduled to premier on Fox Kids sometime next year. Lacey Entertainment, in co-operation with Canada’s Kaleidoscope Entertainment, Studio Pierrot, TBS and AD Vision, are currently marketing Power Stone, the 26 episode children’s anime television series based on the Capcom Dreamcast and arcade fighting game, for American television broadcast. AD Vision will release the series on home video in the US and Canada. Television broadcast rights have already been confirmed for Mexico and Portugal, with a television broadcast in Brazil almost a certainty.
