Seriously, who in the right mind that runs a network celebrates an entire day dedicated to some character that no one knows about? Come on, what about a Day of Doraemon? An entire day of ABS schedule time dedicated to Doraemon once every year? That's a great idea! You hear us: We're doing yet ANOTHER annual ABS anime day!

BTW, Anpanman is insanely popular in Japan. Hence the reason why we have the DoA. And the fact that he's unheard-of everywhere else is one of the reasons why we're now trying to make it a global event.
