The Spinner Rack

It was previously revealed that "Supernatural" brothers Sam and Dean Winchester are bringing their never-ending battle against the forces of Hell to an animated project called "Supernatural The Animation," slated for release at some point in January of next year. Now, we might have an idea of what that project could look like.


Alleged concept art from the "Supernatural" anime has popped up online over at Saouri's Window, showing possible preliminary character sketches of the Winchester boys, played on the CW series by Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles. Official or not, it's still pretty wild to see Sam and Dean in illustrated form - really, if there was one currently airing live-action television series begging for an animated translation, it's "Supernatural." (Or "True Blood." Or "Fringe." Really, there are a bunch, but "Supernatural" is still a solid choice!)

According to Anime News, "Supernatural The Animation" is being produced by Japanese studio Madhouse and is co-directed by Shigeyuki Miya and Atsuko Ishizuka. "Supernatural" creator Eric Kripke will provide guidance on the series. The series will be released in two sets of 22 original episodes.
