These days, many Hollywood animes or movies are made based on existing Japanese animes.

In these seriese of TV show, NHK followes two stories.

1) Astoro boy (Japanese old animation) in CG animation movie
Japanese production fight with Hollywood to keep the original character design while Hollywood tend to change it to the American market.

2) Japanese company makes new anime toward Hollywood market
A Japanese animation production try to release Amarican taste anime in US utilizing famous american actor(Sumuel Jackson) and actress(Lucy Liu).

In these movies, all narrations are in Japanese but they have many interviews in English. You can enjoy 40% of these movies without understanding Japanese language.
