Alright, raise of hands, who else thought that said Burger King at first glance?

Yeah, how come Tokyopop does such a great job with its manga but can't seem to show thier anime aquisitions any respect?

Personally, I would love to see a Burger King anime.

MAGICAL MONARCH BURGER KING!
This is the story of Burger-Oh, the benvolent ruler of a faraway land who abandons his royal duties in order to live out his lifelong dream of traveling the world, breaking into people's houses and then casually coming up to them and offering them meat products, all without saying a word. Since he is a forgien head of state, he has diplomatic immunity and thus has managed to avoid the countless prison sentances his actions would otherwise result in-so far. But that won't protect him from his own royal servant, The Whopper, who has been dispatched to bring him back to his kingdom at all costs, nor will it help him in his ongoing stuggles against the sinister Dark King Ronald, an evil clown who seeks to conquer the Burger Kingdom (with the help of his sidekick, the mishapen purple blob) and rule fast food forever! Can Burger-Oh stop shoving beef into strangers' faces long enough to defeat him and save the world? Or will Ronald succeed in his fiendish plot to ressurect the ghost of Dave Thomas and use his power to destroy everything? Find out this fall as Gonzo plans to spend like a billion dollars trying to make this nonesense look presentable.
