Drend 04-12-2008 08:58 PM

No, but there is a Japanese dub of it.

Hiroki 04-12-2008 09:03 PM

No it isn't anime, it's American tv show.

It is created in the style of japanese cartoon art but it isn't anime.

And there isn't a japanese look a like version of 'The Boondocks'.

From Wikipedia:

Like the comic strip, the show is influenced by McGruder's love of anime.[4] He cites Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo as sources of inspiration for fight scenes.[5] The second season features segments animated by Japanese animation studio Madhouse.[6]

uhu the creator of カウボーイビバップ and of サムライチャンプルー is Shinichirō Watanabe (渡辺 信一郎)

Like I said, it's made like Japanese way of animation but you cannot classified it as 'anime'.

You see those numbers in the paragraph? They're citations. The citations link to interviews with the show's creator. That's how Wikipedia works. Just because your teacher said Wikipedia is an unreliable source doesn't mean everything on there is opinion or false.

I never said it was. I just thought it was worth pointing out the strong influence anime has on the show.

Here's a Japanese dubbed episode of it, if anyone cares to watch xD
