It could be that everyone in the US is self-centered and thinks the world ends at the edge of North America. Or perhaps the executive producer who was quoted simply didn't know of these shows and made an honest mistake.
- wil421 5y agoNPR is National Public Radio based in the US. Not sure why they would ever report on how long a Japanese anime that isn’t broadcast in US runs.
- rd07 5y agoWell, they could also titled it "The Longest-Running Kids Animated Series In US". Naming it the longest animated series in history implied that there is no other animated series produced all around the world, which run longer than it.
- MichaelZuo 5y agoI agree, the original poster is correct as the title is factually wrong by any reasonable definition of ‘kid’ and ‘animated series’. Hopefully NPR will correct the title to make it less misleading.
