this is strange:
I was on www.arthistoryclub.com reading about "Teenage mutant ninja turtles" , and found this synopsis for the 2 part OVA series from japan:
In addition to the American series, a Japan-only two episode anime OAV series was made in 1996, titled Mutant Turtles: Choujin Densetsu-hen (Superman Legend). It featured the turtles as superheroes, who gained costumes and super powers with the use of "Muta-Stones," while Shredder, Bebop, Rocksteady, and Krang gained supervillain powers with the use of a "Dark Muta-Stone." Characters resembled those in the original US cartoon series, but with very different personalities. The show was aimed at a much younger audience, and used many non-serious elements of Sentai and superhero comics. This show is considered non-canonical by the TMNT fanbase due to its shortness and scarcity. Here is the strange part: if the TMNT OVA cartoon is aimed at a much younger audience, why does it contain strong language ("you *person born by unmarried parents* " and "dumb*poo*, this is dumb*poo* " ) ? Is that kind of language considered "not explicit" in Japan?
