I found the thread - New Sci-Fi/Fantasy Hard Ticket Event?
Looks like it came from a rumor/guest survey.

The fact that we're STILL lumping all of Anime together as one cohesive thing is rather irritating
Pokemon seems like it has a decent shot, otherwise,
I don't see anything else having the mass cultural appeal of other properties that Universal would invest in and apply the Potter formula to
I'm not even sure any Anime's would even appear at HHN just yet
and I say niche not to disparage the genre, because it seems a lot of these pro-Anime discussions comes from trying to validate the genre instead of the logistics of it all. For example, Star Wars is huge here, but I wouldn't expect a theme park land in China. If USJ doesn't even have a permanent attraction for anime, why should we expect one here stateside?
Yes, Dr. Who is a good example as wellIronically part of what makes it niche is how dedicated its fanbase is. It seems there are no casual American anime fans, unlike say Star Wars or MCU. And to show it's not a generational thing, my closest analogy would be Gen X/early Millennials with Dr. Who. Clearly niche -- it aired on PBS then BBC America -- but a subset of American nerds obsessed over it. Was a perpetual wish list item for a theme park attraction or at least an HHN house. That said, while there may have been a Fathom events screening or two, never been a major motion picture. Which is probably the bare minimum to be included in UOR.
Would a Pokemon attraction/land be based more on the games or the show? I’d think games, so I don’t even know if it really counts as Anime.The fact that we're STILL lumping all of Anime together as one cohesive thing is rather irritating

That's a good point, I'm guessing the games probablyWould a Pokemon attraction/land be based more on the games or the show? I’d think games, so I don’t even know if it really counts as Anime.
Hmmmm, since you mentioned it I wonder if Pokemon is a backup replacement for MSHI in the unlikely event of contract issues. I don’t think it would be hard to reskin the attractions besides Spider-Man.That's a good point, I'm guessing the games probably
But honestly, if it were to come, I would imagine a lot of it would be Universal Creative original look
Like Pokemon City or something
Same relative aesthetic as MSHI

Again couldn’t they reskin Marvel Super Hero Island to a DC Comics inspired land considering that Uni’s working with Warner Bros.?

Even the original Dragon Ball manga is often censored here, luckily they re-released them uncut.It’s one of those things that should happen, but facing way too many roadblocks. Though popular and more so than before, I personally felt there are way too many anti-anime stances from the general public especially from all the political spectrums cause they don’t wanna get offended by any topics that are controversial here, which is one of the factors why US TV networks are afraid to air them on an everyday rotation no matter how popular it is.
